The *men* of MAGA do it again. What was it that Anthony Scaramucci said, “The fish rots from the head down?” The fish never stop complaining, beginning with the orange whale running the entire school, is more how it actually shakes down. Dan Bongino would have you know that he’s a macho macho man. Or at least he wants to be a macho man. No, strike that. What he really wants is to be thought of as a macho man. That goes for all of them. Bongino took to Twit/X today to get out in front of a New York Times article about him. The article depicts Bongino as less than a superb physical speciman. If Bongino had any brains, he wouldn’t have opened his mouth. Now it’s the Streisand Effect, telling people it’s not real is having the effect of focusing all eyeballs on the story.
You see the lay of the land here, that Bongino is a real man, a he man and the mere journalist is a wimp. But the real story is that Bongino even gives the proverbial rat’s ass about having an injury. So what? I do not know of a single person who ever worked out at a gym, ridden a horse, ran a marathon, you name it, where s/he didn’t pull a muscle, get thrown off in the dirt, perform imperfectly in some way. That goes with the territory. What the people with mettle do is get up, brush themselves off, and get back in the game. If they have to take a few days off to heal, so be it.
And to feel that one has to apologize for an injury is simply laughable. Only in Trump world. Only in the world where the charismatic cult leader has had a book written about how he cheats at golf.
All the boot-lickers are mad that shit on Dan… this bro is the epitome of a pussy who talks shit on a pod cast, just to own the libs, and acts like he’s a serious person. He’s not. He’s a conspiracy douche bag. pic.twitter.com/7C9dYpMzt3

This is what we’ve got helming the Federal Bureau Of Investigation. Has anybody heard from Kash Patel lately? The last public outing I remember was him telling Congress that he didn’t know anything about the SignalGate debacle. That was yet another incident where the villain ended up being the journalist — until it became so blatant that the entire Trump-appointed *intelligence* community had collectively dropped the ball.
I wonder if Bongino does anything at the FBI other than take up the time of trained professionals so that he can feel important? Mightn’t it be better to dig into the caseloads and do some impressive investigations? Nah. That’s too real world and we’re talking a MAGA appointee here.
Thanks for the heads up, Dan. Now the entire internet is waiting with bated breath for the piece to drop to see what a wuss you are. My best advice is that you go on Twitter and delete the post, although it’s already been screenshotted here and elsewhere, so there’s that. Maybe next time don’t panic over nothing. But when you’re a narcissist, that’s easier said than done.
Bruised elbow AND bruised ego. He bravely takes the hits, walking in dangerous streets on our behalf. Respect.
do people say grappling? and don’t you know that all these magas are thoroughly trained for any type of combat? haven’t you seen the videos? the one with the guys in the silly hats running back and forth in the smoke is my favorite. guys like him don’t get hurt, mostly because they don’t actually do anything. except grapple with each other. also, I’m pretty sure his actual job is administrative, not investigating or going out in the field. he has no idea how to do his job, or what it entails, so he does this instead.
as for my recent lack of engagement here, and all the pain I have been in, I do not deny it or apologize for it. it’s my problem no one else’s. yesterday I came home from the hospital after almost four weeks. l was one place where they decided I needed heart surgery but being very high risk they sent me some where better equipped to keep me alive. twelve days ago I had a triple bypass plus aortic valve replacement and some other stuff. followed later by installation of a pacemaker. all of scared the crap out of me. they had me on my feet in three days and kicked me out of rehab yesterday. luckily I had someone I can stay with for a couple of weeks till I’m able to move back onto my boat. not apologizing for getting my ass kicked, not liking feeling like I was hit by a truck or anything else. except maybe being damn proud of not having a checkup In 45 years.
Sounds like hell. God speed on your recovery. You’ll be on your feet long before our republic returns.
Hopefully, healthwise, that’s the worst over. Keep bobbing along from now on. Hopefully, the same applies to us all, except we don’t have competent medics in charge as you had.
🤠Tee freakin’ hee! Kristi Noem cosplays on the US border and in foreign dungeons because it is easier than doing her job! Dan Bongino cosplays like he’s still in a police uniform instead of being in a difficult management job!
My favorite cosplayer, though, is Alina Habba! She always cosplayed as an attorney. She screwed up every case she handled for Trump and cost him money and convictions. Then, for the briefest of times, she got to cosplay White House advisor. When Trump told her to go be Acting US Attorney for New Jersey, she jumped on the “acting,” i.e. cosplay, part of the job because she doesn’t know what prosecutors do!!
She immediately put on a Kevlar vest and went out with police agencies rounding up perps who had violated their Federal probation.
Good move, Alina Hubba-hubba! You have now given every one of the real lawyers for these criminals a good case for dismissal of charges or your recusal as the prosecutor in the case! And, A.H., you took with your second-chair with you on your play date, so either let them all go or hire a Special Prosecutor!! 🤣🤣
I get the feeling this “Confederacy of Dunces” wasn’t hired on merit!! 🤪🤪
Great Book, and the quote about recognizing true genius is spot on. I wish he hadn’t killed himself, but thanks to a PROFESSOR who read a manuscript a mother brought him, that her son left behind, a great book was born.
Adam is New Yorker, which means he’s tough. He takes the subway and walks home at night. I bet the last time Bongino was in danger was when he nearly choked on a Filet-o-Fish with his good buddy Donnie
He’s faced risks…infection from the tattoo needle, sunburn by the pool under guard by armed agents, etc. The man has seen it all.
Anyone who says, “that’s what men do” after sustaining an injury while ‘grappling’ doesn’t have anything to say that I want to hear. It may be what men do, but only posers and jackasses say it.
