FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino opened up about investigations surrounding the assassination attempts against President Donald Trump, saying more info will soon be forthcoming.
“How come we don’t have more information on the assassination attempts on President Trump?” asked Fox News Sunday Morning Futures’ Maria Bartiromo.
Patel replied: “There’s two reasons, two open ongoing prosecutions. So, two of the investigations are obviously closed because the individuals are dead, but there’s two live prosecutions. And so we can’t get ahead of the federal court case. A lot of that information will come out in the federal court cases, but we have personally invested our time in making sure that we have looked at all the any possible international connections to terrorism and adversaries alike. And we’ve both been down to Quantico, we’ve both done the laboratory testing, we’ve both seen the explosive analysis, we’ve both seen the firearm and physically held it. We are all-in on these investigations.”
“Are we going to be surprised at what you learned?” asked Bartiromo.
Bongino responded that, while he can’t reveal more, there does not appear to be a big bombshell in the information so far.
“You know what Maria, Kash is not kidding, we’ve been personally briefed extensively on every single detail nugget tendril of this case,” Bongino answered, adding, “One is actively in court right now, so out of respect for the case, it’s probably more appropriate that I stay quiet on that.”
“However, I’m not going to tell people what they want to hear, I’m going to tell you the truth, and whether you like it or not is up to you. If there was a big explosive ‘there’ there, right? Given my history as a Secret Service agent, and my personal friendship as a director does with the president, give me one logical sensible reason we would not have to… if you can think of one. There isn’t. There isn’t. There…in some of these cases, the ‘there’ you’re looking for is not there. And I know people, I get it, I understand, it’s not there. If it was there, we would have told you.”
Trump recently discussed inquiries into his assassination attempts in an interview with Fox News’ Bret Baier, saying, “I’m relying on my people to tell me, you know, clever people…the Secret Service, but they tell me it’s fine. He added “It’s hard to believe” there’s not more information available.

BREAKING: In a bizarre moment, Donald Trump seems utterly lost and completely unable to put together a coherent sentence when asked by Bret Baier about the investigation into the assassination attempt.
He is cognitively gone.
Elsewhere in the interview, the FBI director and deputy director doubled down on claims Jeffrey Epstein killed himself inside his NY Metropolitan Correctional Center cell, contrary to beliefs he was murdered behind bars to silence him.
“They have a right to their opinion,” Patel said.
“But as someone who’s been a public defender, a prosecutor, who’s worked in that prison system and been inside segregated housing——you know a suicide when you see one. And that’s what that was,” Patel told Bartiromo.
“Again, you want me to—I’ve seen the whole file…He killed himself,” Bongino added.
