"It’s been an incredible year thanks to the leadership and decisiveness of President Trump," Bongino wrote on X Saturday. "It was the honor of a lifetime to work with Director [Kash] Patel, and to serve you, the American people. See you on the other side."
Bongino made the announcement he was leaving last month, thanking Trump, Patel and U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi "for the opportunity to serve with purpose."

Bongino didn’t give a reason for his resignation less than a year after he started as deputy director, but Trump said last month the 51-year-old "wants to go back to his show."
