Dan Bongino Declares War On “Blackpillers” In First Post After Leaving The FBI
Dan Bongino has officially left the FBI after roughly one year as Deputy Attorney General, serving alongside Kash Patel.
And he didn’t waste any time lobbing some haymakers up on X.
Oh my….
Here was his first post:
Good to see you all. I missed you.
— Dan Bongino (@dbongino) January 5, 2026
Thanks for everything while we worked on cleaning up. Working in the administration was the experience of a lifetime. I’ll have some announcements coming up but I’m taking a couple of days to spend with the family.
A couple of things:
-Thank…

Thanks for everything while we worked on cleaning up. Working in the administration was the experience of a lifetime. I’ll have some announcements coming up but I’m taking a couple of days to spend with the family.
A couple of things:
-Thank you for your interest in the show and its return date. We will have something for you soon.
-The Trump team is not kidding around. It’s an otherworldly experience from the other side. He’s determined and focused. And having been around quite a few Presidents, this one broke the mold.
-If we blocked you, it’s because we care so little about your bullshit that we deem it not worthy of even seeing.
If you’re bitching and whining about it that means you can’t exist without seeing and commenting on ours. You’ll need to get over that.
We do it because there’s nothing black-pillers and anti-Trumpers want more than to create division and drama. We’re about results, and we’ll talk about some of it soon.Love you all, and thanks again.

What in the world is a “blackpill” and who are “black-pillers”?
The Blackpill: An Overview
The blackpill is a nihilistic internet ideology primarily associated with incel (involuntary celibate) communities. It posits that a person’s success in romantic and sexual relationships—particularly for men—is overwhelmingly determined by unchangeable physical attributes, such as facial structure, height, and overall attractiveness, rather than personality, effort, status, or self-improvement.
Core Beliefs
Adherents (“blackpillers”) believe:
- Hypergamy: Women are inherently hypergamous (seeking partners of higher status or attractiveness).
- Genetic Hierarchy: Modern dating dynamics favor a small minority of genetically “superior” men (often called “Chads”).
- Fatalism: Average or below-average men are doomed to rejection and celibacy, with no realistic path to change their outcomes.
This leads to a worldview of fatalism: “it’s over” for most men in the dating market, and broader life successes are also heavily constrained by these genetic factors.
Origins and Context
The term emerged in the 2010s on incel-related blogs and forums (e.g., Omega Virgin Revolt) as an extension of the “red pill” metaphor from The Matrix (1999), where the red pill represents awakening to harsh truths.
In broader “manosphere” communities, the red pill often emphasizes that men can improve their chances through self-development (e.g., fitness, confidence, social skills). The blackpill rejects this optimism, viewing such efforts as futile delusions (“cope”).
Blackpillers
Blackpillers are individuals who accept this ideology, often self-identifying in online spaces. They may experience profound despair, leading to withdrawal (“LDAR” or “lie down and rot”), coping mechanisms, or in extreme cases, resentment toward women, society, or “normies” (average people).
The ideology is criticized as:
- Misogynistic
- Pseudoscientific: Relying on selective interpretations of studies on attractiveness and dating.
- Linked to mental health issues or rare instances of violence (e.g., references to figures like Elliot Rodger).
Critics argue it oversimplifies human relationships, promotes victimhood, and ignores factors like personality, compatibility, and mutual effort.
It seems like Dan Bongino exited the FBI in a very pissed-off attitude and he’s not suffering fools kindly!
Some kind of bee really got up his bonnet!
But he wasn’t done yet…
He followed that up with this, calling out the “haters” and “zeroes”:
Let me add this, from the jump, so there’s NO confusion. I started in this movement as a candidate during the Tea Party movement, and I began my political commentary career shortly thereafter.

Let me add this, from the jump, so there’s NO confusion. I started in this movement as a candidate during the Tea Party movement, and I began my political commentary career shortly thereafter. I helped build this movement and I sure as hell am not going to let it get hijacked by a group of black-pillers, life-losers, grifters and bums.
We are a movement guided by truth. The essence of conservative ideology is the preservation of eternal truths. We are not the “latest thing” group. We are not political cannibals. I’ve watched quietly from the inside while doing the job I was hired to do, but I’m back now, and it’s time to restore balance to the force (that one was for Gui).
As we get ready to make some announcements about the future of the show, I also want to warn the haters and the zeroes – we’ve been at this a long time. We live for this stuff. This isn’t our first, second or tenth rodeo. We’ve seen a lot dipshits come and go. We revel in making you angry enough to show your asses. It’s glorious.
We’ve got midterms coming up, and there’s no time for bullshit. This administration is cooking and REAL change simmers. If you’re spending your entire day bitching and whining with 3/4ths of the term still to go, then please find the exits. There’s no time for it. It’s not “infighting” when you excise a cancer killing the host. It’s “outfighting” because you’re not part of any movement I’m familiar with.
Looking forward to big things ahead. Can’t wait to tell you about it.
-Dan
Dan, my man, we like you!
We’re glad you’re back.
But take a chill pill for a hot second, ok?
If this is any indication of how his first show back is going to be, it looks like it’s going to be full-blown RED ASS!
Buckle up!
