According to recent reports, FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino is poised to make a major decision about his future within weeks. Multiple accounts indicate his office has been largely cleared of staff, with his chief of staff reportedly assuming a new leadership role in Baltimore.

Sources suggest Bongino informed several special agents in charge across the FBI’s 56 field offices that he would be leaving his position shortly. His Washington office was reported empty as of Friday evening, though an FBI spokesperson declined to comment on the matter.

Fox News reports citing two anonymous sources deny claims of an empty office but confirm Bongino is seriously weighing his next steps at the agency. A source familiar with the situation stated he has not yet finalized any decisions regarding his future role.

Bongino’s tenure has recently faced scrutiny alongside FBI Director Kash Patel, following a report from an alliance of active-duty and retired FBI personnel describing the bureau as directionless under current leadership. When questioned about reforms, Bongino told Fox News that expectations included backlash from “disgruntled former agents” loyal to prior leadership models.

The situation remains unresolved as reports conflict over the status of his office and timeline for departure.
