Dan Bongino took a flamethrower to Chris Cuomo over an X post about the Epstein files.
The former deputy director of the FBI did not mince words in a social media exchange with the NewsNation host, and he brought receipts to the party. It started when Bongino posted that he was still waiting for Tucker Carlson to provide evidence that Bongino said “President Trump shut down the investigation into Butler.”
Look:
As we all anxiously wait for Tucker to produce a single piece of evidence for any of his psychotic claims, I sense a growing rage amongst his shrinking number of groupies.

“As we all anxiously wait for Tucker to produce a single piece of evidence for any of his psychotic claims, I sense a growing rage amongst his shrinking number of groupies. They must know by now that they’ve been played. They’ve invested their time in a circus clown who has backed himself in a corner. So rather than admit they got played, they rage out and claw at their own faces while emptying themselves into their pull-up diapers. It’s a sad thing to witness. The doomers and grifters are all being exposed,” he wrote.
Cuomo reposted the message, turning the conversation to the Epstein files.
Look:
Help me get why ANY of you are ok with bongino saying this after he did you dirty on epstein? https://t.co/EAhG0p42eD

It didn’t take long for Bongino to fire back, with attached screenshots revealing that, despite bashing him publicly, Cuomo’s people had desperately tried to get him to sit down for the show.
Look:
Did you dirty? What the fuck are you talking about? I busted my ass on that case. Did you miss that entire news cycle?
Remember when you kissed my ass when I saw at the UFC? Remember your people begging me to be on your shitty show? (Receipts attached). You’re a fraud. Go back… pic.twitter.com/XacP1XXl3n— Dan Bongino (@dbongino) July 6, 2026
“Did you dirty? What the f**k are you talking about? I busted my ass on that case. Did you miss that entire news cycle? Remember when you kissed my ass when I saw [you] at the UFC? Remember your people begging me to be on your shi**y show? (Receipts attached). You’re a fraud. Go back to posing naked in your backyard while playing with life sized Q-Tips with your brother,” he wrote.
The attached screenshot appears to show texts that Bongino never replied to.
“Hey dan- don’t want to keep blowing you up if you aren’t interested but I wanna get you on with Chris Cuomo,” one message reads. “Can we chat find a night to have you speak to him?”
“Hey dan- lemme know when we can chat RE: CUOMO,” reads a text from 12 days later. “Want to make this convo happen!”
“Dan! Saw the fox intv last night. want to get you with Cuomo. Can we do next week?” reads a third message four days later. “Or tonight? On lemon??”
X users reacted:
Cuomo is such an engagement whore. He’s so full of it.

Poor Fredo, how’s he going to explain that Bongino handprint on his face?

Why did Cuomo rush in to deflect from Tucker?

Cuomo is a slimy individual. He oozes down the path of least resistance and what it is popular at the time. Chameleon
