WASHINGTON (TNND) — The FBI is looking into a number of cases related to 'potential public corruption.' The agency's deputy director, Dan Bongino, made the announcement on X Monday, writing that the agency is either reopening or shifting resources towards the cases.
We made the decision to either re-open, or push additional resources and investigative attention, to these cases," Bongino wrote on X.
In the post, Bongino shared which cases will be looked into first. The DC pipe bombing investigation from 2021, the cocaine discovery during the Biden administration, and the leak of the Supreme Court's Dobbs case.
Investigations political analyst Madeline Summerville believes it could help win back American confidence.
Let's restore trust into the FBI by getting answers to questions that the people want," said Summerville.
Earlier this month, Bongino and FBI Director Kash Patel sat down for their first joint interview with Fox News. Both directly addressed their plan to rebuild trust in the FBI.
First of all, our priorities. Simple. Crush violent crime. Defend the homeland. Rigorous organizational accountability," Patel said. "I know when Kash & I are sitting there in the morning, that is the single motivating factor for us is keeping the homeland safe," added Bongino.
But while these investigations could be a step in the right direction, Summerville notes they could also be a way to detract attention from other pressing topics.
It's part of his attempt to both restore trust and to divert attention away from the problems that they're having with passing the 'big beautiful bill,' Summerville said.
Bongino added in his post that he has been receiving briefings on each of these cases every week and that the agency is making progress. He also urged anyone with information to contact the FBI.
