“I’ve been told many times in my life, ‘When you find yourself in a hole, sometimes it’s best to quit digging.’”
Despite his exit, Dennehy vowed to continue defending the FBI from the outside.
“Screw that. I will never stop defending this joint. I’ll just do it willingly and proudly from outside the wire,” he added.
His departure didn’t happen in a vacuum. Bondi, who oversees the FBI, had been hyping the Epstein files for days. But when they were finally made public, they turned out to be a major letdown—just 200 pages of flight logs and documents that had already been released a decade ago.
It wasn’t what Americans were expecting. And it certainly wasn’t what Trump supporters were promised.
Bondi faced immediate outrage for the fiasco. But instead of backing down, she turned her fire on the FBI, exposing what she said was a shocking cover-up.
In a letter to FBI Director Kash Patel, Bondi laid out her case. She accused the New York Field Office of withholding critical documents and misleading her about the true extent of Epstein-related files.
“Late yesterday, I learned from a source that the FBI Field Office in New York was in possession of thousands of pages of documents related to the investigation and the indictment of Epstein,” Bondi wrote. “Despite my repeated requests, the FBI never disclosed the existence of these files.”
It didn’t take long for Dennehy to become the scapegoat. His past actions made him an easy target—especially given his history of resisting Trump’s efforts to clean house at the FBI.
When acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove ordered the removal of FBI agents involved in the January 6 and Mar-a-Lago investigations, Dennehy publicly positioned himself against Trump’s agenda.
“Today, we find ourselves in the middle of a battle of our own, as good people are being walked out of the F.B.I. and others are being targeted because they did their jobs in accordance with the law and F.B.I. policy,” Dennehy wrote in an email.

But that was just the beginning. As Trump vowed to purge the FBI of deep-state operatives, Dennehy made it clear he wouldn’t back down.
“Time for me to dig in,” he declared.
That stance may have sealed his fate.
Bondi, already facing backlash over the Epstein file debacle, saw an opportunity. And she took it. If the FBI was still working against Trump, she wasn’t going to let them do it quietly.
Dennehy is now out. But the fallout from the Epstein files is far from over.
