Dan Bongino, born on December 4, 1974, in New York, began his law enforcement career with the NYPD and then worked for the United States Secret Service, guarding Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama. In 2011, he moved into the media, where he became known for his conservative beliefs. His works, including Life Inside the Bubble and The Dan Bongino Show, bolstered his standing in conservative circles.
Even after receiving a diagnosis of Hodgkin lymphoma in 2020, Bongino continued to be active and vocal. Many were surprised when he quit Fox News in 2023 owing to contract conflicts. Nevertheless, his impact lives on through his podcast and social media, where he continues to engage his fans.
