It looks like FBI Director Kash Patel and soon-to-be Deputy Director Dan Bongino are going to be very busy.
Bongino was just named and he's likely going to have to hit the ground running. The media is already trying to do their negative thing against him.

BREAKING: Dan Bongino Lands Plum Role in the Trump Administration
But we now may now one of the first things they're looking into and it's a big thing.
The FBI has now reportedly opened an investigation into a "honey pot" operation that was launched against Donald Trump in 2015. According to the Washington Times, a whistleblower revealed to the House Judiciary Committee in a protected disclosure that this was an "off-the-books" action run by then-FBI Director James Comey.
According to the whistleblower, two female FBI undercover employees infiltrated Mr. Trump’s 2016 campaign at high levels and were directed to act as “honeypots” while traveling with Mr. Trump and his campaign staff.
The Patel-led FBI is now looking for the two women undercover operatives.
This was not part of Crossfire Hurricane, this was reportedly a different operation.
The whistleblower agent “personally knew” that Mr. Comey ordered an FBI investigation into Mr. Trump and that Mr. Comey “personally directed it,” according to the disclosure.
The investigation did not appear to target a specific crime but was more of what agents would describe as a fishing expedition to find anything incriminating that could be used against Mr. Trump.
The whistleblower said the undercover operation was obscured from Justice Department Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz, who investigated misconduct in the bureau’s probe of the Trump campaign.
“The case had no predicated foundation, so Comey personally directed the investigation without creating an official case file in Sentinel or any other FBI system,” according to the whistleblower’s disclosure.
Oh, my, that sounds like it opens up a whole lot of questions.
According to the Times, one media outlet had a picture of one of the women, but then the FBI told them it was an FBI informant who would be killed if they published the picture. That's pretty vile and manipulative, if true. The operation was shut down after this.
Now, according to the report, one of the people is at the CIA (yikes) and the other got a promotion is now a "high-level FBI executive in a major field office."
The whistleblower also revealed that FBI employees were warned against talking about this operation with anyone, which the whistleblower took as a threat.
It sounds like finally, we're going to start seeing some accountability. It can't be too hard to find the two people, given the information that they have on their present positions. They likely have a lot of information to offer on the matter. If it is true that there was no predicate for launching the operation, that's potentially problematic, particularly when it involves a presidential campaign.
Comey was very concerned about Trump winning in 2024, as he urged people to get out and voted for Biden (before Biden dropped out).
