Former FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino lashed out at right-wing podcaster Candace Owens for an upcoming broadcast that was expected to suggest Erika Kirk was linked to the death of her husband, Charlie Kirk."I don't know what to call it," Bongino said on his Tuesday podcast. "Some production Candace Owens is putting together, an investigative series. ... This just can't be what this movement is. And if it is, I don't want any part of it.""No human being deserves this," he continued. "I can't any longer look at this like this is some form of infighting. This is not part of any movement that I want to be part of."Bongino became emotional as he recalled Charlie Kirk's death."Erika didn't choose this, man," he said. "Then you got to go through this. Then you got a bunch of you know, absolute ... lunatics sending her emails. You did it! Comments, tweets."The former FBI official insisted that Owens and others who blamed Erika Kirk "deserve to feel the little licks of the flames of hell on every inch of your body.""If there's an afterlife, oh, and I believe there is, I believe in the second creation," he remarked. "I don't pretend to be the judge and jury, but I know you're not in it. ... Some people, and that is a majority of us, hate your guts. We don't want you. You were the spawn of Satan. I promise your parents, alive or dead, are looking at you now in horror that they spawned a demon. Your last name will live in infamy. Your kids will deny knowing you. I don't want anything to do with you.""Just go away," he added. "I know you can't because you have to spread your cancer everywhere."

Donald Trump's words have come back to haunt him as Jon Stewart ripped into the president for a claim he made last year.The president bragged about Iran's nuclear capabilities being "totally obliterated" in June 2025 — but it seems the threat is still very real, Stewart said Monday. Steve Witkoff, the United States' Special Envoy to the Middle East, is now claiming Iran is just a week away from having "bomb-making capabilities," despite the strikes.The talk show host grilled the president's team on these claims, questioning whether the public should believe what the administration claims about Iran. Stewart said, "I remember Trump saying we 'totally obliterated their nuclear program,' yelling at people who questioned it."Which makes me wonder, how obliterated was it?" A clip of Trump saying Iran's nuclear capabilities were "obliterated like nobody has ever seen before" was then played.Stewart continued, "So the kind of obliteration that, somehow, rebliterates? Almost immediately? No one has ever seen that before. So is our plan now to re-obliterate their nuclear program every few months? Or is there a longer-term strategy?"Our peace through strength will force Iran, let's call it, an Iran nuclear deal. I think I remember that phrase from when we made a nuclear deal with Iran. Whatever happened to that?" A clip of Trump confirming the US had withdrawn from the Iran nuclear deal then plays.An expert previously told Raw Story that Trump's plan for Iran is unpredictable. Professor Anthony Glees said, "It is not at all clear what would happen if Trump decided to take on the Islamist rulers of Iran. By toppling Maduro but replacing him with someone from his side of the political divide in Venezuela, Trump showed a canniness of some quality."However, he can't do this in Iran. There are no US-friendly ayatollahs. It is, however, perfectly possible that he will run out of road and be forced into military action."
