Renowned conservative podcaster and ex-Fox News personality Dan Bongino revealed distressing news to his audience on Friday. Bongino began his show by announcing to his listeners and viewers that he would be cutting it short due to the sudden passing of his mother.
“Folks, I’m going to end the show early today. I’m going to tell you what happened last night because I’m having a bit of a rough time, as you can tell. I’m going to try to get through this unexpectedly. She fell down a flight of stairs. And I found out at about 4:43 in the morning,” Bongino said.
Bongino continued to express how the encounter had deeply affected him in various aspects as he grappled with his sorrow.
“For those of you who don’t believe in God, I’m not here to judge you…But I want to tell you something. I want to tell you in advance, I’m not crazy, o.k.?” he said. “Someone grabbed me. Like hugged me. Like a mom.”
“I’m telling you, it was real. I actually jumped up. I know it sounds crazy, but I was looking for my gun. And I started looking around the house…” he told listeners.
“She called me Danny, the only one, no one else on planet Earth besides my mom. Calls me Danny, and now no one else does at all,” he recounted. “As I sat this morning, in my own shower, hunched over, kind of crying a little bit, I’ve never believed more in the power of Jesus.”
Bongino then concluded: “I’ll let you guys know about the show tomorrow…but obviously, I have to bury her, and my brothers and I, so we got some stuff to take care of.”
