Dan Bongino, the former Secret Service agent turned pro-Trump pundit, will no longer have a show on NRATV, the National Rifle Association’s streaming video channel, the Daily Beast first reported Monday.

Two unnamed sources “with knowledge of the decision” told the Daily Beast that Bongino had been dropped from NRATV. Bongino, though he did not respond to a request for comment for the story, responded on Twitter quickly after it was published, saying he had decided not to accept NRATV’s offer to renew with his show, “We Stand.”

The Daily Beast stood by its reporting.

Bongino’s show lasted just a few months. The commentator, who unsuccessfully ran for Congress three times, is known for his at times explosive anger.

    As opposed to Trump, who is known for his explosive diarrhea.

  5. Guess they found someone to fill his slot who would work for free. NRA ain’t exactly flush these days.
