What was said

"I'll tell you what, I'll give you $100,000 cash right now. I'm not kidding. Walk out to the West Exec, put the reporter on speaker, and get him to admit I leaked it to him."

In a tense Situation Room confrontation, Dan Bongino responded to Chief of Staff Susie Wiles' accusation that he leaked Epstein information to ABC News by offering $100,000 in cash to prove his innocence. When pressed to commit to the administration's strategy going forward, Bongino refused and stormed out, later staying only at the urging of advisors who feared his resignation would damage Trump.
