Former Fox News star Dan Bongino announced on Friday he would be ending his show early because of a family tragedy.
Addressing his fans, the conservative podcaster shared the sad news of his mother’s passing.
“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.
The radio host opened up about startling experience he had in the middle of the night, right before he received the tragic news of losing his mother.
“For those of you who don’t believe in God, I’m not here to judge you,” Bongino said. “But I want to tell you something. I want to tell you in advance, I’m not crazy, OK?”
As he explained, at around 3 a.m. he felt like someone grabbing him. “Like hugged me. Like a mom,” he said of the experience that occurred around the time his mother passed away.
The host opened up about his struggles sleeping, explaining that he had gone to the kitchen to grab some water, and that’s when the supernatural experience took place.
“It was real,” Bongino continued. “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.”
The host finished by saying that he had never believed in Jesus more.
