Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy and podcast host Dan Bongino broke out in an online catfight after the former posted his hot take response to Roe v Wade being overturned by the Supreme Court on Friday.
The two reportedly have shared a decade-long friendship that may have been flushed down the toilet in less than a handful of tweets in response to the high court’s 5-4 decision on Dobbs v Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which gave power over abortions back to the people.
“To me this is just pure insanity, pure insanity,” Portnoy said in his “emergency” press conference posted to Twitter on Friday where he claimed, “we are literally going backwards in time.”
Bongino called the sports media company president out on Twitter for his rambling response to the ruling.
“Horrifyingly uninformed and ridiculous take. Embarrassed you would put this out there,” Bongino wrote as you could almost see him shaking his head in disgust.
Horrifyingly uninformed and ridiculous take. Embarrassed you would put this out there.

Portnoy pounced back in the online exchange with a Kingpin GIF.

Bongino launched back a string of insults starting by calling him a “grifter p#%^*y” and a “tool.”
Dude didn’t respond with a Kingpin gif when I defended this tool against Business Insider. Just another grifter p#%^*y who showed his ass. https://t.co/2NuHjAGD7u

Caution: Adult language —
“This was to be expected but I still get a kick out of people who have sucked my dick for a decade straight, invited me on their shows a million times and now disagree with me on RoeVsWade and suddenly Im a pussy and idiot,” Portnoy shot back, including a soundbite of Bongino previously praising him along with a video montage of the social media exchange.

Bongino shrugged it off:
I still get a kick out of defending people like this pu%^*y against the same lib lunatics he desperately craves the acceptance of. It’s called “principles” chump. Try it sometime. Go put your dog chain back on dipshit. https://t.co/evduVoF7n5

But then he launched one more verbal grenade.
Appears the only people doing that for you are wearing dog callers. Go get your leash chump. Bow wow.

“Federal Crime Dan,” Portnoy responded.

True to his word, Bongino invited Portnoy on his show this week to defend his pro-abortion stance.
You’re welcome on my radio show this week to defend your stance precisely because I believe in free speech. It’s why I so vigorously defended you in the past. And I’d do so again in the future. However, it’s obvious we’re not going to be smoking a peace pipe on this.
