Kash Patel Faces MAGA Criticism Over FBI Jet Use for Girlfriend's Show

News summary

FBI Director Kash Patel has faced intense criticism after using an FBI government jet to attend a wrestling event where his girlfriend, country singer Alexis Wilkins, performed the national anthem. Flight logs confirmed the FBI jet's trip coincided with Wilkins' performance at Penn State University and later flew to Nashville, sparking outrage amid a government shutdown. Patel vehemently defended his actions and his girlfriend, condemning the attacks as baseless and cowardly, and expressing frustration at so-called allies who remained silent. His spokesperson highlighted Patel's travel expenses as minimal compared to previous FBI leaders and noted he reimburses costs in advance. Critics, including former FBI agents and conservative commentators like Candace Owens, have mocked and questioned Patel's public defense of his girlfriend. Despite the backlash, Patel underscored his pride in the FBI's work and reaffirmed his commitment to family and national security.
