FBI Director Kash Patel Refutes "Baseless" Israeli Spy Allegations About Girlfriend Alexis Wilkins

FBI Director Kash Patel has strongly defended his girlfriend Alexis Wilkins against allegations of being an Israeli spy, calling the accusations "disgustingly baseless." The controversy emerged after claims that Patel misused a government jet to attend Wilkins' performance, which the FBI has officially stated followed all required regulations. Wilkins, a country music singer, has filed a $5 million defamation lawsuit against the podcaster who made these claims.

"Disgustingly Baseless": Kash Patel On Girlfriend Being Called Israeli Spy

FBI's Kash Patel has strongly defended his girlfriend Alexis Wilkins, describing her as a "true patriot" amid allegations that have surfaced against her.

FBI Director Kash Patel has firmly rejected accusations that he utilized a government aircraft to attend his girlfriend Alexis Wilkins' musical performance, labeling the attacks against her as both "cowardly" and "a total disgrace."

The situation erupted after Kyle Seraphin, a former FBI agent and conservative commentator, alleged on his podcast that Patel had used an FBI jet valued at $60 million to travel to Nashville on October 25 to witness Wilkins perform at a wrestling event. Seraphin went further by claiming Wilkins was a "honeypot" operative working for Israeli intelligence, an assertion that Patel has categorically denied.

"The disgustingly baseless attacks against Alexis — a true patriot and the woman I'm proud to call my partner in life — are beyond pathetic," Patel stated on X. "She is a rock-solid conservative and a country music sensation who has done more for this nation than most will in ten lifetimes. I'm so blessed she's in my life."

"Attacking her isn't just wrong — it's cowardly and jeopardises our safety. My love of family will always be my cornerstone, and you will never tear that down or keep me from them," he further remarked.

Addressing his role as FBI Director, Patel emphasized that he and the Bureau would continue to focus on "taking violent criminals off the streets, crushing the fentanyl crisis, dismantling cartels, saving children, and hunting down terrorists."

"I am proud of the work of this FBI. Let me be clear: we will not be distracted by baseless rumours or the noise from uninformed internet anarchists and the fake news," he added.

In response to Seraphin's allegation that Wilkins was a "former Mossad agent" sent to entrap Patel, the country singer has initiated a $5 million defamation lawsuit against the conservative podcaster.

Following the viral spread of the podcast, the FBI released a statement clarifying that no regulations had been violated. The agency confirmed that Patel's travel "followed all required regulations."

Ben Williamson, who serves as the FBI's Assistant Director for Public Affairs, also defended Patel's actions. In a post on X, he stated that the "Director's use of government aircraft fully complies with federal law," describing the controversy as "disingenuous and dumb."
