Report: Kash Patel Allegedly Yelled at Protective Agent to Drive His Girlfriend’s Intoxicated Friend Home

MS Now reports that FBI Director Kash Patel allegedly pressured agents assigned to protect his girlfriend, Alexis Wilkins, to drive an intoxicated friend home — reportedly calling and yelling at the detail leader when agents objected. Wilkins was said to have been given a private FBI security detail that included former Nashville SWAT members. The allegations spurred internal concern about use of FBI resources; the bureau's spokesperson denied the claims as "made up."

Report: Patel Allegedly Pressured Agents To Run Personal Errands

A recent report by MS Now alleges that FBI Director Kash Patel pressured agents assigned to protect his girlfriend, country singer Alexis Wilkins, to drive one of her intoxicated friends home after a night out. According to the outlet, the requests occurred on multiple occasions and in at least one instance Patel reportedly called the leader of Wilkins' security detail and yelled at him to comply.

What Was Reported

MS Now wrote last month that Wilkins — who was reported to be living in Nashville at the time and not cohabiting with Patel — received a private security detail drawn from agents who had previously served on a Nashville SWAT team. Source accounts in the story said Wilkins asked agents on her detail at least twice, including once this spring, to drive an intoxicated friend home. The agents reportedly objected, saying such tasks would divert them from their protective assignment; the report says Patel insisted they do so.

Allegation: "Patel’s girlfriend ... asked FBI agents on her security team at least two times ... to drive her friend home, and agents objected ... But Patel insisted they do as Wilkins requested and in one case called the leader of Wilkins’ security detail and yelled at him to do so." — MS Now (as quoted in the report)

Internal Reaction And Concerns

MS Now said the matter has circulated within the FBI, where some agents expressed concern about the use of already strained bureau resources for what they view as personal errands. Sources in the report were granted anonymity to discuss nonpublic matters.

Response From The FBI

The outlet said it contacted FBI spokesperson Ben Williamson, who dismissed the account as "made up" and stated the alleged events "did not happen."

Context And Notes

These allegations were reported by MS Now and have not been independently verified in this article. The report centers on claims about the use of protective personnel and whether such resources were diverted to nonofficial tasks. The bureau's public denial is included in the account.

Why this matters: If accurate, the claims raise questions about the boundaries between official protective duties and personal requests, as well as oversight of how limited federal security resources are allocated.
