Current and former officials within the Federal Bureau of Investigations have voiced deep concerns about Director Kash Patel's leadership, citing a pattern of prioritizing optics and personal interests over core investigative work. Reports allege that Patel has reassigned agents to immigration enforcement, used government resources for personal travel with his country singer girlfriend, and pushed for social events over official meetings, including during high-level international conferences. Patel's girlfriend, Alexis Wilkins, has also drawn scrutiny for her involvement and expenses, fueling both controversy and conspiracy theories within the bureau.
The handling of the high-profile assassination of conservative figure Charlie Kirk further intensified criticism, with insiders claiming Patel and his deputy focused more on social media strategy than the investigation itself. Despite mounting internal dissatisfaction and rumors of his potential replacement, President Donald Trump has publicly defended Patel, insisting he is 'doing a great job.' The Federal Bureau of Investigations has not commented on the allegations.
