According to a new report from News Nation, FBI director Kash Patel used a government jet to travel to see his girlfriend, Alexis Wilkins perform at Saturday’s Real American Freestyle wrestling event, which took place at Penn State University.
Wilkins posted pictures on social media of herself and Patel at the event.
News Nation also notes that flight records show the government plane, which is registered to the Department of Justice, departed from Manassas Regional Airport in Virginia to State College Regional Airport. It was further added that almost two and a half hours later, the jet departed from State College for Nashville, where Wilkins resides.
As FBI Director, Patel is required only to use a government aircraft for travel so he can have access to secure communications equipment. Furthermore, it is also mandatory for directors to reimburse the United States government for using the plane for personal reasons at the price of a commercial ticket.
Earlier this year, Patel also received negative attention in the news after gifting New Zealand officials with inoperable 3D-printed pistols that were illegal to possess under local gun laws.
Real American Freestyle Wrestling was founded earlier this year by late WWE Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan. Fellow WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff serves as Chief Marketing Officer.
