A whistleblower is claiming that FBI agents were delayed in arriving to major crime scenes, such as the far-right activist Charlie Kirk’s assassination, because FBI Director Kash Patel frequently uses the agency’s private jets. In a statement, Democratic Senator Dick Durbin said, “Since his confirmation as Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Kash Patel has seemingly engaged in what amounts to irresponsible joyriding on DOJ and FBI-operated aircraft at the expense of the American taxpayer and to the detriment of ongoing Bureau operations.” Patel had used an FBI jet to travel to the Milan Olympics to attend the men’s hockey final, where he was filmed chugging beer in the U.S. team’s locker room.
