Kash Patel’s litigious country singing girlfriend Alexis Wilkins is apparently making MAGA fans lose their minds.
The Trump team and allies aren't bothered by his pricey private jet escapades to see Alexis Wilkins perform in Nashville or an expensive Texas hunting trip, The Bulwark reported Thursday. Something — or someone — else is actually driving them insane.
"Instead, they are getting fed up with Wilkins’s penchant for suing conservative commentators over their claims that she’s an Israeli intelligence 'honeypot' who’s only dating Patel to control him on behalf of the Mossad," according to the outlet.
Those claims are unsubstantiated, and "the honeypot accusations got worse when the Justice Department, with Patel’s participation, abruptly decided to stop releasing Epstein files."
"The Mossad connection to Wilkins is thin, even by the standards of right-wing media conspiracy theories. For one, Wilkins is a Christian. Still, her critics have seized on her work for right-wing content outlet PragerU, whose CEO worked in Israeli military intelligence, as the sole piece of evidence that she’s a Mossad operative," The Bulwark reported.
Wilkins has fought back with several lawsuits against right-wing media pundits.
"In August, she sued former FBI agent and Patel nemesis Kyle Seraphin, who responded in a recent court filing that he was using 'satire' and 'hyperbole' when he suggested she was a honeypot."
But that's not the only legal move she's made.
Far-right commentator Elijah Schaffer this week said that Wilkins sued him for $5 million on Oct. 28 in response to his post about the honeypot accusations. She has also sued Samuel B. Parker, a conspiracy theorist, after he made a similar accusation on Oct. 31.
Schaffer claims the move is in response to his criticism of Israel and that Patel is also targeting him with the case.
“This is a proxy lawsuit to bully me,” Schaffer said.
“They’re suing me for the implications, based on previous posts I had made on my X account, not about Alexis, not about Kash, but about the state of Israel,” Schaffer said in his video.
"Wilkins’s lawsuit against Schaffer does seem remarkably thin," The Bulwark acknowledged. "The sole piece of evidence that Schaffer suggested Wilkins is a honeypot agent was a September 14 tweet where Schaffer, without caption, posted a picture of the couple together. But he also quote-tweeted a post about Mossad operatives in Iran 'seducing top officials.'"
