Well, someone had a bit of a krash out.
On Wednesday’s episode of Sean Hannity’s Fox News show, FBI Director Kash Patel was asked about a New York Times article published earlier Wednesday that alleged that the FBI investigated one of its journalists after she wrote an unflattering piece about Patel’s country-singer girlfriend, Alexis Wilkins.
Hannity told Patel on Wednesday that the Times’ allegations don’t sound like something he would do.
“I’m reading that they’re going after you, that you used the FBI because you didn’t like a story about your girlfriend,” Hannity said to Patel on Wednesday. “And is there any truth to that? Because I’ve known you a long time. It just doesn’t sound like you.”
“Absolutely not,” a heated Patel said in response. “The reality is — and thanks, Sean — is that the same reporter delivered a baseless story which caused a direct threat of life to my girlfriend.”
