Kash Patel’s girlfriend slaps down conspiracies that she’s a secret Israeli ‘honeypot’ agent

FBI Director Kash Patel’s girlfriend is firing back after earning the ire of MAGA circles furious over the agency’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.

Alexis Wilkins, 26, is pushing back on conspiracy theorists who accuse her of being a ‘honeypot’ agent for Israeli intelligence meant to influence her FBI Director boyfriend’s actions.

‘It’s accusing me of manipulating the person that I’m with, that I love. That’s a horrible accusation,’ Wilkins told Megyn Kelly on her Wednesday podcast episode.

‘It would have been a really long-game play,’ she joked, noting she has been dating Patel, 45, ‘long before he was the head of the FBI’ for over two years.

A conservative country music singer who hosts a show on the digital nonprofit platform PragerU was opened up to wider public influence when she attended the confirmation hearings and swearing-in for Patel earlier this year.

The Daily Mail reported at the time on their not-yet-reported relationship that quickly went public.

Wilkins, however, was surprised to find she somehow became the center of fury within factions of the MAGA movement who were most furious over the FBI and DOJ findings in the Epstein files review.

Conspiracies swirled online that she was an agent with Mossad, Israel’s national intelligence agency.

‘I knew that Prager – this is something the deep sides of the internet like to pick at when they can’t find out what else is wrong. So, some of it didn’t surprise me when it first started coming up,’ Wilkins told Megyn Kelly.

PragerU CEO Marissa Streit was an intelligence officer in the Israeli Defense Forces, which has fueled anti-Semitic attacks on the conservative nonprofit.

The latest attacks came after the Justice Department and FBI released a memo earlier this month concluding their review of the Epstein files and revealing nearly no new information.

The document confirmed that Epstein killed himself in prison on August 10, 2019 and claimed there was no so-called ‘client list’ of the sex traffickers’ accomplices.

Patel and Attorney General Pam Bondi said they would not be targeting anyone else for prosecution.

They did release an 11-hour video of the area outside Epstein’s cell the night he was killed.

But this only caused more uproar after a ‘missing minute’ of footage that was initially described as an autonomic tech reset every night turned out to be footage that the FBI and DOJ had in their possessions but never released.

It’s still unknown what’s in that ‘missing minute,’ why it wasn’t included in the original release and whether it will ever be made public.

While that drama has unfolded over the last month, Wilkins has been facing her own issues with critics harassing her online and doxxing her family over claims she’s a foreign intelligence agent.

One account on X even misidentified Wilkins, who is Christian, as a ‘Jewish’ country singer.

Wilkins acknowledges where some of the spy claims are coming from, noting that people want answers and are trying to ‘piece’ things together.

‘They want to connect things, they want to justify, you know, some of the pain that they’ve been through watching the last four years, and there’s pieces of this that, you know, I can, I understand,’ she told Kelly.

‘But I think that they’ve taken just these pieces of evidence that you laid out and tie them together in all of the wrong ways.’

Wilkins and Patel’s 19-year age gap doesn’t help with claims she is ‘honeypotting’ the FBI Director.

But the singer and conservative activist says the gap never felt relevant.

‘I have always liked, when I met him, I just liked that he was so, so honest,’ Wilkins disclosed. ‘He’s exactly who he is all the time.’

‘And, you know, we both are very patriotic,’ she added. ‘So obviously there are things there that we definitely agree on, but he’s just the most honest, you know, most integrity I’ve really experienced in a person.’
