New report raises red flags with FBI leadership

A senior FBI official is pushing back against an MS NOW report that FBI Director Kash Patel told his girlfriend’s security detail to drive her intoxicated friend home after a night out in Nashville. The outlet claims this has happened multiple times.

Ben Williamson, the FBI’s assistant director for public affairs, denied the story in a post on X and directly criticized the reporter involved.
 
"1,000% false and did not happen. And I’d like to give some BTS insight into how this hogwash got printed," Williamson wrote Friday.
 
Williamson said he first received the allegation on Tuesday.

"It sounded made up and I told the reporter so. I went and checked with everyone involved - Alexis (who doesn’t even drink), the Director, the Detail, and more - all of whom said it didn’t happen. Couldn’t find any corroboration or record of it whatsoever," wrote Williamson.

Gee, does this mean the media lied about the whole thing?  They've got more integrity than that.

I think we need to start going scorched earth on the Slander/Libel Front.

Hit 'em where it hurts.
