Lawsuit against ex-FBI agent

But the controversy hasn’t stopped.

In fact, it’s escalated into a courtroom fight. Wilkins is now suing ex-FBI agent turned podcaster Kyle Seraphin for defamation, after he suggested on his show that Patel’s relationship with her was part of a “honeypot” operation.

Patel, he claimed, “has had his own little ‘honeypot’ issue that’s been going on of late, so we’re just going to acknowledge it real publicly.”

Without naming her, Seraphin described Patel’s girlfriend as “half his age, who is apparently is both a country music singer, a political commentator on Rumble, a friend of John Rich through [FBI deputy Director Dan] Bongino, who also now owns a big chunk of Rumble, and she’s also a former Mossad agent.”
