Kash Patel is using our tax dollars as his personal piggy bank.¹

The FBI Director flew with his girlfriend on a government jet to Philadelphia to watch a concert from a luxury suite that costs $35 - 50K.² He flew to the Olympics to drink beer and party with the U.S. hockey team.³ He even took a "VIP snorkel" trip to one of the military’s most hallowed sites, the underwater tomb of the U.S.S. Arizona at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii.⁴

Congress must investigate and stop Patel's personal travel on the taxpayer dime.

Tell Congress: Investigate FBI Director Kash Patel’s flagrant abuse of government funds for personal trips!

The catalogue of these trips is long. Patel used a government jet to fly to central Pennsylvania to attend a wrestling event where his girlfriend was singing the national anthem, then to her home in Nashville.⁵

He used government resources during the government shutdown to fly to a luxury resort in Texas owned by the family of a MAGA donor.⁶ He's flown to NHL hockey games and UFC events, and more.

Patel has even assigned his girlfriend a government security detail — an act unprecedented at the FBI.⁷

Patel, like so many in the self-serving Trump administration, think they can use the people's tax dollars to do whatever they want. Our lawmakers must reject this corruption and hold the FBI director accountable!

Tell Congress: Investigate Kash Patel’s taxpayer-funded trips!
