Kash Patel, 45, blew up after his taxpayer-funded protection detail ditched his girlfriend at the National Rifle Association’s annual convention in Atlanta.

The FBI director assigned an entire SWAT team from the bureau’s Atlanta field office to shadow his 27-year-old girlfriend, Alexis Wilkins, at the conference, The New York Times reported Sunday. Both current and former FBI officials told the outlet that Wilkins’ extensive—and unusually frequent—taxpayer-funded SWAT security, including at the conference where she performed the “Star-Spangled Banner,” was “highly unusual.”

“The assignment of SWAT-qualified special agents to guard his girlfriend are indicative of his lack of leadership experience, judgment and humility,” Christopher O’Leary, a former Marine and FBI agent who led a team that conducted “high-risk missions,” told the Times.

SWAT team members left their posts at the April event after determining that Wilkins, a country singer-hopeful, was safe and secure—igniting Patel’s fury.
