Overview

• Alexis Wilkins sued Kyle M. Seraphin in federal court in Austin, alleging he defamed her by saying she was a Mossad-linked "honeypot" targeting FBI Director Kash Patel.
• The complaint cites Seraphin’s Aug. 22 episode referencing a "honeypot" and a "former Mossad agent"; he did not use her name, but the suit says the remarks unmistakably referred to her.
• Wilkins’ filing says she is American-born, not Israeli or Jewish, has never been to Israel, and contends Seraphin traded on his former FBI credentials to give the assertions credibility.
• The suit seeks at least $5 million and claims Seraphin acted with actual malice, noting he had previously met Wilkins and Patel, which it argues undercuts any claim of ignorance.
• Seraphin has told his audience he never directly accused Wilkins and pointed to similar online rumors drawing more attention, while the case proceeds with heightened media scrutiny.
