TL;DR Summary
Patel, described in the piece as an FBI director nicknamed “Keystone Kash,” celebrated Team USA’s Olympic hockey victory in the Milan locker room by drinking beer beside the players while President Trump spoke on a congratulatory call; his boisterous conduct—sliding a beer toward the speaker and shouting encouragement—drew blowback from critics, who questioned the propriety of a high-ranking official celebrating on a taxpayers’ trip, even as Trump kept the call going and continued to laud the team.
