Is it a good look? Maybe not. But, it is not illegal or unethical.
If a public servant is on official travel, funded by the U.S. taxpayer, there are in fact regs governing behavior, activities and gifts the public servant may receive.
Yep and Patel would know that if he took his annual ethics training like the rest of us Feds. Damn these people make me so angry villainizing Feds left and right when they’re the real villains. Disgusting.
+1000 it's disgusting. Rules for thee but not for me. I can't wait to see this shitshow end if not in Nov, 2029. I'll be popping champagne on Inauguration Day.

The director of the FBI should not be behaving in such a disgraceful manner. The FBI is a serious agency, with deadly serious work. The current director is badly damaging its image.
For shame.
Oh, yes. Shame on him! So disgraceful to congratulate and celebrate with our American Gold Medal winning hockey team!

Your jealousy is showing.
He was invited by the team. He is a big hockey fan. This was not "official." His meetings with the security people were official.
