The article discusses Kash Patel's nomination to lead the FBI and highlights his use of the Kash Foundation, which promotes merchandise and books, including several politically charged children's books that portray Donald Trump as 'King Donald.' These books are published by Brave Books, known for their biblical values, and present Trump-era controversies through medieval storytelling, featuring characters such as 'the shifty knight' Adam Schiff. The critique emphasizes the absurdity and partisanship apparent in these narratives, likening the writing style to an AI mimicking pro-Trump social media posts.
Among many things the foundation promoted-including Kash-branded T-shirts and scarves and a book for adults titled Government Gangsters -was a children's book in which, Fahrenthold wrote, "a besieged King Donald is helped by a wizard named Kash."
These books read like someone fed storylines from the Trump era into an A.I. trained on MAGA posts on social media and gave it the command: "Tell this as a medieval story in a slightly funny way."
