Kash Cooks The Books
Thursday, May 14th, 2026
Today, Kash Patel is lying about his success stats at the FBI; the Pentagon is considering changing the name of the war in Iran if the ceasefire fails which is a weird headline given there was an active naval blockade this whole time meaning there can’t have been a ceasefire; a bill to end the war in the Senate failed because Fetterman voted against it; Cindy Burbank won the Democratic nomination for Senate in Nebraska and we’ll tell you why that’s interesting; Justice KBJ is asking the public to support judicial independence because it’s under attack; Brad Raffensperger has been hit with multiple death threats; Rand Paul’s son William hurled antisemitic insults at Rep Mike Lawler; and Allison and Dana deliver your Good News.
