Did You Know that Trump's FBI Director Kash Patel Wrote a Children's Book Entitled "The Plot Against the King?"

Kash Patel's The Plot Against the King was published on April 1, 2022. The book is written in the style of a children's fairy tale, mirroring Donald Trump's 2016 presidential election win over Hilary Clinton.

Patel also wrote and published two sequel children's books in the same style. The Plot Against the King 2000 Mules was published on August 29, 2022, and The Plot Against the King 3: The Return of the King was published on September 9, 2024.

To get a sense of of the characters, the plot, and the underlying messages of these books, I suggest you read the following articles:

Commentary:

It's worth noting that all three books received really bad reviews on Good Reads, however, I'm quite sure that if you read reviews on Christian and right-wing websites they would all be five stars.

In her April 30, 2025 article entitled "What Kash Patel's Children's Books Reveal About the MAGA Movement" author Lydia Wilson does a detailed analysis of all three of Patel's books. I strongly suggest you read her article in its entirety to get a much deeper insight into the content of the books and the overall picture they are trying to paint for America's youth.

Here's some of Wilson's overall analysis (bold added for emphasis):

These books could be — and have been — judged as MAGA conspiracy theories, but that's not the interesting thing about them: Taking a closer look rather than dismissing them as propaganda reveals a wealth of information about Patel's motivations and the values underpinning the MAGA movement. These books tell a story about the morality that lies at the heart of Patel's vision for Trump's America, and reveal another aspect of the moral framing: the grandiosity that stems from the belief you are on a quest of historical and existential significance. The very fact that these books are aimed at children as young as 3 speaks to the long historical arc Patel intends to influence. He is on a mission to save America, now and for decades to come.

But there's something particularly important about the picture books prong of Patel's work: They're for 3-year-olds. Patel's mission to save the soul of America from the forces of evil and the mass cover-up of the truth by the mainstream media is a long-term quest. The children are the next generation in the fight, as Patel recognizes. Trump's essential (if one-dimensional) goodness, proven by his dedication to fighting the forces Patel and other conspiracy theorists have identified as the real threat to the country, must be communicated to the next generation so that they grow up on the right side of this existential fight. The grandiosity and the narcissism of the mission and the language used to portray it are necessary features, stemming from the belief that this is of historical importance. The future of the "Land of the Free" is in jeopardy, and Patel is the superhero fighting on multiple fronts, through his legal and political work, his books for adults, his nonprofit foundation — and his books for 3-year-olds. Wizard Kash is the true hero of Patel's story, and Trump is his vehicle for saving the future of America

These books are nothing but far-right wing propaganda, inflicted upon innocent American youth.

They are explicitly designed to make vulnerable, impressionable young children dislike "them" (the other side) instead of spreading a message of acceptance and love for all, regardless of political beliefs.

On a related note, I recently heard about a 2025 documentary film entitled "Mr Nobody Against Putin". In the film, Pavel Talankin shoots video at a Russian School over a period of two years, documenting the government's efforts to control student perception of Russia and its ongoing war with Ukraine. Patel's books are doing essentially the same thing as what Putin has done in schools in Russia.

Patel's books are vile and disgusting, just like Trump, his sycophants, and the entire MAGA movement.
