The Atlantic Responds To Kash Patel’s $250 Million Lawsuit By Reporting He Travels With Personalized Bourbon

Ed. Note: Welcome to our daily feature Trivia Question of the Day!

After reporting on the alleged drinking habits of the FBI Director led to a $250 million defamation lawsuit, Sarah Fitzpatrick at The Atlantic responded with a follow-up story about a personalized booze stash. According to that report, what brand of bourbon did the “merch forward” Kash Patel — erm, sorry, “Ka$h” have engraved with his name and the FBI logo to use as gifts?

Hint: An FBI spokesperson said, “the bottles in question are part of a tradition in the FBI that started well over a decade ago, long before Director Patel arrived. Senior Bureau officials have long exchanged commemorative items in formal gift settings consistent with ethics rules. Director Patel has followed all applicable ethical guidelines and pays for any personal gift himself.” Fitzpatrick notes, no one can produce any images of bottles engraved with the names of any former directors.
