That said, I'm not sure how good any of those speech to text tools actually are, so, this might be kind of a pipe dream at the moment.
Also, I know you meant "Choose Your Own Adventure," but my immediate first thought was "Cover Your Own Ass." I may have spent too much time in corporate America. :/
I wanted to build it into an red analog telephone. The phone would ring and you would hear a message from various government/military types.
As tensions rise, the phone rings more often, possibly multiple lines light up forcing you to catch/miss vital information or opportunities.
Inevitably, things go pear-shaped and you try to (prevent?) a first strike/retaliatory strike.
Truthfully, I don’t have the skills to build the device, but plotting out the narrative, writing the dialogue would be fun.
I encourage the effort, but don't want to well it short. The idea is the easy part.

A push button is literally one of the most trivial things you can wire up to GPIO. You can also interact with GPIO in Python pretty easily: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/usage/gpio/python/...
