The timing of this couldn't be worse.
But you have to admire a man that is taking a stand.
His voice has mattered a great deal. This is another blow to the Trump Administration.

Top counterterrorism official Kent resigns over Trump's Iran war, says Iran posed no imminent threat

So the head of the "National Counterterrorism Center" is mad because we've taken out the direct sponsor of most of global terrorism over the past 50 years?

It's weird because I was told any Trump supporter with a brain knew we were going to war with Iran

joe Kent:
"After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we
started this…"

House Democrats will call him in as a top witness for their hearings in January 2027.

Can't imagine how Trump or Tulsi spins this.
This is a guy who aligned himself with the far-right MAGA wing of the GOP.

Think about the anguish and political courage this guy is about to go through.
Hopefully, it will lead to others to step up and resign too.

Senator Mark Warner of Virginia, the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, said Mr. Kent "has aligned himself with political violence, promoted falsehoods that undermine our democracy and tried to twist intelligence to serve a political agenda."

Now he's a hero of the resistance

---

Yes.
Because he was one of "them" and simply parroted everything that the far-right did.
He even received a campaign endorsement from Nick Fuentes, Pro-Putin talking points, said that Dr. Fauci was a murderer, etc.

And now he's seen Jesus.

I can only imagine who you are referring to since I have them blocked.
Did they deflect from the topic at hand which is JOE KENT?

Trump said today that KENT was "weak on security, very weak on security."

SO WHY WOULD TRUMP NOMINATE HIM?

"I didn't know him well, but I thought he seemed like a pretty nice guy," Trump said.

Hey, cut it out with the personal attacks. You're lucky I'm not a snowflake.

Seriously, when your definition of personal attack becomes so broad and all encompassing, it loses it's meaning for actual personal attacks. Reading something you don't like isn't a personal attack.

Our moderator doesn't like to read about fascists in America. A personal attack is what the moderator says it is. Much like laws are what the Supreme Court says they are.

Well that post did get removed so obviously Oski wasn't the only one who felt that way

Iran has been after Trump since January of 2020 after he ordered the targeted killing of the terrorist Qasem Soleimani.

This isn’t a new threat.

The secret service consistently failing to secure Trump is new.

We need to figure out exactly why these failures keep happening. https://t.co/UprKS9SGLW

Nobody cares
