Show Notes
Joe Kent, a Green Beret veteran and former Trump supporter, resigned as director of the National Counterterrorism Center over disagreements with President Trumps airstrikes on Iran. Kent, who has past ties to far-right figures and has pushed conspiracy theories, argued that Iran posed no immediate danger and blamed outside pressures for the conflict. His resignation letter was criticized for showing anti-Semitism, and he has been accused of pushing conspiracy theories on vaccines, the 2020 election, and the January 6th rioters. Kent was confirmed by the Senate in July and focused on drug cartels during his hearings.
