Joe Kent quits his job as counter-terrorism director.
Trump calls him 'stupid.'
This is the same Trump who told us that Iran's nuke program was "OBLITERATED," and then commenced bombing the daylights out of Iran because its nuke program was 'able to make and deliver nukes' in 60 days or so.
Maybe Trump--and his handlers--think everyone is "stupid"?
Venezuela and Cuba? They are on 'our ranch.'
Ukraine and Israel? Not so much.
Trump has been played, he knows it, and now he goes the 2-year-old route: call names.
Makes all the good things he did fade into the distance.

One wonders why Trump is so upset?
President Trump,
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 war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.
I support the values and the foreign policies that you campaigned on in 2016, 2020, 2024, which you enacted in your first term. Until June of 2025, you understood that the wars in the Middle East were a trap that robbed America of the precious lives of our patriots and depleted the wealth and prosperity of our nation.
In your first administration, you understood better than any modern President how to decisively apply military power without getting us drawn into never-ending wars. You demonstrated this by killing Qasem Soleimani and by defeating ISIS.
Early in this administration, high-ranking Israeli officials and influential members of the American media deployed a misinformation campaign that wholly undermined your America First platform and sowed pro-war sentiments to encourage a war with Iran. This echo chamber was used to deceive you into believing that Iran posed an imminent threat to the United States, and that should you strike now, there was a clear path to a swift victory. This was a lie and is the same tactic the Israelis used to draw us into the disastrous Iraq war that cost our nation the lives of thousands of our best men and women. We cannot make this mistake again.
As a veteran who deployed to combat 11 times and as a Gold Star husband who lost my beloved wife Shannon in a war manufactured by Israel, I cannot support sending the next generation off to fight and die in a war that serves no benefit to the American people nor justifies the cost of American lives.
I pray that you will reflect upon what we are doing in Iran, and who we are doing it for. The time for bold action is now. You can reverse course and chart a new path for our nation, or you can allow us to slip further toward decline and chaos. You hold the cards.
It was an honor to serve in your administration and to serve our great nation.
Joseph Kent
Director, National Counterterrorism Center
….If you're having trouble remembering the last time we killed a religious leader, it's because we haven't killed any religious leaders, at least not openly, because we don't want to start religious wars, because they're hard to fight and very hard to
resolve. And how is that good for us? How was that good for our access to LNG and oil from the Gulf? Tell me, Ben Shapiro, can you find the
Gulf on a map? So, why did we do that? Now, we don't know exactly why we did that. Maybe there are American military planners who thought sincerely, "Hey, I've got an idea: let's kill the Ayatollah. Then all the liberal elements in the country will rise up. They won't actually discover their latent Shia Islam and rally around an 86-year-old man who was killed along with his family." Maybe there were actually American military planners who thought that, but more likely, there are Israeli strategists who realize that once the United States kills the Ayatollah, they kind
of can't get out.
We're all in…..,
