Top Gabbard deputy Joe Kent quits over Iran, prays Trump will ‘reflect’

Daily Caller News Foundation

A top lieutenant for Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard resigned Tuesday morning over the war in Iran.

Joe Kent, Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, said it is clear Iran posed no threat to the U.S. and the war in Iran was started due to pressure from Israel. The announcement comes a day ahead of Gabbard’s hearing in front of the House Intelligence Committee on worldwide threats.

“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,” Kent said in an X post.
