    „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.“ Interesting!

  2. „Kent, a former political candidate with connections to right-wing extremists, was confirmed to his post last July on a 52-44 vote.“

    Trump is even losing the looniest of right-wing loony tunes now.

  3. massive slap in the face to every worshiper of the Orange, too bad this won’t matter in one day

    the biggest threat is pushing them to play their trump card and close the strait…

  5. They didn’t pose an imminent threat. There still hasn’t been any proper justification provided for this war. Israel know they’re losing the American public and there is a voting revolution happening with Americans voting out AIPAC bought candidates. This is their last chance to take out any neighbouring enemies with a compromised president.

    Soooo his letter directly accuses Israel of hypnotizing the President through a coordinated media campaign. Feels like we are through the looking glass 

  7. Holy shit. That resignation letter is a full on public scorched earth against the president. Straight up said Israel dragged us into a war with no threat against us

  8. I predict the media will let this die a quick death. they report it because he resigned but they will try to quash it.

  9. Confirms what Democrats have said coming out of the classified briefings. Israel has always wanted to do this and they got their useful idiot.

    Crazy though that he says it and apparently believes it and has morals but still uses it as an opportunity to lick Trumps boots. I don’t get it. Who does he think made the shitty decision?

  11. You know it’s bad when Trump’s own appointee isn’t on board with his war.

    Just more confirmation of what we already knew. Netanyahu got into Trump’s ear and stroked that ego good and hard. „Youre the only one whose ever been brave enough, smart enough, strong enough to fight Iran Mr. President.“

    Thats why we’re at war.

    And he’s one of their nut jobs. JFC, they’re even losing their own crazies.

    “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.”

    No ambiguity there.

    Joe Kent is widely respected in the x Special ops youtube sphere, which in and of itself is hugely influential on veterans who consume that media. This is worse for MAGA than I think they realize. If Joe goes on Shawn Ryan show and talks a bunch of shit, it will definitely sway vets and some young men from supporting MAGA and their war.

    So many people killed by the US and Israel for no reason. What are we doing?

    Broken clock! Even an unqualified loon will occasionally get something right.

    He has more integrity than Tulsi Gabbard.

  18. This is exactly how you fight the banality of evil, by thinking and realizing that senseless violence is abhorrent and by taking action and speaking out. I probably don’t share the same political or even social ideas as this man, but I can recognize the bravery it takes to go against what you originally believed.

    Israel hates Jews more than any anti-semite because it was a Jewish Philosopher who coined the phrase „banality of evil“… Hanna Arendt. And she was the one who predicted the self destructive nature of imperialistic Zionism.

    It gives me hope that the US is nothing like Israel. It gives me hope that our freedoms are strong enough that we stand up against Israel’s fascism which is heavily rooted in European fascism. The evil of Israeli imperialism needs to be studied because it feels like it goes beyond being just banal.

    God damn trump is a fuckin degenerate liar and raised prices for all americans

  20. These idiots need to stop resigning and start opposing. Obstruct. Get in the way. Make doing this insanity harder.

    Every time they resign, they just make things worse. All because they’re afraid their reputation will get hurt by being attached to this insanity. For people who value honor and integrity, they show very little of it.

    And the US will create another generation of what we will call “terrorists” as a result. If my children were killed in a bombing at school… I would not forgive

  22. manfromfuture on

    He’s planning to run for something and doesn’t want to be associated with this.

  23. Okay everyone. You know how this goes. Let’s all say it together once again!

    „This should be the end of the Trump presidency!“

    We’ve said this a million times now. Every last one was valid yet.. here we are.

  24. For those not aware, Joe Kent was so far right that he let Marie Glusenkamp-Perez win WA-03 twice.

    He is not a sane politician. He has repeatedly said the 2020 election was stolen and is a danger to democracy.

  25. PleasantWay7 on

    The most interesting thing here is that Kent is a diehard MAGA. I wonder if this is early signs of seeing where things are going and positioning early, so in 2028 he can run as “Pure America First MAGA heir who was always against this.”

    The EU and NATO need to stand strong and stay out of this war. That’s the only way to bring down Trump and his unqualified cabinet, as well as any republican that supported this fight.

  27. You remember that time when the Epstein files were coming out and we were seeing these atrocious things happening throughout them that are being confirmed by victims? do you remember that? cuz I feel like we’re forgetting that. it’s almost like we went to war to stop that conversation and you know what it worked.

  28. Gas in my area has hit the $4.25 PG Regular. It’s not even close to the summer blend release which is significantly more expensive.

    We will see $6.00 PG without a doubt, maybe even more.

    This is a colossal, devastating fuck up beyond belief, all done without the consent of Congress or the American people.

    Do the math folks.
