Let the exodus begin.

"President Trump's director of the National Counterterrorism Center, Joe Kent, announced his immediate resignation Tuesday, citing the decision to begin a war against Iran when "Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation."

Kent, nominated by the president and confirmed by the Senate last year, posted his resignation letter on X Tuesday morning. He claimed the war was "manufactured" by Israel.

"I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran," Kent wrote in his resignation letter addressed to the president and posted to X. "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."

All these brain trusts on grok don't understand the definition of "imminent." Forty-seven years of trash talking the US is not an" imminent threat."

One after another. The threats were imminent all along, judging by the record.

It's chronological.


Once therats are either carried out or stymied, they stop being imminent.

I hope that by removing the totalitarian theocratic regime's ability to cow their own people, the threats will diminish or stop.
