Good Riddance to Kent

quote:

Some people on the right are taking the line that, given Joe Kent’s service in the United States military, we should be respectful of his disagreement with President Trump’s fight in Iran.

I am not one of them. CAIR, the American branch of the Muslim Brotherhood, is cheering on Joe Kent’s decision to resign. Think about that.

God bless him for his service. But he came home to the United States and turned into a white nationalist sympathetic grifter who surrounded himself with racist dregs of society, spouted conspiracy theories, sabotaged a Republican held seat in the Pacific Northwest, and somehow did the syncophantic tap dance to get Trump’s attention for appointment, only to crash out to cash out with anti-Israel nonsense and a rush to Tucker Carlson’s podcast and an Epstein Advisor Steve Bannon created Catholic group in DC that was designed to undermine the Pope. He’ll be there with fellow antisemites Candace Owens and that Carrie Porn Star Chick who hates the Jews. Oh, before publishing, I just saw he’s going to join Candace Owens on her podcast, too.

Joe Kent was a terrible pick, is an awful person, and is now wrapping himself around hatred of Israel and other terrible picks. He was a Democrat turned libertarian turned Democrat Bernie Sanders supporter who fit the box some of the isolations around Trump wanted, and now those same isolations are trying to undermine the President’s mission internally. Kent will now do it from the outside.

Now we’re told by people in the Trump administration, he was on his way out. The Trump administration wanted him fired for being a leaker, compromising the administration. And he wasn’t very good at his job as the director of counterterrorism. How do I know? Because he now says the biggest proponent of terrorism in the world wasn’t a threat to the United States. He was a trash pick to begin with.

And I want you to know, all of these people on the right who are out there saying, oh, you really shouldn’t trash the guy, they’re saying it because they never saw him for who he was, and they don’t want to be held accountable for their poor judgment when it came to Joe Kent. He was a bad pick. He undermined the Trump administration. He barely got through his confirmation hearing. The Senate failed to do its job, frankly, trying to hump Donald Trump’s leg on something like this. And even the president is now like, well, he was a good guy, I think, but he was bad on this and weak in his job.

Good riddance to Joe Kent. He never should have been there. And the audacity to blame the Israelis for this. You know, history actually shows it was Israel who tried to convince George W. Bush not to attack Iraq. Joe Kent says otherwise. We have documented history now that actually the Israelis were hoping we would attack Iran instead—which we’re now doing. And Joe Kent blames Israel for killing his first wife, who happened to be working for the United States in Syria, and ISIS, not Israel, killed her. He’s now blaming Israel for this. He blamed Israel for the first war in Iraq. The guy just hates Israel. The guy has ties to white nationalists. He was a terrible pick. He never should have been there. Good riddance.
