White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt didn't mince words Tuesday when she torpedoed Joe Kent's dramatic resignation letter, accusing the former National Counterterrorism Center director of spreading "false claims" and recycling Democrat talking points about President Trump's decisive action against Iran.
Kent, who served as a top aide to Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, sent shockwaves through the swamp when he publicly quit his position over policy differences with the Trump administration's Operation Epic Fury - the military operation that finally neutralized the Iranian threat once and for all.
But Leavitt wasn't having any of Kent's grandstanding.
"It's disappointing to see someone who should know better resort to the same tired talking points we hear from Chuck Schumer and the radical left," Leavitt fired back during her daily briefing. "These false claims about our Iran policy are exactly what the Democrats want to hear, and frankly, it's beneath someone in that position."
The resignation has exposed a rare crack in Trump's national security team, with Kent apparently unable to stomach the President's America First approach to dealing with Tehran's decades of terrorism and aggression. While the mainstream media celebrates Kent as some kind of principled whistleblower, Patriots know better.
Deep State Resistance Alive and Well?
This isn't just about one disgruntled bureaucrat - it's about the administrative state's continued resistance to Trump's mandate from the American people. Kent's public resignation letter reads like it was drafted by the same swamp creatures who spent Trump's first term trying to undermine him at every turn.
The timing is particularly suspect. Just as President Trump delivers on his promise to restore American strength and end Iran's reign of terror, suddenly we have "principled" officials jumping ship and running straight to the liberal media with their sob stories.
Patriots didn't vote for more endless wars and diplomatic weakness. They voted for strength, decisive action, and an America that leads from the front. If Kent can't handle that mission, good riddance.
The question now is: how many other deep state holdovers are waiting in the wings to stab America First in the back?
