Joe Kent was nominated by President Donald Trump in February 2025 to lead the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC). Kent, a former Green Beret and congressional candidate, was confirmed by the U.S. Senate in July 2025. He was a key figure in the "America First" movement and worked under Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard.

As dumb as Trump is I think he knows that. He is just moving forward the objectives of his handler.

Right. That's called LYING.

"I hardly knew him. He didn't understand that America First meant if Bibi and Putin approve. Was never a fan, I can tell you that."

FLASHBACK

Your Director of the National Terrorism Center was “weak on security” and you appointed him and then kept him?

You guys, Europe has done it this time. Lady G is hoppin’ mad!

But to be fair he did say that he thought that Kent was always "weak on security " so being weak on security aside, maybe Trump and Tulsi saw other skills that Kent brought to the table as Director of the United States National Counterterrorism Center

Amazing the correlation between levels of bone spurs, and fearless courage.

You might think they would be inversely related, but you would be wrong.

Presidents before him crossed the all time high on the Dow including Biden, Obama, and Clinton. You don't get a participation trophy for that.

Problem being none of the three primary actors here have a shred of credibility…

 

[duluoz]

Fuck this guy. He’s no hero. This is not bravery or principled honor or anything close to that. Read the letter, he coddles trump telling him how his people deceived him and absolves him of any blame. Blames it on misinformation and “echo chamber.”

All this weak piece of scum is doing is GTFO before the shit hits the fan with terror attacks stateside and he’s holding the bag. Fuck this clown AND his reflection.

So, St. Donald of Bone Spurs thinks Joe Kent is weak on security. Is this the same Joe Kent whose wife and the mother of his children was killed in Northern Syria by an ISIS suicide bomber while serving in the Navy as a member of a Joint Task Force?
