In his resignation letter, Kent wrote, “As a veteran who deployed to combat 11 times and as a Gold Star husband who lost my beloved wife Shannon in a war manufactured by Israel, I cannot support sending the next generation off to fight and die in a war that serves no benefit to the American people nor justifies the cost of American lives.”

    This was my first thought too. This guy backed Trump through all the bullshit of the last 10 years, but it was bombing Iran that finally made him break? I don’t buy it.

      Maybe he’s getting out before the fake terrorist attack on US soil happens because it’s so unbelievable for the story they have cooked up he doesn’t want to look like a complete idiot. 😉

        I do suspect Trump wants an Article 1 in invocation to get the Strait opened back up.

        Nobody is supporting him, I wouldn’t put it past them to try something like a false flag.
