The FBI is investigating whether Joe Kent, who resigned his position as a top counterterrorism official this week in protest of the Iran war, improperly shared classified information.

    What he said:

    “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,” Kent wrote.

    Wonder what the classified bit is?

      I guess it’s “Trump, Hegseth and Netanyahu have knowingly been lying all along.” Kind of an open secret.

    What a joke. If there was any public support they could go hard against any critics of the war like they did in the world wars. I think I read this war has the lowest support of any war we have launched at this point in it. It usually takes a couple years at least for the population to sour on it.
