Boom! Another Trump appointee is out:

NCC director Joe Kent resigns immediately, writing

"Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from 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."

@randahl for a moment I staggered who he could be referring to as POTUS then I remembered ... as I only know him as FOTUS. 🤪Otherwise interesting good news.

@randahl Holy shit! This resignation letter is devastating (or should be, if MAGA was anything other than sycophants).

@randahl
As this guy is apparently known to be very anti-semitic, I predict the response will be to brand anyone making similar points about this war as an anti-semitic extremist and to demand they be silenced and arrested.

@randahl Still getting "I thought only brown people would die" vibes

@randahl War is bad because oil prices have gone up. The US wouldn't start a war with someone who would kill children in their school with a rocket.
