US EditionTucker Carlson says ‘neocons’ will try to destroy Joe Kent over resignation
Joe Kent said key officials were blocked from advising Trump on Iran war decisions, alleging Israeli influence shaped U.S. policy despite no imminent nuclear threat from Iran.
- On Wednesday, Joe Kent, former director of the U.S. National Counterterrorism Center, sat for an extensive interview with Tucker Carlson, marking his first public comments since resigning.

- The on‑camera interview lasted more than one hour and 40 minutes and examined Iran war topics plus the assassination of Charlie Kirk and government files on John F. Kennedy.
- The White House sharply rebuked Kent, with press secretary Karoline Leavitt calling the claims 'laughable', while some lawmakers and Jewish groups criticized his statements and Trump said Kent 'was weak on security'.
- A senior Trump administration official told CNN Kent had been sidelined from presidential intelligence briefings, which Kent says limited the intelligence community's ability to provide a 'sanity check', while Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard declined to address his resignation at a Senate committee on Wednesday.
