LOADING ERROR LOADINGWASHINGTON (AP) — Joe Kent, the former counterterrorism director who resigned this week over concerns about the Iran war, said Wednesday that he and other senior officials with doubts about the airstrikes “were not allowed” to share them with President Donald Trump. “There wasn’t a robust debate.”Kent’s comments offer an inside glimpse into Trump’s decision to strike Iran on Feb. 28 and underscore the risk that the war could divide his political base. AdvertisementGabbard, a veteran and former congresswoman from Hawaii, has previously criticized talk of military strikes in Iran. He said Israeli officials and U.S. media pundits helped make the argument that Iran was a threat. Kent told Carlson that he decided to resign after it became obvious that his concerns would be ignored.

CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten dismissed the narrative of a MAGA split Wednesday with polls showing President Trump is enjoying 100% support from his Republican base. Enten noted there are “some Republicans” who disapprove of Trump but they are not part of the MAGA movement. 3 100% of MAGA Republicans support Trump, according to a recent poll. REUTERSThe poll showing Trump’s perfect level of support also found that 30% of Americans currently identify MAGA, up from 28% in November 2024. The polling, according to Enten, is indicative of just “how strong Donald Trump’s grip is on that MAGA base” is.
By contrast, the intelligence community’s ability to offer a “sanity check” when briefing the president “was largely stifled in this second iteration,” Kent said. A senior Trump administration official told CNN on Tuesday that the White House previously sidelined Kent from participating in the president’s intelligence briefings, including those related to Iran. There was none of that intelligence,” Kent said. He cast Rubio’s thinking as flawed, because, he said, there was no reason to believe Iran was going to attack without being provoked. “I spoke with him before I departed the administration,” Kent told Carlson, adding, “It went great.

Top Trump administration officials testified publicly Wednesday for the first time since the launch of the Iran war three weeks ago. Alex Wong/Getty ImagesThe biggest question going into the hearing was what these officials would say about the Trump administration’s many dubious claims about the Iran war. Majid Saeedi/Getty ImagesPerhaps the central issue is a more subjective one — whether Iran posed an “imminent” threat that warranted going to war. And none of the witnesses described Iran as an “imminent” threat to the United States, in their own words. Kent has a history of associating with extremists on the right, and his resignation letter accused Israel of being behind not just the Iran war, but also the Iraq war and the Syrian civil war.
It remains unclear how much the White House will ultimately ask congressional lawmakers to approve. Some White House officials do not think the Pentagon’s request has a realistic shot of being approved in Congress, the senior administration official said. The Defense Department declined to comment, and the White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The cost of the war in Iran has rapidly grown, exceeding $11 billion in the first week alone, according to multiple officials. The White House Office of Management and Budget objected to that total in internal discussions, suggesting it was too large.
