Defection of Counterterrorism Chief Worried About Trump's Revenge

Defection of the US Counterterrorism Chief Joe Kent is worried about political revenge from the Trump administration, but does not regret his move. He says this on the conservative media profile Megyn Kelly's podcast.

- Of course I am worried because we have all seen how the FBI and the government hunt down people who dare to raise their voices, he says and adds:

- But I know that I have the facts and the truth on my side.

Kent resigned on Tuesday. In his resignation letter, he wrote that Iran did not pose an immediate threat to the United States and that the country was drawn into the war under pressure from "Israel and its powerful lobby in the United States", which raised accusations of anti-Semitism from Republican politicians.

According to sources to American media, Kent has been investigated by the FBI for leaks since before he stepped down from his role.

Politicians Fury Over Trump's Cheers Over Mueller's Death

Democratic politicians are furious after Donald Trump expressed joy over the death of former FBI Director and Special Counsel Robert Mueller, reports Politico.

"Every day this president demonstrates his lack of decency and his unfitness for public office," writes California Senator Adam Schiff on X.

The president's rudeness is an end in itself, writes Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.

"Trump's goal is to distract you from rising gas prices, ICE abuses, and the Epstein investigation. Don't give him what he wants."

At least one Republican, Representative Don Bacon, also condemned the post.

"This behavior is wrong and unchristian," he writes in a text message to Politico.
