𝗝𝗢𝗘 𝗞𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗗𝗜𝗗𝗡'𝗧 𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗜𝗚𝗡. 𝗛𝗘 𝗕𝗘𝗔𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗙𝗜𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗦𝗤𝗨𝗔𝗗 𝗧𝗢 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗗𝗢𝗢𝗥.The picture that's emerging today is damning. A senior administration official told Fox News that Kent was a "known leaker" who had been cut out of Trump's intelligence briefings months ago — and that the White House told Gabbard he should be fired for suspected leaks, but she never did it.Multiple sources confirmed the White House repeatedly told Gabbard to fire Kent. She refused. So he kept his title, kept his office, and kept his security clearance — while being frozen out of the actual intelligence he was supposed to oversee.The day before his public resignation, Kent met with Vice President JD Vance and presented his letter. Vance encouraged him to speak to the White House chief of staff and the president before making any final decisions, and urged him to be respectful to Trump. Kent went public anyway.So here's the full picture the media isn't assembling for you: Kent was a suspected leaker. He was cut from the president's briefings. The White House wanted him gone. Gabbard protected him. He was never in the Iran war planning rooms. And when it became clear the axe was finally coming, he drafted a resignation letter laced with antisemitic conspiracy theories, walked it into the VP's office, ignored Vance's counsel, and published it on social media for maximum damage.That's not a principled stand. Trump said it best: "I always thought he was weak on security. Very weak on security. It's a good thing that he's out."He didn't resign in protest. He controlled his own exit before someone else could write it for him.
