Joe Kent Under FBI Probe After Quitting Over Iran War” Leaks Storm

The FBI has launched an investigation into former counterterror chief Joe Kent, amid claims he may have leaked classified information during the escalating Iran war crisis.

Probe Began Before Resignation

Sources say the investigation was already underway before Kent dramatically quit his post — raising serious questions about what was happening behind the scenes at the highest levels of U.S. national security.

Leak Claims Rock White House

Senior figures have accused Kent of being “at the centre” of national security leaks, with claims he worked to undermine the chain of command inside the administration.

Iran War Fallout Deepens

Kent’s resignation itself sent shockwaves after he publicly attacked the war with Iran, insisting the country posed “no imminent threat” to the United States.

‘We Were Misled’ Bombshell

He went further — claiming the conflict was driven by pressure from Israel and an influential lobbying network, sparking fierce backlash.

Trump Camp Hits Back

The White House has flatly rejected Kent’s claims, with officials branding them “false” and “insulting,” insisting Donald Trump acted on strong intelligence of an imminent threat.

‘Weak On Security’

Trump himself dismissed Kent bluntly, calling him “weak on security” and saying his exit was ultimately a positive for the administration.

Out Of The Loop?

Officials have also tried to downplay Kent’s influence, claiming he was not involved in key war discussions — a suggestion he has angrily pushed back against.

Insider Turns Critic

In interviews, Kent has doubled down, insisting there was no real intelligence debate before the war — and suggesting key decisions were driven externally.

Past Controversies Resurface

The scandal is also reviving scrutiny of Kent’s past, including political controversies and links to hardline figures, adding further fuel to the fire.

Pressure Mounts

With a leak probe underway and political divisions widening, the saga is fast becoming a full-blown crisis — exposing deep fractures inside the administration as the Iran war intensifies.

Exactly as I stated. The man was under investigation going back several months for his initiation of allegedly illegal activities. The resignation is a smokescreen to offer cover for what are some serious allegations of misconduct.

Spying on US citizens in the USA by the intelligence services is not allowed. Serious violation.

He said the decision to start a war with Iran was due to pressure by Israel lobby and Israel. Do you still deny this?
