The Character Assassination of Joe Kent

Dan and Corey rip into the Iran war as a convenient distraction from the Epstein files, arguing the public gets hammered by tangible fallout like gas spikes while elites shrug. They spotlight former counterterrorism chief Joe Kent’s resignation condemning the war as Israel-driven and not in Americans’ interests, but also criticize anti-war media figures for blaming Israel while refusing to hold Trump accountable. They play and dissect Tulsi Gabbard’s tense committee exchange with Sen. Ossoff, accusing her of evasive, president-deferential non-answers about whether Iran posed an “imminent” nuclear threat, and declare her credibility dead. The episode also mocks a bizarre Netanyahu–Huckabee “punch card” video, paints Netanyahu as openly bloodthirsty, and blasts Trump advisor Kevin Hassett for admitting consumers may suffer while insisting the macro economy will be fine.
