Top Counterterrorism official resigns over War

Joe Kent, Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, resigned March 17, 2026, in protest of the Trump administration’s war with Iran—calling it a “manufactured” conflict driven by external pressure, not an imminent threat. A key intelligence adviser, Kent said he couldn’t support the war in good conscience, marking the first high-level resignation tied to the conflict.
