The counter-terrorism official who resigned from Donald Trump’s administration over the US and Israel’s war against Iran has said he is bracing for political retribution – but would do it all again anyway.
Asked by conservative podcaster Megyn Kelly if he was concerned about a pre-existing FBI search investigating him for leaking classified information, Joe Kent said he was ambivalent.
Kent said he was “not concerned because I know I did nothing wrong”. But, alluding to the way the Trump administration has sought to criminally prosecute people the president considers enemies, he added: “Of course, I am concerned because we’ve all seen the full weight of the FBI and the government come down on individuals who speak out.”
US counter-terrorism chief who resigned says he fears retaliation but has no regrets.
“That has me a little bit concerned,” he also told Kelly on her podcast on Friday. “But I know that the truth and the facts are on my side.
