After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today.
I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.
It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC.
May God bless America.
We will still have to battle on issues through Congress. We still will have real emerging threats. But Trump is trying to prevent democracy by being a madman, so use the 25th.
The president of the United States is extremely mentally ill and it’s putting all of our lives at risk. The 25th Amendment exists for a reason—we need to invoke it immediately.
The Netanyahu government’s decision to attack Iran only makes a very dangerous situation worse.
Instead of bringing wars to an end, Trump is facilitating them — leading to civilian deaths and threatening American lives. This is a moment that requires real American leadership.
The U.S. should not join a war against Iran, and I will ask the Senate to stop such a reckless idea. Have we learned nothing from 20+ years of war in the Middle East?

Everyone is finding out who are real America First/MAGA and who were fake and just said it bc it was popular.
Unfortunately the list of fakes are becoming quite long and exposed themselves quickly.
Anyone slobbering for the U.S. to become fully involved in the Israel/Iran war is not America First/MAGA.
Wishing for murder of innocent people is disgusting.
We are sick and tired of foreign wars. All of them.
And this one will quickly engulf the Middle East, BRICS, and NATO as countries are required to take a side.
Real America First/MAGA wants world peace for all people and doesn’t want our military killed and forever injured physically and mentally.
We love our U.S. military and love them helping to secure our borders and our cities for the defense of OUR PEOPLE AND OUR COUNTRY.
They are our friends, spouses, cousins, nieces, nephews, sisters, brothers, sons, and daughters.
We have spent TRILLIONS in the Middle East and we have dealt with the aftermath of death, blown apart bodies, never ending suicides, and disabling PTSD.
All because they told us propaganda as to why we must sacrifice our own to defend some other country’s borders and some other country’s borders.
I don’t want to see Israel bombed or Iran bombed or Gaza bombed.
I don’t want to see Ukraine bombed or Russia bombed.
And we do NOT want to be involved or required to pay for ANY OF IT!!!
We are $36+ TRILLION in debt and have mountains of our own problems.
We have giant planks sticking out of our own eyes while we complain about splinters in other’s eyes.
Every country involved and all over the world can be happy, successful, and rich if we all work together and seek peace and prosperity.
Taking this position is NOT antisemitic.
It’s rational, sane, and loving toward all people.
Taking this position of peace and prosperity for all is not isolationism, it leads to GREAT trade deals and GREAT economies that help ALL PEOPLE.
It’s what many Americans voted for in 2024.
America First!
America First!!
America First!!!
That is how we Make America Great Again!!!!!
BREAKING: Dallas, deep red, oil-soaked, and MAGA-aligned is now flooded with anti-Trump protesters. A city once thought untouchable has joined the rebellion. The tide is turning.
The real divide isn’t between people who support Israel and people who support Iran or the Palestinians. The real divide is between those who casually encourage violence, and those who seek to prevent it — between warmongers and peacemakers. Who are the warmongers? They would include anyone who’s calling Donald Trump today to demand air strikes and other direct US military involvement in a war with Iran. On that list: Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, Rupert Murdoch, Ike Perlmutter and Miriam Adelson. At some point they will all have to answer for this, but you should know their names now.
