Former National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent has accepted an invitation from Mark Levin to sit for an interview on his radio show this week, following his resignation from the Trump administration.”Joe Kent, I would like to interview you on my radio show either tomorrow or Friday or one day next week. For a full hour. I don’t know how to reach you. Have your people call my people,” Levin posted on X.
“Sure. Let’s go,” was Kent’s reply.
Kent resigned on Tuesday, posting a resignation letter to social media in which he asserted that Israel had drawn the U.S. into the war by luring Trump with false promises of an easy victory. Levin, a stalwart proponent of the conflict, and Israel, has been a vocal critic of the war’s detractors, especially podcaster Tucker Carlson.
Kent is slated to sit for an interview with Carlson on Wednesday. The Levin-Carlson feud, for its part, has escalated into a larger split between pro-war and anti-war conservative pundits.
President Donald Trump himself came to Levin’s defense this week, with a lengthy Truth Social post in which he championed the pundit and derided his critics.
