1:00:52Now PlayingIn this exclusive interivew, Joe Kent, former Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, explains how his investigations into both the Butler, Pennsylvania assassination attempt on Trump and the murder of Charlie Kirk were shut down by FBI Director Kash Patel, who told him the cases were closed. Kent asserts that the Butler shooting was linked to an FBI operation involving an Iranian operative, but his efforts to investigate Crooks' foreign connections were blocked, while the Charlie Kirk probe was stopped despite "unanswered questions" and warnings from Kirk himself about the Iran war.
Kent also reveals to Jimmy that Kirk confronted him in the White House weeks before his death, telling him, "Joe, stop us from getting into a war with Iran," and that his resignation came after the administration's Iran war policy was driven by Israeli influence and media pressure. The discussion also covers the formation of a new "America First" third party with Tucker Carlson, Thomas Massie, and Marjorie Taylor Greene, aimed at challenging the establishment in 2028.
