On Tuesday’s broadcast of MS NOW’s “The Briefing,” host Jen Psaki argued that former Director of the National Counterterrorism Center Joe Kent “was unqualified for the job” and “had a history of associating with far-right figures and peddling debunked January 6 conspiracies.” But his departure is “also a sign that Trump isn’t telling the truth about the reason for this war.” Psaki said, “Joe Kent was not some kind of career bureaucrat with a long history of intelligence work, or really a person with a history of any intelligence work whatsoever.
