WaPo: Joseph Kent, a former Green Beret and two-time GOP congressional hopeful who has been nominated by President Donald Trump to lead the National Counterterrorism Center, has been quietly working as the top aide to Tulsi Gabbard, the head of the U.S. spy community.

Kent, who stirred controversy during his congressional runs when links to far-right extremists and pro-Russian views emerged, has been serving as Director of National Intelligence Gabbard’s acting chief of staff, according to three people familiar with the matter, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the role has not been publicly announced.

Kent and Gabbard have supported one another’s political careers, with the former Hawaii congresswoman endorsing Kent and campaigning with him in 2022 in Washington state, and Kent posting online support for Gabbard’s nomination.

The two share a sympathetic view of Russia. Shortly after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Kent called President Vladimir Putin’s demands on Ukrainian territory “very reasonable.” Gabbard, for her part, initially repeated Russia’s 2022 baseless claim that there were U.S.-funded laboratories working on weaponizing biological pathogens in Ukraine. She later clarified her statement, saying she was “not convinced” there were biolabs in Ukraine, but was concerned about the existence of such labs in an active war zone.

I can't believe this is NOT SATIRE🤣🥴- Puddin wants back in: Joe Biden has told some Democratic leaders he’ll raise funds, campaign and do anything else necessary for Democrats to recover lost ground as the Trump administration rolls back programs the party helped design, according to people close to him.

Biden privately met last month with the new Democratic National Committee chairman, Ken Martin, and offered to help as the party struggles to regain its viability amid polling that shows its popularity has been sinking, the people said.

So far, Biden's overture seems to have fallen flat. Democrats find themselves adrift, casting about for a compelling messenger.

Whoever that is, it's not Biden, many party activists and donors contend. He's tethered to the 2024 defeat and, at 82, is a symbol more of the party's past than its future, they argue.

A spokesperson for the DNC didn’t provide a comment or make Martin available for an interview.

🤣🔥 After Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz said he believes he "could kick most [Trump supporters' a--," one of them has stepped up to the plate - and he is automatically the heavy favorite.

WWE legend Kane, who stands 7 feet tall and wrestled at over 300 pounds during his illustrious career, has challenged Walz to a charity wrestling match.

Kane, whose real name is Glenn Jacobs, now the mayor of Knox County in Tennessee, issued a challenge to Walz on Thursday

"All joking aside, @GovTimWalz, let's put our money where our mouth is...in a charity wrestling match. We'll split the gate 50/50 between our chosen organizations. I'll kick things off myself with a $10,000 donation. What do you say?"

I want to take a moment to wish one of our very own “Less Than 5” a very very special Happy 50th Birthday!
