Laura Loomer is advising Trump to turn against MAGA heroes like Tucker Carlson, report claims

Far-right conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer is advising Donald Trump on who is disloyal to MAGA during late-night phone calls between the pair, according to a new report.

The 32-year-old, self-styled journalist is known to be a close confidante of the president and has successfully campaigned for the dismissal of multiple national security officials in recent months.

Loomer began her career at Project Veritas, a right-wing organization known for its often discredited undercover videos, and has twice run unsuccessfully for Congress. She hosts a twice-weekly podcast, “Loomer Unleashed.”

She has also applied for press credentials to cover the White House, after failing to get a job within the Trump administration. She has not yet been granted the accreditation, according to the Wall Street Journal.

... I hope they rip each other's throats out.

Figuratively, of course.

Reason, decency, honesty... they seem impervious to those things. Their own toxic BS turned inward might just do it though.
