Laura Loomer Is Turning Against MAGA Stalwarts [View all]

The Trump loyalist is fighting with Tucker Carlson, others as some White House officials have grown concerned about her influence

President Trump confidante Laura Loomer has successfully campaigned for the ouster of more than a dozen national security officials and others she has accused of secretly working against the president’s “Make America Great Again” agenda.

Now she is training her considerable firepower inside the MAGA tent. In recent weeks, the right-wing conspiracy theorist has:

Gone after former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, dubbing him “Tucker Qatarlson” who is being “bought off by the Muslim Brotherhood,” and attacking his son who works for Vice President JD Vance;

Accused Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of funneling government money to her own daughter and called her a “loud-mouthed bitch.”
