The right-wing activist Laura Loomer met with President Donald Trump and pushed him to fire several members of the National Security Council and reports indicate that he had taken her advice.
Trump fired several members of the National Security Council, including senior directors, after the meeting, reports Axios. One US official said at the outlet that the firing was being a ‘massacre’. The New Yorktimes added that “at least three” senior NSC officials were fired.
It comes after Times For the first time, Loomer reported on Wednesday with Trump, Vice President JD Vance, National Security Advisor Mike Waltz and others in the Oval Office, armed with extensive research worked against several staff members.
While there, she pushed Trump to fire several members who claimed to be unfaithful, and even condemned two members before Waltz, their boss, Times.
The White House, the National Security Council and Loomer did not respond immediately The independent ‘‘s request for comment. But in a post on X, Loomer complained that “people in and around the Western wing” leaked details about her visit to the Oval Office.
‘Out of respect for [Trump] And the privacy of the Oval Office I will refuse to disclose any details about my Oval Office meeting with President Trump, ”she added.
In the aftermath of the Signalgate Snafu, after which many questioned what Waltz’s position was, Loomer took to social media to claim that he was somehow compiled to embarrass the Trump administration by what she described as a poorly prescribed rent in secretly opposed Trump.
She wrote on X last week and singled out two top NSC veterans who served in the first Trump administration: Deputy National Security Alex Wong and Senior Director of Asia Ivan Kanapathy.
In one long post, she refers to Wong-a Harvard-trained lawyer who is the son of Chinese immigrants and a veteran of Republican foreign policy circles than a ‘Chinese deputy adviser for national security’. She also complained that Wong’s wife, a career prosecutor in the Washington, DCUS attorney office, is a ‘Chinese woman’ who worked in the office at the time it had legal cases against Trump supporters who were part of a violent riot in the US Capitol in 2021.
‘Why do we have a Chinese deputy adviser to national security advisor who is married to a Chinese US lawyer who worked under Obama and Biden, and who helped to prosecute J6ers after the stolen election in 2020? It’s unacceptable, ‘she wrote.
Loomer also speculated whether Wong-not Waltz did not add the journalist to the narrow notorious signal “as part of a foreign OPP to embarrass the Trump administration on behalf of China,” and appealed to both Wong and his wife must be investigated by the Federal Bureau for Inquiry.
As for Kanapathy, another Republican expert on foreign policy serving in the first Trump white house stems with him from his decision to accept work at Beacon Global Strategies, an advisory firm for foreign policy that also signed a leading democrats who signed a letter from 2020 New York Post Report on a laptop related to former President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter.
Loomer wrote that she decided to work on the prominent consultation “not well considered the verdict of Ivan or his loyalty to President Trump” because the firm also employed former CIA director Mike Morrell and former CIA secretary Leon Panetta.
The head of the presidential staff Sergio Gor, Chief of Staff of the White House, Susie Wiles and White House Communication Director Steven Cheung, was also present for Loomer’s meeting with Trump, the Times Reports.
Loomer, who describes herself as an ‘investigative journalist’, is a right-wing Maga loyalist and conspiracy theorist who came to a prominence during the first Trump administration when she started screaming herself on the prominent Democrats.
Since then, she has distributed a number of unfounded claims, including that terrorist attacks were a ‘work’ on September 11, 2001 and that the wife of Florida Governor Ron Desantis lied about breast cancer. She enjoyed some proximity to Trump, despite the reservations of many of his leading assistants.
Loomer even struggled with the leader of the Department of Government Efficiency, Elon Musk, and stepped against the billionaire for supporting H-1B visas.
‘[Musk] Removed my blue check mark on X because I dared to question its support for H1B visas, replacing US technical workers by Indian immigrants, and I questioned his relationship with China, ”Loomer posted in January.
