“It’s not totally clear what Laura Loomer, the 32-year-old conspiracy monger and right-wing media personality, means to President Donald Trump. She really, really doesn’t like it when people call her an influencer or an adviser to the president, and, technically, she’s not a lobbyist — although that’s becoming increasingly complicated within Trumpworld. Loomer is also not officially employed by the White House or the federal government. Whatever she is, Trump’s advisers have officially grown tired of her. And they hope that Trump may soon too. … Until recently, Loomer had established a role as something of a digital directed-energy weapon. The White House would keep her at a distance, but also let her rip when it was convenient for certain factions within the West Wing. … despite Loomer’s claims that she was almost hired by Trump on four separate occasions, an administration role remains elusive for her.” (06/02/25)
