Laura Loomer has not-so-quietly emerged as one of the most influential figures in MAGA media, but who the hell is she and where did she come from? This episode seeks to explain how a person who is now known for eating dog food on camera came to wield so much power over one of the most powerful countries in the history of the world.
Will Sommer, a reporter for The Bulwark, joined Jared and Mike to dive deep into Laura’s prolific history as an attention-seeking influencer and bigoted far-right activist, covering everything from her tumultuous childhood to her notorious relationship to President Trump. They revisited the deep cuts and lost lore from Loomer's career, like the fact a guy lost part of his pinky finger when she handcuffed herself to Twitter's NYC office in 2018.
The episode also features a cameo from Nathan Bernard, who found himself at the center of one of Laura’s many legal dramas.
