  1. > Laura Loomer still isn’t done with Elon Musk.

    > Appearing on Steve Bannon’s War Room, the anti-immigration activist on Monday torched the billionaire as a “welfare queen” and technocrat with outsize influence on U.S. politics thanks to his ongoing relationship with Donald Trump.

    > “If you have a bunch of tech bros with billions of dollars and direct unfettered access to the vice president and the president of the United States, and then they are also very cordial with our adversaries as in China and Iran—we see that Elon Musk is having these meetings off the books with Iranian officials, with Chinese officials—what does that mean for us?” Loomer posited.

    > The self-described “white advocate” has been in a social media brawl with the Tesla CEO for the last week over Musk’s ardent defense of the H-1B work visa program, which he claimed offers a solution to a “permanent shortage of excellent engineering talent” in the U.S. Far-right opponents of the immigration program—and Musk’s position—claim that the H-1B visa disincentivizes companies to hire American labor.

    > In several posts, Loomer accused Musk of having “bought his way into MAGA,” claimed he was a pawn of China, and said that the “divorce” between the “stage 5 clinger” and President-elect Donald Trump was on the horizon.

    > That was apparently enough back talk to strip Loomer of her verified status on the site—a loss that, for her, warranted a public appeal to Musk to reinstate her blue check. Loomer has been banned from practically every other social media platform for her incendiary and violent rhetoric.

    > The H-1B visa program has an annual cap set by Congress, admitting 65,000 foreign workers per year. In 2023, it was estimated that there were more than 700,000 H-1B visa holders in the U.S., according to data from the American Immigration Council.

  3. She’s wanting access to turmp again. Must be jealous of President Elect Musk using up trump’s time?

  5. When the Billionaire Tech Bros want to hire cheap foreign engineers rather than hiring US engineers I can see how it would get the MAGA crowd up in a tizzie.

  6. Nothing is more enjoyable that maggots eating each others faces

  7. I’m waiting to see who emerges as the next Pied Piper of MAGA.

  8. She’s just riding the coattails of insanity all the way to the bank.

  9. Have never agreed with nutcase Loomer on anything….but, darn, she’s got Musk pegged

  10. Well Musky did take her place in Trump’s bed now

  14. This is nothing but a deep jealousy over Leon being Trump’s new significant other. Loomer is a filthy, vile racist with no redeeming qualities. She was in tight with the Cheeto for a little while, then opened her fat mouth and got banished to the outskirts. Let her sulk and whine.

  15. Loomer and Bannon are nuts, and poors. Trump has Vivek and Elon.

  16. “Ah… it’s nothing personal laura and stevie 2-shirts… it’s only shitloads of money you all can’t show me.”

  17. How does looney pay her rent ? Who pays this lunatics bills ?

  18. Good. Let’s make sure this continues. Maybe if this continues after the transition it will show even MAGA die-hards that their elected officials are inept and ineffectual sycophants. Probably not though.
