The President's Mistress: A National Security Crisis
How did Laura Loomer gain such unprecedented access and the influence to decapitate the national security personnel.
The elephant in the room has a name: Laura Loomer.
As America's intelligence community reels from an unprecedented purge, the question isn't simply about the nature of her relationship with Trump. It doesn't matter to anyone who Trump sleeps with, but in this case we need to know how this femme fatale figure entered the President's inner circle and is now dictating national security personnel decisions.
If she's his mistress with no affiliations, you need to question why the President is taking personnel advice from her on matters of critical national security. If she's his mistress but in another sense – as the leading edge of an intelligence campaign – then there is the serious question: has the President been compromised?
Trump curiously calls Loomer a "patriot" and "influencer podcaster." He's already begun this narrative. But that explanation raises serious questions about the impact of her purge which disconnected a vital channel between the Ukrainian war operation and the White House – an outcome clearly in Putin's interest – and her documented history with disinformation campaigns like the Haitian pet-eating conspiracy.
