Laura Loomer Says Right-Wing 'Grifters' Using Trump-Epstein For Own Benefit
Newsweek ^ | 7/18/2025 | Nick Mordowanec

Posted on 07/20/2025 5:25:11 AM PDT by marcusmaximus

Conservative commentator Laura Loomer voiced her displeasure with the "weaponized narrative" she claims is surrounding the relationship of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, blaming the media and Democrats, as well as right-wing "grifters" like Tucker Carlson, who she said are using the ongoing story for their own enrichment.

-snip-

"Carlson said he hates Trump, and the only reason why he pretends to like Trump is because he's now a defendant and the majority of his audience is people who like Trump—even though he's rapidly pushing those people away because he's become Jew obsessed and he's being bankrolled by Muslims," she said.

Newsweek reached out to Carlson via email for comment.

Loomer also called the Wall Street Journal story a "hoax" perpetuated by media obsession over the Epstein files, saying that people are now starting to realize that this "narrative is being weaponized to attack President Trump."

“Loomer also called the Wall Street Journal story a “hoax”
**********************************

Well she’s at least right about that. But she’s wrong about Tucker. Tucker is just expressing the views held by close to half of MAGA. MAGA is becoming divided along the lines of pro Israel/anti Israel. That might not be apparent to those who are mainly exposed to this forum which is primarily pro Israel but looking around other sites you will readily notice the divide.

Loomer just sucks up to Trump because she’s hoping for a spot in his administration. But Trump is unlikely to bring her aboard because she’s something of a loose cannon.

it is rampant on this site.

I pointed out that Israel was involved in Iran Contra as was Epstein.

An idiot poster bashed me saying I was a “joo hater”

It is a FACT that israel was selling arms to Iran on our behalf. After the first sale only resulted in one released hostage Reagan then authorized more sales.

Israel was trying to help the US. But somehow an idiot poster equates that to a “joo hater”

FWIW, I don’t listen to Bannon, Charlie Kirk, Benny Johnson, Laura Loomer, Mark Levin, or Tucker Carlson.

But they claim to represent “conservative” values now that Rush has passed.

Probably because the New Drudge Report, Citizens Free Press has passed along to them a “conservative” megaphone which wants folk to think they represent the best interests of MAGA.

As I’ve posted before I reject the notion that there are two distinct parties in mighty opposition.

There is only one party in America and Trump is not a member although I’m starting to have my doubts as Trump’s new foreign policy team appears to be his Balkan wife, Goober Grahamnesty and Stolen Valor Blumenthal.

Same goes for “conservative” as it has been so misappropriated a label as to be near meaningless.

It has become meaningless since Rush passed, and there is not a uniting force to keep a true conservative standard.

And the folk claiming to be “conservative” are so fickle.

I NEVER trusted MTG and often made comments calling her the Republican AOC and took heat from MTG fanboys for doing so.

Now if that latest house vote is any indication, she appears to be cozying up to Omar and Talib and may be replacing AOC on the squad.

I’ve been listening to Mark Halperin but he is NO conservative nor does he claim to be.

He reports from “sources” which are from Elite Stream Media but serve as useful information nonetheless.

I don’t listen to Megyn Kelly’s podcast but I do pay attention to some of her content that’s been aggregated to other platforms.

She’s often more on point the great bloviator Ted O’Baxter which is the nickname given to Bill O’Reilly by Rush.

Loomer actually reminds me a bit of Tucker as they are both given to hysterical rants.

DJT has made the same mistake with Bondi that he made with Fauci — tell them to take care of a problem and never circle back to check on progress — that is why he was so blindsided at the press conference.

Not releasing the files (forget any rumored list) is a betrayal of his campaign promise. Telling any who would ask “why” that he no longer wants their support — well, OK, then pi$$ off, fella.

The Demos know there is nothing there. SDNY thoroughly sanitized it. But, thru the DEI hire the Demos have backed DJT into a corner. A corner he won’t leave — so MAGA is split.

2026 IM&RE. Impeach and remove when Demos sweep the midterms. Get Vance in there to rebuild leading up to 2028. DJT has doomed himself.

I miss Rush. It’s been a free for all mess since he passed.

She’s been calling out Tucker’s funding by Muslims and Jew hate for the past year.

You keep repeating this LIE. Carlson has denied receiving any money from any interest group, domestic or foreign. There is no evidence of it. Your stupid narrative probably comes from the fact he spoke at World Governments Summit in Dubai in February 2024 - along with the President of India, Turkey, the head of Fox News, etc... He praised Dubai as a clean and well-managed city, which it is, and contrasted it with chaotic and addict-filled American cities, which is also true.

Besides your constant spam and propaganda, what do you contribute here?

Yeah even the most mild criticism of Israel can get you branded as a Jew hater by some on here. They act as if criticizing the actions of a foreign government translates into hating all Jews or something which is crazy.

Tucker Carlson claims he was attacked by a demon

what does this have to do with your nonsense about Carlson being a paid agent of a mid-east government?

Besides, the concept of demons being active among humans, and that humans are subject to their influence and attack is a FUNDAMENTAL belief among all Christians. Catholic Church doctrine even specifies and divides demonic influence and attack into distinct categories.

Carlson claims to be a Christian. So of course he believes this.

I DARE you to tell your propaganda targets here on FR that demonic influence doesn't exist.

You are revealing yourself, Mucus.

If Tucker was Christian, he wouldn’t be hating on Israel and pimping for Muslims.

'It has become meaningless since Rush passed, and there is not a uniting force to keep a true conservative standard.'

What a joke. The entire point of Rush was to hinder nationalism and populism. He spent the entire 90's bashing populism. He was the biggest proponent of NAFTA, GATT and the rest of the free trade issues we've suffered from. He kept his mouth shut on illegal immigration until it was too late, and carried the water for the gop time and again. The idea that he was the gold standard of 'conservatism' is absurd.

No, the actual joke is your post here. Rush was the epitomy of Conservativism in every way. Your comment that he “carried the water for the GOP” gives you away... since it’s obvious, Captain, that Rush was on the right side of politics and was therefore pro-GOP. But hey, thanks for self-identifying as what you are. It saves a lot of time.

I would encourage you to take a little time review what conservatism is.

Print it out, read it outload and let your lips move.

Good observation.
