Trump-whisperer Laura Loomer sharpens her knives for Pam Bondi
Politico ^ | By JACOB WENDLER

Posted on 07/11/2025 5:22:52 PM PDT by NoLibZone

MAGA activist Laura Loomer has set her sights on ousting Attorney General Pam Bondi, as the White House fends off fury from the president’s base over its handling of the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s criminal case and death.

Loomer called on FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino to ask for Bondi’s public resignation Friday morning, writing on social media that Patel and Bongino had clashed with Bondi over the investigation.

Loomer also claimed that Bongino had taken the day off from work “to evaluate whether or not he wants to continue his position,” which POLITICO has not independently confirmed. Axios later reported that Bongino did not attend work on Friday after butting heads with Bondi earlier this week.

“Pam Blondi is very damaging to President Trump’s image. She drags the administration down and the base doesn’t want her as AG,” Loomer wrote in a post on X. “She is harming Trump’s administration and she’s embarrassing all of his staff and advisors by creating a PR crisis for them. It’s incredibly unfair to President Trump and his team.”

In a statement, White House spokesperson Harrison Fields disavowed reports of infighting surrounding the investigation within the administration. “President Trump has assembled a highly qualified and experienced law and order team dedicated to protecting Americans, holding criminals accountable, and delivering justice to victims,” Fields said. “This work is being carried out seamlessly and with unity. Any attempt to sow division within this team is baseless and distracts from the real progress being made in restoring public safety and pursuing justice for all.”

The Trump administration announced Monday night that a DOJ and FBI review found no evidence that Epstein, who died by suicide in 2019 in a New York jail cell, kept an incriminating “client list” long sought after by conspiracy theorists.

Loomer’s pressure campaign is the latest development in an episode of Republican infighting about the investigation, with MAGA supporters fuming at Bondi’s Justice Department for not releasing more information about its findings.

Loomer, who has sought an official role in the administration, has long had the president’s ear, repeatedly targeting those whom she views as disloyal to the president.

In April, Loomer took credit for Trump’s firing of several National Security Council officials and criticized Trump’s pick to be the Pentagon’s top lawyer, accusing him of seeking to undermine Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. She has met with senior administration officials — including Vice President JD Vance — and continues to have sway over the president’s online base.

Even so, Trump has at times attempted to distance himself from Loomer, who has a history of promoting far-right conspiracy theories and has described herself as a “proud Islamophobe,” with some Republicans warning that Trump’s ties to the far-right activist could cost him votes in the 2024 election.

In a Friday morning social media post, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche wrote that he worked closely with Patel and Bongino on the memo and that all three officials signed off on the memo’s contents and conclusions.

“The suggestion by anyone that there was any daylight between the FBI and DOJ leadership on this memo’s composition and release is patently false,” Blanche wrote.

The DOJ referred to Blanche’s statement, and the FBI did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Yes, we should allow Politico set the story straight for the benefit of MAGA.

for not releasing more information about its findings.

How can you expect more information when they say they've got nothing - unless they [well, she] are/is lying.

I don't know what's going on with Bongino. I had a sneaky feeling that he would regret accepting the job in the Trump admin, but until he comes out and says he's resigning his position, I think everyone should stop speculating on what's going on.

That said, if he does resign and goes back to his podcast (and someone else here on FR mentioned this as well) he should probably take a few weeks off, decompress, get his emotions and thoughts in order, and make a prepared statement on what exactly went down and why, IF HE'S ABLE, when he does return.

I fear this whole Epstein debacle is going to turn into a real mess. Bongino may be able to set things straight for us, but again, he has to be measured in how he does it or else the government (and whoever else he pisses off) could come after him and his family. Presonally, I wouldn't blame him at all if he went into hiding.

That doesn’t mean that she is not right. Put me in the “Islamophobe” column.

It will not matter what we think about Bondi.

Both the establishment press and the webcasters are going to mock her endlessly until she is gone.

An even bigger sign was what she did to George Zimmerman.

Bondi is a political ladder climber.

This is friendly territory compared to the “Wild West” out there on the rest of the web—and I am talking about right wing podcasters and videocasters.

Folks who do not venture out there have no idea what is happening...
