In mid-July, far-right activist Laura Loomer fired off a lengthy post on X targeting a senior Customs and Border Protection official, accusing him of having "Anti-Trump, pro-Open Borders, and Pro-DEI Bias," and demanding his removal from the federal government.
"Why is this guy a Senior national security advisor at CBP, and why is he the Director of the National Vetting Center at @CBP?" Loomer wrote of the official, Monte Hawkins, who served under four presidents, both Democrat and Republican, and was previously appointed by the Trump administration in 2018.
Less than 48 hours later, after also sending an appeal directly to the Department of Homeland Security, Loomer says an official personally contacted her, thanked her for amplifying the information, and later informed her that Hawkins had been removed.
"I posted my report 2 days ago. Now he's FIRED," Loomer wrote on X. When asked about Hawkins' status, a DHS official told ABC News that Hawkins was placed on administrative leave.
The episode is a clear example not only of how Loomer's pressure campaigns operate, but how she has increasingly carved out an unofficial but influential role as a political enforcer targeting administration officials she sees as disloyal to President Donald Trump.
'I don't keep count anymore' In Trump's second term, Loomer's efforts to single out officials for removal are being treated with growing urgency by the federal agencies she targets -- handing an outside ally of Trump a significant level of power.
Loomer, who got her start as an undercover operative for the right-wing sting group Project Veritas, has been on a self-proclaimed mission to rid the administration of officials she says are disloyal to the president -- particularly those who served under the Biden administration or have previously disparaged Trump -- including some who served in Trump's first term.

If she puts the good of country above the good of self…no issues. But she has a few…achilles heel qualities. And self-sabotages.
She's nuts. But in her case, it's an asset.
Trump has good judgement. Usually.
I think he's wiser this time around. And that's because he has experience and unlike his first term, he's not new to the "Swamp".
In my view the good outweighs the bad with her. She has exposed s number of disloyal saboteurs. I remember she revealed that SS agents who were being used as Hunters servants in Africa.
Her latest target is Tucker Carlson. For that, I give her kudos. Tucker is a fraud and a grifter.
Anyone outing deep-state moles is good in my book.
always liked her. she has guts and good instincts about politicos. she’s been a double plus for the conservative movement. and i have supported her financially. sure i disagree with her on occasion. nobody’s perfect.
Nuts is just what we need to take back the country and MAGA.
SS? They must be really old.
It just goes to prove. The infiltration started a long time ago.
And have a funny accent.
“It just goes to prove. The infiltration started a long time ago.”
During the New Deal years, but it really got going during the Clinton administration. While Old Dirty Bill was scarfing up interns and triangulating, Hillary and her pals started loading up the government with radical leftists.
“always liked her. she has guts and good instincts about politicos. she’s been a double plus for the conservative movement. and i have supported her financially. sure i disagree with her on occasion. nobody’s perfect.”
Well said, me too. There is probably not one person out there more loyal to Trump than Loomer.
Laura is a convenient target. She is among many who influence the Trump administration. To me the most poisonous presidential influencers have been Valerie Jarrett and Jill Biden.
name someone who has even come close in outing deep state moles
I like that he is using unconventional means in this respect. Laura does have a few issues with, shall we say, sanity, at times, but she is dang good at what she does. Trump is wise to not bring her into the fold directly but still make use of her abilities to improve what he has going.
“Less than 48 hours later,”
One down and 1,500,000 worthless gummit employees to go.
Agreed ... we should still be in "enemy of my enemy" mode.
She’s also on the tail of some Biden billionaire embed at DOD. War Room had a long segment about it a few days ago.
