Laura Loomer leads MAGA fans in warning Trump there is a ‘snake’ and a ‘traitor’ in his inner circle

Right-wing influencer and Trump associate Laura Loomer claims in an online post that she has “receipts” from a potential Donald Trump nominee whom she compared to a “snake” who should be prevented from joining the new administration.

Loomer, who waged an online war with Rep. Marjorie Taylore Greene after talking about Trump from a luxury box during the Alabama-Georgia game in September, turned her sights on former State Department official Morgan Ortagus, who according to her, she hoped for a top position. after.

The conspiracy theorist and provocateur, who traveled with Trump during the campaign before reportedly being kept off his plane, got engaged after Ortagus, a former Fox News spokesman and State Department spokeswoman, posted a photo of himself with Kash Patel , Trump’s controversial nominee for the FBI. Director. (FBI Director Chris Way has three years left in his 10-year term, and Trump critics have dismissed the move as a retaliatory power play).

The association would be a way for someone in Trump’s inner circle to establish bona fides with the “Deep State” warrior whose coming appointment sent shockwaves through DC.

To counter this, Loomer posted an image of Ortagus in a Jeb Bush T-shirt and an image appearing with former Trump rival Nikki Haley at an event for her national security consultancy — photos apparently intended to portray her as a RINO, an endangered species in the country. Trump world. She then called Ortagus a “snake” and implied that she wasn’t a true MAGA supporter.

‘I love Kash Patel. He has always been a strong supporter of the J6 Patriots and has even raised money for them. Morgan Ortagus is a snake hated by all her colleagues at the State Department, and she is a traitor to Trump,” Loomer wrote, referring to people who stormed the Capitol.

She then turned to Patel, claiming she “had coupons so you can protect yourself from this snake.”

Loomer said Ortagus and her business partners were “all working against Trump, just in case she told you otherwise,” she advised. She said Ortagus hoped to become deputy defense minister, a powerful post. Trump’s pick for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is under fire after being accused of taking part in drunken strip club escapades.

She hopes she can become deputy secretary of defense after Trump names Rep. Elise Stefanik” as his choice to become U.S. ambassador to the U.N. “instead of Morgan,” she wrote.

“I think we’ve all had enough of Morgan’s many years of social advancement in MAGA at the State Department,” she told her 1.3 million followers on X.

Then her criticism of a sharp turn toward personal attacks based on religion, saying that her “twin sister married a Muslim man” and that she “divorced her first husband and married a wealthy, politically connected Jew in DC and that her marriage was officiated by the ultra’. – liberal SCOTUS Judge Ruth Bader Ginsberg.”

Reached by DailyMail.com, Ortagus had only a brief response. “I’m in expeditionary combat training,” the Marine reservist said. She said she hadn’t heard from the mail and had to go.

Several figures in Trump’s inner circle have rejected Loomer. But Trump defended her in September after she accompanied him to the September 11 ceremonies, despite her advancing a bizarre conspiracy theory that the attacks were an “inside job.”

“Laura has been a supporter of mine. Just like a lot of people are supporters, and she’s been a supporter of mine. She speaks very positively about the campaign. I’m not sure why you asked that question,” Trump said in California as he pressed the relationship.

‘I have no control over Laura. Laura – she’s a, she’s a free spirit. Well, I don’t know. I mean, look, I can’t tell Laura what to do,” Trump said.

He was pressed for being close to Loomer after his debate with Vice President Kamala Harris after he mentioned another conspiracy theory about migrants eating people’s pets, a topic she had also raised.

He called her a “private citizen and long-time supporter.” I don’t agree with the statements she has made, but like the many millions of people who support me, she is tired of seeing radical left Marxists and fascists violently attack and vilify me, even to the point of do everything to stop their political opponent, ME. !’

DailyMail.com has contacted Ortagus’ firm Polaris National Security for comment.

In the after that drew Loomer’s ire, Ortagus wrote, “A beautiful Sunday lunch with 45/47 and the next @FBI director, my friend kash_patel.” She posted a photo of himself with Trump the day before the election.
