Summary

Laura Loomer criticized Elon Musk’s influence on Trump during an appearance on Steve Bannon’s War Room, accusing Musk and other tech leaders of being “welfare queens” reliant on government subsidies while seeking control over national defense.

Loomer also alleged Musk held secret meetings with Iranian and Chinese officials, raising national security concerns.

Her remarks align with growing criticism from MAGA loyalists, including Bannon, who warn of Musk’s outsized role during Trump’s transition.

    “Very obvious”? When I searched for that all I got was rumor and innuendo and mention of a defamation lawsuit she filed.

    But regardless, why is the immediate conclusion always that women use sex to advance their careers and that this makes them “whores”. Why is this always considered awful and distasteful but when men do it it’s celebrated?

    And ya, I can’t believe I’m defending this piece of garbage.

        I think it’s telling that (a) you see an affair there; (b) you assume that an affair reflects more poorly on Looner than it does Trump.

        Bonus: ( c ) You think the Times of India is a good place to get factual information.

          a - I have eyes

          b - there is very few people for whom an affair with trump would reflect less poorly than on trump

          c - quality of their journalism doesn’t matter here since the photos are what I wanted to share with you

            So you make assumptions. With your eyes and your prejudice. Oh look, they may have had some vague physical contact, I guess she must be some kinda whore.

            Same old show.

            And she thinks 9/11 I was a false flag inside job.

            Yes. And THAT is one of the many reasons she’s a shitty human. Not the fact that she’s a woman.
