Trump Ally Laura Loomer Concedes Democrats “Were Right” On Key Issue

A party turning on itself

The far-right activist and outspoken Trump ally has turned her attention inward, launching a fierce attack on Tucker Carlson and, in the process, exposing deep cracks inside the MAGA movement.

It began with Carlson’s latest podcast episode featuring former congressman Matt Gaetz. The conversation touched on Israel, antisemitism, and claims that quickly stirred backlash. But for Laura Loomer, the issue went beyond one interview.

She saw it as something bigger.

“I told you this is what Tucker was doing,” Loomer wrote on X. “He’s trying to have a hostile takeover of the GOP to destroy MAGA & redefine the GOP into modern-day Hitler youth with a drizzle of Sharia Law on top.”

That message spread fast.

For Loomer, Carlson is no longer just a media figure. She paints him as a threat to the heart of the Republican Party. And she made it clear she believes his influence is pulling conservatives in a dangerous direction.

From there, the fight widened.

Loomer began calling out other right-wing figures she feels are enabling Carlson or staying silent. She took shots at Jack Posobiec and referenced tensions that boiled over at Turning Point USA’s recent AmericaFest event.

That gathering, meant to showcase unity, instead revealed growing divisions. Carlson and other conservative personalities openly clashed over ideology, antisemitism, and where the movement is headed.

Then Loomer crossed a line few in MAGA ever do.

“Maybe some of those Democrats were right when they called some people on the so called right Nazis,” she posted. She added that there is now “undeniable” evidence of a neo-Nazi problem on the right.

Coming from a Trump loyalist, the comment landed hard.

Loomer didn’t stop there. She warned that if Republicans refuse to deal with the issue, they could face serious losses in the 2026 and 2028 elections. It was not a threat aimed at Democrats. It was a warning aimed at her own side.

The moment revealed just how tense things have become.

For years, MAGA thrived on attacking outsiders. Now, the battles are happening inside the house. Old alliances are fraying. Media figures are clashing. And loyalty tests are growing harsher.

Carlson, once one of Trump’s loudest defenders, has become a polarizing force. His recent interviews and rhetoric have pushed boundaries, drawing praise from some and fury from others.

Loomer clearly falls in the second camp.

She has spent months trying to limit Carlson’s sway with Trump and the base.

Carlson has brushed her off before, once comparing her to “a child wielding a loaded firearm called Twitter.” His allies dismiss her attacks as overblown.
