During a flight aboard Air Force One, President Trump confirmed recent dismissals in the National Security Council (NSC) and acknowledged Laura Loomer's advisory role. Loomer, known for her conspiracy theories and controversial rhetoric, has become a significant figure in Trump's political circle. Despite her abrasive stance against members of Trump's team, Trump praised her as a "very good patriot." Meanwhile, a Reuters report detailed questionable backgrounds of operatives within Elon Musk's Government Efficiency unit, raising concerns over their past engagements in hacking.
Speaking aboard Air Force One on Thursday, Trump confirmed the NSC dismissals and acknowledged Loomer's role in advising him. "She makes recommendations ... and sometimes I listen to those recommendations ... I listen to everybody and then I make a decision," he said.
Loomer, who has promoted conspiracy theories about the 9/11 attacks and espoused anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim rhetoric, has become an increasingly vocal presence within Trump's political orbit. "Laura Loomer is a very good patriot," Trump said on Thursday. "She is a very strong person."
