Only months after Donald Trump Jr. floated Laura Loomer as a White House press secretary, Loomer used her platform on Rumble to launch into a half-hour long racist screed against Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Somalians living in America, birthright citizenship, and Muslims. Loomer begun the show by referring to Rep. Omar as a "black dog" whose "district is literally Somalia," and claimed that Omar's constituents are "breeding like rabbits. I guess they've never heard of something called birth control. Unfortunate for us. Unfortunate for Western civilization" and "modern-day jihadi welfare queens." After claiming that Rep. Omar's relatives "sleep in caves and have sex with goats in Al-Shabaab," Loomer declared "I really do believe in IQ science," "some of the people that have the lowest IQs are Somalis," and claimed that Rep. Omar is "so inbred that they have an IQ that is legally classified as mental retardation": Loomer also ran with a blatant mistranslation of Omar's speech about the Republic of Somaliland. Later, she also used line taken blatantly out of context of Omar speaking about 9/11.

    Exactly, I don’t mean outright intentionally (at first anyway). I’m amazed that Trump or Greene or Boebert… one of the nuts… hasn’t slipped up yet.

      Ah, fair. My bet is if it happens, it’ll be mid rant at one of Trumps little fascism pep rallies.
