Details about Laura Loomer's personal relationships are not widely reported. She has maintained a public focus on her political activism and career rather than personal life.

Her first stunt for Rebel Media was on June 16, 2017, when she disrupted a Shakespeare in the Park presentation of Julius Caesar in New York City, by walking on stage during the live performance shortly after the title character was assassinated. The Delacorte Theatre production reimagined Julius Caesar as Donald Trump with a Slovenian-accented actress as his wife, Calpurnia. Before being escorted offstage by security, Loomer shouted, "This is violence against Donald Trump! Stop the normalization of political violence against the right! This is unacceptable!" Loomer was arrested for disorderly conduct and criminal trespassing. Earlier in the week, performances of the play had elicited criticism for depicting women and minorities perpetrating the violent assassination of Trump as U.S. president.

In 2023, Loomer accused Casey DeSantis, wife of presidential candidate and Trump competitor Ron DeSantis, of exaggerating her bout with breast cancer to boost her husband's presidential campaign. Following the 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel, Loomer and other right-wing influencers amplified a false story claiming that October 13, 2023, was to be a global "day of jihad", a story that motivated a 71-year-old landlord in Illinois to stab to death a 6-year-old boy and attempt to murder his Muslim mother who were his tenants. After a fatal car crash in Long Beach on October 14, Loomer said that the crash was "Islamic terrorism", claiming that police had a gag order. Police later stated there was "no indication that this incident was an act of terror nor associated with the current violence in Israel".

Loomer used press credentials to attend the March 2018 trial of Noor Salman, the wife of the perpetrator of the June 2016 Orlando nightclub shooting. Her credentials were revoked after she harassed Salman's family; when she returned to the trial the next day, she was removed by a U.S. Marshal. In April 2018, Loomer disrupted an event promoting James Comey's book A Higher Loyalty before being removed from the building by security. In September 2018, she briefly interrupted a House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing. Shouting from the visitor gallery, she accused Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, who was testifying before the committee, of censoring conservatives on the platform and of attempting to influence elections in favor of Democrats. Republican representative Billy Long began a mock auction chant, pretending he was selling Loomer's mobile phone, until she was escorted out. The incident generated considerable laughter and applause from the audience. In October 2018, police escorted Loomer from a campaign event for Andrew Gillum, the Democratic nominee for governor of Florida.

Loomer has described herself as "pro-white nationalism", stating her belief that "liberals and left-wing globalist Marxist Jews" don't understand "a difference between white nationalism and white supremacy". Loomer has described her belief that "this country really was built as the white Judeo-Christian ethnostate" and that "immigration and all these calls for diversity, it's starting to destroy this country." Loomer called into an InfoWars interview with Kanye West to express her support for West's right to free speech, declaring herself "sympathetic" to West. Earlier in the interview, West had praised Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party. In response to Loomer's defense of him, West told Loomer, "[I] love you." In 2022, Loomer spoke at the annual conference of white supremacist publication American Renaissance. During this speech, Loomer referred to herself as a "white advocate" and called for a ten-year moratorium on immigration. Loomer has praised American Renaissance founder Jared Taylor and says she opposes "anti-white racism and anti-white hatred". She has additionally attended events with white supremacist Nick Fuentes, and has spoken at Fuentes' white nationalist gathering America First Political Action Conference. In 2017, Loomer claimed to be dating alt-right activist Tim Gionet, who had tweeted a photoshopped picture of Loomer being executed inside a gas chamber, referencing the killing of Jews during the Holocaust. Gionet denied that the pair were dating. Loomer has also expressed support for Christian nationalism. In an interview, Loomer said, in reference to birthright citizenship "I think you can only serve in office if you were actually born in this country. Not a birthright citizen anchor baby like Nikki Haley, but I don't want people like that in our country let alone in our congress."

Net Worth

Laura Loomer's net worth is not explicitly documented in available sources. However, her influence and activities suggest she may have a substantial following and financial support from her political endeavors.

In August 2017, she was one of several counter-jihad activists who were appointed "Shillman Fellows", with Robert J. Shillman contributing to her salary.

Career Highlights

Laura Loomer has been involved in several high-profile events and campaigns:

A "Free Laura" website, soliciting donations for her arrest, had been purchased by Loomer's employer, Rebel Media owner Ezra Levant, six hours before the play started. Loomer also promoted a crowdfunding page for donations, which received $12,385 from 241 contributors, more money than the normal penalties for the charges she was facing.

Social Network

Laura Loomer has faced significant challenges in maintaining a presence on major social media platforms. She has been banned from platforms like Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram for violating policies related to hate speech and misinformation. Despite these bans, she remains an active figure in political circles.

Loomer has gained notoriety as a result of being banned from numerous social media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, payment processors, vehicles for hire, and food delivery mobile apps for various reasons, including violating policies on hate speech and posting misinformation. Loomer has also been banned and removed from events, and had press credentials revoked, for harassment and causing disturbances.

The Public Theater New York responded by saying although they are "champions" of the First Amendment, the disruption was caused by "social media". On June 19, Alyssa Rosenberg of The Washington Post wrote that she did not believe Loomer was genuinely offended by the play, but was looking for attention and to collect a US$1,000 bounty that alt-right social media personality Mike Cernovich had offered to anyone who disrupted the production. Appearing on the Fox News program Hannity a few days after her arrest, Loomer said she knew that disrupting the play would result in criminal charges against her. During the interview, she objected to the depiction of Caesar in the play and accused the left of "systematically and programmatically" using "free expression as a pretext to incite violence".

Loomer continued to advocate for the presidential candidacy of Donald Trump in 2024, telling The Washington Post, "I'm happy to dedicate all my time to helping Trump, because if Trump doesn't get back in, I don't have anything." Loomer was brought as a guest by Trump to Philadelphia where he engaged in the September 10 presidential debate with opponent Kamala Harris. The following day, Loomer attended events alongside Trump commemorating the September 11 attacks. Loomer had previously endorsed claims that 9/11 "was an inside job". According to anonymous sources on the Trump campaign, Loomer reportedly influenced Trump to publicly endorse various false conspiracy theories, including the claim that Kamala Harris hid her black heritage and the claim that Haitian immigrants were eating other people's household pets in Ohio. Loomer also posted a tweet referencing stereotypes of Indians, saying that if Harris, who is half-East Indian, were elected President "the White House will smell like curry & White House speeches will be facilitated via a call center." Marjorie Taylor Greene, a far-right member of the United States House of Representatives, condemned this remark as "appalling and extremely racist".

Loomer has falsely claimed that school shootings in February 2018 in Parkland, Florida, and in May 2018 in Santa Fe, Texas, were staged, and that the perpetrator of the 2017 Las Vegas shootings was affiliated with ISIS. She claimed on Twitter that crisis actors were used for the Santa Fe school shooting.

In July 2018, Loomer said that a man arrested in South Dakota with bomb-making equipment and illegal weapons had been a "leftist antifa terrorist". According to the man's social media activity at the time, and per his brother, he was a conservative who despised liberals and Antifa. During the October 2018 United States mail bombing attempts, Loomer falsely said that the bombing attacks were a "false flag" operation orchestrated by Democrats.

In November 2023, Loomer was part of a study by the Atlantic Council, analyzed by Bloomberg, of Community Notes on Twitter regarding misinformation in the Gaza war. On October 12, she shared a video of a "pro-Hamas caravan" that had driven through London shouting racist abuse, implying the incident was recent. The video was, in fact, from May 2021, and police had made arrests after the incident. Loomer also tweeted false information about the 2023 Rainbow Bridge explosion in Buffalo, New York. She claimed the Federal Bureau of Investigation suspected a terrorist attack and that there may be a "Jihad plot" at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, despite the vehicle traveling on the U.S. side of the border towards Canada.

In 2023 and 2024, Loomer falsely attributed social media posts to family members of judges Arthur Engoron and Juan Merchan, who were overseeing court cases involving Donald Trump. Loomer inaccurately claimed these family members had called for Trump's imprisonment on social media. Loomer's misinformation was amplified by Trump to support his claims that Engoron and Merchan were biased against him.

Loomer lost the 2020 United States House of Representatives election in Florida's 21st congressional district to incumbent Democrat Lois Frankel. The district was heavily Democratic, and Loomer's candidacy was considered a long shot. Frankel had represented the district since 2012. Loomer defeated five opponents to win the Republican primary in August 2020, receiving 14,500 votes out of 34,000 cast (43%). President Donald Trump expressed support for Loomer, tweeting after her primary win, "Great going Laura. You have a great chance against a Pelosi puppet!" She also received endorsements from Florida Representative Matt Gaetz and Trump adviser Roger Stone. The White House later downplayed Trump's support for Loomer and for Congressional candidate Marjorie Taylor Greene, saying, "The president routinely congratulates people who officially get the Republican nomination for Congress, so he does that as a matter of course... He hasn't done a deep dive into the statements by these two particular women." After her primary victory, Twitter and Facebook reiterated that they would not unban her.

Blogging platform Medium banned Loomer in February 2017 after expanding its platform policies to ban posting disinformation and expanding its policies against hate speech. Loomer was banned from both Uber and Lyft in November 2017 after a day-long anti-Muslim, which included tweets about not being able to find a "non Muslim [sic] cab or @Uber @lyft driver". Twitter banned Loomer in November 2018 for violating its policies against hateful conduct. After the ban, she handcuffed herself to Twitter's headquarters in New York for two hours before police cut through the handcuffs at her request. In February 2019, Loomer was banned from PayPal, GoFundMe, and Venmo. In response, she said that "left wing terrorists and tech tyrants" were "trying to shut [her] down" and that she would "stop at nothing to make sure justice is served for the way Silicon Valley has disenfranchised me, falsely accusing me of being a white supremacist, a Nazi, anti-Muslim, a racist, a bigot, and every other smear in the book." Loomer was one of several right-wing activists banned by Facebook and Instagram in 2019 for using the platforms to post misinformation and extremism. In May 2021, she said she was banned from the social media app Clubhouse hours after joining.

Loomer was banned from the 2019 Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) after aggressively confronting reporters, using her press credentials to follow them into a media-only area after they had declined to speak with her. In particular, she heckled CNN reporter Oliver Darcy with questions about internet censorship and social media bans.

In 2018, after Loomer was banned by various social media companies, she sued Twitter, Apple, Facebook, and Google. The lawsuit, in which she was represented by right-wing activist lawyer Larry Klayman, alleged that the platforms had collaborated to suppress conservative speech. The district court dismissed the case, and the U.S. Court of Appeals upheld the dismissal; the courts held that social media companies could not violate the First Amendment because they are not governmental bodies. In 2021, the Supreme Court denied Loomer's petition to hear the case.

After Twitter banned Loomer in 2018, she and her company, Illoominate Media, sued the Council on American–Islamic Relations (CAIR), claiming it had conspired with Twitter to ban her. The lawsuit was thrown out after Nathan Bernard, known for pranking prominent alt-right personalities, admitted he had fabricated the rumor that CAIR was behind the ban. In 2020, Loomer lost an appeal of the case, with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit ruling that "Loomer and Illoominate offer nothing beyond vague speculation to indicate that CAIR-Florida was involved in the alleged conspiracy". In 2021, a U.S. magistrate judge ordered Loomer to reimburse more than $120,000 in attorney's fees to CAIR.

In 2022, Loomer again sued Facebook and Twitter, alleging their anti-hate speech policies constitute racketeering. This suit was also dismissed, on grounds of both res judicata and Section 230.

Loomer has been described by various sources as far-right, a white nationalist (a self-described proud one, at that), as well as alt-right, and alt-lite, and has described herself as a proud Islamophobe. Cultural critic James Wolcott called her a "raging zealot... intent on becoming the agent provocateur". Loomer has denounced the alt-right and publicly repudiated white supremacist Richard B. Spencer (who coined the term) and refused to share a stage with him. She received antisemitic threats and harassment from the alt-right after this dispute. However, Loomer has indicated she supports white nationalism, claiming it is distinct from white supremacy and that white nationalists "need effective leaders—people who aren't Richard Spencer, people who aren't James Allsup—to effectively convey that message." She is also reportedly close to white nationalist and antisemite Nick Fuentes, toasting him for "the hostile takeover of the Republican Party" in 2024.

Loomer has repeatedly espoused anti-Muslim views. On November 1, 2017, the day after a terrorist attack in New York City, Loomer tweeted that she was late to a conference because she could not find a "non Muslim [sic] cab or @Uber @lyft driver". After it became known that the suspect in the attack was a former driver for Uber, she called for the creation of a new ride-sharing company that did not employ Muslims. Her day-long tweetstorm blamed all Muslims for the activities of radical Islamists such as ISIS. Subsequently, both Uber and Lyft announced that she had violated their guidelines and was banned from using their services. She described herself on Twitter at the time as a "#ProudIslamophobe" and called for a complete and permanent ban on Muslims entering the United States.

In August 2018, Loomer disrupted a congressional campaign event for Minnesota Democrat Ilhan Omar, which Rashida Tlaib attended. Loomer shouted questions that implied that Tlaib was antisemitic. In November of that year, Twitter banned Loomer from its platform for violating its rules against hateful behavior. According to Loomer, she was banned for a tweet about Omar in which Loomer called her "anti-Jewish," and a member of a religion in which "homosexuals are oppressed," and women are "abused" and "forced to wear the hijab". A week after the ban, she handcuffed herself to a door at Twitter's New York City headquarters in protest while wearing a yellow "Jude" patch. After approximately two hours, police removed the handcuffs with a bolt cutter at her request. Loomer was not arrested.

In February 2019, Loomer traveled to Minnesota with Jacob Wohl, a right-wing perpetrator of Internet fraud, and Ali Alexander, a far-right activist. The group said they were "investigating" whether Omar had married her brother so that he could obtain U.S. citizenship, a baseless rumor that had circulated in Minnesota politics since 2016. Wohl, Loomer, and Alexander were unable to find any immigration irregularities by Omar. A few weeks later, in March 2019, Wohl and Loomer were ejected from the 2019 CPAC when they attempted to present evidence from their trip to Minnesota. Loomer had previously accosted Omar with the same unsubstantiated allegations at the August 2018 Omar campaign event, the one attended by Tlaib. In 2019, Loomer uploaded a video to Instagram about Omar, blaming her and all Muslims for the September 11 attacks and asserting that "Muslims should not even be allowed to seek positions of political office in this country."

Loomer has described herself as a nationalist and stated that immigrants who refuse to assimilate are a threat to American heritage. In response to a news story about the drowning of 2,000 migrants in the Mediterranean Sea, Loomer expressed her approval of the migrant deaths, tweeting, "Good. Here's to 2,000 more." According to Media Matters, Loomer has endorsed the white nationalist Great Replacement theory, accusing the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society of "facilitating the invasion of America", and has stated that "so many rich Jews have a fixation on trying to destroy America." Asked in 2017 by Haaretz about her views as a Jew participating in an "anti-sharia" event where the neo-Nazi group Identity Evropa was visibly present, Loomer replied, "Oh, this is like an identitarian group. I'm not totally familiar, but I know they believe in preserving white European culture; there is nothing wrong with that, and they are nationalist."

Loomer disapproved of the selection of Pope Leo XIV, who she described as "Just another Marxist puppet in the Vatican" and "anti-Trump, anti-Maga, pro-open Borders, and a total Marxist like Pope Francis".

Education

There is limited information available about Laura Loomer's educational background. Her career has been more defined by her activism and work with various organizations rather than formal education.

She and her two brothers were raised in Arizona. She attended Mount Holyoke College in Massachusetts, leaving after one semester; she said she felt targeted for being conservative. She transferred to Barry University in Miami Shores, Florida, and graduated in 2015 with a bachelor's degree in broadcast journalism. Loomer is Jewish.

In March 2015, Loomer used a concealed video camera to record her conversations with Barry University officials, discussing the idea of starting a club called "Sympathetic Students in Support of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria". The school apparently asked only that the club's name be changed to "Students in Support of the Middle East". James O'Keefe of Project Veritas, a right-wing organization known for producing secretly recorded and deceptively edited undercover audio and video investigations about media organizations and left-leaning groups, released the video of the encounter, alleging that it captured a university official unfazed by the idea of an on-campus organization to support ISIS. Shortly thereafter, the university suspended Loomer for violating the student code of conduct and a professor shown in the video filed criminal charges against her for recording him without his knowledge. At the time, Loomer was an honors student in her senior year and the president of Barry University's Young Republicans Club.
