US EditionLoomer, GOP senator push back on Trump NASA decision
- Laura Loomer, a far-right figure known for extremist views, has gained influence with President Trump by meeting him at Mar-a-Lago and speaking frequently on the phone.
- Her rise follows years of promoting conspiracy theories and anti-Muslim rhetoric, despite some GOP figures like Marjorie Taylor Greene opposing her inclusion in Trump's administration.
