Laura Loomer Runs Tip Line Amid Hundreds of Trump Official Firings

Laura Loomer, a far-right MAGA activist and loyal supporter of President Trump, has established a tip line for Trump administration staffers to report colleagues deemed disloyal, fueling a purge of government officials. This campaign has contributed to the dismissal or blocked promotions of more than a dozen high-ranking officials across various federal agencies, including the Pentagon, National Security Council, and FDA, reflecting President Trump's unprecedented zero-tolerance stance on loyalty. Loomer, who has direct access to the West Wing and is viewed as a key influencer in personnel decisions, describes the tip line as a form of therapy for officials eager to expose and remove those perceived as insufficiently committed to the MAGA agenda. She anticipates hundreds more removals in what she calls a "serious vetting crisis," targeting not only Biden-era holdovers but also Trump appointees considered disloyal. Recent high-profile firings linked to Loomer's efforts include the FDA's top vaccine regulator and a former Biden official at West Point, underscoring the administration's deepening reliance on outside far-right figures to shape its workforce. Allies of President Trump praise the intensified loyalty demands as a new level of scrutiny within the current administration.
