GET ME REWRITE: Loopy Laura Loomer is the boss of Donald Trump

 
Headline and subhead:  New York Times, 7/30/2025


Robert Draper, Julian E. Barnes, and Christina Jewett report:
While it is difficult to know the extent of her reach, multiple officials across the administration have been pushed out after ending up in Ms. Loomer’s sights. This year, she called for a purge of the National Security Council, targeted top officials at the National Security Agency and even went after a career federal prosecutor in Los Angeles.
Kevin Carroll, a former C.I.A. officer who is now a lawyer representing intelligence officials fired by the Trump administration, said Ms. Loomer’s unfettered influence was dangerous. 
“You have a person, from outside of the government of no national security experience and with extreme views, having de facto hire and fire authority over some of the most senior and important positions in the United States government,” Mr. Carroll said.  [emphasis added]
