Kyiv Independent Interview: Laura Loomer on how she fell for Russian propaganda

The Kyiv Independent’s Jimmy Rushton speaks with MAGA influencer Laura Loomer during her visit to Kyiv about the dramatic shift in her stance on Ukraine after years of opposing U.S. military aid to the country, spreading Russian propaganda narratives, and cooperating with Russian state media outlets such as Russia Today (RT). Loomer shares her experience of visiting Ukraine and meeting with President Volodymyr Zelensky. She also explains why she believes she was misled by Russian propaganda, why she now supports sending Patriot air defense interceptors to Ukraine, her views on U.S. President Donald Trump’s approach to Russia and Vladimir Putin, and why she believes prominent voices on the American right have underestimated the threat posed by the Kremlin.

No you flipped the script because Ukraine is fucking russia into the ground. They're winning. It's why the orange fat pedo turnip is flipping as well. These maga grifter fucks need to be tossed in jail for treason.

Honestly, it if gets the current administration in the US to just not be hostile to Ukraine, fine.

That's not an endorsement of Loomer or an encouragement for anyone to excuse her previous shitbaggery, but if she can somehow get Trump off Putin's dick even a tiny bit, I'm happy to thank her for her service. The world is awful and some wins would be nice.

Edit:

Sigh. The Dipshit is already saying he didn't agree to Patriot licenses. This timeline is exhausting.

Absolutely, I'm seeing so much "oh, we got tricked! We're innocent victims too!" narrative coming out of all these fucksheads. Names of those actively spreading these lies and propaganda are recorded and jail is too good for them.

Every time I see a picture of her I think it's one of those attempts at humanoid robots, or a silicone sex doll or waxwork or something. She immediately triggers that uncanny valley "that's not human" response in the brain. I don't understand how anyone can find her attractive.

Nah, some ppl just overdo it. Could be a matter of taste, an environment that only compliments and never warns/disagrees or could be someone manipulating them to make them unattractive for most ppl. Some other ppl just don't know when to stop. We can give advice, but it's their body; their choice.

It's called "Mar-a-Lago face", a particular style of cosmetic surgery and Botox usage which has become prominent as a way to visually signify that you are part of the MAGA team.

Read how she met with Andrii Biletskyi and chatted with him for hours. She must have come to the conclusion that if White Chief became such a respectable figure here now, most Ukrainians must have views similar to her own.

Don't care. And UA's play to sane-wash this troglodyte thinking it will help them with Americans REALLY changes my opinion of them.
