Laura Loomer appears to be behind the firings of the NSA and U.S. Cyber Command director and NSA deputy director.

The 31-year-old far-right conspiracy theorist has been unusually close to President Donald Trump ever since she was first spotted flying in Air Force One to attend a presidential debate in Sept. 2024 and even went to a 9/11 memorial ceremony with Trump .

The far right influencer has repeatedly spread egregiously false news items, though it's unclear if she knows they're wrong when she shares them.

Laura Loomer has sued HBO host Bill Maher for defamation after he suggested on his Sept. 13, 2024 , show that she might be in “an arranged relationship” with Trump .

Even some traditional Trump allies seem stunned by the move, with some saying they are stunned by Haugh 's firing.
