WASHINGTON — Laura Loomer, a right-wing blogger and conspiracy theorist, posted messages on X targeting five prominent Black women in government with inflammatory racial and political slurs. The posts drew immediate condemnation from elected officials and civil rights leaders.

She continued her commentary on Monday with another post on X stating, "Angie Nixon is a ghetto, black, communist." Nixon recently won the Democratic primary race for the U.S. Senate in Florida. The posts identified the women by their current or former government roles and characterized them using derogatory language based on their race and gender.

U.S. House of Representatives Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries responded to the posts on September 1, 2026. Jeffries called Loomer a "stone-cold racist." Civil rights attorney Ben Crump offered his perspective on the incident on the same date. Crump stated, "Black women should NEVER have to endure such hateful and degrading rhetoric for daring to lead."

Loomer has nearly 2 million followers on X. She is an ally of U.S. President Donald Trump. Her principal campaign committee is LAURA LOOMER FOR CONGRESS INC, which is affiliated with the Republican Party. Loomer has previously advocated for deporting and removing "all Muslims from America" and has called for Muslims to be banned from holding office in the U.S. She has also claimed to be responsible for the firings of former national security adviser Mike Waltz and other aides.
