MAGA firebrand Laura Loomer escalated her fight with Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) after the lawmaker discussed a slain conservative activist in a podcast interview on Thursday.

MAGA influencer Laura Loomer responded to Omar's post, calling her a "terrorist sympathizer" and "the enemy from within."
"Ilhan Omar needs to be removed from Congress," Loomer posted on X. "How much more damage are we going to allow Muslims to cause our country before we say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH with these invaders coming into our country and terrorizing Americans with their caveman ideology?"
