https://www.cnn.com/2026/07/25/politics/laura-loomer-ukraine-zelensky-trump

For years, Laura Loomer’s unflinching support for President Donald Trump was matched only by her fervent opposition to the US assisting Ukraine in its war against Russia.

The far-right figure has accused Ukrainian soldiers of committing war crimes and President Volodymyr Zelensky of faking his Jewish faith. She once encouraged Russian President Vladimir Putin to seize the entire country.

Yet, on Friday, Loomer released an exceedingly friendly 45-minute interview with Zelensky recorded in Kyiv where she praised the country’s drone tactics, acknowledged she spread falsehoods about the war and expressed regrets for amplifying narratives that benefited Russia.

“I was bamboozled by Russian propaganda,” she told Zelensky, “and I came to believe a lot of untrue things about Ukraine.”

The admission marked a stunning reversal by one of Trump’s most loyal allies — one the president appeared to immediately embrace. On Thursday, Trump shared a promotional clip of the interview on Truth Social and wrote: “Very good!!!”
>>
Two senior administration officials told CNN that the White House was unaware that Loomer had made the trip to war-torn Ukraine — a 30-hour journey that she said included a lengthy train ride from Poland to Kyiv because of airspace restrictions. Neither the White House nor the State Department responded to questions from CNN about her appearance there.

Her visit nevertheless presented a striking reminder of the unconventional currents that sometimes shape Trump’s foreign policy orbit. Images of her appearing alongside Zelensky emerged the same day Secretary of State Marco Rubio met with his Russian counterpart, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, in the Philippines. Loomer received a commitment from Zelensky to sign a peace deal with Russia at the White House or Trump’s Palm Beach estate; Rubio, meanwhile, acknowledged there’s been little movement toward an agreement.

Zelensky is set to meet Trump at the White House on Tuesday, a White House official told CNN. Zelensky said earlier this week that he’d spoken to Trump envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. “It was a good, important conversation on how to reinvigorate diplomacy and bring peace closer,” he posted on X.

Until recently, Loomer — who spends a significant amount of her time identifying and criticizing allegedly disloyal employees within the Trump administration — seemed unlikely ever to express sympathies for the Ukrainian people. In addition to using her massive digital platform to rally MAGA against the country in the war, she also previously wrote a series of op-eds for RT, the Kremlin-funded international television network.

A person in Kyiv with knowledge of how the Zelensky interview was arranged told CNN that there was a “considerable effort” in recent weeks to change Loomer’s worldview.
>>
Reached briefly by phone as she toured the wreckage from a Russian airstrike, Loomer said she had a positive experience speaking with Zelensky. In subsequent messages with CNN, she did not elaborate on how the trip was arranged.

In her conversation with Zelensky, Loomer distanced herself from past statements accusing him of supporting neo-Nazi militias and praised the country’s new law criminalizing antisemitism. During her visit, she also met a prominent Ukrainian rabbi, Moshe Reuven Azman.

Loomer’s conversion drew a range of reactions, including deep skepticism from liberals and anti-Trump Republicans on X, some of whom questioned whether her change in view was genuine or financial. Loomer told the news outlet Puck that she paid for her own plane ticket but declined to say how other arrangements were covered, like security and her train ticket.

“The government of Ukraine did not pay for me to go, if that’s what you’re asking,” she told Puck.

Tim Pool, another far-right commentator and outspoken Ukraine critic, appeared to mock Loomer on X by posting his own change-of-heart on the war that he later seemed to reveal was insincere.

However, Zelensky’s inner circle was pleased with the initial reaction to Loomer’s appearance, the Kyiv source said, and they are optimistic she can now be an influential voice of support for Ukraine given her credibility with the president and many of his supporters. During the interview, Zelensky praised Trump and was receptive to Loomer’s overtures on how to win over MAGA, though he declined to say who he thought was better between President Joe Biden and the current office holder.

“History will answer,” he said, before naming Abraham Lincoln as the country’s best leader.
>>
Loomer’s revisiting her longstanding opposition to Ukraine follows an escalating feud with Tucker Carlson over his opposition to Trump’s war with Iran. Like Loomer, Carlson has regularly shared Russian talking points while opposing US support for Ukraine’s defense.

But Loomer has grown increasingly suspicious of Carlson’s motivations, exposing a deep ideological fracture within the MAGA movement over foreign policy. Amid her travels to Ukraine, Loomer took aim at Carlson. At one point, she ate at a McDonalds still operating amid the rubble caused by airstrikes, a gesture intended to evoke Carlson’s controversial visit to Moscow two years ago, when he interviewed Putin, praised it as “nicer than any” US city and ate a Russian knock-off of the golden arches. McDonalds pulled out of the country in 2022 shortly after it launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

The emerging divisions within Trump’s base over the war comes amid intensifying air strikes between Ukraine and Russia. June marked the deadliest month for Ukraine civilians in more than four years, the United Nation’s recently reported, while drone attacks on Russian infrastructure and its warships have led to mounting casualties and presented new challenges for Putin.

Congress is weighing punishing Moscow with further sanctions in a bill designed to honor the late Sen. Lindsey Graham, a longtime supporter of Ukraine in its war against Russia. Trump has expressed a willingness to sign the bill if it also includes sanctions against Iran.

Asked about the sanctions legislation, Zelensky told Loomer that Trump “exactly understood who really doesn’t want to stop the war.”

“He understood that we really want peace,” Zelensky said.

>>
>>1525593
you're a TDS patient you aren't coherent when trump was president you claimed vaccines were human experimentation, then did a 180% the week after when Biden took over.
you have never been coherent your whole worldview is literally fuck trump and to stand in opposition to him at every single position.
the same cunts going you're a selfish asshole for not buying overpriced EVs went and set them on fire when Elon joined trump's campaign.

How will the rightist 1525591 be anying other than a lolcow esl shill?
How will the esl shill COPe with being called out and humiliated again?
And the migger 1525623 supports Trump, a Saudi Arabian ally giving nuclear technology to Muslims.

Saudi Arabia is a US ally.

its all performative. racism, transism, libism
they know instinctively they're inferior, they literally can't help it

>>1525638
A US ally that masterminded and funded 9/11

>it's all unironic: racism, homophobia, fear of those not exactly like them
Everyone else knows instinctively that rightards are inferior subhumans.
>>
>>1525651
The hilarious part is they unironically think most people agree with them and are blind to how extremely unpopular right wing policies have become post-Trump.
>>
Does she really look like that? What race is that?
>>
>>1525586
She's just a political entrepreneur who wants to advance her own position.
She doesn't care about Ukraine the same way she didn't care about Russia, beyond how it can help her domestically.
It's not too dissimilar to how Trump flip-flops between diametrically opposed positions as they seem convenient to him.
>>1525591
he's already been pro-ukraine a handful of times and "changed his mind"

>unpopular right wing policies have become post-Trump
You sure about that lil bro? Right wing policies and ideologies are stronger than ever and keep growing. What isn't popular is the wars and Israel shit. Democrats could sweep the entire country if they stopped being pussies and got crime and immigration under control, dropped the anti-white shit, and dropped gun bans.
>>
>>1525746
There hasn't been any gun control legislation put forward by democrats in a very long time.
If these are things you think of when you hear Democrat, I don't think you'll ever stop voting for the guy with an R next to his name

Yes. Go outside.

>>1525748
Nta, but all my coworkers tripled down on Trump and haven't blinked once in his second term, even on the Israel shit.
I can pretend to be a groyper and tried reminding them about Israel's ties to Epstein and was just met with

It's literally good that liggerals are turning Nazi these days.
It's proven to be a better class of socialism.
>>
>>1525751
The Soviets beat the Nazis.
>>
>>1525752
Then collapsed under corrupt rule.
>>
>>1525753
All of the Nazi leaders killed themselves before they could ever see justice.
Mussolini was beat to death in the streets of Italy.
>>
>>1525751
>>1525752
>>1525753
Conservatives were always the nazis since fascism is a far right ideology.
Also the Russian are currently nazis under putin, which is why Republicans, specifically trump can't stop being his cock holster.

Either way, fascism has zero loyality so you're seeing far right rats like Loomer jump ship because they know Russia is done, even after trump betrayed them to Putin.
>>
>>1525755
And modern liggerals are far right totalitarian socialists.
But honestly, who in the fuck was the idiot that even said Communism and socialism were left wing?
Fucking ridiculous. Communism and socialism act more like slavery in practice.
Whereas capitalism is way more free.
>>
>>1525757
I love how desperate you are to deflect from what I originally said about Trump and his voters not flinching, and have gone on off on this tangent where you clearly just want to run at strawmen all day for Dear Leader.
>>
>>1525759
Was there a point to your post? Why would Trump voters flinch just because you're a bitchy little gayboy?
You think they understand what's going on in your fucked up fag-brain? Nope.
>>
>>1525760
>Why would Trump voters, or anyone, care that Israel facilitated Epstein and his crimes?
I guess it's my fault for giving you enough credit to rub 2 brain cells together long enough to connect some dots
>>
>>1525761
So no point? I personally agree that Israel is terrible. I'll even go farther and say Judaism is the most evil religious cult on the planet and all the Jews should be exiled there.
The problem is that Iran isn't a war for Israel. It's a war against Iran attempting to extort reduced sanctions.
The other problem is that the media is willingly dropping the ball on reporting the core issue behind the war.
Sanctions exist because Iran was enriching Uranium and has a history of being hostile.
So when JCPOA was cancelled (due to their proxy wars and hostilities( they decided to be hostile and enrich more Uranium and attack ships.
The war does benefit Israel, but it also benefits other allies in the region, and hurts China and Russia.

>>1525757
>N-n-no U
This is the state of modern fascism, they can't even take responsibility for their own actions and just blame everyone else

>>1525763
What actions?

Because Russia is weak.

Nothing he said is made up you retard that's exactly how you idiots behave. You stand against everything that Trump does even if it something you would normally support. Fucking people like you are pathetic and should not be allowed to vote.
>>
>>1525651
You can't even adress the point you fucking NPC

>>1525766
And he fucking said nothing ofc typical redditor fucking retard

T-t-triple shill

Because they're a hell of a lot more stubborn than the average zigger.

1525888
>You can't even adress the point you fucking NPC
>adress
>inb4 "grammar nazi", "context" etc
When the projecting subhuman NPC that is 1525888 can't address the point that it can't spell "address", not only does the fucking NPC esl shill never have an argument, least of all a "point", it doesn't have the right to say others 'don't have a point'.
But the point still stands which 1525888 can't counter, thus reduced to its retarded method of replying, and the NPC cannot spell that without the word Lying (or spell, for that matter: "adress"):
>it's all unironic: racism, homophobia, fear of those not exactly like them
Everyone else knows instinctively that rightards are inferior subhumans. That is the point to address.
>you fucking NPC
>adress
Nice self-own, subhuman NPC reduced to projection.
>>
>>1525586
Damn lucky kid! Did he hit tho?
>>
Crazy how political propaganda from both sides has even divided us 4chan can not fall to these mistakes weshould find the truth for all to see.. undeniable proof
>>
>>1525887
People are naturally skeptical of a 180 like this after republicans spent the last 3 years being Kremlin puppets.
Anytime someone points out this glaring hypocrisy, republicans always try to change the subject with some “what about Biden” bullshit.
I know if you respond you’re gonna try to deflect again rather than address this wildly inconsistent behavior. Why would anyone trust someone who’s been spewing Russian talking points for years?
>>
1526019
Crazy propaganda from one side as Putin glazers try to divide 4chan. It's undeiable proof that Putin and his glazers are inferior subhumans.
>undeniable proof
>weshould
>inb4 "grammar nazi", "context" etc
Everyone else should humiliate the esl shill for its inferior education.
>we
Hi, subhuman esl shill.
>>
>>1526029
It always happens because you call Trump a Kremlin puppet, we point out how Biden made many of the same moves, and you cannot argue that both Trump and Biden are Russian assets, so you instead say Trump is the Russian asset and anyone who points out Biden did the same thing must be a Russian operative trying to deflect criticism from a Russian asset. It's Russians all the way down
>>
>>1526064
Biden has never bowed down to Putin like Trump so often does and Democrats weren’t pushing a narrative about Russia being the good guys for over 4 years just to act like it never happened. Trump and Vance berated Zalensky on national television for hours.
It’s unbelievable to me that Republicans do this and then go back to
>Well both sides are the same
