Laura Loomer Defends Calling Angie Nixon a 'Ghetto Black Communist Bitch'

Marjorie Taylor Greene accused Loomer of "nonstop insanity."

Right-wing activist Laura Loomer defended her controversial comments about Democratic Senate candidate Angie Nixon, who referred to Loomer as a "ghetto Black communist b****" in a series of X posts. Loomer maintained that her characterization of Nixon was truthful and did not back down from her remarks despite backlash from figures like Marjorie Taylor Greene, who denounced Loomer's comments as racist.

Nixon countered by accusing her opponent of stealing $10 million from kids and urging supporters to replace her with Ashley Moody. Critics from both sides argued that Loomer's comments were damaging to Republican candidates and the party as a whole, highlighting the divisions within the MAGA movement ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.
