Far-right MAGA activist Laura Loomer threatened to “expose” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) after the pro-Trump lawmaker called out her “racist” social media post attacking Vice President Kamala Harris’s Indian heritage.

The spat started on Wednesday, after Loomer posted to X that if Harris wins the White House would “smell like curry” and calls facilitated by “call center” – invoking cultural stereotypes. The posting came the same day she appeared alongside former President Donald Trump during 9/11 memorial events in New York.

Greene, who had previously voiced criticism of Loomer’s growing proximity to the Trump campaign’s inner circle, slammed the activist’s Wednesday post on X as “appalling and extremely racist.”

In response, Loomer unleashed a multi-post and lengthy rant on X, firstly defending her original attack on Harris and attacks on Greene’s family life and professional record, calling her a “raging anti-semite” and “trailer trash harpy.”

As her tirade against Greene continued, Loomer accused the Republican congresswoman of commonly using racist language herself.

“Speaking of racism, one of your former staffers told me you have a favorite word that starts with N,” she wrote.

Loomer also accused Greene of using campaign funds to organize meetings between rapper Kanye West and white supremacist Nick Fuentes as well as abandoning January 6th rioters to “rot” in prison and infidelity.

As Loomer’s rage peaked late Wednesday she then called on political operatives – “Republican or Democrat” – to contact her for “free” opposition research on the lawmaker.

Greene resisted hitting back at Loomer directly, but did post to clear up their history of having been friends since 2018. The lawmaker said that she had supported and defended Loomer on many occasions during that time.

In response to Loomer’s tirade and accusations, Greene wrote: “She breaks a few good stories here and there but there are many others she embellishes or flat out lies. However her attacks have no bearing on me, nor I am concerned with what she says. As a matter of fact, outside of a bubble on this platform, most regular people don’t know who she is.”

She added: “But when it comes to posts that are flat out racist, hateful, and make President Trump look bad, she needs to be responsible and delete them.”
