EP20: Loomer Brings the Heat To Iowa: GOP Establishment MELTS DOWN as Trump Dominates Caucus EventsEP20: Loomer Brings the Heat To Iowa: GOP Establishment MELTS DOWN as Trump Dominates Caucus Events
Join me and my friend and fellow conservative commentator, Joey Manorino, as we discuss all things Iowa and the upcoming presidential primary election. Today's episode is a live show from Des Moines, Iowa, where we will be covering everything you've always wanted to know about the candidates who are now descending upon Iowa and everything you need to know so that you can be prepared to vote on Monday, January 15th.
00:11:40.000I got the flu thanks to that, but it's okay.
00:11:44.000Yes, so Joey and I have both been in Iowa for the last week, and I'm going to be here for the rest of the week until the 16th, and so stay tuned.
00:11:53.000Be sure that you are liking and reposting this live episode.
00:11:58.000We are currently live from Des Moines, Iowa, and this episode is all about Iowa and the Iowa caucus.
00:12:08.000Six days away from the Iowa Caucus, which is taking place on Monday, January 15th.
00:12:14.000And so you're going to want to be sure that you tune into this episode and share it all over your pages because we're going to, for the next two and a half hours or so, run through everything that you've always wanted to know about all the GOP candidates who are now descending upon Iowa and everything that you need to know so that you're prepared to vote on Monday, January 15th.
00:12:38.000And there are really only two America First candidates and everybody else is a disaster, but one true America First candidate has been there forever.
00:15:07.000We're going to show some of these clips tonight.
00:15:09.000If you aren't aware of where President Trump or any of these candidates are having their events, for President Trump's events, you can go to his website, of course, to learn about the Iowa caucus.
00:15:22.000IA.DonaldJTrump.com and of course that's where you can learn all about how you can caucus for President Trump if you live in Iowa.
00:15:30.000I know I have a lot of people who watch me.
00:15:33.000We are not Casey and Ron DeSantis and so we're not going to be telling people to come to Iowa to caucus unless you live here in Iowa.
00:15:41.000But if you are watching and you do live in Iowa, please be sure that you check out President Trump's website because you're going to need to know how to caucus and how you can bring your friends as well.
00:16:25.000And he's able to actually answer them, which is good, because I think if you're gonna run for president, you should have to answer questions from the public.
00:16:33.000And tell people about that, because you actually drove on his tour bus with him.
00:17:55.000Yeah, but I would say that the two most personable candidates in this race, obviously Donald Trump, and I was able to spend some time backstage with President Trump at the events as well.
00:18:05.000I got to speak to President Trump, and so it was a unique experience.
00:18:09.000I was given backstage access to some of President Trump's events in Iowa these last few days, and I was able to speak to President Trump and also talk to some of his campaign staff.
00:18:20.000You know, because I'm here interviewing people, and just like, you know, people always say, oh, she works for Trump.
00:18:27.000I've, you know, been asked as well, I'm going to have a sit-down interview, as many of you who are viewers of Loomer Unleashed saw.
00:18:33.000We interviewed Vivek Ramaswamy on my show a few days ago, and there were some technical difficulties because he was on his bus with bad Wi-Fi, and so he's invited me to do a sit-down interview with him in Iowa, which I intend to do.
00:18:45.000And the only two candidates that have been extremely hostile toward me
00:19:26.000You were not easy on him when you interviewed him on Luma Unleashed.
00:19:29.000I wasn't, and you were on the bus, and you even told me yourself that Vivek was talking
00:19:34.000Yeah, he saw the video of you and Nikki.
00:19:36.000Yeah, so why don't you tell people what happened because we're actually, let's play the clip for people who don't, who haven't seen the clip.
00:19:42.000I know that some of you may not have seen this clip.
00:19:45.000Well, it's been seen about 14 million times on Twitter.
00:19:49.000What ended up happening is I showed up to Nikki Haley's event the other day early in the morning and before she even took the stage, she actually had me escorted out of her event
00:19:59.000By police who threatened to arrest me even though I hadn't done anything.
00:20:03.000I was just standing there getting ready to ask her a question.
00:20:24.000I apologize as well for the 20 minute delay to the live stream.
00:20:29.000We had some technical difficulties because as you know I broadcast my show out of Florida and so we had to connect the live feed just so you can hear all the boring technical information.
00:20:40.000We had to connect the live feed from Des Moines, Iowa in the middle of a snowstorm.
00:20:46.000To Florida, where there's currently a tornado warning outside of the studio where we broadcast.
00:20:54.000And so we have storms here in Des Moines with a foot of snow.
00:21:22.000Well, didn't he fly to Florida today for the first time in a while, though, to give his little state of the state?
00:21:26.000Yeah, he flew for a couple hours to give his state of the state, and the state of the state is bad, given the fact that there's storms that are ravaging the entire state.
00:21:35.000So, we'll get back to talking about Ron DeSanctimonious, but I want to play people this clip, so let's go ahead, production team, go ahead and play.
00:21:43.000Clip number one, Loomer kicked out of Nikki Haley event.
00:21:47.000What's the problem that we're here for an event?
00:23:20.000So as you can see, Nikki Haley, before I could even ask a question, and honestly, before she even took the stage of her own event, had the cops escort me out.
00:23:31.000The individual who you saw on camera, who was not the police officer, who was awkwardly standing there, is her political coordinator for her national presidential campaign.
00:23:42.000His name is Miles Nuzzi, and he's actually a Democrat.
00:23:46.000If you look at his social media posts, he's like literally condemning Donald Trump after the second impeachment in January 6th.
00:23:55.000Supporting people like Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, saying that the future of the Republican Party is Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.
00:24:03.000And so you're not really a Republican if you're supporting Liz Cheney.
00:24:06.000Liz Cheney lost the primary in the most historic landslide loss for an incumbent ever.
00:24:17.000Absolutely, and so it was really weird to see Nikki Haley just get so aggressive, right?
00:24:22.000She likes to talk about how Donald Trump's a dictator, and how he likes to frolic with dictators, and how he's not tough on dictators, and how, oh, I'm a woman, and my ammunition is my heels, and I'm gonna put these dictators like Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping in their place by wearing my heels.
00:24:39.000And yet, how are you gonna face down dictators if you're scared of Laura Loomer?
00:24:45.000I mean, the woman is weak, she's scared, and nobody from South Carolina that I've ever talked to has ever had a good thing to say about her.
00:24:53.000They say that she sleeps with everybody that she can to get ahead.
00:25:48.000And this guy, okay, he has known associations with Jeffrey Epstein.
00:25:54.000He was currently, recently listed in the new batch of names that were released in the unsealed Jeffrey Epstein documents.
00:26:01.000And even before these documents were released, it was known that Reid Hoffman had attended events on the island, Epstein Island, with Jeffrey Epstein after he was convicted of being a pedophile.
00:26:14.000So forget about plausible deniability, like, oh, you know, he was such a nice guy, just I had no idea that he was raping little girls.
00:26:21.000No, after he was convicted of pedophilia, okay, Epstein that is, Reid Hoffman went to the island.
00:26:27.000And this is who Nikki Haley's PAC took a quarter of a million dollars from.
00:26:30.000In fact, you know, we actually sent a Loomer Unleashed contributor, Charles Downs, we sent a couple Loomer Unleashed contributors today to Nikki Haley's event in
00:26:41.000There's so many interesting little names in Iowa about Waukee.
00:26:49.000Waukee, Iowa is where Nikki Haley had her event this morning.
00:26:53.000It was her only event of the day because she's been canceling events ever since I arrived.
00:27:00.000Nikki Haley doesn't really want to have so many events anymore.
00:27:03.000And she's been blaming it on the snow, of course, right?
00:27:06.000She was taking town hall questions before I arrived in Iowa, and ever since I arrived and announced my Loomer Unleashed contest, where I'm giving out cash prizes to people that want to ask questions on video to Nikki Haley and DeSantis, she has officially stopped answering questions.
00:27:23.000Let's play clip number four, uh, because immediately, and this means that, uh, Nikki Haley's staff must be spying on us, because the other night I ended up staying at the same hotel in Des Moines as, um, as Nikki Haley's staff.
00:27:38.000And, for some reason, they were able to recognize one of my contributors, and I wasn't even there today!
00:35:06.000So she was going to ask a question to Vivek, and then Vivek had Apoorva on the bus, and he said, well, why don't you ask her a question instead?
00:38:03.000And also, today as well, along with throwing my contributor out into the snow, we have this on my ex-account and perhaps production can pull it up.
00:38:13.000I've identified the individual who was in that video throwing my staffer out into the snowstorm as Andrew Patterson.
00:38:21.000He's the Director of Events and Operations for Nikki Haley.
00:38:24.000And so, he's the one that said to my 18-year-old staffer and contributor,
00:38:30.000Yeah, I don't care if it's snowing outside, you know, go outside into the cold.
00:38:35.000Additionally, another Loomer Unleashed contributor, Charles Downs, was able to get inside the Nikki Haley event and was not thrown out.
00:38:43.000And we're going to go ahead and play that clip because today Charles confronted Nikki Haley to her face about whether or not she planned on returning the quarter of a
00:38:52.000million dollar donation that she received from Reid Hoffman.
00:38:56.000Reid Hoffman of course is the Democrat mega donor and also the co-founder of LinkedIn who gave Nikki Haley a quarter of a million dollars and so let's go ahead and let's go ahead and play the clip of our contributor Charles getting thrown out of Nikki Haley's event.
00:39:26.000Governor, will you call on your Stand for America PAC to return Reid Hoffman's donation to letter to Epstein documents?
00:39:34.000Well, you guys don't want me asking your boss about Jeffrey Epstein?
00:40:08.000Let's go ahead and play that one more time, because I just think that it's just so cowardly.
00:40:14.000See Nikki Haley walking off the stage, because as I said before I came to town and announced my contest, Nikki Haley was always taking questions at her town halls, but now she just immediately walks off stage.
00:40:25.000And of course, that's when Charles followed her.
00:40:45.000And then a Nikki Haley staffer, you could call that assault, okay?
00:40:48.000I would say that, you know, it's not like punching someone in the face, but it's physically hitting them with something.
00:40:55.000Hitting their physical person with another object is the definition of assault.
00:40:59.000And so you can see her staffer, you know, shoving the Nikki Haley sign in Charles' face, and then Charles told me as well when the camera was off, they proceeded to hit him in the head with the Nikki Haley sign.
00:41:38.000Regardless of whether he was hurt, he should still sue them because it's assault.
00:41:41.000Charles, you should have fell down and said, my neck hurts, my neck hurts, and then you can get all that Democrat money in your bank account.
00:41:48.000You could have fell down, rolling on the floor.
00:42:05.000But yes, they did hit you in the head, right Charles?
00:42:08.000Multiple times they hit him in the head.
00:42:10.000So let's go ahead and play that clip one more time because everybody needs to see how she immediately exits the stage from her event and then, you know, just dodges Charles's question.
00:42:21.000I mean, immediately after he asked the question, they cover his face with the sign and then she bolted out the back entrance and left.
00:45:44.000Like, what's the point of having a town hall if you're not going to answer questions?
00:45:47.000Oh, and it's also important to note that Reid Hoffman, the donor who gave Nikki Haley a quarter of a million dollars, who's a Jeffrey Epstein associate,
00:45:55.000He's the same donor who's currently funding the E. Jean Carroll case against President Trump in which she falsely accused President Trump of raping her.
00:46:08.000And why would a man who is worth that much money need to be so desperate to find a woman he has to go rape her in the middle of Bergdorf Goodman, which is a department store in the middle of Fifth Avenue in New York?
00:46:21.000There is no... What does that even look like?
00:48:50.000President Trump is killing it, though.
00:48:51.000You know, we are now six days away, six days away from the Iowa caucus, and the energy is undeniably in President Trump's favor.
00:48:59.000I saw a really interesting clip today from Bill O'Reilly on NewsNation, and he was asked, just kind of point-blank, to give his honest assessment of the Iowa caucus.
00:49:10.000And so, he pretty much just said Donald Trump is going to win, and everybody knows it, and Ron DeSantis is going to drop out.
00:49:18.000Let's go ahead and play that clip because I think that, one, it's really funny just seeing how blunt Bill O'Reilly is.
00:49:27.000So go ahead and play clip number eight.
00:50:22.000At that point, there is no legitimate case for Nikki Haley or Ron DeSantis to continue on, because he is done and defined.
00:50:30.000If he goes under 50, they will spin it and say, oh yeah, we're going to stay in and continue, and they'll keep having their little donors infuse them with money.
00:50:39.000It will all come to an end once the donors realize they can't beat Trump.
00:50:43.000They still are under the delusion they can.
00:50:45.000So we'll see how long that lasts, but I don't think Ron makes it.
00:50:50.000He'll probably stay in for New Hampshire just for his pride, but he's behind Vivek in the polls.
00:50:54.000He's literally in fifth place in the new poll.
00:50:57.000It's Trump, and then it's Haley, and then it's Lizzo, the white Lizzo.
00:51:06.000Chris Christie's fat ass blocked me on Twitter because I come for him very hard.
00:51:11.000He said that I was one of the worst people ever when I confronted him.
00:51:15.000I don't know if we still have that clip or not.
00:51:16.000I know that President Trump shared it, but do we still have that clip?
00:51:20.000Maybe production can pull it up of when I chased Chris Christie in Florida and I told him that he should be running on a treadmill instead of running for president.
00:52:32.000So I show up to his event in, I believe it was Grimes, Iowa, and Chip Roy and Thomas Massey are there with him, and then they do the same thing, where they lie and they say, oh, the owner wants you to leave, you need to leave, the owner said, you know, they're going to have the police trespass you, and it was this whole altercation.
00:52:53.000And ultimately I was removed from Ron DeSantis's event even though I was just standing there doing nothing quietly by myself and then I was threatened with arrest.
00:53:04.000I was threatened with arrest from an officer from the
00:53:09.000From the police from the police department in Ankeny, I believe it was and you'll have to see the clip for yourself, but Then I ended up getting a tip from a friend of the restaurant owner who said this isn't exactly how it went down so Before I get to that part of the story which I broke today on my ex accounts for those of you who are just tuning in and you haven't been following me and my escapades on on Twitter here and
00:53:37.000It's about a four minute long clip and you have to watch it from start to finish to really see what happened.
00:53:43.000But it goes to show you that Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley both called the cops on me and had me removed by police from their events on January 6th, the three year anniversary of January 6th, because they support weaponized government.
00:53:55.000So let's go ahead and play the clip of Ron DeSantis calling the cops on me on January 6th at his campaign event.
00:59:02.000We met when I was in Minnesota doing activism a couple years ago, exposing Ilhan Omar.
00:59:07.000I had dinner with her and her family the other night, and her parents are lovely people, and her father happens to be a man by the name of Bud Hockenberg.
00:59:16.000And he's very well known here in Iowa, very influential politically speaking.
00:59:21.000He's actually the chairman of Chuck Grassley's committee, you know?
00:59:24.000And so the candidates... So they kicked her.
00:59:28.000They kicked the daughter of the chairman of the Grassley committee.
01:00:03.000But also, what does he think Chuck Grassley is going to think about this when it gets back to Chuck Grassley that Ron DeSantis called the cops on the daughter of the chairman of his committee?
01:00:11.000I don't think he's going to be so happy.
01:00:13.000And you know, he did the full Grassley and he still can't really get anywhere in the polls.
01:00:18.000I don't understand why he thinks that's a good thing to brag about.
01:00:22.000He's put everything into Iowa, and he's only at, like, 15% in the polls.
01:03:25.000And President Trump would be spending more time in Iowa.
01:03:27.000President Trump has done a lot of events in Iowa.
01:03:29.000But I will say that it just goes to show you, President Trump had to go to court today in Washington, D.C.
01:03:35.000So when people say, oh, Trump's never in Iowa, I personally have been to multiple events, backstage access, just, you know, for this week alone with President Trump.
01:03:44.000Uh, and I've, you know, reported on these events, but I'm pretty sure President Trump would prefer to be in Iowa right now, but he had to spend time at a federal appeals court today regarding presidential immunity for the witch hunts against him, and of course they did this right before the caucus so that they could create these narratives.
01:04:01.000But President Trump is going to be in Iowa again this week.
01:04:03.000He's doing multiple rallies this weekend.
01:04:05.000Of course, I'm going to be covering those rallies with the Loomer Unleashed team.
01:04:10.000You can go to IA, that's for Iowa, IA.DonaldJTrump.com, and that's where you can learn to caucus, how to caucus for Trump if you live in Iowa.
01:04:19.000Get all the information about his events.
01:04:29.000And right now, before we continue with the rest of the show, I want to take a moment to thank the sponsor of today's episode, episode 20 of Loomer Unleashed, and that, of course, is Gold Co.
01:04:41.000You know, we're living in really uncertain financial times, and that's why we really need President Trump back in office, because as you've probably noticed, a lot of people are predicting we're going to have a market crash.
01:05:11.000The dollar really isn't going to have much value if President Trump doesn't get back into office and if Joe Biden is able to continue to carry out this illegitimate communist regime and drive our economy into the ground.
01:05:23.000So that's why it's really important that you back up your personal wealth with precious metals like gold and silver.
01:05:31.000And so I'm really happy to have partnered with one of the most trusted
01:05:54.000if you're interested in backing up your wealth with precious metals like gold and silver.
01:05:58.000We are living, like I said, in very uncertain times and so it's really important that you protect your wealth as well as the wealth and the future financial livelihood of your family because who knows what's going to happen, you know?
01:06:11.000We're on the brink of World War III right now and
01:06:15.000We don't even know if we're gonna make it.
01:06:57.000They don't want the government to take control of your money.
01:06:59.000They want you to take control of your own finances and your own wealth and they also put their money where their mouth is because they don't just sponsor me, they sponsor a lot of different conservatives.
01:07:52.000So, you saw DeSanctimonious almost get you arrested.
01:07:57.000You saw Nikki Haley almost get you arrested.
01:08:00.000If you had one thing that you could say to Ron DeSantis when you did not get to ask him, what was it going to be?
01:08:08.000Well, I was gonna ask him a lot of things, but what I really wanted to ask him on the three-year anniversary of January 6th was, uh, hey, Ron, you know, uh, why did you recently say that, uh, the January Sixers were not patriots?
01:08:20.000Why are you allowing for Capitol Police to set up shop
01:08:24.000Yeah, Florida has the highest number of J6 defendants out of any state.
01:08:37.000I mean, he was a strong governor on some things with COVID, but that's kind of where it stopped.
01:08:42.000The rents in Florida, we're both Florida residents, the rents in Florida under his leadership have gone astronomically through the roof.
01:08:49.000I know, you and I were just like comparing prices the other day and we were like, oh my god.
01:08:52.000We live like, I don't know about you, but I live in a horrible condition basically at this point and I'm paying more than I've ever paid for rent ever.
01:09:14.000Because, I mean, he's really losing support in Florida right now.
01:09:18.000He is, and you know, he gave his State of the State address today, and like I said, right now, as we're currently speaking, you know, storms are ravaging through the state of Florida.
01:11:52.000Definitely got to keep an eye on the dog.
01:11:54.000So, uh, you know, I, I played the clip earlier for you guys, um, getting kicked out of the Ron DeSantis event.
01:12:00.000And then I told you my friend Marnie, of course, is the daughter of the chairman of the Grassley committee.
01:12:05.000And I wanted to play the interview with my friend Marnie as well, because I interviewed her and you can hear firsthand from her what it was like as an Iowa resident, uh, getting thrown out of this Ron DeSantis event with me where they called the cops on her.
01:12:19.000And it just goes to show you once again just how out of touch Ron DeSantis is throwing the daughter of the chairman of the Grassley Committee in Iowa right a week before the Iowa caucus out of his events and calling the cops on her.
01:12:31.000So let's go ahead and cut to clip number three of my interview with Marnie Hockenberg.
01:12:42.000This is Laura Loomer, and this is my friend Marnie Hockenberg.
01:12:45.000And as many of you saw yesterday, Marnie and I went to Ron DeSantis' event.
01:12:50.000We both had tickets to attend his event in Iowa, just outside of Des Moines.
01:12:57.000It was being hosted at a sports bar called Who's On First.
01:13:00.000And upon entering the building, even though we called ahead and they told us that the upstairs area was open to the public, I was surrounded by a police officer and Jared Small, who is the director of advance for Rhonda Sanchez's campaign.
01:13:14.000And they said that the owner had directed the police to trespass us and remove us or else we were going to be arrested.
01:13:26.000Stay tuned because there's some foggy details around those claims by Ron DeSantis.
01:13:32.000But what is really interesting is Marnie here happens to be the daughter of a very influential Iowa Republican leader, and his name is Bud Hockenberg.
01:13:44.000And so Ron DeSantis may not know this, but the woman in Iowa
01:13:48.000Who was attending this event with me, who he called the cops on and threatened with arrest, happens to be the daughter of Bud Hockenberg, who is a member of the Grassley Committee.
01:14:00.000Yes, that's Senator Chuck Grassley here in Iowa.
01:14:04.000And the Grassley Committee, of course, got its name because they call it
01:14:10.000The full Grassley when a candidate goes to all 99 of Iowa's counties.
01:14:15.000And so, Marnie, it's really interesting, right?
01:14:21.000And I wonder if Ron DeSantis is going to be kicking himself in the head after he hears who he kicked out and called the cops on at his event.
01:15:06.000So how did it make you feel getting kicked out of Rhonda Sanchez's event with me and being told by the police in the parking lot that we were going to be arrested and taken to jail if we went back inside?
01:15:17.000It was obvious as an example of Ron DeSantis weaponizing the government against us.
01:15:24.000And it turns out that the owner of the establishment, who's on first, did not tell the cops to try to trespass us and remove us from the venue.
01:15:38.000And he threatened to arrest us and take us to jail.
01:15:42.000So it looks like Ron DeSantis' campaign lied to the police and told them something that wasn't true, and it's really interesting because, you know, you hear on the video them saying, oh, you know, we have permission to remove you from the owner, and now we're finding out that the details surrounding that really aren't exactly as Ron DeSantis and his campaign portrayed it.
01:16:03.000So more deception from Deceptive Ron, but it's also just really incredible how he's in Iowa trying to win
01:16:11.000He's the co-chairperson of the Grassley Committee.
01:16:35.000And Ron DeSantis called the police on his daughter, you, and me, because we're friends.
01:16:41.000We've been friends for many years now, and we go way back from our time in Minnesota together.
01:16:46.000And so I just want Rhonda Sanchez's people to know that you didn't just kick a journalist out of your event and call the cops on me, but my friend Marnie is a very established conservative and also a conservative activist, a Jewish woman, and her father just happens to be a very influential Republican leader in the state of Iowa, a member of the Grassley Committee.
01:18:09.000I just released a statement on X a couple moments ago saying that, quote, it is with deep sadness that I announce the passing of my beloved mother Amalia.
01:18:20.000Amalia Knobbs was a strong woman who always carried herself with grace, warmth, and dignity.
01:18:25.000She was entirely devoted to her husband, daughters, grandson, and son-in-law.
01:18:29.000We will miss her beyond measure and continue to honor and love her legacy.
01:18:34.000As we know, as you know, the media has been really nasty with their whole, where's Melania comments?
01:18:39.000Well, Melania has been a very devoted wife to her husband, who was harassed, of course, nonstop by the Deep State.
01:18:47.000But also, she is not seen in public appearances because she's been taking care of her mother, who was unfortunately, I believe, diagnosed with cancer.
01:18:57.000And, uh, her mother just passed away today from cancer, and so, uh, you know, on New Year's... I hope the media can now apologize for that disgusting stuff they said.
01:19:06.000There was the picture, the family picture, and they said, looks like Melania's left Trump.
01:21:13.000Yeah, and the photos are beautiful as well, and so I was looking at the ex account earlier, and just really nice tributes are pouring in.
01:21:21.000It's just been an awful year, really, for the Trump family.
01:21:24.000You had the passing of Ivana, who was, of course, President Trump's first wife, and they remained very good friends even after the divorce, and the mother of his children, Eric, Ivanka, and Don.
01:21:35.000And that was a very tragic death, you know?
01:21:37.000They found her at the bottom of the stairs of her place in New York City.
01:21:41.000And now, of course, the passing of Melania's mother.
01:22:25.000The man is nearly 80 years old, and he could have done anything in his elder years.
01:22:30.000Most people, with his money, would have left that presidency, and with everything they put him through, got on the jet, and he would be on some island somewhere, with his feet up, his whole family with him, and never think about our problems again.
01:22:43.000But he actually loves the country and is staying in the fight.
01:22:47.000And that's something that I don't think we will ever quite find again.
01:23:47.000And to have to deal with that much harassment and knowing that the media is constantly accusing you of being a neglectful wife when really you're just by your ailing mother's bedside.
01:28:44.000And we have the clip from the town hall today, and the Fox News interview that shows that this is who Ron DeSantis and Chip Roy are aligning themselves with.
01:28:53.000So let's go ahead and play clip number seven of Josh Sorba at the Ron DeSantis event, and then Chip Roy praising him, and then we're gonna show you the tweet so that you can see firsthand how he literally threatened me and Alex Brucewitz with a razor.
01:29:10.000What brings you out today to this event?
01:29:12.000The opportunity to meet DeSantis, Chip Roy and Thomas Massey.
01:29:16.000We've been blanketing the state meeting with people.
01:32:50.000And all the DeSantis influencers followed this crazy guy on Twitter.
01:32:54.000Well, if by some chance they didn't know, now they do, so now if they don't condemn it, I guess... And they're giving him, this was back in July, and now we know that Ron DeSantis gave him tickets to his town hall, and Chip Roy admitted that he met with him as well as Ron DeSantis.
01:34:09.000I don't understand how they even would think to say that she wants to give visas to people.
01:34:13.000She wants more migration into the country.
01:34:15.000And she's also the only GOP presidential candidate that is not in favor of
01:34:23.000In fact, let's go ahead and play clip number 10.
01:34:26.000That's President Trump's PAC actually just released a new ad about Nikki Haley and her open borders immigration policy because she doesn't think that the illegals who are breaking our laws by coming across our country, invading our country, are criminals.
01:35:31.000The definition of illegal immigration implies that a crime has been committed.
01:35:37.000But perhaps she doesn't really want to come to terms with this because Nikki Haley herself is not even a natural-born citizen because her parents, who are immigrants, okay, from India, a lot of people don't know this, abused our immigration system and she's a birthright citizen.
01:36:10.000I wrote an article about this that was then expanded upon and picked up by my friend Paul Ingrassia who published it in Gateway Pundit and American Spectator and today President Trump actually shared that on True Social.
01:36:23.000So President Trump even shared my article and Paul Ingrassia's article in which I exposed that Nikki Haley is not qualified to be president because she doesn't have natural born citizenship.
01:36:34.000And that's why she's so sympathetic to all these illegals.
01:36:37.000I don't understand her and these illegals.
01:36:38.000I mean, even if you're going to run as a Republican, even if you're not going to be actually strong in an office, you would think she'd have the brains to at least act like she cared about illegal immigration.
01:37:00.000The human traffickers that are basically bending over five-year-old girls and running gangbangs and 10 men ejaculating a five-year-old girl.
01:37:11.000I don't mean to give you the graphic description, but they literally are finding three-year-old boys and five-year-old girls that have 10 samples of semen in them.
01:37:23.000So you have, just imagine if you want to even picture that image in your mind, a five-year-old
01:37:28.000Uh, getting ejaculated in by ten men who are raping them.
01:38:53.000Well, I'm just saying, if these people aren't criminals and they just want a better life, maybe Nikki Haley won't mind introducing a bunch of these gangbangers to her daughter.
01:39:02.000Well, if you support illegal immigration, I always say... No, but seriously, if these people are not criminals, then why doesn't Nikki Haley invite these human traffickers that are raping five-year-old girls?
01:39:12.000If they're not criminals, why don't they let them spend the night with her own daughter?
01:39:15.000Well, if you support illegal immigration, you should bear the brunt of their pain.
01:40:59.000I know that it's in President Trump's ad where he's, you know, talking about her immigration stance.
01:41:04.000But let's go to the chat really quick, because I know that, you know, we have some people in the chat that may have some questions for you or people that want to talk about everything.
01:41:20.000I was also on Steve Bannon's show today, too, so be sure that you check that out if you missed it.
01:41:26.000Earlier this evening, you guys, I did an interview, an update from Iowa, you know, just really talking about a lot of what I'm talking about with you as well, but I posted that on my ex as well.
01:41:36.000The clip is also on the Bannon War Room Rumble, so be sure, if you missed my interview, you check that out.
01:41:42.000Let's go to the channel and see what everybody's saying.
01:41:48.000Also, we are live right now, you guys, so please, uh, please do me a favor and post this, uh, retweet it, uh, post it on your Facebook, post it wherever, share it, like it, okay?
01:41:58.000Leave a comment, uh, on the live Rumble feed, and be sure that you download the Rumble app.
01:42:03.000It's free, and you follow me on Rumble as well, so you never miss an episode.
01:42:07.000Also, uh, at the bottom of my Rumble page, you're gonna see a little button that says, Get Loomer'd.
01:42:19.000It's free to subscribe, but I am an independent journalist.
01:42:21.000And so if you would like to support my investigative journalism, you can click to become a subscriber of my Locals and pay $7 a month or $70 per year.
01:42:31.000Or you can also give a one-time donation.
01:42:37.000It costs a lot of money to bring everybody out here to Iowa to do the show.
01:42:41.000And we're hoping to go out to other states as well.
01:42:44.000I want to thank everybody because we reached our goal of 6,500.
01:42:49.000But if you would like to, the GiveSendGo link is in my bio on my ex account, and you can still contribute if you want, and any additional funds that are left over after we cover the cost of this trip will then be, you know, put into our trip funds so that we can also go potentially to places like New Hampshire, maybe I'll go out to Colorado, maybe I'll go out to Maine, you never know!
01:43:11.000You have a lot of these crazy Secretaries of State who are trying to remove Trump from the ballot, and they need to get loomered!
01:43:18.000And so if you want to cover the production costs for that, you can go to the GiveSendGo.
01:43:24.000I'll give you that link as well right now.
01:43:26.000Let me pull that up and I know that the production can pull that up full screen as well.
01:43:31.000Jenna Griswold would not be able to handle you.
01:43:33.000She'd be right on your... But it's givesendgo.com slash Loomer in Iowa.
01:43:43.000But I want to thank everybody for at least helping us.
01:43:46.000We did reach the cost of the Iowa trip.
01:43:49.000But if you do want to make more contributions on that GiveSendGo, it's going to roll over because every single time that we're going to be doing a trip, we're going to create a new GiveSendGo page just for the sake of transparency so that you guys see we're not going on vacation with your money.
01:44:06.000You know, we are doing this on a budget, and I'm telling you right now that I'm dominating Iowa caucus coverage.
01:44:12.000I don't know of a single other reporter out here who has gotten as much coverage as I have.
01:44:16.000My Nikki Haley video got over 15 million views, and I did that on a cell phone, okay?
01:44:21.000And so now we have the team out here, and just in earned media alone, okay, we have probably generated, in terms of earned media, which is what they call, you know,
01:44:38.000We've probably generated millions of dollars of earned media, right?
01:44:43.000That's not earned media that we benefit from.
01:44:46.000I'm saying, like, earned media, when you look at the fact that candidates are paying millions of dollars for ads right now on television, the stuff that we're doing is getting more views, and they're spending millions of dollars on it, and we've been able to do this trip under a budget of $8,000.
01:45:51.000We do everything on a budget and it's only possible because of all of you.
01:45:54.000And I'm really blessed and I'm so grateful that I have such amazing supporters like all of you who were generous enough to come together and through your contributions of, you know, $5, $10, $120.
01:46:04.000There were some people that even made $500 donations.
01:46:11.000But if you do want to support my work and you want to
01:46:14.000Make sure that we have funds so that I could potentially go out to Maine or Colorado and go confront the secretaries of states there that are removing Trump from the ballot.
01:46:23.000You can, of course, contribute to the GiveSendGo.
01:46:26.000GiveSendGo.com slash LoomerInIowa and any funds that are left over will then be used to plan the additional trips.
01:48:03.000I even said today to the team, I was like, you know, instead of having to go pay for like, you know, a ride share or something or to pay for a cab, let's just have food delivered because I don't want to have to go pay to go to the restaurant and then also go there, you know?
01:48:18.000So I'm really frugal when it comes to your money because I want to make sure that every single dollar is spent well and my production team is rolling their eyes at me right now in the corner over there.
01:48:29.000Because I'm holding them hostage in the house and I said, no, we're staying here all day.
01:48:33.000So we're going to order food delivery and you're going to work.
01:48:36.000You're going to work like you're going to work.
01:48:37.000And I'm basically like a slave master, you know, making everybody work.
01:48:40.000So I have a great team, of course, as well.
01:48:55.000Be careful, because DeSantis already did.
01:48:57.000Yeah, be careful, because who knows, there's probably someone on Team... I wouldn't even be surprised if it was a DeSantis supporter that had me swatted last week.
01:49:33.000And, you know, in the cold weather as well, it's been really hard on my lungs, and so I have asthma.
01:49:41.000As many of you know, it's really hard for me to breathe in this cold weather, which is also why I'm really grateful that, you know, I have the next sponsor that I'm going to tell you all about as well.
01:49:54.000And so let me pull this up because we just did a read for them the other day.
01:50:01.000I was recently told that if I didn't want to get sick and I wanted to have overall health, one of the supplements that I should be taking more of is magnesium and I realized that I've had a magnesium deficiency and so I myself started incorporating a magnesium supplement into my life so that I could have overall, you know, better optimal wellness and also sleep better.
01:50:24.000I'm always stressed out which is probably why my asthma is so bad because
01:50:29.000I'm sure it's a combination of allergies and being in the cold weather, but also, too, my asthma.
01:50:35.000Personally, I'll share something about myself.
01:50:37.000I have really bad anxiety, and so anytime I, like, get really stressed out, my lungs constrict, and so I have a hard time sometimes managing anxiety.
01:51:41.000Don't really I'm not a big fan of New Year's resolutions I know that we're in a new year right now, but I do want more balance in my life And so I'm gonna really try to let go of things that I personally cannot control so that I'm not always stressed out and pissed off about everything because There's so much to be pissed off out pissed off out pissed off about on a daily basis and I kind of need to reduce my stress levels and so that's why I'm gonna be taking a
01:52:05.000My magnesium breakthrough so that I can sleep better as well because as you know I'm just like Donald Trump and I tweet at 3 o'clock in the morning and I probably should be sleeping instead of tweeting but sometimes you just got to break a story you know so sleep is a little bit overrated and as I say I'll sleep when I'm dead someday but I do definitely want to reduce my stress and I don't get enough magnesium through my diet because let's be honest like when you're running around as much as I do you're probably not even eating as much as you should let alone
01:52:35.000You know, the types of foods that you should be eating.
01:52:37.000And so, if you want to get up to 10% off your magnesium breakthrough and improve your overall health and incorporate magnesium into your life, go to buyoptimizers.com slash lumer.
01:54:05.000Yeah, I never had asthma before I had COVID, and then I had COVID two years ago, and then I have an albuterol inhaler that I take, and then sometimes, like, I literally cannot breathe.
01:54:19.000There's times where I just have a really hard time breathing.
01:54:22.000But the cold weather, that's why it's probably really toasty in here, because every time I'm inside, I put the heat on like 78, because I just... I don't know, I'll wake up in the middle of the night, honestly.
01:54:35.000That's another reason why I like the magnesium, because it makes you sleep better, because I have such a hard time breathing.
01:54:40.000I have the worst asthma, and the magnesium... I mean, it's all connected, right?
01:54:46.000If you have stress-induced asthma, like I do,
01:54:50.000Then, lowering your cortisol levels helps, and so the magnesium helps with that.
01:55:11.000I don't really recommend it to anybody.
01:55:15.000You have to take care of yourself, and especially if you have asthma too, you can find yourself in really bad situations at times.
01:55:22.000Everybody who knows me, my entire production team, knows that I always have an inhaler in my purse, because there are times, really, where I'll be, you know, chasing somebody, or I'll be, you know, running around trying to get a story, and I'll have an asthma attack.
01:58:40.000But hopefully you will come out and come learn how you can caucus for Trump.
01:58:44.000We're going to have caucus materials there, like caucus cards.
01:58:47.000I'm not caucusing for Trump because I don't live in Iowa, but volunteers from President Trump's campaign are going to come to the watch party and bring Commit to Caucus cards.
01:58:58.000And there should be some, you know, Trump signs there if you want Trump signs as well.
01:59:04.000As everybody knows, I've endorsed President Trump and, you know, I fully support President Trump and I want to make sure that we get as much exposure as possible.
01:59:12.000And not everybody can get tickets to these town halls, so what better way than to just have our own watch party?
01:59:17.000Yeah, it's very hard to get into actual town halls, but the watch parties are usually more fun because you have to be quiet in the studios.
01:59:23.000You know, to be quiet at a watch party, it's a party.
01:59:25.000Yeah, so I hope that you're all going to come out to that.
01:59:28.000It's going to be a really great event.
01:59:31.000Let's see if there's any comments because.
01:59:38.000Let's see, we have a few more comments.
02:00:12.000We got checked into our place and there's a snowstorm.
02:00:15.000We didn't have the rental car yet Okay, because we're getting we're picking up the rental car tomorrow.
02:00:20.000And so we're like, oh my god, where do we go?
02:00:22.000Because nobody's gonna come pick us up right now.
02:00:25.000There's no cars driving on the road right now because the snow was so bad.
02:00:30.000And so we're staying at a place and the only thing open late at night because it was like almost 9 30 at night by the time we wanted to go eat and the only thing that was open was a McDonald's and so we walked in the snow across the train tracks to go get McDonald's.
02:02:21.000I'm from Arizona originally, and I grew up with horses.
02:02:26.000I went to boarding school on a horse, France, actually.
02:02:28.000And when I was in boarding school, I was the manager of the school rodeo team.
02:02:33.000My boarding school had a rodeo team, and so I would help get all the horses ready, and we had a traveling rodeo team, and I would feed all the horses, yeah.
02:03:48.000And that is exactly why we are waiting till tomorrow to get the rental car, because the producer, who is originally from Iowa, my producer, who knows how to drive in snow, is coming tomorrow.
02:11:35.000In the meantime, let's take a couple more questions.
02:12:00.000It's not an episode of Loomer Unleashed, it's just more livestreamed content of the watch party.
02:12:06.000And so, Loomer Unleashed will resume on Thursday.
02:12:10.000But of course, you can tune in and watch the livestream tomorrow from 6.30 Central to about 10pm Eastern on my Rumble channel, rumble.com slash lauraloomer.
02:12:19.000Be sure that you download the Rumble app and that you're following.
02:14:29.000And you can tell he's not just bullshitting you because he'll say things like, Oh, you know, I love your site.
02:14:34.000And I can tell because I've literally seen him in person at events and his secretary and staff carry around papers to constantly show him what's going on in the news.
02:14:44.000And he has my articles in the stack of papers.
02:15:17.000He really, honestly, is the most hospital person I've ever met in my life.
02:15:22.000And just the fact that there's people, like some of the wealthiest people in the world would pay godly amounts of money to have dinner with President Trump or to just be in the same room with him.
02:15:33.000And I have really nothing of financial value to give this man.
02:15:37.000And he's like, Oh, bring your friends, you know, at Bedminster, like when I'm there, your friends can come up and sit with me.
02:15:42.000And meanwhile, there's all these pro athletes.
02:15:45.000And I don't know, I just, I wish people got to see just how really
02:15:50.000Genuine he is it's not like he expects anything out of anybody.
02:15:53.000He really is just a laid-back funny guy And he's always joking and I asked him I said, you know, mr. President.
02:18:11.000And when I was with President Trump at Bedminster, surrounded by, you know, all these people, pro athletes, I don't even know anything about golf.
02:18:18.000And I'm sitting there sharing pizza and chicken nuggets and french fries with the President of the United States.
02:19:46.000When I say I have nothing to offer, it's
02:19:49.000I'm not able to cut a million-dollar check.
02:19:52.000But what you do is worth more, arguably.
02:19:56.000I live a very humble lifestyle, but what I'm able to offer is my loyalty and my motivation, my drive, and my intellect, what's in my mind, right?
02:20:09.000But there's a lot of very powerful rich people that have been in the same room and I've witnessed it and Donald Trump has literally just like, I don't want to say like ignored them because he doesn't really ignore anybody, but I have watched President Trump spend more time with a random person who has nothing of monetary value to offer him, who's just a fan, an ordinary American, while there's a billionaire in the corner waiting.
02:20:35.000I have seen that and most people would not do that.
02:21:14.000You know, Ben Bennett, you know, a donors event that President Trump has been at, and I've seen this interaction play out time and time again.
02:23:21.000Also, another thing, too, that people say, I hate seeing this online, they're like, oh, he doesn't know the names of his own grandchildren, or he doesn't, like, you know, even care about his children, or, oh, he forgot to post about, you know, Melania's birthday.
02:23:34.000First of all, when I was at Bedminster, his grandkids, and I don't, like I said, I don't want to, like, reveal personal information, because I want to respect his privacy, but I will say that when I was at Bedminster with President Trump, his grandkids came in, and they love their grandfather.
02:23:48.000And they all just, they were like fighting for his attention and jumping on his lap.
02:23:52.000And he's like, oh, which one of you is number one in your class?
02:23:55.000And they want to impress their grandfather so badly.
02:23:59.000When I say they were fighting, like play fighting, right?
02:24:05.000You know, they really want to impress him because he instilled that type of drive and character, not even in his own children, who are wildly successful, but also the little grandkids, you know, they know.
02:24:16.000And so he definitely knows the names of his grandkids and he's sitting there telling me, oh, you know, he just turned this age and, you know, he's the top of his class and people don't get to see that because of the court hearings and, you know, the way that they portray him, but he really is a loving grandfather.
02:24:37.000And even in the middle of a golf tournament, right, when all these pro athletes and donors are sitting in his private box, right, he's giving all of his attention to the grandkids.
02:24:46.000So, I hate when I see these nasty people online and these assholes say things like, oh, Donald Trump doesn't even know the names of his grandkids.
02:26:25.000I'm very down to earth, and that's why I hope all of you come on out to my watch party tomorrow so that you can see.
02:26:32.000We're gonna have pizza, we're gonna have meatballs, it's all catered.
02:26:35.000It's free, you guys, too, so even if you just wanna come out and get a free slice of pizza and come meet me, the details, of course, are on my ex account.
02:27:48.000If you want to come out and meet me and Joey, we're going to be doing live stream commentary and hosting the watch party, the official watch party for President Trump's town hall.
02:27:57.000Which is hosted by Fox News in Des Moines, Iowa.
02:30:00.000But be sure that you're following my ex account because I'm posting a million times a day, live updates of course, and we're going to continue our coverage here on the ground in snowy Iowa.
02:30:11.000So stay tuned and I will see you all tomorrow and Thursday as well for another episode of Loomer Unleashed.
02:30:19.000Thanks so much for tuning in to episode 20.
