Only months after Donald Trump Jr. floated Laura Loomer as a White House press secretary, Loomer used her platform on Rumble to launch into a half-hour long racist screed against Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Somalians living in America, birthright citizenship, and Muslims. Loomer begun the show by referring to Rep. Omar as a "black dog" whose "district is literally Somalia," and claimed that Omar's constituents are "breeding like rabbits. I guess they've never heard of something called birth control. Unfortunate for us. Unfortunate for Western civilization" and "modern-day jihadi welfare queens." After claiming that Rep. Omar's relatives "sleep in caves and have sex with goats in Al-Shabaab," Loomer declared "I really do believe in IQ science," "some of the people that have the lowest IQs are Somalis," and claimed that Rep. Omar is "so inbred that they have an IQ that is legally classified as mental retardation": Loomer also ran with a blatant mistranslation of Omar's speech about the Republic of Somaliland. Later, she also used line taken blatantly out of context of Omar speaking about 9/11.
You remember that line from The Boys where Stormfront says
Goddamn were they right about that one. It’s the same as when Alex Jones blames the “globalists” because he knows outright saying “the Jews” is bad.
Many years ago, journalist Jon Ronson did a miniseries in the UK called Secret Rulers of the World. In one episode, he follows around David Icke as he talks about lizard people and asks Icke if he means Jews when he says lizard people and Icke won’t give him a straight answer. In another episode, he follows Alex Jones to Bohemian Gove. When he’s asked if Icke means Jews, Jones’ response was, “well there are Jews and then there are Jews.”
Of course, only those of us in America who are Anglophilic enough to watch such things via sailing the high seas would have heard him say that, and it was long before he was at the level he is now.
If you’ve never heard of it, there’s a podcast called Knowledge Fight that’s devoted to debunking Alex Jones. They even had Jon Ronson on late last year. It’s weird to me to see how prevalent pro-Israel antisemitism hypocrisy is in conspiracy circles, but I guess if they were rational they wouldn’t be conspiracy nuts in the first place.
