INFLUENCE magazine thought it scored a scoop when it landed Laura Loomer for an interview. What it really scored was a liability risk. The editors slapped a disclaimer at the top warning readers that the claims inside had not been fact-checked or independently verified. That is the kind of sentence you normally see before a Bigfoot documentary or a late-night infomercial. Not an interview with someone who insists she belongs on Capitol Hill.

Inside the Alternate Universe of Laura Loomer

This is Loomer world. Logic takes a vacation, and common sense files for a restraining order.

Florida politics has seen its share of oddballs. That state invented the phrase Florida Man. But Laura Loomer has achieved something rare. She has become Florida Woman with a capital F. The interview reads like a guided tour through her imagination.

The magazine printed her words and backed away slowly.

A Florida political magazine scored an interview with Laura Loomer, and prefaced it with a disclaimer warning readers that the claims she made “have not been fact checked or independently verified.”

INFLUENCE magazine is published by Peter Schorsch, who also runs the Florida Politics website. The magazine is a chatty tour with the elected officials, candidates, lobbyists, consultants, attorneys, and media figures who play various roles in “The Process,” as Sunshine State politicos colloquially refer to the political scene here. Flipping through the pages, in either the print or online edition, includes everything from glossy ads from the state’s biggest lobbying firms, political analysis columns, and interviews with Floridians who have — as the front cover says — influence.

The Myth of the Fearless Truth Teller

Loomer repeated her favorite story about social media banning her because she is such a fearless truth-teller. Anyone familiar with her feed knows why the platforms booted her. She spent years firing off grenade after grenade at Muslims, cab drivers, rideshare drivers, entire countries, and occasional members of Congress. This was not investigative reporting. It was Loomer being Loomer.

And yes, it happened during the pre-Musk era when Big Tech treated every political opinion like a biohazard. Even in that ridiculous climate, Loomer stood out for giving them reasons on a silver platter. She did not fall victim to censorship. Loomer charged at it like she was auditioning for the part.

The magazine’s caution about Loomer’s commentary was well-founded. Reading the article itself (begins on page 146), multiple claims by Loomer pop out as unfounded, unverifiable, questionable, or just plain false. Fact-checking her is an exhausting endeavor, but one which is alleviated by her habit of endlessly recycling already-debunked or never-verified claims she’s made before over the years. – Mediaite

From Fake Fraud Claims to Thirsty Ambitions

She revived her 2022 congressional primary loss, the one she insists was stolen, even though she lost by about seven points. The result was clear across the district, including the parts that dip into Orange County. There were no glitches, no malfunctions, and not a single hint of anything suspicious. It was a loss wrapped inside a landslide for the guy who actually did the work. The only person shocked that a long-time incumbent beat her was Laura herself, which says everything about the world she lives in.

Loomer is so thirsty that she is already teasing on social media about sliding into Marjorie Taylor Greene’s soon-to-be-empty spot. She talks like the next run is inevitable. America does not need to watch that happen.

Imaginary Endorsements and Other Bedtime Stories

Then came the Trump stories. Loomer wants everyone to believe she has private assurances, secret promises, and whispered endorsements directly from the man himself. Trump contradicts himself before breakfast. Nobody can verify what he told her. And nobody will try.

Indeed. Exhausting.

The interview reads like a jilted older actress trapped in her own reruns, delivering the same monologue she gave three seasons ago and hoping someone notices.

A Disclaimer Strong Enough to Need a Disclaimer

The funniest part of the entire interview is the magazine’s attempt to look neutral while clearly bracing for impact. They called her a Florida Woman with influence. That is a polite way of saying she is a headline generator with a loyal following and a talent for chaos. They gave her space and warned the public. They washed their hands.

And honestly, that warning was the wisest edit they made. Loomer’s claims come rapid fire. Some are recycled from years ago. Most have already been laughed out of court. And some are simply impossible to fact-check because they require psychic powers.

INFLUENCE promised readers Loomer in her own words. They delivered. They also reminded everyone why her words needed a disclaimer in the first place.
