  • When President Trump fired Timothy Hawke, the head of the National Security Administration and U.S.

  • Cyber Command last week, he didn't say why.

  • But Laura Loomer, who'd met with Trump a day earlier, took credit.

  • She said on Twitter that Hawke was disloyal to President Trump.

  • Laura Loomer, chaos agent, activist, proud Islamophobe, her words, influencer, trickster, trespasser.

  • We do.

  • You're on private property, so you're trespassing.

  • How?

  • I'm really confused.

  • Nancy said everyone was locked in here.

  • Did you know who Nancy Pelosi is?

  • Yes, I do.

  • She has Trump's ear, maybe even his respect.

  • You don't want to be loomered.

  • If you're loomered, you're in deep trouble.

  • And she's just getting started in Washington.

  • That's a head on Today Explained.
