Marjorie Taylor Greene warns Trump against hiring far-right activist Laura Loomer, calling her 'mentally unstable and a documented liar'

• The Georgia Republican warned Trump not to hire Laura Loomer to work on his 2024 campaign.

• Greene and far-right activist Loomer once publicly praised one another, but they are now feuding.

• The New York Times reported that Trump wanted to hire Loomer, but sources said the plan was scrapped.

Rep. Majorie Taylor Greene and far-right activist Laura Loomer are feuding after the congresswoman said she would warn former President Donald Trump against hiring her to work on his 2024 presidential campaign.

The war of words was sparked by a The New York Times report that said Trump had told aides to hire Loomer, a self-described "proud Islamophobe" who has promoted COVID-19 misinformation.

Greene took to Twitter on Friday to say Loomer is "mentally unstable and a documented liar" who "can not be trusted."

The Georgia Republican listed various complaints about Loomer, including claims that the activist attacked her for supporting Kevin McCarthy's bid for House speaker and for not endorsing Loomer in her most recent congressional campaign.

She also claimed that Loomer loves "weirdo" Nick Fuentes, the conservative firebrand and white supremacist who Trump had a controversial dinner with in November along with rapper Ye, formerly known as Kanye West.

"Never hire or do business with a liar. Liars are toxic and poisonous to everything they touch. I'll make sure he knows," Greene said about Loomer.

Loomer responded with multiple tweets attacking Greene, calling her a liar and describing her behavior as "not very "Christian."

Loomer shared a video of the congresswoman praising her in 2018, and claimed that she had screenshots of Greene promising to endorse her for Congress and accused her of changing her mind after she "made deals with McCarthy."

She also criticized Greene for hiring Milo Yiannopoulos, a British alt-right provocateur, to intern for her last year, and accused her of not doing enough to attack Trump's rival, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.

After Greene and other MAGA world figures reacted negatively to The New York Times report, a high-ranking campaign official told the paper that Loomer was no longer going to be hired.

The controversial activist was barred from ride-hail apps Lyft and Uber and temporarily banned from Twitter for making bigoted comments.

It is not clear what sparked their feud. Greene and Loomer once publicly praised and defended one another, but the relationship has since soured.
