According to Republican Rep. Don Bacon, Laura Loomer, conspiracy theorist and whisperer in the ear of President Trump, is once again behind a major change in the already crippled leadership at the National Security Agency (NSA), with the White House now pulling its nomination of Joe Francescon to be Deputy Director of the NSA due to meddling by Loomer, who claimed that Francescon had donated to a Democrat in 2023. The NSA has not had a Director or Deputy Director in over eight months, while U.S. Cyber Command (CYBERCOM) also remains without a Commanding General, following the removal of Gen. Timothy D. Haugh in April at the wishes of Loomer, who alleged that Haugh was “disloyal” to Trump.
