She is the loudest, most aggressive pro-Israel voice in Donald Trump's orbit.
So when Laura Loomer leaned in close to the President two months ago and warned him that the American public was giving up on the Jewish State, his two-word reply landed like a thunderclap, carrying an ominous message for Benjamin Netanyahu.
'You're probably going to be the last pro-Israel President we ever have,' Loomer recounted telling Trump, in an interview with the New York Times.
Trump, she says, replied: 'You're right.'
The White House pointedly did not deny the exchange. Spokeswoman Anna Kelly instead offered a boilerplate response that Israel 'has always been a great ally to the United States' and that its military was an 'incredible partner' in Iran.
Even Loomer, the far-right firebrand who has made it her mission to purge MAGA of anyone who wavers on Israel, concedes there has been a marked shift in public opinion, notably among Republicans.
She went so far as to suggest Israel should accept the elimination of US military aid, currently a $38 billion 10-year package set to expire in 2028.
'I don't foresee the GOP being as explicitly pro-Israel anymore,' Loomer told the Times. 'Whether the criticism is legitimate or not, or whether it's foreign funded or not, it's there. And perception is reality.'
Loomer said she has been courting donors on the importance of Israel as she prepares to launch a newsletter, The Loomer Rumor, which will focus on 'opposition research' to expose right-wing figures she brands the 'Woke Reich.'
Chief among her targets is former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, who disavowed Trump over the war and last month apologized to his listeners for endorsing the President.
Facing skeptical questions from MAGA-aligned college students about US support for Israel, JD Vance recently suggested his support for Jerusalem is not unequivocal.
'Israel, sometimes they have similar interests to the United States, and we're going to work with them in that case. Sometimes, they don't have similar interests,' he said at the University of Mississippi in October.
During a book tour event in Los Angeles in March, likely 2028 Democratic presidential candidate Gavin Newsom suggested Israel was heading toward being 'sort of an apartheid state' before walking the comments back.
Trump remains adamant that Israel must not have a nuclear weapon but is increasingly pressing for a peace deal with Iran as the Republican Party faces crucial midterm elections in November.
He is on the verge of securing a sweeping truce with Iran that would lift US sanctions, free billions in frozen assets and open a path to uranium enrichment, mirroring the Barack Obama pact he spent years trashing.
A one-page, 14-point memorandum of understanding is being negotiated between senior Iranian officials and Trump envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, Axios reported Wednesday. The White House believes the memo could finalize a framework to end the war within 48 hours.
If signed, a 30-day window would open for both countries to negotiate a larger agreement covering the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, the lifting of all US sanctions on Iran, and new limits on its nuclear program.
The deal calls for Iran to halt all uranium enrichment for 12 to 15 years with automatic extensions if Tehran violates the terms.
Another key provision would have the regime remove its highly enriched uranium stockpile from the country, though the memo does not specify a destination.
Trump has been at pains to avoid anything resembling the 2015 Obama deal he spent years trashing as the 'worst deal ever.' But the emerging framework echoes it in striking ways, with sanctions lifted, frozen billions released and Iran capped at the same 3.67 percent enrichment level agreed to by Obama.
Oil prices plunged on news of the proposed deal with Brent crude, the global benchmark, falling by more than 10 percent to below $100 per barrel. The Dow rose 1.2 percent; the S&P 500 surged 1.5 percent; and the Nasdaq climbed 2 percent.
Trump sent out a post on Truth Social urging the regime to make peace as details of his latest proposal emerged.
'Assuming Iran agrees to give what has been agreed to, which is, perhaps, a big assumption, the already legendary Epic Fury will be at an end, and the highly effective Blockade will allow the Hormuz Strait to be OPEN TO ALL, including Iran,' Trump wrote.
'If they don't agree, the bombing starts, and it will be, sadly, at a much higher level and intensity than it was before.'
The memo also requires Iran to commit to never seeking a nuclear weapon or conducting weapons testing activities, points the regime has previously agreed to.
Diplomats are discussing an additional clause that would bar Iran from operating underground nuclear facilities.
Trump's latest proposal does not appear to place any limits on Iran's ballistic missile program.
However, the regime would commit to further nuclear inspections, including snap reviews by UN specialists and investigators.
The lifting of sanctions imposed on Iran and the release of billions in frozen Iranian funds from across the globe would be a gradual process, according to US officials.
Israel is already lining up fresh strikes on Iran should the deal collapse, with senior Iranian officials and the country's energy infrastructure squarely in the crosshairs, an Israeli source told CNN.
The bombardments had been ready for execution on the eve of the ceasefire agreed in early April and were accelerated again this week after Iranian missiles were fired toward the United Arab Emirates on Monday.
Netanyahu, wary of Tehran's peace overtures from the outset, is said to favor 'a short campaign aimed at pressuring Iran into further concessions in negotiations,' the source added.
