Conservative firebrand Loomer easily wins Republican primary
A good sign: Conservative firebrand and outsider Laura Loomer easily won her Republican primary today in Florida, beating five opponents by a large margin.
Loomer gained prominence on social media over the past few years for a number of stunts, including handcuffing herself to Twitter’s headquarters to protest her suspension from the platform and hopping the fence at Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s house to protest immigration. In addition to her suspension from Twitter, Loomer has also been suspended from GoFundMe, Facebook, Uber, and Lyft.
After being suspended from multiple platforms, Loomer’s campaign message was that of free speech, “making America safe again,” and the Second Amendment. With the help of large donors, Loomer raised more than $1 million while campaigning.
She will now face the Democratic incumbent, Lois Frankel, in the November election.
Readers!
Every February I run a fund-raising drive during my birthday month. This year I celebrate my 72nd birthday, and hope and plan to continue writing and posting on Behind the Black for as long as I am able.
I hope my readers will support this effort. As I did in my November fund-raising drive, I am offering autographed copies of my books for large donations. Donate $250 and you can have a choice of the hardback of either Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8 or Conscious Choice: The origins of slavery in America and why it matters today and for our future in outer space. Donate $200 and you can get an autographed paperback copy of either. IMPORTANT! If you donate enough to get a book, please email me separately to tell me which book you want and the address to mail it to.
Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. My analysis of space, politics, and culture, taken from the perspective of an historian, is almost always on the money and ahead of the game. For example, in 2020 I correctly predicted that the COVID panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Every one of those 2020 conclusions has turned out right.
Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.
You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:
1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.
2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:
4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to

The 21st District as it exists now, post-2010 redistricting, is pretty heavily blue: Hilary and Obama both won it by 20 points. But maybe Loomer can make some noise.
On her stance for the 2nd amendment, my friends tell me ammunition is at a premium and hand gun sales have depleted stocks.
Me thinks the dims should be awarded an honor for re-stimulating the firearm sales.
Likewise, I am hoping there will be many more like her looming on the horizon. As with Covid jokes, it is a real pundemic.
She has all the right enemies.
She is an up and comer and looking to unseat an incumbent. This is good new. Every incumbent should be tossed out on the keester for their power structures and back-room deals.
I hope she wins.
RINOS TO REVEAL THEMSELVES, DEMOCRATS NOW EMBRACE PEDOS
All of the speakers at the Democrat convention that call themselves Republicans but are well known to actually be RINOS (Republicans in name only) have been flushed out by Trump. And of course the Democrats are unable to recognize that Bill Clinton is now accused of also being a pedo as per the young woman that accompanied both he and Jeffery Epstein to pedo island. They will all speak at the Democrat convention.
John Kasich, a zero, really a political zero.
Collin Powell, called himself a Republican, but you always knew he was a Democrat.
Cindy MaCain, we know why she is there.
Christy Todd “There is no problem with the air quality at ground zero” Whitman.
And, former president, William Jefferson “I did not have sex with that woman, and I was never on Pedo Island with Jeffery Epstein, even though there is a credible woman who says you were there with 2 under age girls Clinton. The Democrat party and the cancel culture is unable to detect him. How does that happen? Simple, he is a Democrat.
(Can you imagine the videos and the pictures that must exist in Epstein’s files that no one will ever see and will be used for years to “influence” those people in those videos and pictures? And who is in possession of those files? Is this an unreasonable assumption? I don’t think so.)
And Trump forces them all to reveal themselves for what they are, Liberals at the minimum and Globalists at the max and people who desire to raze our Constitution as it was designed and intended.
And that is the function of the Trump presidency.
And the Democrat party really is the all inclusive party, here Linda Sarsour, America hater and Leftist is among the participants in their convention.
https://nypost.com/2020/08/19/biden-campaign-denies-linda-sarsour-ties-after-dnc-appearance/
And we all understand that Joe Biden, at least to these Leftists like Sarsour, AOC and the like is just the best Bernie Sanders proxy they can get.
And that is the real contest I wanted to see: Trump / Capitalism / Constitution V Bernie Sanders / Communist / Leftist / “progressive”.
Biden is a beard for Sanders and his “progressive” agenda and that is what this is all really about. Because a Trump V
Bernie head to head contest would have been an immediate disaster. The Trump V Biden contest is a just slow motion political train wreck.
But I suspect the end result will be the same.
I voted for her. ( Loomer ) One of our local morning AM radio drive time hosts pointed out that several conservative Trump – supporting candidates across Florida won unexpectedly , and this may foretell a Republican tsunami in November . We should all stay strong and do what we can to make this happen !
Of course, NBC’s headline on this story calls her a “right wing extremist”.
