Laura Loomer attacks Tucker Carlson, accuses him of ‘woke’ stance
Public feud escalates over remarks on religion
Far-right commentator Laura Loomer has sharply criticised media personality Tucker Carlson following his comments condemning rhetoric seen as mocking Islam and religion.
The exchange marks a fresh escalation in an ongoing public dispute between the two, played out prominently on social media platforms.
Loomer targets Carlson on social media
Loomer posted a video clip of Carlson on X, formerly Twitter, accusing him of having a “full blown meltdown” and describing him as a “woke leftist.” She also used the nickname “Tucker Qatarlson” in her post.
The message quickly gained traction online, adding to a series of recent remarks by Loomer targeting Carlson’s positions and public statements.

Carlson criticises remarks linked to Trump
In the shared video, Carlson criticised statements attributed to US President Donald Trump that were widely viewed as mocking Islam.
He said mocking any religion undermines the broader concept of faith, stating that “no decent person mocks other people’s religions.”
Carlson also objected to a social media post made on Easter, which included profanity and the phrase “praise be to Allah,” calling it offensive to Christians.
Comments highlight broader concerns on faith and leadership
Carlson said such messaging was inappropriate, particularly from a political leader. He added that “no president should mock Islam,” stressing that governance should not involve deriding religious beliefs.
He further argued that faith represents an acknowledgment beyond individual control, describing it as a fundamental principle shared across religions.
Loomer intensifies criticism campaign
Loomer framed Carlson’s defence of religious sentiment as a departure from his earlier positions. Her use of the nickname targeting him has been repeated in recent weeks as part of a sustained line of criticism.
According to reports, she has also called on Trump to distance himself from Carlson, at one point describing him as a “national security threat.”
The episode reflects widening divisions among conservative commentators in the United States, particularly over issues related to religion, political messaging, and public discourse.
The ongoing exchange between Loomer and Carlson continues to draw attention online, with both figures maintaining strong followings and influence in political commentary circles.
