Laura Loomer, a far-right activist and loyal supporter of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, has sparked widespread backlash after making inflammatory remarks about Indian immigrants. The controversy comes amid ongoing debates over reforms to the H-1B visa program, a key pathway for skilled workers in the United States.
“Our country was built by white Europeans, actually. Not third-world invaders from India,” Loomer wrote. She further stated, “It’s not racist against Indians to want the original MAGA policies I voted for. I voted for a reduction in H-1B visas. Not an extension.”
