This is absolutely amazing.

I will translate this minute-and-a-half fragment literally, because this is unprecedented.

This is Laura Loomer, in case anyone doesn't recognize her face. A very influential MAGA blogger and activist. So influential that, rumor has it, on her tip Trump once fired General Jeffrey Kruse, the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency (Trump himself denied this).

Naturally, Loomer is pro-Russian, like most of MAGA. She considered Putin a "defender of traditional values" and wrote a column for RT. She believed that in this way Russia was giving her freedom of speech that America was not giving her.

And now Laura Loomer has sent her correspondent Andrew Moore to Ukraine. Laura admitted that she had previously hesitated over whether to send a correspondent to Ukraine, because she was afraid she would get hated for her anti-Ukrainian position.

Listen to what she says:

"Now that I see how they [the Russians] say things like 'we need to denazify Ukraine and we need to continue our brutal war against Ukraine' while pretending to be some kind of Orthodox Christian country, while killing thousands, hundreds of thousands of young Christians in Ukraine, and also supporting actual neo-Nazis in the US by making clips from their podcasts, I'm like: 'Wow, we fell for Russian propaganda. I fell for Russian propaganda.'

So when Loomer Unleashed had the opportunity to send a correspondent to Ukraine so he could go to the front line and meet with Ukrainian officials - and there were a lot of American senators at the Odesa Security Conference - Andrew [Moore] asked me whether I would approve sending a correspondent to Ukraine.

I thought about it for a while. I hesitated over whether to do it, because I thought: 'What will people think of me?' I had been so anti-Ukrainian for so long, I had repeated these talking points, thinking I was saying something right, not realizing how much I, as a conservative and a Trump supporter or as a citizen of America, had been emotionally manipulated by online propaganda.

So I was a little ashamed - to be completely honest - to send a correspondent abroad, because I thought: 'Well, people will attack me, they'll say I'm a hypocrite, they won't be grateful and they won't give me the opportunity to change my mind.'"

Now Laura Loomer on her Telegram is exposing Dugin and believes that Russia has no right to call itself a defender of Christians after the strike on the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra.

Laura, I'm glad you've changed your position. Welcome to the right side of history.

Laura Loomer said she fell for Russian propaganda after sending a reporter to Ukraine.

Field reporting beat the talking points.
