Laura Loomer, the far-right influencer and vocal Ukraine skeptic, performed a stunning about-turn after visiting Kyiv and meeting President Zelenskyy. In an interview, she now calls for moral clarity and acknowledges the daily reality of air raids.
Loomer's Reversal: From Kremlin Propaganda to Moral Clarity
