Donald Trump heaped praise on Laura Loomer as he appeared in a social media video with the anti-Muslim conspiracy theorist over the weekend.
Ms Loomer, who is best known for pushing conspiracies about the Parkland mass shooting, posted a video with the former president on Sunday in which he called her “very special”, “terrific”, and “a very opinionated lady”.
The bizarre encounter came after the former president appeared at the Iowa State Fair on Saturday and continued to rail against Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis ahead of what is expected to be his fourth criminal indictment.
Ms Willis’s office has notified at least two witnesses to appear on Tuesday before the grand jury in Georgia as part of the investigation into his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results in the state.
Presenting a case to jurors early this week is the strongest indication yet that prosecutors are preparing to issue indictments in the coming days.
In the latest revelation regarding the sweeping case, CNN reports that prosecutors are in possession of text messages and emails directly connecting Mr Trump’s legal team to an early January 2021 voting systems breach in Coffee County.
