‘Should MAGA stay home in 2026?’ Laura Loomer wages ‘racist’ war against ‘tech bros’ over Indian migrants

The far-right provacateur is taking aim at Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy over their support of highly skilled workers from India, claiming that the country’s residents have a low IQ and describing Indians as “third world invaders.”. Trump acolyte and self-proclaimed “proud Islamophobe” Laura Loomer is threatening to tell MAGA to “stay home” during the next midterm elections amid an escalating feud with “tech bros” Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy over Silicon Valley’s reliance on foreign-born workers.
“The average IQ in India is 76,” Loomer tweeted at one point, along with several other posts disparaging Indians and their home country. Meanwhile, Loomer has directed much of her ire directly at Musk, labeling him a “stage 5 clinger” and questioning whether the DOGE government efficiency advisory committee he co-chairs with Ramaswamy would “cut spending” or just redirect funds “toward the pet projects of tech billionaires.”.
After an Indian immigrant called her opposition to high-skilled immigration “fundamentally anti-American,” Loomer’s commentary became more bigoted and offensive. While Ramaswamy cited 1990s sitcoms as a key reason why there aren’t enough qualified American-born engineers, claiming that was why the tech industry needed more workers from India, Musk sounded off that the “number of people who are super talented engineers AND super motivated in the USA is far too low.”.
