According to the Washington Post, right-wing activist and Trump ally Laura Lommer reportedly received more than $60,000 in payments from private clients for political social media posts without publicly disclosing the arrangements.
Lommer has previously promoted pro-Russian narratives, including opposing US military aid to Ukraine and accusing Ukraine of being a country full of Nazi sympathizers.
However, following a visit to Ukraine in July 2026, she became vocal about her position, admitting that she was misled by Russian propaganda and believed false claims about Ukraine.
Lommer denies being paid to publish political posts.
