WASHINGTON, DC: A claim is spreading online that President Donald Trump loyalist Laura Loomer is pregnant with Malaysian conservative commentator Ian Miles Cheong’s child.

The claim first appeared on November 23 in a post by the X (formerly Twitter) account Dissident Wire. By the time of writing, it had racked up more than 2.1 million views, 1.5k comments, and 13k likes, sparking widespread questions across the internet about the claim's authenticity. 



Fact Check: No, Laura Loomer is not pregnant with Ian Miles Cheong's child

The X account @DissidentWire, where the rumor originated, clearly identifies itself as a parody account. “News and alerts from around the world. Not affiliated with any organization, podcast, or activist. Parody,” the bio states.

A Google News search combining “Laura Loomer,” “Ian Miles Cheong,” and “pregnant” returned no results.

Loomer also addressed the rumor on X four hours ago, slamming the X account and saying, “Stop lying.” The 'Loomer Unleashed' founder added, “One, I’m not pregnant,” and called out the altered image circulating online, pointing out its absurd edits.



Cheong has not responded to the rumor as of the time of writing.

Laura Loomer calls out Marjorie Taylor Greene after her resignation announcement



Laura Loomer recently criticized Marjorie Taylor Greene after the Republican congresswoman announced she will resign from Congress, setting her last day for January 5, 2026.

Loomer called Greene “a greedy woman” on X, accusing her of putting money above her country.

“Such a greedy woman. Her love for money over her country is what led to the traitor’s downfall. And so many people are eating it up,” Loomer wrote, demanding to know why Greene won’t step down immediately.



“Because this is and always has been about enriching yourself. Admit it. I know how you operate, sick woman,” she added.

Loomer doubled down in a separate post, claiming, “MTG decided to resign on January 5th, 2026. Her federal pension kicks in on January 3, 2026. It’s all about the money for her. Always has been. She’s doing this for the money. Expect to see her portfolio explode between now and January 2026.” Loomer also branded Greene as “Marjorie TRADER Greene.”



Loomer fired off a triumphant one-word message, “LOOMERED,” just minutes after Greene posted her resignation statement on X. She accused Greene of helping Democrats, writing, “She will probably get a deal with CNN or MSDNC to s**t talk Trump all day throughout the midterms. She wants the Democrats to win. How much was she paid? That’s what I want to know.”
