Laura Loomer Issues Apology After Controversial Doxxing Incident Involving Trump's AI Advisor Sriram Krishnan

Credited from: THEDAILYBEAST

Far-right figurehead Laura Loomer has issued a public apology to President-elect Donald Trump's AI advisor, Sriram Krishnan, after mistakenly revealing personal information during a heated online debate.

Loomer, known for her provocative statements on X, disclosed his Federal Election Commission records, which inadvertently included details about his donations, including one to Kamala Harris. Following backlash, Loomer formally acknowledged that she may have “accidentally doxxed” Krishnan.

She deleted the incriminating post and emphasized her regrets, stating, “I deeply apologize for accidentally doxxing Sriram. It was an honest mistake, and I take full responsibility.” Loomer reassured her followers that she did not intend to “inflict harm,” arguing that she was merely posting public records.

Krishnan, who relocated to the U.S. in 2007, has recently been a focal point of controversy among MAGA members, inciting disputes surrounding H-1B visas. His support for the program has drawn criticism from conservative factions, particularly in light of Loomer's recent comments.

Loomer, who has previously voiced discontent regarding Krishnan’s role, combined her apology with an assertion of her belief in “more speech” being the solution over censorship, referencing Twitter CEO Elon Musk amidst her statements.

Krishnan’s experience in recent weeks highlights the intersection of racial and cultural tensions within the MAGA movement, with Loomer’s previous insinuations about Krishnan's heritage drawing ire from various quarters. These dynamics have only intensified in the wake of the doxxing incident, demonstrating the polarized environment surrounding immigration and American identity.

In the midst of the dispute, prominent Silicon Valley entrepreneur David Sacks defended Krishnan against the vitriol, clarifying that Krishnan, a U.S. citizen, is merely advising on AI policy and does not alter U.S. immigration strategy.

As Loomer continues to navigate her controversial stance, this situation underscores the ramifications of public discourse gone awry in America's political landscape.
