Conservative activist Laura Loomer is sparring on social media with the brother of President Trump's new nominee to serve as U.S. surgeon general.

Loomer, who is known to speak with Trump and was seen as a player in the administration's decision to dismiss several national security staff members, railed against Casey Means’s qualifications to serve as surgeon general after Trump pulled his original pick and nominated her to the position.

On Friday, she and Calley Means, Casey Means's brother, continued their battle on social platform X. Calley Means serves as a special government employee of the Department of Health and Human Services led by Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Both of the Means siblings are allies of Kennedy.
