Investigative journalist Laura Loomer disputes DOJ claims on Camp LeJeune settlements, calling payout figures misleading.
Key numbers: Only 3,300 victims out of nearly 400,000 claims filed have received payouts since January 2025—less than 1% resolved in nearly 2 years. Over 1 million total victims exist.
Loomer's calculation: At current pace, full resolution would take 200 years. She accuses Associate AG Stanley Woodward of running disinformation and the DOJ of deliberately running out the clock until victims die.
Backlash: AG Todd Blanche publicly attacked Loomer yesterday after she raised these concerns. She says Trump administration officials thanked her for information they didn't previously have, and claims she has documentation proving her case.
Loomer alleges DOJ is paying influencers to counter her reporting and defend Woodward's track record.
