In a bombshell revelation shaking conservative media, Laura Ingraham — one of Fox News’ most vocal pro-Trump personalities — has been publicly denounced by her own brother, Curtis Ingraham. In a deeply personal and chilling interview, Curtis painted a disturbing portrait of their family history and linked it directly to what he calls Laura’s “cruelty,” “hypocrisy,” and “spin machine” role in American media.

Curtis didn’t hold back. He described their father as a “Nazi sympathizer” who kept a copy of Mein Kampf on the family bookshelf, and who was also an abusive alcoholic. “We were raised in a family of anger,” he said, framing this as the emotional soil from which Laura’s current behavior took root. He claimed their upbringing was toxic — and that while he chose love, she chose power, cruelty, and authoritarianism.

This familial bombshell is now being viewed in an entirely new light as Laura continues to downplay major scandals like January 6 and the recent “Signalgate” debacle — in which Trump’s defense officials allegedly shared classified war plans via group text, accidentally including The Atlantic’s editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg. Laura dismissed the incident as just another liberal smear campaign. But as her brother suggests, that pattern of minimizing serious threats to democracy is no accident — it’s part of a long-standing strategy fueled by personal trauma and rewarded by her media platform.

Digging deeper, Curtis exposed even more disturbing history. He recounted a blog post that claimed Laura, during her time at Dartmouth, published names of attendees at a campus gay alliance meeting in a conservative student paper. According to the blog, one of those students later took his own life. While this detail remains unverified, Curtis confronted Laura about it — and received a cold, legalistic non-response, which he says was a “confirmation of guilt in his heart.”

That, he said, was the beginning of the end for their relationship. Once close siblings who spoke daily, their bond fractured permanently when Laura publicly opposed gay marriage — despite Curtis having cared for his partner through terminal illness. From that moment on, Curtis says, he saw her for who she really was: a person who “listens only to attack, not to understand.”

Curtis also blasted Laura’s hypocrisy: while she pushes anti-immigration rhetoric on-air, she has adopted three immigrant children. While peddling anti-vaccine conspiracies, she was herself vaccinated early through insider media access. “She knows the truth,” he said, “but chooses lies because they sell.”

All of this, he argues, makes her the perfect mouthpiece for what he calls the “state regime media” under Trump. Laura isn’t just a talking head — she’s a polished spin artist who knows exactly how to stoke division, rage, and authoritarian sympathies.

And it doesn’t stop there. Curtis highlighted Laura’s infamous “shut up and dribble” remark to LeBron James as a prime example of her tendency to punch down and vilify. To him, this isn’t political commentary — it’s personal pathology. “She’s being rewarded for the anger and destruction we learned in our childhood,” he said, comparing her to Trump in mindset, cruelty, and emotional dysfunction.

Signalgate itself — the chaotic situation where Jeffrey Goldberg was mysteriously added to a group text of Trump officials sharing war strategies — was spun by Laura as liberal sabotage. But Curtis believes even her choice to deflect blame onto Elon Musk to “solve” the scandal reflects a deeper strategy of manipulating truth to fit a narrative.

In the end, what emerges isn’t just a critique of Laura Ingraham as a media figure — it’s an unmasking. Through her brother’s words, Laura is revealed as someone shaped by darkness and fueled by grievance, who has made a lucrative career out of pushing an authoritarian agenda that mirrors the very abuse she once suffered.

This exposé from Midas Touch adds fuel to the fire already surrounding Fox News and its role in shaping far-right American discourse. And it raises the question: How many other media figures are just as broken, just as dangerous — and just as skilled at hiding it?
