Ms. Loomer was seated directly across the desk from the president. Seated next to her was Representative Scott Perry, a Pennsylvania congressman who was one of Mr. Trump’s biggest allies in his efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss. Mr. Perry had a separate list of staff concerns he wanted to discuss with the president, and his planned meeting with Mr. Trump collided with Ms. Loomer’s, one of the people briefed on the events said.

Mr. Perry and one of his aides did not immediately respond to text messages seeking comment.

During the roughly 30-minute encounter, those people said, attendees discussed dismissing a number of government workers. Mr. Waltz attended only briefly, so that he could defend his staff, according to one of the people briefed on what took place.
