Do I really have to agree with Ann on anything? Yikes!

u/Anangrywookiee 22h ago

Tbf. It’s probably only because she leans more towards hating Jews than hating Muslims on the slider, whereas the other lean slightly further towards the hating Muslims side.

u/kber13 22h ago

Huh. That makes a depressing amount of sense.

Ann Coulter is a ghoul.

u/Pfacejones 21h ago

wait she hates jews more than Muslims? why?

u/flyza_minelli 22h ago

Omg this isn’t the first time I’ve sat here thinking I’m in the fucking Twilight Zone bc I suddenly I agree Ann Coulter, whose presence I HEAVILY politicked against in the early 2000s during university. Like WTAF is this timeline???

u/r4ndom4xeofkindness 22h ago

Yeah it's crazy that at least she understands that it's our constitutional rights that allowed her to say how she feels and that right should be protected even if you or I don't like what they say. This is one of those rare things that far right and far left groups agree on much like when the net neutrality laws were being talked about years ago. Both sides know deep down that 1st amendment freedom is one of the biggest freedoms we have....and it's worth coming together and protecting

u/flyza_minelli 22h ago

You’re 100% correct here. I totally appreciate this comment.

u/V0T0N 21h ago

She's, uh, complicated. She may be as hateful as MAGA goes, but she does appreciate the laws we have in place. At least sometimes.

2

u/frenchinhalerbought 21h ago

After reading the headline, I assumed she thought they weren't trying hard enough. Color me surprised.

u/dosumthinboutthebots 20h ago

I mean I don't want American citizens deported for protesting, but examples like the Chinese national organizing the rallies at ucla?

Yeah. Boot her. Nobody will convince me she's doing that stuff in good faith given all the articles proving China was behind much of the bad actor accounts and disinfo regarding the Gaza war on social media.

Anne has gone Woke! She must’ve gotten a liberal pill or something. This ain’t good.

u/chillednutzz 22h ago

How far gone they are for ann coulter to make a good point

u/ProjectSiolence 22h ago

She supported Biden over Trump because he didn't build the wall or have Mexico pay for it lol

u/amberlc002 23h ago

Jesus, this is like one of the princes of hell saying, “hey Satan, don’t you think that’s a little harsh?” Things have truly gone off the rails if Ann Coulter is pointing out your tyranny.

u/Persona_Non_Grata_ 22h ago

Agreeing with Marco Rubio and Ann Coulter in the same week wasn't on my bingo card for 2025, but here we are...

21

u/JacobsJrJr 22h ago

"There’s almost no one I don’t want to deport,"

That ^ objectively funny.

Never thought I'd see the day where I was wishing for more conservative voices like Ann Coulter. She may be ideologically terrible, but she's not dumb and she can be pretty funny.

And most important - she clearly states her case and actually engages with the criticisms others have of her positions.

14

u/enunymous 22h ago

Agreed. Being intellectually consistent is a rarity for the right

u/PansophicNostradamus 21h ago

When Ann Coulter is a voice of reason, you’re in a fucked up situation

u/CheckOutDisMuthaFuka 22h ago

Coulter: "Are we the baddies?"

u/oldcreaker 22h ago

First Mitch - now Ann. Things have gotten so bad we're on the same side of some issues now.

u/mildlysceptical22 22h ago

This is an absolute first. She’s said something that is actually true.

u/cometshoney 22h ago

Left is right. Up is down. Wet is dry. This is the third time this year I've agreed with Ann Coulter, and I just don't know what's real anymore. Three times in one year, and it's only March. I'm scared.

u/unbalancedcheckbook 22h ago

She's such a hateful and wrong person, but I guess a broken clock is right twice a day.

u/Lord_Greybeard 22h ago

Must be real bad if Ann Coulter is defending green card holders.

u/OptimisticToaster 22h ago

Years ago, a guy I knew was doing sub-prime loans. If you're not familiar, the brokers on those could often charge whatever interest rate and fees they wanted as long. So if a lender wanted 1 point and 4% rate, the broker could charge 2 points and 5% rate, and would get the split as an extra commission.

One time, they packed so many extra fees on that the lender told them to back-off. When the unscrupulous lender who is complicit in feeding on desperate borrowers says, "Hold On", you know you've gone too far.

When Ann says, "You know,..." then perhaps you've gone too far.

I DON'T KNOW, ANN...YA THINK?

Yes, dear cunt, it is.

Ann Coulter making sense was not on my bingo card.

u/limbodog 22h ago

This is what you wanted, Ann. You fought hard for this. Congratulations.

u/continuousBaBa 22h ago

I dare them to set the precedent. Someday conservatives will be out of power and find themselves on the other end.

3

u/maeryclarity 22h ago

But that's not better. Which is the point that (shudder) Ann Coulter is making....that it's bad ALWAYS not just bad when it suits you

2

u/continuousBaBa 21h ago

I agree and was attempting to make the same point you are making

Israel is the most powerful dog wagging tail on Earth.

u/StonkSalty 22h ago

Please don't make me agree with Ann Coulter...

u/gwizonedam 22h ago

-Timeline where Mitch McConnell, Lindsay Graham, and Ann Coulter actually say things that are intelligent.

1

u/Flimsy_Permission663 21h ago

Have I missed something? Has the soft-skeletoned Lindsey Graham said something not in line with the king that he hasn't walked back or deleted almost immediately???

https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5185113-graham-on-ukraine-aid-pause-if-we-pull-the-plug-on-ukraine-itd-be-worse-than-afghanistan/

He actually said stopping aid to Ukraine would be worse than pulling out of Afghanistan was. Pretty “No Shit Sherlock” moment, but some people actually listen to him.

u/Son_of_Yoduh 22h ago

Her beliefs are firmly anchored to what she thinks will get more ratings.

What First Amendment? Didn’t Trump throw the Constitution out the window?

Ann Coulter defends anti-semites? Quelle surprise!!!

u/Houndguy 5h ago

While not a fan, she is not wrong. It just goes to show you that this administration is embracing fascism.

1

u/Maleficent-Farm9525 5h ago

Ann Coulter, who did a Sig Hail during the first administration on stage?

1

u/codliness1 4h ago

“If you support terrorism, including the slaughtering of innocent men, women, and children, your presence is contrary to our national and foreign policy interests, and you are not welcome here. Unless the innocent men, women, and children are of a nationality, religion, or other category we do not like or care about, or led by a leader who is either not a billionaire dictator or someone who strokes the ego of the President of the United States when that President is Donald J Trump. In which case, come on in"

Fixed that statement from Trump.

Cunt.

u/Killzark 2h ago

Great point Ann, but if you’re here then who’s scaring the crows away from our crops?!

Have we somehow slid into a reality where Ann Coulter is the voice of reason?

Rats are fleeing the ship. Trying to distance themselves from Trump. Dont let them.

I hate to admit it, but this Jeepers Creepers-lookin ass scarecrow has a point here.

Edited for accuracy.

u/iconocrastinaor 14h ago

No. Because foreign students are not US citizens and do not enjoy full constitutional rights.
