Yes, Jewel Realizes That Ann Coulter Burn Is No Longer Funny – Huffington Post

The beloved singer-songwriter took part in Comedy Centrals Rob Lowe Roast and showcased her sense of humor, as she not only scalded the actor but fellow participant and conservative commentator Ann Coulter.

While smiling and strumming her guitar, she made a few cracks at Coulter, but one in particular stood out.

Jeff Ross is going to party like its 1999, Ann Coulter is going to vote like its 1899, she said, looking at Coulter and adding, Ann, you do look great though. Youre almost as thin as Donald Trumps chance of winning the election, so thats cool.

Little did she know her joke wouldnt have a shelf life.

When The Huffington Post asked about the burn during a Build Series interview with Jewel on Thursday, the Hands singer said, laughing,She won, they won. yup. Go them.

Jewel said shes always had a dark sense of humor, its just that not everyone knows about it.

"But people have seen me live and know I do a lot of stand-up in my shows. I have a very dark sense of humor. I think to survive the type of life Ive had, you just have to have a sense of humor, Jewel, who left home as a teen and lived out of a car for a year before making it into the music industry, said. So the people who are closest to me know my darkest, darkest skits I have a lot of characters and a lot of skits I do that are completely politically un-correct. But maybe theyll be another future for me and Ill be able to share some of that.

Still, dont think Jewel will save your soul with her one-liners.

Its not like my music at all, she quipped.

Controversial Speaker Ann Coulter to Appear at UC Berkeley Months After Fiery Protest – NBC Bay Area

File image of Ann Coulter.

Conservative commentator Ann Coulter is set to appear at UC Berkeley on April 27, just months after a talk by disgraced Breitbart editor Milo Yiannopoulos was cancelled amid fiery, violent protests.

Berkeley College Republicans, the campus group behind both speaking engagements, confirmed the visit to NBC Bay Area on Tuesday.

The Berkeley College Republicans have invited Ms. Coulter to speak at UC Berkeley because she has been one of the most vocal critics of illegal immigration in all its manifestations and was one of the earliest supporters of President Trump, from when he initially announced his candidacy down to the present day, said Naweed Tahmas, a spokesperson for the campus group.

Berkeley College Republicans is working with Young Americas Foundation, a conservative organization that regularly sponsors university appearances, to iron out the details, including a contract and scheduled appearance time. The group also plans to work with campus police to arrange security measures, Tahmas said.

University officials did not immediately return a request for comment.

Young Americas Foundation tweeted out its own unique confirmation of the Coulter event earlier on Tuesday, warning snowflakes a term used by the so-called alt-right, a populist fringe group made up of white nationalists, to describe liberals of the impending lecture.

Coulters visit will likely be seen as a test for UC Berkeley, historically known as the home of the free speech movement, which came under intense scrutiny in February after anti-Yiannopolous protesters smashed windows, started fistfights and set a lamppost ablaze with little interference from law enforcement.

The downtown riot made national news and prompted a response from President Donald Trump, who floated the idea of cutting federal funds from the university.

Coulter, who rose to fame in the 1990s as a political pundit on "Real Time With Bill Maher," is known for roiling those on the left with her inflammatory comments, particularly those about immigrants, people of color, the LGBTQ community and feminists.

Her most recent book, "In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome!" is a New York Times-bestseller that effectively serves as an ode to Trump and a screed against the mainstream political establishment and minority groups.

In the same way any immigrant to Finland makes it less white, any immigrant to America makes it less honest, she opines in the book. In the past, she has also advocated for bringing back literacy tests for voting, called public schools "babysitting" programs for "hoodlums, and said that scaling back womens rights is a "personal fantasy."

UC Berkeley spokesman Dan Mogulof said that the Berkeley College Republicans retain the right to invite to campus whomever they deem fit.

However, he said, the university's "administration wishes to make clear that an invitation of this sort in no way suggests our endorsement of a particular point of view, and we will continue to affirm our commitment to the values of diversity, equality, and tolerance that underlie the greatness of Berkeley and, indeed, of our nation."

Coulter is scheduled to speak in Modesto the day after the Berkeley engagement, courtesy of the Stanislaus GOP. Protest plans for that event have already spread on social media.

Ann Coulter: ‘Give Us The Free Market’ For Health Care – CBS Philly

March 28, 2017 4:35 PM By Rich Zeoli

Philadelphia (CBS) Following the failure last week of a Republicanbill that would have repealed and replaced the Affordable Care Act, conservative author and columnist Ann Coulter called on Congress to allow the free market to regulate the health care industry during an interview with Rich Zeoli on Talk Radio 1210 WPHT.

We buy all of our other products on the free market. Why cant I buy health insurance on the free market? Well, the answer is because this particular welfare program, Obamacare, in some cases [is] welfare, is paid by through our insurance premiums, as opposed to most welfare programs. Whether youre poor or, in the case of health, youre just unlucky or you have kid or you, yourself, have some very expensive medical problem, OK, you cant buy insurance on the free market. Thats a welfare case. I say that with no animosity, Coulter said. At least with some of themThose are separate cases, the pre-existing conditions ones. But why do the rest of us have to pay for all of that through insurance premiums? Which ends up meaning our premiums are through the roof, the deductibles are through the roof, we cant go see doctors we want.

Coulter said politicians could do more to allow for competition if they really wanted to.

Give us the free market. Its very simple, just one sentence saying there shall be a free market in health insurance, which Congress, of course, has full constitutional authority to do, Coulter said. The Constitution says you regulate interstate commerce. Just let us have a free marketthats really all you need. Keep the rest of Obamacare, so that no one protests.

She pins most of the blame for the GOP plan never even reaching a floor vote on House Speaker Paul Ryanand suggested that President Donald Trump turn his attention to the issues she thinks secured his election.

I think Trump was just being nice to Ryan. I know Im a little starry-eyed but I am holding the Emperor-God Trump harmless on this. Every president only has a few big issues that he can push through, she said. The reason Trump won this astonishing victory, despite never being in politics before and not really being, until now, anybodys idea of a president was because of immigration, trade, jobs, putting Americans first. He should be building the wall.

Ann Coulter: 'Give Us The Free Market' For Health Care - CBS Philly

ANN COULTER: We have now hit fulll-on crazy – St. Augustine Record

AD FEEDBACK

Liberals are ecstatic that a judge in Hawaii is writing immigration policy for the entire country, and that policy is: We have no right to tell anyone that he cant live in America. (Unless theyre Christians those guys we can keep out.)

As subtly alluded to in the subtitle of Adios, America: The Lefts Plan to Turn Our Country into a Third World Hellhole, the goal of liberals is for the poor of the world to have a constitutional right to come here whenever they want.

I cant help but notice that the Third Worlders arent moving to liberals neighborhoods.

After nearly 1 million Rwandans were murdered by other Rwandans in 1994, our government asked itself: Why not bring more of this fascinating Rwandan culture to America? Ten thousand of them poured in. So far, nearly 400 have been convicted in the United States of lying on visa applications about their role in the genocide.

And thats why we have to tighten our belt, America! Massive international investigations dont come cheap.

Almost every immigration case is a con, something we find out every time theres a San Bernardino shooting and half the family turns out to have scammed our immigration officials. One hundred percent of the humanitarian cases are frauds.

Earlier this month, Rwandas Gervais Ngombwa was convicted for lying on his immigration application by claiming to have been a victim of the 1994 genocide. In fact, he was a well-known perpetrator even featured in Rwandan newspaper articles as a leader of the genocide.

AD FEEDBACK

For most of the last two decades, Ngombwa has been living in Iowa with his wife and eight children in a house built by Habitat for Humanity because no Americans need houses. He came to the authorities attention a couple years ago by setting that house on fire after a domestic dispute, then filing a fraudulent $75,000 insurance claim.

Another Rwandan genocidalist living in America was featured in Adios, America: Beatrice Munyenyezi, granted refugee status as an alleged victim of the genocide, even though she, too, had helped orchestrate it.

Munyenyezi was living safely in Kenya when she applied for a refugee visa to America. The welfare is way better here. And, luckily for us, she had a chronic medical condition that required constant attention from a New Hampshire hospital.

Hesham Mohamed Hadayet arrived in the U.S. on a tourist visa, then immediately applied for asylum on the grounds that he was persecuted in Egypt for being a member of an Islamic terrorist group.

Being a member of a noted terrorist group cannot be used to block you from coming to America, thanks to Barney Franks 1989 amendment to the Immigration and Naturalization Act, because liberals love this country so very, very much. Being a talented neurosurgeon from Switzerland, however, is disqualifying.

Hadayets refugee application wasnt denied until hed already been living here for three years. When he was called in for a visa overstay hearing, he didnt show up, and the INS didnt bother looking for him. After allowing Hadayet to mill about America for another year, our government granted him permanent residency and a work permit.

On the Fourth of July following the 9/11 attack, Hadayet shot up the El Al ticket counter at the Los Angeles International Airport. I guess the Egyptians were right!

As bodies were being cleared away from the ticket counter, including Hadayets, his wife blamed America for the attack, denying her husband had anything to do with it. He is a victim of injustice, she explained. In America, they hate Islam and Arabs after Sept. 11.

At least immigrants are grateful.

Immigration bureaucrats are so determined to transform America without anyone seeing what theyre doing that the INS initially refused to release Hadayets file to congressional investigators, in order to protect his privacy.

Of course, anybody could miss Egypts designating someone a terrorist. And maybe the INSs test for Rwandan refugees is: Would this person be able to convince Rolling Stone magazine that Haven Monahan raped her?

How about Rasmea Yousef Odeh? She waltzed into America after having been convicted and imprisoned in Israel for a supermarket bombing that left two Hebrew University students dead, and also for the attempted bombing of the British consulate in Israel.

She was released in a prisoner exchange whereupon Odeh made a beeline for the U.S.

True, Odeh wasnt subjected to the Inquisition-like vetting accorded the humanitarian cases, like the Boston Marathon bombers (we were warned by Russia), Hadayet (we were warned by Egypt) or the Blind Sheik (same).

But how did our immigration authorities miss a CONVICTION FOR BOMBING IN ISRAEL?

Apart from the terrorism, welfare and fraud, what great things did any of them do for our country?

Ngombwa was a custodian at the Cedar Rapids Community School District in Iowa, a job that, evidently, no American would do. Munyenyezi had a job as an advocate for refugees just one of the many jobs being created by immigrants. Hadayet ran a failing limousine company and was $10,000 in debt. Odeh was an unemployed waitress and a Palestinian grievance activist. Recently, shes been heavily involved in anti-Trump, anti-white male protests, because who doesnt like incessant Third World unrest?

In 1960, 75 percent of the foreign-born in America were from Europe. Today only about 10 percent are. More than a third of all postTeddy Kennedy act immigrants not just the wretched humanitarian cases dont even have a high school diploma.

What is the affirmative case for this? How is it making America better? Improving the schools? The job market? Crime? The likelihood of terrorism?

Can the liberals doing cartwheels over a district judges announcement that everyone in the world has a right to come here (except Europeans and Christians), give us the cost-benefit analysis theyre using? Twenty million Third World immigrants give us ( __ ) terrorists, ( __ ) welfare recipients, ( __ ) uncompensated medical costs, ( __ ) discrimination lawsuits, but its all worth it because (
