Ann Coulter, Laura Ingraham warn Trump will be impeached …

President Donald Trump signed a $1.3 trillion spending bill at the White House on Friday, and members of the far-right of the presidents party are not happy.

The legislation avoids a government shutdown and keeps the government running until September, but deficit hawks attacked the president for signing one of the largest increases in federal spending in years. Conservatives also attacked the president for signing a bill that failed to fully fund a wall on the southern border.

Trump had tweeted earlier in the day that he was considering vetoing the bill over its lack of funding for the border wall, and its failure to offer a solution for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, also known as DACA. At the signing ceremony, Trump said he thought about vetoing the bill, but ultimately deemed the legislationnecessary to create by far the strongest military weve ever had.

Many conservatives on Twitter said passage of the bill was a win for Democrats. Conservative provocateur Ann Coulter mocked the signings by tweeting "Congratulations, President Schumer," in reference to Democratic Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.

Fox News host and Trump supporter Laura Ingraham, meanwhile, claimed that by signing the bill, the president had furthered his chances of being impeached if Democrats win back control of the House in the 2018 midterms.

The final version of the 2,000-page bill wasnt unveiled until Wednesday, giving Congress just a few hours to read the legislation before voting on it. The short time frame prompted Trump to declare that he would never sign another bill like this again.

Nobody read it. Its only hours old, Trump said.

Ann Coulter in Boulder: Police scout California event for …

The University of Colorado and Boulder police departments sent employees to an Ann Coulter event in California last weekend to help prepare the university for the controversial commentators appearance later this week.

Coulter is scheduled to appear at 7 p.m. Wednesday in Chem 140, at a speaking event hosted by conservative group Turning Point USA.

In preparation, CU spokesman Ryan Huff said the university sent two employees to Mountain View, Calif., where Coulter spoke at a private event. Boulder police spokeswoman Shannon Aulabaugh said Boulder police also sent one person.

Huff said the employees were able to watch a a well-attended event that occurred without disruption.

On occasion, we send staff to high-profile or controversial events before they make their stops at CU Boulder, Huff added.

That was the case ahead of the Dalai Lamas 2016 visit and our hosting of the 2015 Republican presidential debate. Theres no better preparation for hosting a new event than going to another location to see how that host agency manages it. That gives us a sense of what to expect from an operational standpoint and how to best provide hospitality to our attendees.

Political commentator and author Ann Coulter is set to speak Tuesday night at a private event in Mountain View, her first Bay Area appearance since a dust-up last spring over a planned speaking engagement at UC-Berkeley that never occurred.

Coulters appearance, hosted by The Liberty Forum of Silicon Valley, is being called In Trump We Trust. According to the Liberty Forums website, the talk will be areview of the most monumental, paradigm-shattering, vilified presidency in history; whats been accomplished, whats left on the table and what Americans can do to ensure the moment is not wasted.

Mountain View police are planning to assign about two dozen police officers to provide traffic assistance and safety assistance for the event, according to police spokeswoman Katie Nelson.So far, police do not know of any scheduled protests but will designate an area outside for anyone wishing to exercise their rights to free speech.

Last April, Coulter accepted an invitation by campus Republicans to speak at UC Berkeley, then was uninvited by the school because university officials said they could not guarantee the safety of the conservative pundit or anyone else in attendance. UC approved a Coulter speaking engagement for a later day, which never happened.

Coulter told the New York Times the decision to cancel her Berkeley appearance was a sad day for free speech.

The Liberty Forum event at 7 p.m., being held atthe IFES Portuguese Hall at 432 Stierlin Road, is sold out. About 600 people are expected to attend.

On its website, The Liberty Forum of Silicon Valley bills itself as the recognized conservative non-partisan umbrella organization in the Bay Area, we are the place for conservatives from Silicon Valley and beyond to gather, share ideas and become empowered.

CU Board of Regents have recently undertaken a crusade for free speech on college campuses, with some regents worrying conservatives dont feel comfortable expressing themselves at the university, according to reporting by the Daily Camera.

While controversial speakers like Milo Yiannopoulos have spoken on the Boulder campus without incident, some regents pointed to a recent Pew research study about conservatives declining support for higher education as proof that CU must do better to make its conservative students feel welcome.

Ann Coulter compares The Sacramento Bee to Hitlers Mein …

Conservative media personality Ann Coulter weighed in on Sacramento schools and media coverage with four consecutive tweets to her 1.9 million followers this weekend.

Coulter appeared unhappy with both The Sacramento Bees coverage of a McClatchy High School science fair project and the projects removal over allegations of racism. The student attempted to justify a lack of racial diversity in McClatchy Highs elite HISP program by proving blacks, Southeast Asians and Hispanics have lower average IQs than whites and Northeast Asians.

The students project remained up for two days before being taken down at the request of students, parents and staff. As a response to The Bees story, Sacramento City Unified Superintendent Jorge Aguilar released a video Saturday night promising to diversify the citys elite academic programs.

In a series of tweets Sunday, Coulter shared a link to the article, accused The Bee of being anti-science, identified what she believed to be the giveaway sentence and compared the newspaper to Adolf Hitlers 1925 autobiography Mein Kampf.

When contacted via email Wednesday, Coulter said correlating eugenics with human biodiversity a name often used in alt-right circles to make race-based pseudoscience appear more palatable was as ridiculous as equating The Bee with Adolf Hitlers autobiography. She did not respond to a follow-up email questioning why the Bee was anti-science.

Coulter began her career as an attorney before becoming a frequent guest on conservative talk shows in the late 1990s. She has written 12 books with titles such as Demonic: How the Liberal Mob is Endangering America and Adios, America: The Lefts Plan to Turn Our Country Into a Third World Hellhole.

She previously referred to Barack Obamas autobiography Dreams from My Father as a dimestore Mein Kampf. In Comedy Centrals 2016 roast of Rob Lowe, comedienne Nikki Glaser said Coulter has written 11 books 12 if you count Mein Kampf.
