On Monday, at the behest of President Donald Trump, the Justice Department threatened to take federal funds away from cities choosing not to enforce federal immigration laws, prompting many sanctuary city mayors to publicly attack the White Houses policy.

If they actually act to take away our money, well see them in court, said New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, according to a report by Fox News.

We will fight to protect the safety and dignity of all Angelenos, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti said. We will work closely with our representatives in Congress to make sure that Los Angeles does not go without federal resources that help protect millions of people every day.

On Saturday, conservative commentator Ann Coulter appeared on Fox News Channels Watters World to discuss the mayors defiance, and in classic Coulter style, she made plain the liberal mayors hypocritical position.

Do you think more needs to be done? Watters asked Coulter.

A lot more federal funds could be withheld, Coulter said. Congress may need to pass a law to allow other federal funds to be withheld. There are certain categories of them that the attorney general is able to withhold, but, I mean the IRS used tax policy to dictate the dating policies at Bob Jones University. Oh no, the federal government can have a very big impact on not only private schools, but on cities and towns.

Remember, it was Liddy Dole who changed the national speed limit to 55 mph, by threatening to give them highway funds, Coulter continued. But the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution says federal laws are supreme over state law. Its treated like a ratchet. So, if its a federal law liberals likelike, we shall have one national abortion law, abortion will be legalthat must be enforced.

Coulter says immigration laws necessarily fall under the authority of the federal government.

But when it comes to things that are, by definition, laws that the federal government ought to be dealing withimmigration, I mean you cant contain immigration to a single city or a single state. They can walk around, said Coulter. They can go from one town to the next to kill people. Of course, immigration is a federal responsibility.

Watters and Coulter also discussed the hypocrisy of liberals views on gun rights and tax laws, among other policy areas. If a city or state wanted to disregard certain federal laws pertaining to guns, abortion, or taxes, Watters and Coulter argued, liberals would never allow it.

Congress has yet to announce whether it will help Trump pull funding from sanctuary cities, and it remains unclear exactly how much funding can be taken away from sanctuary cities by the federal government.

BERKELEY Conservative commentator Ann Coulter, author of In Trump We Trust and other political-themed books, has accepted an invitation to speak at UC Berkeley on April 27, according to the sponsor of the event.

The time and location have not been finalized, said Troy Worden, spokesman for the Berkeley College Republicans. Once those details are finalized, the event will be posted on Eventbrite, he said. Coulter will speak on the topic of illegal immigration, he added.

University spokesman Dan Mogulof said student groups have the right to invite speakers of their choosing to campus.

In that context, the 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, Mogulof said in an email.The university is committed to freedom of expression: we cannot and will not engage in prior restraint of speech based on generalized concern that a speakers message may trigger disruptions.

The BCR, as a matter of standard practice, will need to ask for a security assessment from the campus police department, Mogulof added. If security is required, the group would have to pay only for very basicsecurity arrangements based on neutral criteria such as time, place, location, size of venue, and number of attendees.

The campus, as per the law, cannot and does not, require student groups to pay for any security arrangements UCPD believes to be necessary as a result of the speakers perspectives or the possibility of protest or disruption, Mogulof said. Those security costs are borne solely and exclusively by the campus.

Coulter is the author of about a dozen books including Slander: Liberal Lies About the American Right, If Democrats Had Any Brains, Theyd Be Republicans, Godless: The Church of Liberalism, Adios, America: The Lefts Plan to Turn Our Country into a Third World Hellhole, and most recently, In Trump We Trust: E Pluribus Awesome!

Right-wing star Ann Coulter to speak at UC Berkeley - East Bay Times

Controversial conservative commentator Ann Coulter is scheduled to speak at the University of California, Berkeley in April, less than three months after an appearance by Milo Yiannopoulos sparked violent protests.

Young America's Foundation announced this weekthat the 11-time New York Times bestselling author is slated to give a talk on campus on April 27.

Coulter has often made headlines - and enemies - with her outspoken views on illegal immigration, memorably saying "Americans want less immigration,"we must stop illegal aliens who "rip off government programs," and "how many immigrants are enough?"

Some school organizers say they are concerned that Coulter's visit could result in protests and violence.

On February 1, Yiannopolous, then a Breitbart News editor, was forced to cancel an appearance at the school after violent protesters broke windows, damaged property and started fires.

We are pretty apprehensive right now about everything, said Pranav Jandahyala, president of the nonpartisan student political organization BridgeCal. But at the same time, whats pushing us forward is our optimism. We truly believe we can put on a great event.

This time, the College Republicans are working with BridgeCal, which says its hoping the university has a stronger security plan.

This time we are definitely going to push them to provide more security than they did last time, said Jandahlyala. More officers on the ground instead of in the balcony.

In a statement provided to the Washington Examiner, Coulter outlined her expectations for the event, quipping, "I hear they're nice people at Berkeley and expect a pleasant event and stimulating exchange of ideas."

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.
