Ann Coulter, with a ring toss: Jared Kushner wrote New York …

ANALYSIS/OPINION:

Ann Coulter, conservative columnist, said in a recent interview with the Daily Beast that Jared Kushner, son-in-law to Donald Trump, is the one who penned the anonymously published presidential hatchet job in The New York Times.

Its a bit of a stretch. A bit of a ring toss.

But then again, a few years ago, it would have been considered a bit of a stretch for a paper of The New York Times esteem to publish an op-ed aimed at calming the anti-Trumpers of the country by assuring of a Deep State-like presence within the White House, actively working to counter the presidents agenda in a cowardly, anonymous manner, that is.

The times have changed.

Yet the problem with pieces penned and published by unnamed, supposedly high-placed, senior administration insider sources persist and its a problem that basically goes like this: Nobody really knows.

Nobody really knows what to believe, whom to believe, or whether theres anything worthwhile to believe in the first place.

Heck, the latest whispers are The New York Times editorial board itself penned the op-ed, and attributed it deceitfully to an administration official. So Coulters theory?

Why not.

Add one one more guess to this list of mystery and intrigue.

Because he and Ivanka are going to have to go back to the Upper East Side and go to the Hamptons, Coultersaid to the Daily Beast, when apparently asked why Kushner may have written the op-ed.

She went on: Theyre probably worried that Trump will be removed within the next few years. They had just gone to the McCain funeral and [the op-ed came out] right after Labor Day, so they were probably feeling wistful for the Hamptons. And the only way they can get back in is if they can say, Dont worry, were the ones who stopped the wall.

OK. Its a bit of food for fodder; its a thought.

Then again, Coulters not exactly a Kushner fan anyway.

If Trump realized that Jared Kushner was ruining his presidency and shot him, she wrote in her recent book, Resistance Is Futile! The Hill cited, and then he fired the U.S. attorney investigating the crime, that would be a textbook case of obstruction of justice. But Trump hasnt shot Kushner, and he probably wont since he doesnt even realize that Kushner is wrecking his presidency.

Interesting stuff.

The stuff of media cycling and recycling.

But in the end, Coulter like the rest is just guessing. And all this guessing is just that. It really doesnt get us any closer to knowing the identity of the coward whos rapidly becoming the most famous individual in modern political times.

Ann Coulter Urges Trump to Move Forward With Border Wall …

Author and conservative commentator Ann Coulter said on "Tucker Carlson Tonight" that President Trump can move forward with his proposed border wall without Congress.

Shortly before Trump spoke at a rally in Montana, Coulter said she wishes someone would remind the president of the vast power of the executive branch to act in the interest of national security.

Coulter said the president has the money already in the Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security and could spend it on the wall if decided to do so.

She said the president has the power to act to defend the homeland, arguing Congress did not sign off on U.S. missile strikes in Syria.

Trump said in an exclusive "Fox & Friends" interview that he'd be willing to shut down the government in order to obtain funding for his border wall.

"If it was up to me, I'd shut down government over border security," said Trump in a conversation at his Montana rally Thursday night, conceding that he does not want to take such action before the midterm elections.

Trump predicted there will be more Republican representation after the elections, saying he has commitments from Republican leaders Sen. Mitch McConnell and Rep. Paul Ryan to pass funding for the border wall after the midterms.

Coulter said "of course" Trump can build the border wall on his own, arguing the military can be used to defend the country's borders.

She said the wall may not be possible in a few months if Democrats make significant gains in the midterm elections. Coulter pointed out that many Trump supporters are "disappointed" at the slow pace of the wall construction.

Coulters call to shut down the bureau comes amid President Trumps frequent criticisms of federal law enforcement, which has included assertions of extreme political bias.

Russia continues to say they had nothing to do with Meddling in our Election! Where is theDNCServer, and why didnt Shady James Comey and the now disgracedFBIagents take and closely examine it? Why isnt Hillary/Russia being looked at? So many questions, so much corruption! Trumptweetedlast month.

And in April, hetweeted: What does the Department of Justice andFBIhave to hide? Why arent they giving the strongly requested documents (unredacted) to theHOUSEJUDICIARYCOMMITTEE? Stalling, but for what reason? Not looking good!

Abolish ICE? Ann Coulter Wants To Disband The FBI

9:57 PM 07/18/2018

garth kant | Contributor

Ann Coulter is calling for the abolition of the FBI.

While many on the left have called for the abolition of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the conservative columnist and bestselling author asserted it was the nations top law enforcement agency that is beyond repair.

Its time to disband the FBI. This is not J. Edgar Hoovers FBI, which was so good that liberals are still hysterical over it, Coultersaid Tuesday on Howie Carrs syndicated radio show.

My father was in the bureau for a few years after law school, she noted. You not only had to be a lawyer back then in order to be an FBI agent It wasnt strictly policy but J. Edgar Hoover, and, of course they were all men, generally preferred Catholics and Mormons on the grounds that were incorruptible. They were very, very honest and you could trust them.

And you didnt really have a lot of trouble under Hoover. We were actually having an enemy in Russia then, she added.

Im pretty sure Strzok is a Catholic, supposedly, but theyre not making Catholics like Pat OBrien anymore, Carr said.

He was referring to the affair between FBI counterintelligence agent Peter Strzok and FBI attorney Lisa Page, who are married to other people and who were both on the special counsels Russia investigation.

They were dismissed from the investigation after their anti-Trump texts became public, including ones in which Strzok called the president a disaster, abysmal, and an idiot. He also assured Page before the 2016 election that Trump would never become president, texting, No. No he wont. Well stop it.

Strzok insistedduring testimony before Congress last week, I did not think that bias was expressed in those text messages.

However, after Page met with lawmakers behind closed doors for a second time, Rep. John Ratcliff, R-Texas, told reporterson Monday, In many cases, she admits that the text messages mean exactly what they say, as opposed to Agent Strzok, who thinks that weve all misinterpreted his own words on any text message that might be negative.

During Tuesdays radio interview, Carr asked Coulter if FBI agents shouldnt be discouraged from acts that could expose them to blackmail, Like having an affair with a co-worker?

Oh my gosh, J. Edgar Hoover never would have allowed that. Never, never, never, she replied, then laughed loud and long.

Coulter was promoting her new book which she said is called Resistance is Futile: How The Trump-Hating Left Lost Its Collective Mind, and will be released on Aug. 21.

Ann Coulter: ‘Of Course’ the Left Is ‘Using Children’ to …

In an interview with talk radio host Howie Carr, Coulter said, of course media pundits, the open borders lobby, and Democrats are using President Donald Trumps zero tolerance policy at the border as a way to gain support for their preferred mass immigration and cheap labor economic model.

Coulter said:

Who cares if this started under Trump or Obama. What the Lefts argument is: Trump is a liar, therefore we get to wreck your country. No, no these are fake phony frauds. This is a political movement to bring people in. Of course theyre using children. Of course theyre having children weeping and crying. What are we going to do, take in all of Latin America? And by the way, these are the people who say that America itself, Oh, were a hateful country, were misogynist and the rape culture, and were so racist, racist, racist. Theyre always telling us how racist Americans are. Why would you want to bring people into a country thats such a horrible place? [Emphasis added]

During a White House press briefing on Monday evening, a reporter from the establishment media advocated for a border policy that halted all detention of border crossers until the Republican-controlled Congress closed the legal loophole that prevents child border crossers from being detained with their parents, or the adults accompanying them, until they are deported.

Such a policy would result in an open border and likely a surge of illegal immigration and asylum claims, though, the southern border has already been inundated with asylum requests and illegal immigration.

The policy to prosecute all illegal border crossers, including illegal alien adults who cross the border with children, results in border-crossing parents having their children taken into federal custody. This is a loophole known as theFlores SettlementAgreement.

Child border crossers, asBreitbart News reported, actually have a higher standard of living than the 13 million American children who are living in poverty.
