Ann Coulter has always been a bomb-thrower. She traffics in saying outrageous things and then sits back and watches the fallout. Whether she believes half the stuff she says is anyone's guess. On a recent episode of her "Unsafe" podcast with Scott Adams, she compared long-haul COVID to UFOs and blamed New York liberals for making it up.

I’ve gotten used to my wife not having a sense of small. Buy on occasion it is heightened. I got yelled at today for tossing an unwashed empty sardine can in the trash. Apparently it was an offense odor.
I really do feel sorry for her. But Ann Coulter is right. Long covid is in the same camp as most gluten and peanut allergies.
“You’ll have to click the link for the complete article, but I think this is one of those times when Ann Coulter needs to be silent about something of which she knows nothing about!”
I had what I think was RSV. The residuals (fatigue, etal.) lasted months.
Ann would certainly be acquainted with neurotic women.
Do people remember she was Trump’s biggest supporter in 2016, she even wrote a book about it.
Yes, but also the over-heavy oxygen protocols that blew out lungs and came before the vents. Remember the push for pulse oximeters? People who got persuaded to go in for some oxygen? They often got blasted—and then were moved on to the rest of the deadly protocols.
She has a point. Lot of people milking it.
I am firmly in the school of no such thing as long covid. Now there are people with chronic symptoms. I’ve had them and they can stem from a cold, allergies, and many other things. Calling it “long covid” is a lazy way of saying “we haven’t been able to treat this patient.”
Ann was once a serious person, but that was long long ago. Now she is a sad joke.
Leave Ann with her eating disorder. It’s her secret victim ritual.
I have no idea whether “Long COVID” is real or not. A few years ago, I’d have trusted the medical community to provide a fact-based assessment on whether this was really a physical condition or not, but the medical community did an outstanding job of discrediting itself over plain old COVID - there’s no reason for me to believe anything they say regarding “Long COVID” or “Short COVID” or “Chicken Fried COVID” or any other COVID.
She can never say another word, and the world will be happier. She is the definition of the word “Harpie”.
“afflicts liberal white women with a history of Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.”
Fibromyalgia. LOL!
I had an aunt born with no sense of smell. Can you imagine?
Cool! Now you can go a week between showers and she won’t know!
You keep telling yourself that. Hope no one you care about comes down with it.
I asked my wife if she thought I had long covid. She said that I didn’t have anything that would be called long.
Ann Coulter is just trying to get attention. It’s business as usual for her.
One of those very very rare moments indeed. Like every time she opens her yap these days.
I don’t listen to a word this nasty chick says anymore.
A TREMENDOUS LOT of people got this from Covid-19.
The ACE-2 receptor protein is expressed (i.e., present) in the lung, of course --that is how and why the altered virus was constructed by Chinese and American researchers to make it bind with great avidity to ACE-2 receptors in the lung, thereby making it a much more contagious and potent bioweapon.
Well, it turns out that the ACE-2 receptors are expressed in other tissues in the body, including the brain.

For a better overall source, see this informative, open-access, review of the whole global issue of what COVID-19 virus does to the brain and associated systems. This is in a very well known journal, Annals of Neurology: Koralnik IJ, Tyler KL. COVID-19: A Global Threat to the Nervous System. Ann Neurol. 2020 Jul;88(1):1-11. doi: 10.1002/ana.25807.

Having read many of Ann Coulter's articles in the past (not so much these days) I know she is generally well-enough educated to understand that, indeed, COVID-19 invades the brain and causes myriad symptoms and often permanent disabilities.
She knows better than to say that there is no such thing as Long Covid on a podcast.
The only sensible conclusion is that she is on the take, or a part of the Internationale, i.e., the quasi-organized, massive fraction of the population worldwide who subscribe to communism and Marxism in all of its forms and manifestations: Cloward-Piven, CCP attacks on the US, infiltration of Academe, the Deep State, the Catholic Church, AND of course the disinformation-denial THAT THE COVID-19 virus and vaccine were engineered and deployed bioweapons by the CCP and Chinese Army.
I think the trick going forward is NOT to focus on the motivation of people like Ann Coulter (just as a one-person example) and INSTEAD, just grasp and internalize that it is all a part of the whole communist effort.
The more they chase us normals down blind alleys trying to understand their screwy motivations and schemes, the more we are blinded to the overall collectivist plot.
To remove the hoodwink, or to be 'red-pilled,' then just accept the lie and generalize, and don't get absorbed into their various silly schemes. Lump them all together as communism. It is an important way to neutralize their many psyops.
