Guest Post by Ann Coulter
Last week, we discussed Rebekah Jones, the crazy lady who wrote a 342-page telenovela about her ex-lover, Garrett Sweeterman, then went on to fame and fortune by claiming Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis was faking his state’s spectacularly low COVID numbers.
Before the media turned Jones into their next Erin Brockovich, they might have done 10 seconds of Googling to find out that Jones’ past includes stalking, battery on a police officer, repeated incarcerations, an institutionalization, an ankle monitor, a restraining order and court-ordered medication. And that’s long before the DeSantis administration hired her as a web designer.
These infractions are contained not only in police reports and court filings, but in her prolix manifesto about her ex-lover that she herself posted all over the internet.
Jones seems to think it’s a point in her favor that during Florida State University’s investigation of her obsessive behavior toward her former student, “Garrett didn’t even bother bringing any evidence — no copies of texts or calls … I brought more than 200 pages worth.”
That sounds normal.
Even after multiple demands that she stay away from Sweeterman, the still-married Jones writes:
Did you know that I would have given anything, truly anything to make things right between us?
Did it matter to you at all that I loved you?
Did it, Garrett?
If the genders were reversed, Jones’ obsession with a former student would be a movie on “Lifetime: TV for Women.”
Instead, she attacked DeSantis and became Forbes magazine’s “Technology Person of the Year,” Fortune magazine’s “40-Under-40” in health care, and cable news’s go-to source for dirt on the DeSantis administration.
No TV personality lavished more attention on Jones than MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell, featuring her on his show on Dec. 8, Dec. 9, Dec. 16 and Dec. 22, 2020. As is common at MSNBC, O’Donnell jumped on the horse and rode off into the sunset without a map, directions or a compass.
In the first of his blockbuster reports, O’Donnell used a law enforcement raid on Jones’ home for one of his anti-police screeds, informing viewers that they were about to see a video of “outrageous conduct by American police officers” — and I have this hot MILF on my show to talk about it. If she wants, I’ll take her on my sailboat.
The MSNBC host scoffed at the basis for the raid, saying: “They were going after the person who sent what they considered, I suppose, some criminally dangerous text.” Ho ho ho. Jones — or at least her lawyer — knows damn well that the charge is serious, which is why, to this day, she stoutly denies sending the text.
According to the search warrant affidavit, six months after Jones was fired by the Florida Department of Health, she hacked into the state’s medical emergency notification system from her home computer, obtained the private information of thousands of people, and sent out a mass text, pleading: “it’s time to speak up before another 17,000 people are dead. You know this is wrong,” and so on. She signed the deranged missive as if it were an official communique from Florida Department of Health.
Comcast determined that the text came from Jones’ Tallahassee home. Perhaps in addition to cuckolding him, she plans to pin the hacking felony on her husband. (Then she could run off with Garrett!)
On the day of the raid, as infinitely patient law enforcement officers banged on Jones’ front door for 22 minutes, she was inside, setting up a video camera. Donations to her GoFundMe page must have been flagging.
O’Donnell introduced her video, saying: “What you’re about to see is almost as bad as American policing gets.”
What we see is Jones (finally) opening the door and exiting the house. An officer enters, unholsters his gun, and calls out for anyone else in the house to come downstairs. In other words, standard operating procedure for executing a search warrant.
Although no one is pointing a gun at anyone, Jones can be heard in the background screaming, “He just pointed a gun at my children!”
This is classic hysterical woman behavior.
YOU’RE HURTING ME! STOP HITTING ME!
I’m not touching you. I’m 7 feet away.
But O’Donnell and the rest of the media repeatedly played Jones’ video while informing viewers that it showed something it plainly did not: officers “pointing” guns at Jones and her children.
“The only thing that could have made this worse,” O’Donnell said, “is if one of those recklessly aimed guns killed someone in that house. If one of those guns aimed at Rebekah Jones’ children fired.”
O’Donnell on the Zapruder film: As you can see in frame 187, President Kennedy is firing at Lee Harvey Oswald from the convertible.
Jones is like the white woman captured on video in Central Park, calling 911 on a black male birdwatcher. As he calmly speaks to her from 20 yards away, she shrieks to the dispatcher, “An African American man… [is] threatening myself and my dog.”
O’Donnell voiceover: The only thing that could have made this worse is if the birdwatcher had killed the woman.
My voiceover for the entire American media: As you can see, they are liars.

Serious question- Can someone explain the appeal of Anne Coulter to me? I’ve tried numerous times to understand why people enjoy her commentary but I just don’t get it.
She has the prettiest Adam’s apple of all time.
I don’t get it either.
Anne’s personality comes off as soon-to-be ex-wife permanently going through a divorce. She makes valid points from time to time and she’s self righteous; but at the end of the day someone still knocked up the nanny while on family vacation so her conviction really doesn’t matter in the bigger picture.
While I’m not a fan, she comes across as having an opinion that some people must identify with. She leans right and that’s enough for some people. I had CNBC on my DISH programming and tried watching it but couldn’t stand the programming, the news people, or the slant of that news channel. It was a hate fest.
CNBC lost me in 2015 when they all lied about the drop in the stock market. They have no idea of the subjects they opine on, none. During the presidential debate, the morning lady came across badly, even her buddies in the MSM had to admit they blew it.
The only guest I will listen to is Stan Drunkenmiller, he at least tries to forecast based on available facts. He’s a lib, but a really rich one
This particular column was kind of boring, but not understanding Coulter’s appeal? She’s viciously sarcastic and usually cuts right through the bullshit – like how a white man who commits a crime is called a “white man”in the media, but any other kind of man is just called “man” . She’s done entire columns on such media obfuscation. Who else would write a column with citations about how immigrants are more likely than Americans to commit child rape?
She’s not afraid to point out people’s faults (like how being obese probably isn’t a great way to head into a respiratory pandemic), and she hasn’t the slightest worry about being called racist or sexist or homophobic or trans-phobic or whatever-else-phobic. She’ll happily go on any TV show (most are afraid to have her these days) where she’s surrounded by imbeciles who call her a NAZI and smile peacefully at them. She unabashedly cites the “14 words”: “We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children” – and why the fuck not? Any other group of people can advocate for their continued existence, and she’ll tout their doing so as natural and laudable. A foolish consistency being the hobgoblin of little minds, she’s also not afraid of tossing out any idea – or candidate – no longer worth supporting – as she quickly did with Trump after he proved unable or unwilling to disregard the Jareds around him and get the goddamned wall built.
I don’t understand how she wouldn’t appeal to anyone with common sense (as uncommon as it is). Because she’s mean – a bitch? That’s the good part.
PS – How many other women columnists these days take the stance that women – with rare exception – have no fucking business being soldiers or cops or firemen? That would be ZERO.
calamity,
try looking at her after a case of beer & your wife is out of town,she’ll get your motor running–
just ask rins–
Does DeSantis need Coulter at the bat for him?
I am suspicious of anyone getting establishment support and no mistake Coulter is establishment.
Yeah, next step the FL Gov speaks at numerous conservative conventions, think tanks ad nauseum
Disagree a little, she was an early supporter of Trump cuz he picked up on the border issue when no one else would. She is no fan of the Bush clan.
70% of her columns are good. This just wasn’t one of them.
I don’t miss a one of her columns on TBP.
I mostly enjoy her. But putting DeSantis on her site so often smells of something coming. So, the question again…does DeSantis need/want her attention?
Never heard of this person, and i dont watch ann coulter so i dont belong here
Governor DeSantis is taking FLA in the right direction. He is leading the red states to ultimate liberation. That is my hope.
skip the story & go to the video–it’s only a minute or so–
you’ll understand why desantis makes liberal heads explode–
