Even Ann Coulter finds the Texas abortion ruling in the Kate Gox case too cruel to gloat. (Remember, though: This is the same woman who once told Nikki Haley to "go back to your own country.") Via the Daily Beast:

The conservative pundit took to X on Tuesday to come out in support of Kate Cox, the woman whose unsuccessful fight to get an abortion in Texas made national headlines this month, and savagely scorch the politics that denied her the right to the procedure.

“The prolife movement has gone from compassion for the child to cruelty to the mother (and child),” Coulter tweeted. “Trisomy 18 is not a condition that is compatible with life.”

[...] Coulter, who in 2007 floated the idea of taking away women’s suffrage and generally seems to enjoy railing against “wokeness” and feminism, has been showing the tiniest hint of a blue streak this year.

In April, she called for Republicans to tone down their attempts to pass draconian abortion bans, tweeting there would “be no Republicans left” if they continued—though not before signaling her allegiance: “Pro-lifers: WE WON.”
