Did you think resident conservative it-girl Ann Coulter had retreated from the spotlight? Well, think again, because Ann has been slipping back into the public eye in a big way this week, with the press storm around her new book Adios, America! where she takes on immigration.

Coulter has spent the last week responding to the negative backlash against her new book and general opinions on the immigration of Mexicans into the United States. Last week, Ann stirred up discord by siding with Donald Trump’s statement that Mexican immigration directly contributed to problems with sexual assault on American soil. Donald’s comment was so poorly received that even current Republican presidential frontrunner Jeb Bush condemned it, along with a slew of his commercial partners.

Coulter, however, stuck with Trump. On Sunday, Ann appeared on Fox and Friends to talk about whether she felt vindicated by this decision after an undocumented immigrant who had been deported five times, 45-year-old Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez, shot and killed Kate Steinle, 31, while she walked along the San Francisco pier with her father on Wednesday evening, reported CNN.

Coulter began the Fox segment with another reference to the Jeb-Donald squabble.

“[Laughs] Yeah, not much to feel vindicated, [but] I’m dying to know whether or not Jeb Bush attacked Donald Trump for his comment the actual day that [Steinle] was murdered by an illegal immigrant or the next day. I’m gathering he won’t be speaking at her funeral.”

Ann continued with an opinion that she’s often expressed in her books and public speaking — that the American media is placing focus on threats that are distant and unlikely at best in favor of less politically palatable ones.

“You know, going into this weekend, the media was consumed with stories, Americans have to be on the lookout for ISIS attacks and terror attack expected, and oh, shark attacks. I will bet you by the end of the weekend, more Americans will have been killed by Mexicans than by ISIS or by sharks.”

Coulter did, however, say that this most recent case is getting more press attention than most stories where immigrants harm natural-born U.S. citizens. Specifically, Ann remarked that drunk driving is disproportionately carried out by Latin immigrants — something that the “liberal media” chooses to ignore or diminish the threat of.

“Drunk driving [is] one of the main ways particularly that Latin Americans kill Americans and people living here… There are so many drunk driving accidents, so many Americans being killed and raped in places liberals don’t go. They just take the cheap labor.”

Ann Coulter’s thoughts on Mexican immigration can be further explored in her new book Adios, America!, now available in stores and online.
