In an early morning post to Truth Social on Saturday, President Donald Trump threatened to revoke the American citizenship of his longtime critic Rosie O’Donnell.
“Because of the fact that Rosie O’Donnell is not in the best interests of our Great Country, I am giving serious consideration to taking away her Citizenship,” Trump wrote. “She is a Threat to Humanity, and should remain in the wonderful Country of Ireland, if they want her. GOD BLESS AMERICA!”

O’Donnell took to Instagram hours later to issue a response.
She wrote, “The president of the usa has always hated the fact that i see him for who he is – a criminal con man sexual abusing liar out to harm our nation to serve himself – this is why i moved to ireland – he is a dangerous old soulless man with dementia who lacks empathy compassion and basic humanity- i stand in direct opposition all he represents- so do millions of others – u gonna deport all who stand against ur evil tendencies – ur a bad joke who cant form a coherent sentence.”
Birthright citizenship, which has been tested by Trump early in his second term, is a protected right under the 14th Amendment of the Constitution and can not legally be revoked by the president.
O’Donnell revealed back in March that she left the United States to take up permanent residence in Ireland, a move largely motivated by Trump’s election to the presidency.
“Protect your sanity as much as you can, and try not to swim in the chaos, if possible,” O’Donnell said at the time. “But I know it’s nearly impossible when you’re there in the middle of it.”
