Rosie O’Donnell Responds to Threats Over Citizenship

Rosie O’Donnell openly criticized former President Donald Trump after he publicly suggested he might revoke her U.S. citizenship, citing her as a “threat to humanity.” In a nearly 10-minute TikTok video, the actress and comedian confirmed she is currently residing in Ireland, away from what she described as Trump’s “absurd” threats. She reassured her followers, saying, “I’m safe in Ireland; I’m out of the reach of the tangerine dictator.”

Trump, 79, took to Truth Social to state he was considering stripping O’Donnell of her citizenship, claiming she was harmful to the country. He wrote, “Because she’s not in the best interests of our Great Country, I am giving serious thought to taking her citizenship away. She is a threat to humanity, and should remain in Ireland if they want her. GOD BLESS AMERICA.”

Earlier this year, O’Donnell moved to Ireland following Trump’s victory in the 2024 presidential election. She praised the country’s weather and harshly criticized Trump’s policies, especially his immigration policies, which she called “insanity.” Additionally, she accused Trump of battling dementia, although his doctor has affirmed his “excellent cognitive and physical health.”

President Trump — Trump has previously called O’Donnell derogatory names and criticized her political stance.

O’Donnell asserted that her U.S. citizenship is protected by the Constitution, citing the 14th Amendment which grants birthright citizenship. She emphasized her intention to keep her American citizenship intact, while also acquiring Irish dual citizenship, saying, “I will never renounce my American citizenship. I’m waiting happily for my Irish citizenship, but I will never give up my U.S. citizenship.”

No comment has yet been received from Trump’s spokesperson about her statements.
