Rosie O’Donnell was caught ranting in a bar in Northern Ireland about Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension from his late-night show on ABC, eyewitnesses told The Post.
The one-time co-host of ABC’s left-wing chat show The View unleashed another unhinged tirade against her longtime nemesis President Trump at the Old Commercial Bar and Lounge near the Northern Irish town of Downpatrick on Thursday, according to multiple sources.
“Now Trump gets to decide who tells late-night jokes,” she griped during a 20-minute drinking session at the pub, which is nicknamed by locals as “Mannie’s” after the 158-year-old tavern’s original owner, according to sources.
O’Donnell had earlier posted a string of anti-Trump messages on her Instagram profile, with one deranged post reading: “--— this fascist administration and corrupt corporate executives. Bowing to the orange monster – America is no more.”
Landlord Barry Gilliland said he had served the comedian during what one of The Post’s moles called “a friendly exchange” as she necked glasses of Smithwick’s Red Ale, a popular Irish beer, with fellow American tourists.

BWAAHAHAHAHA
It’s ok if everyone is forced to bow down to her homo ideology, but God forbid someone else has a voice.
Let’s face the truth here. People like her are all about a few simple issues like LGBTQIA rights. There’s just not much more to shallow minded, uneducated and uncultured savages like her.
She’s just a loud mouth that people find entertaining, but even most of the people that she entertains don’t subscribe to her beliefs because she’s like a circus freak from long ago.
She may as well be the Ape woman only she doesn’t even realize that her life is only entertaining to people because she’s a living freak show: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julia_Pastrana
Hush, ya shanty Irish b***h.

The American tourists probably kept buying her rounds to get her good and wound up, then stepped back and watched the train wreck unfold.

Morons still don’t understand-24% in the ratings isn’t a good model for sustainable business.
He was fired by his employer for doing a bad job related to his decision to become addicted to hate. His civil rights were not violated. He still has his life. He can still speak his mind. He could even engage with people that disagreed with him in civil debate (if he is able to get over the hate thing suffiemtly). As a leftist he could do so with much more safety than leffists allow non leftists to have.
Though maybe a pub in Southern Ireland would have been still more appropriate!

Fired for telling jokes. What was the joke?
GROK:
Annual Losses: Reports estimate Jimmy Kimmel Live! was losing ABC approximately $40–50 million per year, with production costs around $100 million annually. This mirrors losses for similar shows, like CBS’s The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, which was canceled in July 2025 after reportedly losing $40 million yearly.
Declining Ad Revenue: Across ABC, CBS, and NBC late-night programs, advertiser spending on linear broadcasts fell to $221 million in 2024, down from $439 million in 2016. For Jimmy Kimmel Live!, year-to-date ad revenue through 2025 was under $70 million, despite serving over 200 brands (e.g., Allstate, McDonald’s). Kimmel himself has noted that early seasons of his show (with 5x current viewership) were already claimed to be unprofitable, and he disputes overly simplistic loss figures by highlighting overlooked affiliate fees worth hundreds of millions.
Viewership Drop: The show lost 72% of its key 18–49 demographic over the past decade, averaging 1.77 million total viewers in Q2 2025—far below peaks like Johnny Carson’s era. This has made it less appealing to advertisers, exacerbating losses since at least 2023.
Kimmel wife is also a writer and producer of the show
She may have written the “joke”
Lighten up, Frances. It’s not as if Kimmel got shot in the neck.
O’Donut is grieving like a 4 year old whose goldfish died.
Rosie ate the goldfish while she was drinking
At least Jimmy Kimmels wife won’t have to try to explain to her children why daddy isn’t coming home, you heartless bitch.
She’s probably a mean drunk at home where she can go on a tirade in private.
She thought it was an olive.
20-minute drinking session
Most of the numbers I see....from 2018-to-2022....the show was not generating profit to cover Kimmel’s $15M salary, the guests cost, and the production team. Added to this problem....less urbanized stations (Missouri, Carolinas, Tenn for example)...they were not making anything much off commercials. Maybe for his initial first five years...before he got political...he made the network/stations money.
“”””...they were not making anything much off commercials.”
As an uneducated deplorable my first observation is...who watches tv???? Constant commercials with some occasional “entertainment”. Tv is a dinosaur.
I thought this lesbo chose to live in Ireland. That’s her new country. She really needs to STFU. Americans don’t care what she wants to whine about. “We Really Don’t Care, Rosie”. Get a life. Go milk some cows.
