Rosie O’Donnell applies for Irish citizenship, White House says it’s ‘great news for America’

Rosie O’Donnell is applying for Irish citizenship amid her ongoing feud with President Donald Trump.

In an interview with the UK’s Daily Telegraph, the 63-year-old comedian explained she is putting herself in “self-imposed (political exile)” in Ireland after she first moved there in January of this year.

“I am applying and about to be approved for my Irish citizenship as my grandparents were from there and that’s all you need,” she told the outlet. “It will be good to have my Irish citizenship, especially since Trump keeps threatening to take away mine.”

“What great news for America!” White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson told Fox News Digital about the news.

The “A League of Their Own” star first announced that she had moved to Ireland in March, saying she made the move just five days before President Trump’s 2025 inauguration, telling her TikTok followers, “It’s been pretty wonderful.”

A few months after O’Donnell announced her big move, President Trump took to his social media platform Truth Social in July, with threats of stripping the comedian of her United States citizenship.

“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,” he 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 responded to the threat on her social media accounts, saying President Trump “has always hated the fact that i see him for who he is,” calling him “a criminal con man sexual abusing liar out to harm our nation to serve himself.”

What good news this morning.

She can now tell the Irish how racist and bigoted they are.

“””Absolutely don’t care. Not sure what movie that guy was in or why he called himself Rosie.””””

I think he was Fred Flintstone.

Centuries of subjugation. Famine. Exodus. Now Rosie.
The luck of the Irish.

May she be happy and stay there. The Irish can offer her a talk show.

In the article you didn’t read:

<>“I am also getting my citizenship here so I can have dual citizenship in Ireland and the United States because I enjoy living here,” she added.<>

I guess they forgot the part the famine. The best part of her life she probably left behind. All that's left for the Irish is her mouth.
