Roseanne Barr made it clear on Wednesday she's considering fighting ABC's move to cancel her revival after her racist tweet -- and the comic even pushed an accusation that former first lady Michelle Obama was behind her ouster.
Despite initially saying she would be quitting Twitter after posting a negative and racially charged comment about former Obama aide Valerie Jarrett, the star returned Tuesday and let loose on social media.
On Wednesday, Barr revealed that the positive feedback she was getting from people who still support her was making her feel emboldened to combat ABC in some way.
You guys make me feel like fighting back. I will examine all of my options carefully and get back to U, she wrote.
One right-wing activist even went as far as to accuse ABC Entertainment President Channing Dungey of consulting former first lady Michelle Obama before canceling her show. Barr retweeted the unproven claim to her followers.

obama’s and Jarrett are behind very many things right now, including directing this Russia crap.
The rapidity of her cancellation told me the Obamas were behind it, no question.
I believe it.
Don’t bother, Roseanne. Move the show to Fox or a cable outlet. Look how Disney has changed:

Of course Michelle Obama was involved. The rapid outcry and disproportionate response from ABC is evidence enough.
One call, and their mind is ‘made up’.
Barr never should have apologized, and should have insisted there was nothing racist, and that the Planet of the Apes was a fascist organization
Whatever it is , Roseanne should not go back to Disney. If she had been smart, she’d have taken one show in the first season and taken the cast to Disneyland to stoke Walt’s glorious, lost past - which would have infuriated the EisnerStoddardSherwood anti-Walt kabal far, far more than her dumb joke.
loss of power. loss of prospects. Still black
How in the hell is ABC so tone-deaf not to see Roseanne's actions as pluperfect for Season Two ie Roseanne denies/bargaining/intervention/admission to being 'middle-aged addicted' to Rx, with rehab to follow. A freaking four-show story curve!
But no the kabal cannot have a star -- particularly a woman, mind you -- saying those kinds of things about the people at their cocktail parties.
Yeah but that joke hit home. Hard.
Apparently JarJar is sensitive about her heritage, and if you've seen the side-by-side pic with her and "Ari" (Helena Bonham Carter, from that godawful '01 POTA reboot)...well...
I don’t remember. Please refresh my memory.
should sue ABC for giving up a billion dollar show...
because 'they' weren't willing to accept an apology from Roseanne Barr...
