"Roseanne" star Roseanne Barr attacked former Obama White House adviser Valerie Jarett in a tweet Tuesday morning alleging connections to the Muslim Brotherhood that many Twitter users called racist.

In a tweet, the ABC star attacked Jarett, who was born in Iran, as child of the Islamist organization and the movie "Planet of the Apes."

"muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj," she wrote, using Jarrett's initials and responding to a tweet accusing the former Obama adviser of helping "hide" misdeeds for the Obama administration.

Other tweets from Barr's account early Tuesday attacked billionaire liberal donor George Soros and Chelsea Clinton, whom the comedian linked to a right-wing conspiracy accusing Soros of trying to "overthrow of us constitutional republic."

I never ever found her to be funny

1. Guess someone

doesn't want her show to continue. Granted I doubt ABC will drop her revival. As much as I moderately enjoyed the revival, since she's going to continue with her crap, I can live without seeing season 11.

[olegramps]

8. I wonder how other actresses can stand being associated with her. Guess everyone has a price.

[Liberalagogo]

10. She's whored herself to the wingnuts for some reason

Not sure why the rest of the cast jumped on board. I guess for a semi-steady paycheck. I should think Metcalf, Goodman and even Gilbert are going to be taken aback by this, but will stay out of some misguided loyalty.

17. The rest of ther cast was already getting a pay check and were successful

It was only Roseanne who wasn't getting a paycheck.

Which is another reason they should have turned it down.

[yurbud]

20. at first, I thought this was a ploy to lure in the righties then sneak in a few moderating messages

Now, I'm not sure if it's that or she's just lost her shit.

[catbyte]

22. Sarah Gilbert is the most disappointing of all. I know she probably feels like she

owes her for starting her career, but that show ended years ago & Gilbert found success on her own. How she can work with a woman who wholeheartedly supports a man and a party who would love to see Gilbert's family ripped apart is beyond me.

34. Doesn't matter now--ABC pulled the plug on the show. I still wonder why ABC thought this was okay.

2. Never thought she was actually mentally ill -- until this.

[Tobin S.]

6. She's not mentally ill. She's just stupid and overcome by hate. n/t

[SWBTATTReg]

3. RB has always had a mouth on her and has always been ignorant...I've ignored her ...

new show and do not plan on watching. I am not going to support someone w/ a mouth like hers.

[hadEnuf]

4. I always found Rosanne to be a sarcastic, talentless ass.

But she sure does a good job of representing Trump supporters.

[relogic]

7. One more...

added to the poster children of mentally, potty-mouthed trumpistas riding the wave of deficients comprising what’s now billed as critical thinking. Oh, how the once mighty saner people of America have fallen to the utter depths of blissful ignorance and hate.

[Americanno]

5. She said the black advisor comes from the planet of the apes

If ABC doesn’t suspend or fire her, we should boycott.

[janterry]

9. wow. that's shocking. I feel for her co-stars

they had an opportunity to get back in the limelight. She's ruining it for them.

[Liberalagogo]

11. Time to find a sponsor list.

It's might be too early, but hey, if it kills her show before season 11 airs, so much the better.

[beachbum bob]

12. I hope this witch is thrown off her show

[DBoon]

13. She deserves unemployment

followed by obscurity

[psychopomp]

15. Her 15 minutes are past overdue

Now she's reaching out to the American Nazi demographic for ratings. Sad!

[mn9driver]

14. I doubt ABC wants to be linked to batshit crazy white nationalist tweets.

I expect she will not be back next season.

[Anon-C]

27. Ummm...

...

[bocephus864]

16. tRump had no issues with her and the National Anthem

18. Trash talking Chelsea Clinton too..........

http://money.cnn.com/2018/05/29/media/roseanne-twitter-chelsea-clinton/index.html

She then continued, "By the way, George Soros is a nazi who turned in his fellow Jews 2 be murdered in German concentration camps & stole their wealth-were you aware of that? But, we all make mistakes, right Chelsea?" This conspiracy theory about Soros has been debunked many times. The fact-checking site Snopes called it "false" back in 2016.


Yeah...well the TRUTH matters not to her and Trumps followers. Bet the Clinton run kiddie porn pizza joint is still their favorite topic.

[Princess Turandot]

19. She also tweeted in support of Brit bigot Tommy Robinson a few days ago..

Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, is the founder and former head of the English Defense League, a white supremacy group in the UK. He was just sent to the slammer for 13 months, for contempt of court, for trying to video capture the defendants in a sexual abuse-grooming trial going on right now. (Many of them are Muslims, thus his interest.) He had gotten arrested for this before: it's illegal to take photos of defendants at the court whilst they're being tried. His prior sentence was suspended, so the judge whacked him with contempt for doing it again.

'he has tried to report on rape gangs being protected in UK. He was just arrested-which is a death sentence-please get involved! it's sick pedo shit!'

[Bengus81]

24. Yeah...it figures that James Wood would suddenly be interested in Robinson...........

He's a POS just like Barr.

[yurbud]

21. I wonder if she didn't just realize she's rich & doesn't want to pay more taxes...

[Bengus81]

23. Already said it was a joke....anyone see a pattern with that BS??

Yup,the McCain comment was all a big JOKE too---once the SHIT hit the fan over it. Watch for lots of ASS covering by Barr and ABC in mass today.

[DeminPennswoods]

31. Yep, she's sorry and it was a "joke in bad taste"

She's sorry she got called out and that it might cost her a boatload of $$$s.

[Gothmog]

25. There is a pattern here

26. Any other democracy's media would hang this racist out to dry. But not in Trump's America.

[saidsimplesimon]

28. She is not funny or

even a decent human being. Let's call the show's sponsors and let them know we will boycott their products if they allow her show to continue. (I will not tell them it is not a show I have ever, like in never, watched.)

Cancel this show ABC executives, please, for the sake of your network.

[Stuart G]

29. She is too stupid to know what to say...

just as significant:

Other tweets from Barr's account early Tuesday attacked billionaire liberal donor George Soros and Chelsea Clinton, whom the comedian linked to a right-wing conspiracy accusing Soros of trying to "overthrow of us constitutional republic."

32. She's Done
