Roseanne doubles down on Valerie Jarrett attacks in new tweets as ABC considers rebooting show without her
Roseanne Barr is writing checks her butt can’t cash, especially since she’s unemployed after ABC axed her show and yet the disgraced actress is still on social media retweeting racist posts about Valerie Jarrett.
Barr has promised to go leave social media after the firestorm of calling the former Obama advisor “an ape” and she tweeted: “I’m making restitution for the pain I have caused.” But instead, she’s still sharing posts that attack Jarrett, reports Daily Mail.

“You didn’t cause any pain. Those people always hated you. Valerie Jarrett wants Israelis and Jews chased into the sea, and she’ll celebrate,” tweeted one of her supporters.
Barr also shared another tweet that attacked on Tuesday that read:
“Do you not know what VJ has done?” wrote the user, referencing Jarrett. “Her tweet is nothing in comparison. And her tweet wasn’t bullying.”
Barr shared the tweet and replied: “They know not.”
Last month, the Trump supporter and star of ABC’s Roseanne fired off a racist tweet suggesting that former Barack Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett is an ape.
“muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj,” Barr tweeted in response to a post about Jarrett.
Barr attacked Jarrett, an African American woman who was born in Iran, in response to an article which unsubstantiated claims that former President Obama spied on the President of France. Barr’s Muslim comment toward Jarrett follows the thought process of conservatives who tried to unsuccessfully assert that Jarrett was behind a secret push to make America a “more Islamic country.” According to the fact-checking website, Snopes, that claim is “false.”
In an epic move by ABC, Barr’s show was cancelled following the fallout.
“Roseanne’s Twitter statement is abhorrent, repugnant and inconsistent with our values, and we have decided to cancel her show,” ABC Entertainment president Channing Dungey said in a statement.
Clearly Roseanne Barr hasn’t learned her lesson. She’ll really have something to tweet about if plans for ABC to move forward with a show spinoff without her come together.
