In a dramatic twist that feels ripped from a satirical script, Donald Trump has now turned his sights on Rosie O’Donnell. On Truth Social early Saturday morning, Trump boldly threatened to revoke Rosie’s U.S. citizenship. He claimed her presence does not serve the best interests of the nation. According to his tweet, he called her a “Threat to Humanity” and suggested that Ireland is better suited for her.
Rosie fired back on Instagram within hours. Her response was fierce and unapologetic. She labeled Trump a “criminal con man” and a “dangerous old soulless man” with dementia. Rosie made it clear that she stands against everything Trump represents. Her words recall the spirit of countless voices that resist oppressive power.
The fact is, birthright citizenship enjoys constitutional protection under the 14th Amendment. This right cannot be casually revoked by any president, no matter how fierce the rhetoric. Still, the exchange underscores the polarized nature of our times. Indeed, each side fires off barbs that echo deeper social divisions in America.
For many in the hip hop generation and beyond, this political theater is all too familiar. Our communities value truth and respect, and we know that divisive tactics only serve to intensify the chaos. So keep your eyes open and your ears to the street, because these battles over identity and power are not going away anytime soon.
