Actress Rosie O’Donnell made inaccurate claims regarding the motives of the anti-Catholic shooter from Transmineapolis, suggesting he was “a Republican Magazine figure” among other statements.
Currently living in exile, O’Donnell has a daughter who identifies with they/them pronouns. She shared her views in a post on TikTok.
In her remarks, she called the shooter “a white man, a Republican, a Maga man… he knows Wadia… a white supremacist.”
Additionally, she stated, “The NRA is a terrorist organization, and they’ve been around for many years. […] The system is broken. We care more about guns than kids.”
O’Donnell questioned, “Isn’t Donald Trump enough? A Foundation of Heritage? Is it their bullshit? He’s their puppet. But what do you think?”
She expressed concern about Trump, saying, “Physically, emotionally, mentally, or they’re all wrapped up in one. He’s not doing well. He wants to enter heaven. I think it’s comical.”
O’Donnell urged people to protest against the current administration, saying, “Get thicker every day. We’re overwhelmed by his bullshit. […] Trust him when he says you don’t have to vote again after this election. I don’t think he’ll allow votes in the midterm.”
She speculated about martial law, stating, “I think what he’s doing now is going to all these democratic cities. I declare martial law. We can’t vote during martial law. I think that’s what he’s doing. Project 2025.”
As reported by Breitbart News, the shooter, who killed two children and injured numerous others, left a disturbing video where he expressed his intentions, saying, “F*ck themance Thich Kids.”
He changed his name from “Robert” to “Robin” at 17 and offered an apology to his family, but stated he would not apologize to anyone else.
The handwritten parts of his manifesto suggest that he had been planning the attack for some time.
This isn’t the first instance of an Irish actress commenting on US politics.
Earlier this year, O’Donnell indicated she left the US for Ireland, concerned about Trump’s potential second term. She has voiced multiple criticisms regarding the president and claimed that tech billionaire Elon Musk tampered with the votes, suggesting a recount, believing Kamala Harris should be the rightful winner.
