ABC has cancelled Roseanne’s new show over her disgusting tweets this morning.
On Tuesday morning, Roseanne Barr attacked former Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett on Twitter. And it didn’t go over well.
In Barr’s racist tweet, she connected Jarrett to the Muslim Brotherhood and the “Planet of the Apes.”
Her tweet, which has since been deleted, said that if the Muslim Brotherhood and the “Planet of the Apes” had a baby it would be Valerie Jarrett.
After major backlash, Barr was forced to apologize. And she now says that she’s going to leave Twitter.
I apologize to Valerie Jarrett and to all Americans. I am truly sorry for making a bad joke about her politics and her looks. I should have known better. Forgive me-my joke was in bad taste.

I apologize. I am now leaving Twitter.

One person who wasn’t pacified by Roseanne’s apology is her show’s producer Wanda Sykes. Sykes has finally had enough of her bullshit. She tweeted out on Tuesday afternoon that she will be leaving the show.
I will not be returning to @RoseanneOnABC.

Roseanne also put out other gross tweets on Tuesday morning attacking George Soros and Chelsea Clinton.
“Soros’ goal; the overthrow of us constitutional republic by buying/backing candidates 4 local district attorney races who will ignore US law & favor ‘feelings’ instead-and call everyone who is alarmed by that ‘racist,’” one tweet read.
Then she tweeted, “Chelsea Soros Clinton.”
