Rosie O’Donnell Flees to Ireland, Says She Won’t Return Until America is ‘Safe’ [WATCH]

Liberal actress and comedian Rosie O’Donnell has officially made good on her past threats to leave the United States, as The Gateway Pundit reported.

In a TikTok video, O’Donnell announced that she has packed up and moved to Ireland, bringing her 12-year-old child along for the ride. According to her, she won’t be setting foot back in the U.S. until it meets her standards of “safety” and “equal rights.”

“I was never someone who thought I would move to another country, that’s what I decided would be the best for myself and my 12-year-old child. And here we are,” O’Donnell said in her video.

“You know, I’m happy. Clay is happy. I miss my other kids. I miss my friends. I miss many things about life there at home, and I’m trying to find a home here in this beautiful country. And when it is safe for all citizens to have equal rights there in America, that’s when we will consider coming back.”

Of course, in typical Hollywood fashion, she couldn’t resist taking shots at President Trump and the media. O’Donnell accused mainstream news outlets of failing to “hold Trump accountable” and demanded that Americans “stand up” against his administration.

“The mainstream media has been letting us all down in America, where the fourth estate is required to maintain a democracy,” she ranted.

“They haven’t been doing their jobs. I encourage everyone to stand up, to use their voice, to protest, to demand that we follow the Constitution in our country, and not a king and not a man, and we don’t have cruelty as part of our governing style.”

In addition to uprooting her life over politics, O’Donnell also revealed she is in the process of securing Irish citizenship through her grandparents.

O’Donnell’s move isn’t exactly surprising, considering her long history of animosity toward President Trump. Their public feud dates back to before Trump’s political career, with O’Donnell frequently using her platform to attack him, and Trump firing right back.

Now, instead of sticking around to “fight,” she’s choosing self-imposed exile.

NEW: Rosie O’Donnell confirms she has fled the United States for Ireland following the election of Donald Trump.

The 62-year-old says she left and dragged her 12-year-old daughter with her because not all Americans have equal rights now.

She joins a growing list of Hollywood celebrities who have fled the country in response to Trump’s presidency. Ellen DeGeneres and her wife, Portia de Rossi, made headlines when they moved to the United Kingdom even before Trump took office.

For all the noise these celebrities make about leaving the country when they don’t get their way, it’s always amusing to see how few of them actually follow through. Rosie O’Donnell, however, appears to be one of the rare exceptions. The real question is: Will anyone actually miss her?
