Rosie O’Donnell slings wild allegations at Trump after he threatens to revoke her citizenship

Former talk show host Rosie O’Donnell on “The Jim Acosta Show” Friday alleged President Donald Trump had engaged in deviance with deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein two days after the president said his administration was considering revoking her U.S. citizenship.

Trump wrote on Truth Social Wednesday that O’Donnell “is not a Great American” and that he believed she was “incapable of being” one. When host Jim Acosta said on the show that Trump’s name was in the Epstein files for unknown reasons, O’Donnell disagreed, saying the reasons were evident while citing unproven claims.

“We all know why. You have to know why,” O’Donnell said. “Why else do you think he paid a billion dollars to Jeffrey Epstein over the time of their friendship? A billion dollars.”

Snopes fact-checked the rumor that Trump paid $1 billion to Epstein and found that it was false. Over 4,000 transactions were made from one of Epstein’s accounts, according to  a speeches by Democratic Washington Sen. Ron Wyden, but he did not alleged any were to the president.

“He wrote in his birthday book, ‘Here’s to all the secrets.’ Come on! If this was an Angela Lansbury ‘Murder, She Wrote,’ people would be, ‘It’s too obvious.’ It’s so obvious that he is guilty as sin,” O’Donnell added.

The Wall Street Journal alleged in a July piece that Trump sent Epstein a suggestive letter for his 50th birthday in 2003. However, Trump has denied the reporting and filed a lawsuit over it against Rupert Murdoch, Dow Jones & Company Inc., News Corporation and the two reporters who authored it.

“Our president is a serial pedophile rapist,” O’Donnell also claimed.

Even The Washington Post reported in July that while “Trump and Epstein had a relationship,” there is “no evidence of Trump wrongdoing.”

Moreover, ABC News paid $15 million to settle Trump’s defamation lawsuit against the network in December after “This Week” host George Stephanopoulos inaccurately asserted in March 2024 that Trump was found liable of rape.
