US President Donald Trump has threatened to take away the citizenship of famous talk show host Rosie O’Donnell because she criticized the management of the Texas floods. This is about Rosie O’Donnell, the Texas floods, Donald Trump and citizenship.
What’s the whole thing?
On July 4, 2025, a flood in the Guadalupe River in Texas killed over 120 people and hundreds are missing. The Texas Hill Country area, especially Kerr County, was devastated, where a children’s summer camp called Camp Mystic was also caught in the flood. After the disaster, Rosie O’Donnell criticized the Trump administration in a TikTok video. She said Trump’s cuts to environmental and weather agencies made it impossible to give early warnings for this flood and that’s why it was so bad.

Trump’s response
Angered by Rosie’s criticism, Donald Trump wrote on his Truth Social that Rosie O’Donnell is not for America and her citizenship is being considered for revocation. He called Rosie a threat to humanity and said she should stay in Ireland, where she went with her child after the beginning of Trump’s second term. Trump wrote if Ireland wants her, she should stay there. But it’s not that simple because Rosie was born in New York and under US law, natural-born citizens cannot have their citizenship revoked.
Rosie and Trump’s Old Feud
The feud between Rosie O’Donnell and Donald Trump is not new. This has been going on since 2006, when Rosie criticized Trump’s management of the Miss USA pageant on her show The View. Since then, Trump has insulted Rosie several times. In a debate in 2015, Trump said he only uses derogatory terms for women for Rosie. Rosie responded by calling Trump a criminal and a immoral person. This time, after criticizing the Texas floods, Trump’s anger flared up again.
Rosie’s response
Rosie responded to Trump’s threat on Instagram. She wrote she’s against Trump because she’s against everything Trump stands for. Rozy described Trump as a dangerous and insensitive person who’s hurting the country. She said she and millions of others are against Trump and will he take away everyone’s citizenship? Rosie also said she went to Ireland because Trump’s administration resumed.
Legal and social aspects
Legally, Trump’s threat is not possible. According to the 1967 Supreme Court decision, natural-born citizens cannot have their citizenship revoked without their consent. But Trump’s statement has raised questions on press freedom and freedom of speech. Many consider it a dangerous move. Some on X have called it dictatorial.
Conclusion
Rosie O’Donnell, Texas floods, Donald Trump and citizenship controversy is back in the news. This is not just personal vendetta but also how to silence the critics.
