All Hell Breaks Loose Between Roseanne And Obama After His LIVE Charlie Kirk Remark
Barack Obama thought he had a political opening to attack President Trump, but Roseanne Barr just reminded America who actually built today’s cancel culture. The same former president who pioneered the Left’s censorship machine is now crying victim after one of his Hollywood allies was finally held accountable.
This week, Obama rushed to defend late-night host Jimmy Kimmel after ABC affiliates and major media groups pulled him off the air. Kimmel was yanked from “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” after spreading a vile lie to millions of viewers — claiming that Charlie Kirk was murdered by a “MAGA conservative.” Even liberal executives couldn’t stomach that smear. Nexstar Media, Sinclair Group, and Disney all confirmed that Kimmel’s show has been suspended “indefinitely.”
Instead of condemning the slander, Obama came running to Kimmel’s defense. In a statement, he accused President Trump’s administration of abusing power to silence critics:
“After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like. This is precisely the kind of government coercion that the First Amendment was designed to prevent — and media companies need to start standing up rather than capitulating to it.”
The irony is staggering. Obama perfected the cancel machine during his presidency — and now he wants Americans to believe he’s the victim of it.
That’s when Roseanne Barr unleashed her counterpunch. Barr, who lost her career overnight in 2018 after a single controversial tweet, reminded the world that it was Barack and Michelle Obama who directly pressured ABC to fire her.
“Remember when you and your wife called Bob Iger to have me fired?” Barr posted, referencing Disney’s former CEO. She had previously told the Sunday Times Magazine that Michelle Obama personally lobbied ABC to cancel her, while then-ABC president Channing Dungey — who later partnered with the Obamas at Netflix — carried out the order.
Barr has always admitted her Valerie Jarrett tweet was “stupid,” but she has also said it was a political critique of the Obama administration’s ties to Iran — not a racial slur. More importantly, Barr insists she was canceled because she was a Trump supporter. Her case illustrates exactly how Obama’s cancel machine worked: corporate pressure, backroom phone calls, and silencing conservatives under the guise of “tolerance.”
The Left’s cancel crusade has destroyed countless careers. Gina Carano was fired from The Mandalorian for speaking her mind. Megyn Kelly was forced out of NBC over Halloween costume commentary. Dave Chappelle was targeted by Netflix employees. Joe Rogan nearly lost his platform for questioning COVID narratives. Tucker Carlson was pushed off Fox News. Parler was erased from the internet. J.K. Rowling was blacklisted for defending women’s rights. Mike Lindell was banned from social media and retailers for supporting Trump. Conservative outlets like The Gateway Pundit have been cut off from ad networks and payment processors. None of this was accidental — it was the coordinated strategy of Obama’s political and corporate allies.
Even former congressional candidate Jack Lombardi pointed out that Obama himself weaponized government against the press. In 2009, his White House tried to freeze Fox News out of pool coverage until other networks rebelled. In 2013, the DOJ secretly seized AP reporters’ phone records and labeled Fox’s James Rosen a “co-conspirator” to spy on his communications. In 2014, the FCC floated a “newsroom study” to monitor journalists, which collapsed after a constitutional outcry.
Roseanne Barr’s pushback exposes the truth: Obama’s legacy is the cancel culture that has silenced conservatives for over a decade. When Trump supporters or right-leaning Americans speak freely, they’re destroyed. But when leftist celebrities like Jimmy Kimmel spread grotesque lies about conservatives, Obama runs interference.
This isn’t just hypocrisy. It’s the Left’s playbook. Obama built the machine, used it to crush dissent, and now pretends to be its victim when it finally turns on his allies.
