Barr was the face and name of her own hit comedy series, Roseanne, from 1988 to 1997, which was revived by ABC in 2017. The show’s return to the network was a critical hit at the time but was short-lived.
The lead actress was fired from the show after she referred to former President Barack Obama’s adviser, Valerie Jarrett, as the offspring of the “Muslim Brotherhood & Planet of the Apes” on Twitter, now known as X.
She has since become an outspoken, foul-mouthed conservative activist and a major supporter of President Donald Trump, speaking at a number of his political events.
