Did she have some kind of run-in with her or was she just thinking she was making a funny?

(30,613 posts)Honestly, I don't think I recall Jarrett's name from the Obama years; pretty obscure target for a career-ending tweetstorm!

(56,827 posts)if I recall, when that uninvited couple crashed a White House party - she was supposedly in charge of the guest list?

(30,613 posts)And you bolster my assertion that she's a pretty obscure target! How bizarre.

(5,190 posts)Desirée Rogers from Chicago was social Secretary early on. She was responsible for the gaff. Valerie Jarrett was one of Obama's closest and valued advisors

(90,740 posts)Attacking Obama - and those associated with him - is something she has been doing for a while now.
'Bout time Disney/ABC took a stand.

(1,301 posts)...especially early on. She was a long time friend of the Obamas, and former boss to Michelleor maybe even both of them. She worked on his campaign, before becoming an advisor.
Of course, I was not working back then and had a lot of time to watch the news. Now, I can hardly stand to turn the news on...

(17,984 posts)That obviously taught her nothing about tweeting BS conspiracy stories. So is she going to be banned again? Maybe permanently this time?
Solly Mack
(90,740 posts)and claim she meant for that to happen.
Whichever gets her the most attention.

(51,430 posts)He has been trashed a lot in the past but I think Roseanne tops him with her actions during the past 10 or so years.

(41,915 posts)It is tres bizarre.
BigmanPigman
(51,430 posts)about 6 hours ago. He was put down when he called her behavior out in the past. I think that is what he is talking about.
He tweeted:
"Ton of respect for Bob Iger, tweeted Arnold, who was married to Barr from 1990 to 1994, about Disney CEO, Bob Iger."
Continued Arnold: Tough decision with financial consequences for his company but right for America....umm
now don't bug Bob but maybe someone else find out if I'm still banned from all of @ABCNetwork for calling Roseanne Barr out first on her racist conspiracy tweets.
