Trump shared the message in a post (archived here) on his Truth Social account on July 12, 2025. It read:
Because of the fact that Rosie O'Donnell is not in the best interests of our Great Country, I am giving serious consideration to taking away her Citizenship. She is a Threat to Humanity, and should remain in the wonderful Country of Ireland, if they want her. GOD BLESS AMERICA!

President Trump did not indicate under what presidential authority he would be able to revoke the citizenship of O'Donnell, who was born in the United States to a mother who was also born in the United States. O'Donnell's father was born in Ireland and immigrated to the United States.
