Having now blocked Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief Ben Shapiro (and being told by Twitter to delete her offensive Tweets), Rosie O’Donnell is looking to fill the Twitter-abuse void in her life by attacking Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) for having the temerity to say “Merry Christmas” following his vote on the GOP tax reform bill.
According to O’Donnell, Ryan is the equivalent of Judas, the disciple who betrayed Jesus and ultimately leading to Jesus’ crucifixion, for having allowed the American people to keep a tad more of their money.
“paul ryan – don’t talk about Jesus after what u just did to our nation – u will go straight to hell,” O’Donnell wrote. “U screwed up fake altar boy,” she continued, clearly demonstrating her expert grasp of Catholicism.

O’Donnell, of course, is no fan of the Republican tax cut; last week she offered two sitting senators, Jeff Flake (R-AZ) and Susan Collins (R-ME), $2 million each to vote against the bill, possibly in violation of federal bribery law (and that depends heavily on whether either Flake or Collins thought she was serious, and whether a reasonable person could believe she did not make the offer simply out of a hyperbolic, misplaced fear of thousands dying in the streets because of a minor adjustment in the tax code).
Rosie also began her spat with Shapiro as a result of her bizarre tax offer, telling Daily Wire’s editor-in-chief to “suck my d***” after Shapiro chastised her for attempting to bribe sitting politicians to vote a particular way on a bill. Twitter eventually (and finally) applied their anti-harassment standards evenly, removing Rosie’s vulgar tweet.
