The legendary comedian Roseanne Barr is being hit with some serious backlash after she dared to post a photo to social media of herself posing with the former Donald Trump advisor Michael Flynn.

Barr Poses With Flynn For Photo
OK! Magazine reported that Barr took to the social media platform X, which was formerly known as Twitter, on Monday to post a photo of herself posing with Trump’s former national security advisor Flynn in the lobby of a building.
“I’d like to introduce you to my new boyfriend,” Barr sarcastically captioned the image.
It didn’t take long for this to trigger liberals, given how much they despise both Barr and Flynn.
“Ewww!” one social media user commented, with another adding, “a match made in MAGA h—.”
“Just when you thought you couldn’t hate them both any more,” a third hater wrote, with another adding, “Look what Ambien is making Roseanne do today.”
Others, however, expressed their support for the pair.
“Two great Patriots!” commented one supporter, with another adding, “glad to see that smile, Roseanne.”
“This made my day,” wrote a third supporter, with a fourth writing, “Love you both!!!!”

Of course, Barr and Flynn aren’t really a couple, as he has been married to his wife Lori Andrade since 1981. That being said, Barr and Flynn are both patriots who love this great country, so it comes as no surprise that the two of them are friends!

Barr’s New Show
This comes at an exciting time for Barr, as earlier this month, The New York Post reported that she had signed a six-figure deal that includes her being given her own show on Elon Musk’s social media platform X.
“We’re followers of Elon and it’s pretty evident to us that whatever we want goes,” Barr said in a video announcing the program. “It’s a great way for people to fight back against totalitarianism.”
“Elon’s push since he bought Twitter is all about free speech — he stands by comedy, which is a crucial part of the First Amendment,” added Barr’s son Jake Pentland, who went on to say that the show will be “funnier than programs on other platforms” since X is “the only platform that allows free speech.”
I couldn’t be more excited to start a show right here on X!@elonmusk has said that “Comedy is legal” on his site. We will certainly be taking advantage of that!
Thank you to @officialpsq for standing up for the first amendment! 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/Zpsrj1sPLh

Barr’s History And Comeback
Barr was targeted by cancel culture back in 2018 after she posted a tweet about Barack Obama’s former advisor Valerie Jarrett that many found to be racist. ABC responded by cancelling the reboot of her iconic sitcom “Roseanne,” before bringing back the show with the rest of the cast and renaming it “The Conners,” killing off Barr’s character in the process.
Daily Mail reported that Barr launched her comeback earlier this year with her standup comedy special “Cancel This!,” which premiered on Fox Nation back in February.
“They didn’t do it to anyone else in Hollywood, although they always [mention] Dave Chappelle and Louis C.K.,” she said at the time. “Well, Louis C.K. did lose everything, but he committed an actual [offense]. And Dave Chappelle was protected by Netflix.”
“I’m the only person who’s lost everything, whose life’s work was stolen, stolen by people who I thought loved me. And there was silence,” she continued. “There was no one in Hollywood really defending me publicly.”

As for Flynn, he’s been laying low as of late. Both him and Barr have been through quite a bit in recent years, so we’re glad to see that they appear to be in such good spirits in their viral photo!

No matter what others think Flynn served his Country admirably. The left came after him and practically destroyed his life. You see he is still standing.
