UPDATE: May 29, 2018, 1:56 p.m. EDT Shortly after publishing this post, ABC announced that Roseanne has been canceled.

Roseanne Barr went on an exceedingly racist tirade this morning, even for her.

On Tuesday morning, Barr said this of President Obama's former black female advisor Valerie Jarrett: "Muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj." Barr's tweet caused understandable outrage on social media, eventually prompting the actress to quit Twitter. Wanda Sykes also resigned from her role as consulting producer on Roseanne.
