Rosie O’Donnell closed out her week as guest host of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" with another round of sharp criticism aimed at President Donald Trump.

According to Fox News, O’Donnell delivered her final monologue Thursday while filling in for Jimmy Kimmel, who is on summer break. She thanked viewers for watching before turning her attention to the White House.

"I’ve really enjoyed my time here thanks to everyone who’s been watching this week, especially the hungry, hungry hypocrite in the White House," O’Donnell said.

She also thanked Kimmel for giving her the opportunity to host, saying he had reminded viewers of their right to free speech.

"Whether orange Voldemort likes it or not," she added.

The White House responded to O’Donnell’s comments.

Spokesperson Davis Ingle told Fox News Digital that O’Donnell is "a nasty woman and a total slob whose brain has been completely destroyed by Trump Derangement Syndrome."

The remarks followed several days of attacks on Trump during O’Donnell’s guest-hosting run.

On Wednesday, O’Donnell referenced comments made by Democratic Georgia Sen. Jon Ossoff during a Georgia rally. She joked about Trump needing to "hang up your wig" and let Natalie Harp, a White House personality, "tuck you in."

O’Donnell also used her Tuesday monologue to joke about her renewed visibility after leaving the United States following Trump’s 2024 election victory.

"I’m back in the spotlight all thanks to President Oompa J. Loompa," she said, adding another joke about the president watching the program.

During Monday’s opening monologue, O’Donnell revisited her decision to move to Ireland. She joked that she saw Project 2025 and decided she needed to leave the country.

O’Donnell later returned to the United States for her guest-hosting appearance and other media engagements.

Her dispute with Trump stretches back nearly two decades. The two began publicly feuding in 2006 after O’Donnell criticized Trump during her time as a co-host of "The View."

Trump responded with his own attacks, and the two continued trading insults publicly over the years.

In 2014, O’Donnell told People that the criticism she received from

Trump had been among the most intense bullying she had experienced.

"Probably the Trump stuff was the most bullying I ever experienced in my life, including as a child," she said.
