The Don claimed that O'Donnell was "not in the best interests of our Great Country".
He said: "She is a Threat to Humanity, and should remain in the wonderful Country of Ireland, if they want her. GOD BLESS AMERICA!"
It comes after longtime Trump critic O'Donnell discussed her decades-long conflict with Trump and her 2024 move to Ireland before Trump's inauguration in a HuffPost interview this month.
The 63-year-old said: "I look at America and I feel overwhelmingly depressed.
"I knew what [the Trump administration] was planning to do, because I read Project 2025."
She added: "I know what he's capable of. And I didn't want to put myself through another four years of him being in charge."

Love Island fans insist girl has let mask slip and we're finally seeing ‘the real her' saying ‘she's obsessed with him!'
LOVE Island fans insist one Casa Amor girl has let her mask slip - and is finally revealing the "real her." The female spin-off villa arrival made her entry alongside five other beauties last week. 6 6 6 Love Island 2025 OG Harry was left stunned when his ex Emma Munro entered the compound, and he could be heard saying: "Oh my god, it's my ex." The Sun has previously revealed the identity of Harry's ex-girlfriend - after fans spotted a secret tribute to her. The Sun uncovered that the woman was named Emma after viewers noticed Harry 's wrist tattoo of the letter 'E' and began digging for clues online. Fans then previously insisted the late arrival should win the series after dishing out home truths to Harry before revealing the real reason for their split. Yet as their connection appears to take a turn - after Harry pulls Emma for a chat and they enjoy some new banter about PDA - fans reckon they have the brunette beauty sussed. They have now suggested she is "obsessed" with her ex after previously claiming the two were done. A clip posted to Instagram showed Harry initiating a conversation before she gushed they were "so comfortable." Now fans have alleged she is playing a "game plan" which has now been exposed. One wrote alongside the video clip: "Not surprised, Emma has been obsessed with Harry since she came in tbh." Watch awkward moment Casa Amor girl Emma confronts Helena over Harry Another posted: "Now we are seeing the real Emma … she's SO obsessed with Harry!" A third then mused: "Emma is absolutely baiting Harry into this behaviour and I'm here for it!! Helena needed this wake up call." Another quizzed: "What is the hold that Harry has on all these women?" One bluntly wrote: "Emma's game plan the whole time," as another posted: "Emma come for Harry clear as day she's been wanting his attention from the minute she walked in." Love Island 2025 - Casa Amor girls WHO are the latest bombshells heading into the spin-off villa? The Sun exclusively reported the identities of the six beauties heading into the ITV2 spin-off villa, after it was teased during last week's episode. The Love Island newbies were seen strolling into the compound clad in swimwear - with one already having a connection to Harry. On the show's official Instagram page it teased: "Amor the merrier… who's ready for Casa Amor?" and now we can report the full line-up. Lauren Wood, 26, Emma Munro, 30 Lucy Quinn, 21 Yasmin Broom, 26 Andrada Pop, 27 Rheo Parnell, 26 HARRY'S HEAD TURNS In a clip that aired on last night's episode of AfterSun, Emma is seen having a heart to heart with Harry. She tells him: "I don't think anyone has a gauge on how deep our relationship actually was. "It's not nice is it for the other girls, we're so comfortable." He replies: "Dangerously." The camera cuts to Helena sulking in the kitchen. She asks Tommy to see if Harry and Emma are "laughing" or having a serious conversation. He spots them giggling together, and showing just how close they are, Emma tells Harry to "sniff my armpit" adding "go on". Harry replies: "It's taking everything in me not to sniff your armpit." Helena looks furious and tells Tommy: "I'm not having this. "He literally just walked straight past me to get to her." Harry was previously swayed by Rheo in Casa Amor, and original girl Shakira, before Helena won him back. 6 6 6

Post Office transformation effort gets £118m funding boost
Why you can trust Sky News Efforts to turn around the crisis-hit Post Office have been given a £118m funding boost as the government continues to consider a new ownership structure. Sky News revealed in October last year, as the Horizon IT scandal inquiry neared its conclusion, that a government-commissioned review was to explore the idea of a mutual model. It would effectively see ownership transferred from the government to sub-postmasters, creating a John Lewis Partnership-style structure, if such an option was to be followed through. It's being considered as a way to return public and postmaster trust to the Post Office. The options are to be the subject of a 12 week consultation on the organisation's future. The new £118m subsidy package was being made available, the Department for Business and Trade said, to fund the transformation plan and further investment. "This funding will protect key services, including access to cash deposits and withdrawals as well as key government services, such as passport applications and the DVLA, alongside helping the Post Office deliver cost-saving measures in its Transformation Plan, part of the New Deal for Postmasters", the statement said. Post Office minister Gareth Thomas added: "Post Offices continue to be a central part of our high streets and communities across the country. "However, after 15 years without a proper review, and in the aftermath of the Horizon scandal, it's clear we need a fresh vision for its future. "This Green Paper marks the start of an honest conversation about what people want and need from their Post Office in the years ahead." 2:55 But the general secretary of the Communication Workers Union, Dave Ward, accused the department of lacking sincerity. He responded: "Successive governments have failed the Post Office, its workers and customers - and choosing to use government subsidies for planned redundancies, closures and so-called transformation plans that are nothing more than managed decline. "This Labour Government are unashamedly doing exactly the same as the Tories did - managing the politics of the Post Office, prioritising further cost-cutting and offering no vision for its future." The update was provided as sub-postmasters await further conclusions from the Horizon IT inquiry. The first volume, published last week, highlighted the impact of false theft and false accounting accusations made against at least 1,000 postmasters. It concluded that 13 people may have taken their own lives after being falsely accused of wrongdoing, based on evidence from the IT system that the Post Office and developers Fujitsu knew could be faulty. At the same time, inquiry chair Sir Wyn Williams recommended further action to improve compensation outcomes amid years of frustration over delays and wrangling over the sums due.

Ukraine war briefing: Trump says he will send Patriot missile defence systems to Kyiv
Donald Trump has said he will send Patriot air defence missiles to Ukraine and that they are 'desperately' needed to defend the country because Russian president Vladimir Putin 'talks nice but then he bombs everybody in the evening'. The US president did not give a number of Patriots he plans to send to Kyiv but said the European Union would reimburse the US for their cost. 'They are going to pay us 100% for that, and that's the way we want it,' Trump told reporters on Sunday. The moves come amid a souring of Trump's relations with Putin and just two weeks after Washington said it would pause some arms deliveries to Kyiv. US senators touted a bipartisan bill that would arm Trump with 'sledgehammer' sanctions to use against Russia, ahead of the latest visit to Ukraine by US special envoy Keith Kellogg. Trump said he would make a 'major statement … on Russia' on Monday. Republican senator Lindsey Graham – a top ally of Trump – said on Sunday he had majority backing in the Senate for his bill, which was gaining momentum as US-led peace efforts in Ukraine struggled. The bill would allow Trump 'to go after Putin's economy and all those countries who prop up the Putin war machine', he told broadcaster CBS. Trump has indicated he would be open to the sanctions bill after repeatedly saying he is 'disappointed' with Putin over Moscow's deadly missile barrages against Ukraine. Nato secretary general Mark Rutte is set to meet Trump this week on the heels of the US president announcing plans to sell Nato allies weaponry that it can then pass on to Ukraine. Nato said Rutte would be in Washington on Monday and Tuesday and would meet with Trump, secretary of state Marco Rubio and defence secretary Pete Hegseth as well as Congress. French defense minister Sebastien Lecornu, meanwhile, said in an interview published on Sunday in La Tribune Dimanche that European officials had been making the case to the Trump administration to bolster air defence capabilities with any coming packages. He said France was in a 'capacity hole' and would have to wait until next year before being able to provide Ukraine new ground-to-air missiles. Ukraine's SBU security service has announced it tracked down and killed Russian agents they said had assassinated one of their members. A two-strong team – a man and a woman – had killed Col Ivan Voronich in Kyiv on Thursday, it said. 'A special operation was conducted this morning, during which members of the Russian FSB agent group put up resistance and they were eliminated,' the SBU statement on Sunday said. It did not specify how many people had been killed but the SBU posted a video in which two bodies were visible. The team that killed Voronich had spent time getting to know his daily schedule and routes, the SBU said. The UN nuclear watchdog said it had heard hundreds of rounds of small arms fire late on Saturday at Ukraine's Russian-occupied nuclear power plant at Zaporizhzhia. The International Atomic Energy Agency said on Sunday that the large number of shots – repeatedly fired for about an hour from 10pm local time – was unusual and that it was seeking further information. Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov met with his Chinese counterpart in Beijing on Sunday to discuss Ukraine as well as relations with the US. Lavrov arrived in China after a visit to North Korea, where he received assurances of support in its conflict with Ukraine. Lavrov and Wang Yi's talks included 'the outlook for settling the Ukrainian crisis', Russia's foreign ministry said.
