Roseanne Barr is offering up another apology in wake of her ABC sitcom being cancelled over a racist tweet, this time for calling billionaire philanthropist George Soros a Nazi.
She had previously doubled down on the statement when apologizing to Chelsea Clinton for saying she was married to Soros' nephew (which is not true). Barr apologized for that mistake, but added, "By the way, George Soros is a Nazi who turned in his fellow Jews to be murdered in German concentration camps and stole their wealth; were you aware of that? But, we all make mistakes, right Chelsea?"
