Rihanna unleashed a scathing twitter attack on President Trump in the wake of his controversial temporary ban on all travelers from seven majority-Muslim countries.
"Disgusted!" RiRi wrote, "The news is devastating! America is being ruined right before our eyes! What an immoral pig you have to be to implement such BS!!"

When rapper Azealia Banks defended President Trump, asking of Rihanna, who was born in Barbados, "Is she even American???? Can she even vote?" and calling on the U.S. to continue "a war we HAVE to finish or else it will finish us," Rihanna clapped back hard, taunting Banks over her recent admission that she sacrifices chickens as part of the practice of witchcraft.
Rihanna hashtagged a saucy image of herself #stayawayfromthechickens and responded to Banks' questioning of her status with, "The face you make when you a immigrant" and a Barbados flag emoji.

In response, Banks reportedly posted Rihanna's home phone number in a now-deleted Instagram post.
Many other celebrities have reacted to the ban. Check out their tweets!

I have worked for decades on religious tolerance. @realDonaldTrump's Muslim ban is against everything this country was founded on. Shameful.

"Dad, are we finally safe from people who come from countries where Trump has no business interests?"

"Yes, sweetie. Go to sleep."
Resistance works. We will not allow a sick childish fool to destroy the world's oldest democracy. We will stay vigilant & keep fighting!

Sick to my stomach today about the #MuslimBan
@kerrywashington
Don't understand why? Go to @Stl_Manifest & learn the awful history of US rejecting refugees
Can't believe he's actually doing the disgusting unconstitutional things he promised to do. The Muslim ban is awful & will not be tolerated.

My best friend, Alaa Mohammad Khaled, is Muslim. His parents were Palestinian refugees. His brother is DJ Khaled. #RefugeesWelcome pic.twitter.com/qXOapgvvF7

If you are outraged by the ban on refugees, tell your Representative in DC. This is the DC switchboard 202-225/3121. They will connect you.

This ban is racist and unconstitutional and illegal ...

This is a beautiful story. When we reject Iraqi refugees, we reject Brahim. Shame on America. Shame on Donald Trump. https://t.co/1NzFtUPvm8
