50 Cent Says He's Going to ‘Make Sure' Trump's Aware of ‘Really Bad' Things Diddy Said About President
50 Cent is making his feelings about Sean 'Diddy' Combs known to Donald Trump after the president relayed that he'd 'look at the facts' of the embattled music mogul's sex trafficking case regarding a potential pardon.
'[Diddy] said some really bad things about Trump, it's not ok. I'm gonna reach out so he knows how I feel about this guy,' 50 Cent wrote in a since-deleted May 30 post to Instagram captured by Rolling Stone. 'Donald doesn't take well to disrespect, and doesn't forget who chooses to go against him. While working tirelessly to make America great again there is no room for distraction. He would consider pardoning anyone who was being mistreated not Puffy Daddy.'

50's sentiments made headlines, and he responded to The Daily Beast's article with another post to IG on Sunday (June 1). 'I didn't say I would Nuke anything, I simply said I will make sure Trump is aware,' he clarified.
Fans had plenty to say about 50 being relentless in keeping his beef with Diddy alive. 'Your biggest mistake in life is making 50 your opp,' one person wrote in his comment section.
Billboard has reached out to Diddy's team for comment.
On Friday, Trump was asked about potentially pardoning Diddy if the mogul ends up getting convicted in his case, which he's currently on trial for. The president detailed how he and Diddy used to be friendly, but that changed since entering the political realm.
'I haven't spoken to him in years,' Trump said. 'He used to really like me a lot. I think when I ran for politics, that relationship busted up. … I would certainly look at the facts. If I think somebody was mistreated, whether they like me or don't like me, it wouldn't have any impact on me.'
50 hasn't taken his foot off the gas when it comes to continuously trolling Diddy, who remains behind bars during his trial. The Queens icon even posted what appeared to be himself rocking an AI-generated 'Free Diddy' T-shirt while at an NBA game between the New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers last week.
Diddy is facing charges of sex trafficking and racketeering. His trial is expected to last into July, and Combs could be sentenced to life in prison if found guilty on all charges.Best of Billboard

Russian drones and missiles target Ukrainian city of Kharkiv
A large Russian drone and missile attack has targeted the city of Kharkiv in Ukraine, killing at least three people and injuring 21, local Ukrainian officials said. The Russian barrage – the latest in near daily widescale attacks by Moscow – included deadly aerial glide bombs that have become part of fierce Russian attacks in the three-year war. Kharkiv's mayor Ihor Terekhov said the attack also damaged 18 blocks of flats and 13 private homes. Citing preliminary data, he said Russia used 48 Shahed drones, two missiles and four aerial glide bombs in the attack. The intensity of the Russian attacks on Ukraine over the past weeks has further dampened hopes that the warring sides could reach a peace deal soon – especially after Kyiv recently embarrassed the Kremlin with a surprising drone attack on military airfields deep inside Russia. The attack also came after US President Donald Trump said his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, told him Moscow would respond to Ukraine's attack on Sunday on Russian military airfields. It was also hours after Mr Trump said it might be better to let Ukraine and Russia 'fight for a while' before pulling them apart and pursuing peace. Mr Trump's comments were a remarkable detour from his often-stated appeals to stop the war and signalled he may be giving up on recent peace efforts.

Russia won't let Ukrainian forces rest until Putin's demands are met – Russian deputy foreign minister
Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov has stated that Moscow will not allow the Armed Forces of Ukraine to "use any pause to rest and regroup" without "eliminating the root causes of the conflict". Source: Ryabkov in an interview with Kremlin-aligned Russian news agency TASS Details: Ryabkov emphasised that US President Donald Trump's return to the White House has become a "reason for cautious optimism" in Russia regarding the normalisation of relations with the United States. He said that Russian leader Vladimir Putin during phone conversations with Trump "confirmed the basic directive on the necessity to eliminate the root causes of the conflict within the framework of political and diplomatic efforts". Ryabkov noted that if the Kremlin's conditions are not met, Russia will act to prevent the Armed Forces of Ukraine from taking advantage of "any pause to rest and regroup". According to him, the Kremlin's position is well known to Washington and threats of sanctions will not change it. "It is strange that hotheads in the US Senate, who have lost their last remnants of common sense, are ignoring this reality. We will continue efforts to achieve the objectives of the special military operation [Russian propaganda term for the war in Ukraine – ed.]. Thus, the decision and the choice are up to Washington, up to Trump," Ryabkov concluded. Background: On 3 June, Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of Russia's Security Council and former president of the Russian Federation, declared that the true purpose of the so-called peace talks with Ukraine in Istanbul is to ensure Russia's swift and complete victory.
