50 Cent Shares Clips Of Diddy Insulting Donald Trump Amid Talk Of Potential Pardon
Diddy has sought every way out of his potential doom within the last year, and a recent report suggested that he may go to President Donald Trump for a pardon if he is convicted in his current trafficking trial. 50 Cent, the constant thorn in the controversial mogul's side, has now reminded him why Trump may not be willing to help him out by sharing a few old clips.
In October 2020, Puff sat down with Charlamagne Tha God for an interview ahead of the 2020 presidential election. He emphatically endorsed Joe Biden's candidacy and announced the launch of Our Black Party, a collective focused on advocacy for the African American community. Fif shared a portion of their conversation on his Instagram.
'If Trump gets elected, I really do believe in my heart there will be a race war,' the Bad Boy co-founder said in the clip. 'That's why this message is not just to Black people, you know what I'm saying? This message is to everybody. This man is really trying to turn us against each other and put us in a situation. America messed up.' In a second clip, the former REVOLT chairman took things even further and said, 'White men like Trump need to be banished.' Watch the clips below.
Time and different circumstances have seemingly changed Diddy's tune on Donald Trump, as he is reportedly 'angling' for a presidential pardon if he is convicted. If found guilty, the 55-year-old artist could face life in prison. 'He's willing to do anything to get out of jail,' a source who has been close to the 'Last Night' artist for a decade told Rolling Stone. 'He's always been this way. He's always going to do what he has to do to get out of a situation.'
'Brother Love' couldn't have found himself in this situation at a better time. Just last week, Trump pardoned YoungBoy Never Broke Again, who had been recently reprimanded for gun-related charges. YB had been released from federal prison in March and sent to home confinement in Utah due to credit for time served, which ended in April. With this pardon, he won't have to follow any probation terms, the worst of which was drug testing.
Trump also commuted Larry Hoover's federal life sentence for operating a criminal enterprise last week. The kingpin isn't completely off the hook, though; while he gets to leave the supermax facility in Colorado, he returns home to Illinois to continue serving his 150 to 200-year sentence for a murder he committed in Chicago in 1973. Nonetheless, Diddy may find himself needing Trump's help at the most opportune time.
This past Friday (May 30), Donald Trump was asked about his willingness to help Diddy. 'I haven't spoken to him in years,' he told Fox News. 'He used to really like me a lot, but I think when I ran for politics, that relationship busted up, from what I read. I don't know, he didn't tell me that. But I'd read some … nasty statements in the paper all of a sudden.'
The 78-year-old President admitted that he had to keep the United States in mind when considering what to do with Diddy's personal affairs. 'You know, it's different,' he said. 'You become a much different person when you run for politics, and you do what's right. I could do other things, and I'm sure he'd like me, and I'm sure other people would like me, but it wouldn't be as good for our country.'
Ultimately, he didn't have a final answer on what he would do at the time. 'It's not a popularity contest, so I don't know,' he admitted. '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.'

What Happened to Yulissa on 'Love Island USA'? Here's What We Know
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Yulissa Escobar's sudden exit from Love Island USA during the second episode of Season 7 has stirred speculation among fans. The departure, shown without context or explanation, left her co-stars and viewers in the dark. The twist was revealed with show narrator Iain Stirling announcing "Yulissa has left the villa" about 18 minutes into the show, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Yulissa, who had been coupled up with Ace Greene, was then noticeably absent from the villa. What we know What the show didn't mention—but what fans already knew—was that Yulissa had come under fire online after old podcast clips surfaced revealing a use of racial slurs. In the recordings, which spread across social media as the show launched on Tuesday night, Yulissa can be heard using the N-word multiple times while discussing past relationships, as first reported by TMZ. Newsweek has contacted both Yulissa and Peacock via email for comment. Yulissa Escobar (left) exited "Love Island USA" in the show's second episode of Season 7.

Episode 2 delivered on the drama promised in the season premiere, picking up right where host Ariana Madix left viewers hanging—with the introduction of two new Bombshells, Cierra Ortega and Charlie Georgiou. After a round of raised hands from interested Islanders, Cierra and Charlie each selected one contestant for an overnight hideaway date: Nicolas Vansteenberghe and Chelley Bissainthe. Sparks flew, with Nicolas and Cierra sharing a kiss. The villa also saw its first moments of tension. Jeremiah Brown confronted Huda Mustafa over whether she kissed another contestant during a game. After clearing the air in the morning, their relationship appeared back on track. Meanwhile, Taylor Williams and Olandria Carthen navigated a similar hiccup with ease when she admitted to kissing Ace Greene. As the day progressed, the Bombshells made their rounds, getting to know the rest of the cast. Jeremiah stayed loyal to Huda, despite a chat with Cierra, and Belle-A Walker gracefully handled Nicolas breaking the news about his new connection.

Ex-Trump Aide Spells Out How Elon Musk Could Gain Ultimate Revenge On The President
Former White House communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin explained Wednesday why she believes tech billionaire Elon Musk could now actually 'tank Donald Trump's entire legislative agenda.' Griffin, a co-host on ABC's 'The View,' warned that Musk's vocal opposition to Trump's so-called 'big, beautiful' spending bill could sway Republicans in Congress, especially those worried about the consequences to their seats if they cross the world's richest person. Musk recently slammed the bill as a 'disgusting abomination' for how it will hike the national debt. He had previously staked his reputation on slashing federal spending in his now-ended role running Trump's unofficial Department of Government Efficiency. Trump, for now, has remained silent on Musk's criticism. Griffin, who served in the Trump administration during his first term, noted how the bill has measures on energy, border security and extends Trump's tax cuts. 'If Republicans decide, 'Oooh, we don't want to get on the wrong side of Elon,' that is what Donald Trump is banking it all on,' she continued. 'And that is kind of devastating for his administration.' 'On the flip side, those Republicans, if you're in a House district, you're like, 'I'm afraid of Donald Trump,' but Elon Musk, because of the dark money system we live in, he can come in and primary you by just pouring millions and millions into your race.' All Musk needs to do, she suggested, is 'peel off a handful of Republicans' to tip the balance of power in the House.
