50 Cent to discuss Sean 'Diddy' Combs' pardon with US President Donald Trump: 'I would make sure he is aware...'
50 Cent
has revealed plans to speak directly with US President
Donald Trump
regarding the possibility of a presidential pardon for music mogul Sean Diddy Combs, currently facing serious charges in a sex trafficking case.
The In Da Club rapper took to social media over the weekend to share his intentions following Trump's recent remarks in a televised interview, where he said that he would "consider" pardoning Diddy.
50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, took to his social media handle to post, "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."
He went on to add, 'He 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.'
The statement quickly circulated online, with some outlets interpreting his remarks as a call for Trump to block a possible pardon for Diddy. However, 50 cent clarified that he simply wants to express his personal views and "inform" the president.

Reposting a headline of an article claiming he 'plans to nuke' the musician's chances of getting pardoned, the rapper retorted, 'I didn't say I would nuke anything, I simply said I would make sure Trump is aware.
'
50 Cent has been openly critical of Diddy in recent months, especially following his arrest in September 2024 as part of an ongoing federal sex trafficking investigation. The case has seen multiple witnesses testify, including a former assistant adding to the mounting allegations.
Despite the charges, Trump hinted he may be open to pardoning Diddy, depending on how the case unfolds. Trump told reporters in the Oval Office this week, 'Nobody's asked, but I know people are thinking about it.' The president added: 'First of all, I'd look at what's happening, and I haven't been watching it too closely…I haven't seen him. I haven't spoken to him in years.'
Besides taking shots at Diddy, 50 Cent has also been taking to his handle to troll rapper Jay-Z for his association with the musician.

Trump's ‘Big, Beautiful Bill' will soon become law. Republicans who tore into it now need to hawk it to voters
Trump praised the bill at an event in Iowa, while House Speaker Mike Johnson called it one of the most complex and significant pieces of legislation in US history. President Donald Trump's wide-ranging domestic policy bill, passed by Congress this week, is facing growing criticism over its planned cuts to Medicaid. The bill, which is is now just hours away from becoming law, includes nearly $1 trillion in Medicaid reductions over a decade, a move Democrats are using to launch early attacks ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. For months, some Republican lawmakers had raised concerns. North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis said the cuts were 'inescapable,' while Missouri Senator Josh Hawley said targeting Medicaid was 'a mistake.' Nebraska Representative Don Bacon had earlier said he would not back a bill with over $500 billion in cuts but explained he ended up supporting it due to other tax and defence provisions.

Trump's domestic policy bill draws fire over Medicaid cuts, as democrats begin campaign blitz
President Donald Trump's wide-ranging domestic policy bill, passed by Congress this week, is facing growing criticism over its planned cuts to Medicaid. The bill, which is is now just hours away from becoming law, includes nearly $1 trillion in Medicaid reductions over a decade, a move Democrats are using to launch early attacks ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. For months, some Republican lawmakers had raised concerns. North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis said the cuts were 'inescapable,' while Missouri Senator Josh Hawley said targeting Medicaid was 'a mistake.' Nebraska Representative Don Bacon had earlier said he would not back a bill with over $500 billion in cuts but explained he ended up supporting it due to other tax and defence provisions. Democrats are now highlighting those Republican warnings. 'It's 2018 all over again,' said Democratic Representative Jared Golden of Maine, who holds a seat in a pro-Trump district. 'I would never vote for these Medicaid cuts. Never,' Golden told CNN. A June poll by Quinnipiac University found that 53% of voters opposed the bill. While Republicans argue the cuts mostly involve new work requirements for able-bodied adults without dependents, Democrats say millions could eventually lose coverage. The Congressional Budget Office estimates around 12 million people could lose health insurance by 2034 due to changes in Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act. Trump praised the bill at an event in Iowa, while House Speaker Mike Johnson called it one of the most complex and significant pieces of legislation in US history. Speaking after signing the bill, Johnson said it was among 'the top two or three' bills ever passed in Congress, according to CNN.

Family of Ganjam worker anxious after 3 Indians abducted in Mali
1 2 Berhampur: Family members of a 28-year-old Ganjam worker are anxious that he might be among the three Indians abducted from a cement factory in Kayas, Mali, on July 1. Since July 1, the family is unable to communicate with P Venkatraman, who is working at the Diamond Cement Factory since Nov last year after being recruited through a Mumbai-based company, and fears he might be among those abducted. His mother, P Narasama (50), of Samarajhol village in Ganjam district's Hinjili, last spoke to him on June 30. "I am very worried about my son's fate and request the govt to ensure his safe return. His phone number is unreachable now," she told reporters. On Thursday, Narasama received a call from her son's employer stating he was under police custody. However, she later learned through social media about the abduction. She filed a report with Hinjili police on Friday evening and appealed for intervention. The ministry of external affairs (MEA) has expressed serious concern over the abduction of Indian workers. While no group has claimed responsibility, Al-Qaeda affiliate, Jama'at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin (JNIM), claimed responsibility for multiple coordinated attacks across Mali on the same day. "The govt should take immediate steps for Venkataraman's safe return," said M Ram Krushna, a relative. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Venkatraman's sister has rushed home from Hyderabad after learning about the incident.
