Kanye West Faces Backlash After Antisemitic Rant and Defense of Diddy

The rapper's social media tirade included praise for Hitler, claims of dominion over his wife, and a call for Donald Trump to pardon Sean 'Diddy' Combs.

Kanye West posted dozens of inflammatory messages on X, expressing antisemitic views, praising Adolf Hitler, and declaring himself a Nazi.
He defended his wife Bianca Censori's revealing Grammy outfit, claiming he has 'dominion' over her and that her appearance required his approval.
West urged Donald Trump to pardon Sean 'Diddy' Combs, who is in jail awaiting trial on sex trafficking and racketeering charges.
The posts have drawn widespread condemnation from organizations like the Anti-Defamation League and the Jewish Committee, citing the danger of his rhetoric.
West's comments follow previous controversies, including antisemitic remarks in 2022 that led to the loss of major brand partnerships and public backlash.
