Speaker 1: Now let's get to the latest one showing Diddy Comb's
Speaker 1: federal sex trafficking and racketeering trial. A former assistant, testifying
Speaker 1: under the pseudonym Miya, was back on the stand facing
Speaker 1: cross examination for combs defense team. Meanwhile, Curtis fifty cent
Speaker 1: Jackson spoke out this weekend about the trial and any
Speaker 1: potential part in Combs could receive from President Trump. Fiddy
Speaker 1: went to social media following these comments from President Trump
Speaker 1: last Friday when asked about Ditty in the trial, take
Speaker 1: a listen, please.
Speaker 2: Backing and listen to the apprentice. You mentioned once in
Speaker 2: twenty twelve that Ditty was a good friend of yours
Speaker 2: back then. He has since found himself in some very
Speaker 2: serious legal trouble. That would you ever consider pardoning him?
Speaker 2: I well, nobody's asked. You had to be the one
Speaker 2: to ask, Gator, but nobody's asked. But I know people
Speaker 2: are thinking about it. I know they're thinking about it.
Speaker 2: I think people have been very close to asking. First
Speaker 2: of all, I look at what's happening, and I haven't
Speaker 2: been watching it too closely, although it's certainly getting a
Speaker 2: lot of coverage. I haven't seen him. I haven't spoken
Speaker 2: to him in years. He used to really like me
Speaker 2: a lot, but I think when I ran for politics,
Speaker 2: he sort of that relationship busted up from what I read.
Speaker 2: I don't know. He didn't tell me that, but I'd
Speaker 2: read some little bit nasty statements in the paper. All
Speaker 2: of a sudden, you know, it's different. You've become a
Speaker 2: much different person when you run for politics and you
Speaker 2: do what's right. I could do other things, and I'm
Speaker 2: sure he'd like me, and I'm sure other people would
Speaker 2: like me, but it wouldn't be as good for our country.
Speaker 2: As we said. Our country's doing really well because of
Speaker 2: what we're doing, so I can't It's not a popularity contest,
Speaker 2: so I don't know. I would certainly look at the facts.
Speaker 2: If I think somebody was mistreated, whether they like me
Speaker 2: or don't like me, it wouldn't have any impact on me.
Speaker 1: Now Here's what Fitty posted on Instagram this weekend after
Speaker 1: those comments. Quote, Donald doesn't take well to disrespect and
Speaker 1: doesn't forget who chooses to go against him while working
Speaker 1: tirelessly to make America, there is no room for distraction.
Speaker 1: He would consider pardoning anyone who was being mistreated, not Diddy,
Speaker 1: Colmbs said some really bad things about Trump. It's not okay.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna reach out so he knows how I feel
Speaker 1: about this guy. End quote. First of all, let me
Speaker 1: say this because I love me some fifty cent. I
Speaker 1: love what he's doing. I love what he's doing on
Speaker 1: Stars Power you know the sequels PowerBook Ghosts, which is
Speaker 1: my favorite PowerBook Force, which Joseph Sikora plays Tommy Egan.
Speaker 1: I love that. I love Raising Canaan. You saw what
Speaker 1: I had. You know you saw I had the star
Speaker 1: Patina Miller's on the show. She's phenomenal. I love that show.
Speaker 1: I love everything that fifty cent is doing, even though
Speaker 1: he's still I'm sure he's gonna still make some music
Speaker 1: or whatever. But I just think he's phenomenal. I think
Speaker 1: he's phenomenal. His executive produced. I think he's an incredible talent,
Speaker 1: and I think he is the kind of person you
Speaker 1: do not want against you, because this brother will troll
Speaker 1: you forever. I mean, he will hit you where it hurts.
Speaker 1: Ain't no doubt about that, and he clearly has no
Speaker 1: love for Diddy. My whole point is Trump's willingness to
Speaker 1: pardon Ditty potentially whatever. Fifty Cent feels it shouldn't be
Speaker 1: based on whether Trump what Diddy has said about Trump.
Speaker 1: It should be based on whether Trump that thinks the
Speaker 1: charges against him are excessive, the crime that he's being
Speaker 1: accused of, If he were to be committed of those
Speaker 1: federal crimes, how valid they are, and whether or not
Speaker 1: that time served comes into consideration. That clearly is not
Speaker 1: going to be the case. I mean, if it's one
Speaker 1: of those situations where President Trump ended up pardoning P Diddy.
Speaker 1: P Ditty's on trial now, he hasn't been convicted yet,
Speaker 1: he's been in jail for a few months, but with
Speaker 1: some of the things that he's been accused of, sex
Speaker 1: trafficking and racketeering, as the government continues to make its case,
Speaker 1: we got to hear what the defense has to say
Speaker 1: in response to those allegations, those charges, those assertions that
Speaker 1: the prosecution has made against him. Ultimately, if you want
Speaker 1: to look at him right now, clearly he's an individual
Speaker 1: that nobody wants to have anything to do with. When
Speaker 1: you consider the video and how it revealed how he
Speaker 1: was abusing, physically abusing his ex girlfriend Cassie Venturer. When
Speaker 1: you hear the assistant give her testimony. When you hear
Speaker 1: the things that folks have alluded to, when you hear
Speaker 1: about the details about what he coaxed Cassie Venturer into doing,
Speaker 1: these are very heinous, disgusting things, to say the least.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna even go into detail the heinous and disgusted,
Speaker 1: you know. And so when you look at it from
Speaker 1: that standpoint, you know, why are you thinking about pardoning
Speaker 1: him before he's even been convicted. Let him get convicted
Speaker 1: and if he's getting if he gets convicted, let him
Speaker 1: spend some time in jail, and then after that you
Speaker 1: want to consider pardoning him, your decision should be based
Speaker 1: on that, not on whether or not he he has
Speaker 1: said nasty things about the president. So and fifty cent,
Speaker 1: I would just like to know for fifty cent specifically
Speaker 1: what the beef is with Diddy, whatever that may be,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't follow it like that he
Speaker 1: does not like this man, he feels whatever it is
Speaker 1: that he feels about Diddy. This is not my lane,
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen. I don't follow the hip hop. I
Speaker 1: like my music. I like listening to hip hop, but
Speaker 1: I don't follow the storylines that come in sociald I
Speaker 1: know nothing of the history between fifty cent and Diddy,
Speaker 1: but Diddy has me wanting to find out. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: fifty Cent has me wanting to find out what that
Speaker 1: history is. Because most people would just not say anything
Speaker 1: you are saying. If Trump says what he says, all right,
Speaker 1: no matter what their feelings are, they ain't gonna get involved.
Speaker 1: Did fifty Cent don't give a damn? You don't give
Speaker 1: a damn. He literally is saying he's gonna reach out
Speaker 1: to Trump to remind Trump of the things that p
Speaker 1: Diddy has said about him for the soul express purposes
Speaker 1: of making sure that Trump doesn't part in Diddy any
Speaker 1: event that Diddy gets convicted of sex trafficking and racketeering.
Speaker 1: That's what fifty cent is wanted to do. And I
Speaker 1: gotta admit to you that's wild. Damn. You know you
Speaker 1: got an enemy there when a man wanted to go
Speaker 1: out of his way to contact the president, you know,
Speaker 1: and clearly he has some kind of inroads where he
Speaker 1: can get to President Trump so President Trump can hear him.
Speaker 1: He's basically saying, Yo, brother, need to go down. Brother,
Speaker 1: need to go down and stay down. That's what he's
Speaker 1: saying so, if did he didn't have enough problems, Having
Speaker 1: fifty cent on your ass is a problem. That's a problem.
Speaker 1: That's the only thing I can peel from it. At
Speaker 1: this moment in time, I would love for fifty cent
Speaker 1: to tell us what exactly is his disgust with Diddy,
Speaker 1: other than to discuss we all feel from the videos
Speaker 1: we already saw. It would be real interesting to see that.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, I'm just saying, m m mm hm
Speaker 2: Mm hm
