Ye is doubling down on his support of Sean “Diddy” Combs, as seen in his latest rant.

The artist formerly known as Kanye West has been sharing, and eventually deleting, countless tweets to his X account since last month with antisemitic, homophobic, and hateful commentary.

Some of the more shocking rants from the 47-year-old rapper included declaring himself a Nazi while praising Hitler, claiming he has hit women and having “dominion” over his wife Bianca Censori, and reiterating that “slavery is a choice.”

Ye showed support for Diddy, who was arrested last September on racketeering and sex trafficking charges, by pleading for President Donald Trump to free his “brother,” and releasing a Sean John collection on his Yeezy shop.

He was also slammed for selling what appeared to be a replica of the hoodie Cassie Ventura was seen wearing on the surveillance footage that showed her being physically assaulted by Diddy in 2016.

“Puff daddy my hero,” Ye wrote in a since-deleted tweet on Saturday. “This man was really having his way.” 

“Sometimes I read my tweets and think that’s too far Then I just go further,” he wrote hours later.

As reported by TMZ, Ye was recently spotted out in Los Angeles wearing a t-shirt with a swastika on it. 

The shirt was similar to one he briefly sold with the hate symbol on the Yeezy website last month before his Shopify store was taken down.
