Billionaire Elon Musk claims he expressed his "concerns" to rapper and designer Ye about his recent antisemitic tweet after Ye was locked out for posting it.

Instagram had locked Ye—a rumored 2024 presidential candidate—out of his account after he posted an antisemitic conspiracy theory in screenshots of text messages with Sean "Diddy" Combs.


In response, Ye returned to Twitter after a long hiatus to accuse Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg of personally locking him out of his account after Instagram announced it locked him out for posts that violated its policies.

Ye also tweeted he'd go "death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE."

Musk welcomed his "friend" back to Twitter.

He posted his greeting in a comment on Ye's Zuckerberg call out.

Musk followed up with a comment saying he "expressed [his] concerns" about Ye's tweet.

Musk added he thinks Ye "took [it] to heart."

Musk's tweet and "talk" with Ye comes as the rapper faces considerable criticism for his antisemitism, misogynoir, Anti-Blackness and backlash for joining right-wing mouthpiece Candace Owens in wearing "White Lives Matter" T-shirts during his YZY Season 9 show during Paris Fashion Week.

The shirts are part of Ye's fashion line and several models of color were required to wear them during the show.

But Musk's tweet was not particularly well received given his previous complaints about Twitter's moderation rules and his argument the social media company needs to go private if it wants to become a platform for free speech.

Many called him out in response.



Musk has come under heavy criticism in recent months after he announced he was abandoning his deal to purchase Twitter for $44 billion.

Musk accused Twitter of misrepresenting user data, saying the company failed to respond to multiple requests for information on fake or spam accounts. He added he was terminating his bid due to a “material breach of multiple provisions” of the agreement.

Twitter sued Musk in an effort to get a court to enforce the deal.

After much back-and-forth, Musk has agreed to buy the company for the initially agreed upon price.

TikToker Speaks Out About Just How Difficult It Is To Get A Divorce In Mississippi—And Wow

While we're well into the 21st century, it's becoming increasingly difficult in the United States for women to execute what should be basic social rights, like getting a divorce. But states like Mississippi and most of the "Bible Belt" are making it practically impossible for people like Nurse Hadley Vlahos to fully separate from a former partner.

Though Vlahos is known on TikTok and YouTube for being a hospice nurse and wrote about end-of-life care in her New York Times bestselling book, The In-Between with How to Let Go to follow, she's now dedicating much more of her platform to documenting her three-year process of just filing for divorce, not including all that happened in the years before and in the year and a half since.

Trump's Bonkers Quip About What He'd Do If He Coached In The WNBA Just Resurfaced—And It's A Doozy

President Donald Trump is raising eyebrows again after a resurfaced clip showed him trying to bring NBA star LeBron James into the debate around transgender athletes while mocking the WNBA.

The WNBA has been at the center of controversy after Indiana Fever player Sophie Cunningham said she wants "to protect young girls in a locker room, or young girls in sport who shouldn’t have to go against biological men.” She called her beliefs "common sense," stressing that "it’s really important to protect children, and that’s little girls who are also involved in that category."

Former GOP Rep. Schooled With Hilarious Food Lesson After Griping About Mamdani's 'Suspiciously Green Bananas'

A former MAGA Republican Representative and co-founder of conservative political groups the Federalist Society and the Club for Growth, David McIntosh of Indiana, is being mocked across social media after sharing a post and video on X calling out New York City Democratic Socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani for his produce choices.

Last week, Mayor Mamdani held a press conference to share an update on the five—one for each borough—planned subsidized grocery stores for the city. Explaining the stores would only stock fresh essentials like produce, meat, eggs, and dairy, Mayor Mamdani provided further insight into how the program would work while not cutting into many of the items such as tobacco, beverages, snacks, and prepared foods that local bodegas most rely on for their profits.
