Sean Combs, known as Diddy, was arrested on Monday, according to a person with knowledge of the investigation.

Diddy's attorney, Marc Agnifilo, issued a statement saying, "We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office."

Here we fucking go. We’re about to find out how far down that rabbit hole goes.

The right wingers get almost everything wrong, but I 100% believe that the 1% in America are into all kinds of fucked up shit. The rule of law has failed, and their money and power has insulated them from consequences.

Went full deep dive when epstein was going on. Agreed.

Ghislanes dad getting a funeral with mossad present hmmmm

Very interested to see what comes of this.

[-] superkret@feddit.org 16 points 1 month ago

Don't turn this into "The Jews are behind it all".

[-] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 43 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Dont turn "the Mossad" into "the Jews" because thats racist af. Israel and its state arms are behind many horrible things that shouldnt be conflated with non zionist Jews.

[-] TheBat@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

I didn't know Diddy, Cosby, Musk, Trump were Jewish...

[-] masterofn001@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Not 'the Jews' but the israelis.

Israeli gov intelligence, NGO firm NSO (pegasus virus), etc have dirt on everyone, I'm sure.

Epstein and the Maxwell family were mossad op(erative)s

Edit: from my reply below:

https://7news.com.au/the-morning-show/jeffrey-epstein-was-a-mossad-spy-says-investigative-journalist-dylan-howard-c-595812

https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/jeffrey-epstein-steven-hoffenberg-intelligence-agencies-spy-1197708/

Four separate sources told me — on the record — that Epstein’s dealings in the arms world in the 1980s had led him to work for multiple governments, including the Israelis.

[-] Microw@lemm.ee 8 points 1 month ago

Except there is literally no evidence for Epstein being an Mossad op. People are pulling that solely out of the relationship of Maxwell sr to the Mossad.

[-] Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

There's evidence of Epstein getting a plea deal for being an FBI informant.

Epstein had hidden cameras in his houses.

Epstein had hard drives and CDs labeled with Young [Name] + [Name].

And you can't just dismiss Epstein => Ghislaine Maxwell => Robert Maxwell => Mossad.

Epstein obviously gained his wealth by dealing in kompromat. What we don't know is the level of state sponsorship.

Lord no.

Rich people have connections to states. He specially appears to have been a mossad agent.

Not trying to insuate that junk about jews controlling the world.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Speaking as a Jew- you're trying too hard.

It's known he used to work for them, so not really compelling conspiracy material. If you believe what Acosta said about epstein though, that's some gas.

[-] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

I mean, it's their first accusation because they are there when it happens. They're trying to get in front of the story and make noise so when the pictures of Epstein and Trump together get released, they can just hand wave it as Trump investigating Epstein even know there's never been anything like that released.

[-] 474D@lemmy.world 70 points 1 month ago

The fact that the Pro-Active acne commercial mascot has been the hip hop boogie man for decades is wild. This guy has assaulted and raped women and men, blew up kid cudis car to try and kill him, and is getting called out by Eminem for putting the hit out on Tupac. What the actual fuck.

[-] mars296@fedia.io 42 points 1 month ago

I had never heard about him blowing up Kid Cudi's car

[-] 474D@lemmy.world 43 points 1 month ago

It was part of Cassie's lawsuit and Kid Cudi confirmed it. Yeah it's nuts.

Wait, you can just take somebody into custody when they're indicted? 🤔

[-] PriorityMotif@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

Indictment means that a grand jury have decided to charge you with a crime. The judge puts a warrant out for your arrest.

[-] undergroundoverground@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Diddy only fits 2/3 of the criteria for that

Sean Combs, known as Diddy

Also known as P. Diddy, Puffy, Puff Daddy...

Probably no surprise he's been arrested with all the aliases.

[-] piecat@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

Add P Diddle to the list

Diddy did do it

[-] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 22 points 1 month ago

Reads comments about how Sean Combs aka Diddy is a piece of shit

Decides to read Sean's wikipedia page.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_Combs

Yup, Sean Combs is a massive piece of shit.

[-] hopesdead@startrek.website 21 points 1 month ago

Correct me if I am wrong, I remember he was associated with Chris Brown, helping spotlight them.

Anyone associated with Chris Brown is not in my book, a good person.

[-] whostosay@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

this roach of a person is much much worse than chris

[-] some_guy 15 points 1 month ago

This month, Combs listed his home in Los Angeles that was raided in March for $61.5 million.

How ostentatious does a "home" have to be to cost that much? I mean, I can sort of imagine a ten million dollar home (from movies and television). I can't imagine this.

Having seen that hotel physical abuse footage, I'm glad they finally arrested him. Hope they nail him at trial. Sounds like there's a lot for which to get him.

[-] dustyData@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Real state is not just about the square area, or even the construction on top, but mostly about location. The cost is not about how big or luxurious of a mansion it is, but because it means living surrounded by other millionaires. If you scout the area, you notice it is one of the biggest houses around that place and the price, while outrageous even by the area standards, is not that far up next one, and about half of the most expensive one.

[-] BleatingZombie@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

I don't have the slightest idea, but I have seen small houses in the 10s of millions JUST because of the view

Ok so how about all those strikes his team levied on content creators?

[-] hddsx@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 month ago

He signed some great artists but it doesn’t change the fact that he’s a real piece of work

[-] buzz86us@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

He's not going nowhere he's staying right here he can't be stopped blew because he's a badboy for life

[-] sparky@lemmy.federate.cc 10 points 1 month ago

What is it with all these celebrities and powerful people committing sexual assault? It’s not that hard to find a consensual partner as a random ordinary guy, so how the fuck can you not find one as a rich and famous celebrity?

[-] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

It's the lack of consent that's the turn-on for them. See: Deshaun Watson.

[-] Nuke_the_whales@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Seeing as how these rappers are essentially a brand/corporation into themselves? Couldn't you take down someone like Diddy with a RICO case?

[-] badbrainstorm@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

I think it's time to watch the party die

[-] EarthShipTechIntern@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

Very informative, thanks! I totally understand what it's about now.

It actually works. I read over it

I’ve noted that you are a superior human who doesn’t waste your time with celebrity nonsense. I assume that’s what you were going for with this comment.
