Why Did Milo Yiannopoulos Really Leave Ye’s Campaign?

by

As Ye’s most recent scandal continues to unravel, questions are being raised about the people he’s chosen to be a part of his circle. On the heels of an expected 2024 run for President, he has recently been spotted with some questionable company.

The disgraced rapper has surprisingly continued to make press runs with Nick Fuentes, a documented white supremacist. On top of being a live streamer, he is also a political commentator. 

British far-right political pundit Milo Yiannopoulos prepares to host the ‘Bishops Enough Is Enough’ rally at the MECU Pavilion November 16, 2021 in Baltimore, Maryland. Organized to coincide and run counter to the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops at the nearby Marriott Baltimore Waterfront, the conservative prayer meeting and convention was organized by the far-right Catholic news outlet Saint Michael’s Media, also known as Church Militant.

This is why he’s been around Ye lately – to assist in the Chicago native’s anti-Semitic-driven campaign. Subsequently, it’s no surprise that many of his recent comments, including telling Jewish people to forgive Hitler, are backed by Fuentes. 

Milo Yiannopoulos Backs Out

British alt-right political commentator Milo Yiannopoulos was another member of the 45-year-old’s campaign. Although his presence didn’t last long. He was fired from the campaign on Sunday (December 4).

Daily Beast reporter Will Sommer believes the only person really winning from all of these antics is Fuentes. According to his sources, Yiannopoulos could have left the campaign out of fear that Fuentes is gaining too much influence over Ye.

The white supremacist is “so vocally antisemitic in a way that some of these other figures are not,” says Sommer. “He’s absolutely thrilled by this whole thing.” 

On Tuesday (December 6), it was reported that Yiannopoulos charged $116,000 to the father of four’s team via an invoice. Overall, he believes he’s owed the money for his service working as an advisor and campaign consultor.

However, according to TMZ, they never actually had a financial agreement in place.

Sommer was the first to break the news of the split. “Milo Yiannopoulos has been fired from the Ye / Kanye entourage after a series of disastrous media appearances that saw the candidate praising Hitler,” he stated.

Ultimately, it’s scary to hear about the harmful influences that Ye is choosing to surround himself with. Do you think Yiannopoulos was right in removing himself from the campaign when he did? Comment below.

Alex Jones Unpacks Kanye West Interview, describing a “homoerotic Hitler obsession”

Alex Jones Discusses Kanye West Interview on Steven Crowders show

You know 2022 was a bizarre year when Alex Jones starts to call other people crazy, especially a formerly beloved hip-hop icon. However, he did just that, going on Steven Crowder’s YouTube show to discuss the fallout and his reactions from his interview with Kanye West from last week.

After showing some clips of the interview to provide for context, Crowder asks Jones if in “his wildest dreams” that he expected Kanye to make some of the outlandish statements that he did. Jones said that he did not, continuing that he didn’t give Kanye limits as to what he could talk about, but asked that he talk about “real issues,” to which Kanye didn’t obviously adhere,

Jones called Ye’s mask “creepy,” before stating that he didn’t believe that West understood World War II history, saying that Ye didn’t have “a fifth grade education about the Nazis.”

He called Nick Fuentes “baby Hitler,” saying that Fuentes and other supporters had a “homoerotic Hitler obsession,” claiming “it’s like some homoerotic, you know, thing over Hitler. That is, kinda, what’s going on. There’s this Hitler fetish”

Jones went on to say that Hitler was a pedophile, amongst other things, stating: “Hitler was horrible, screw Hitler, burn in hell Hitler.”

Later in the interview, Crowder’s co-host interjected to say that as a Christian, he was raised to “love the sinner, hate the sin,” but Ye (who claimed many times in the original interview with Jones that he was a devout Christian), failed to condemn any of Hitler’s sins in the hours-long interview.

While Jones said that he lost respect for Fuentes, he did describe Ye as more or less confused, saying that he wanted to meet with Kanye again to educate him on the atrocities of Hitler and the Nazi party during World War II.

Ye Isn’t The Only One In Tax Trouble As His Yeezy Clothing Brand Reportedly Owes A Big Bill In Caifornia

Kanye West recently tried to spin his current financial troubles as an opportunity to learn how his businesses really work, but he may be getting more of an education than he bargained for. While Kanye himself reportedly owes $50,000,000 in back taxes to the federal government (along with $200,000 a month to his ex Kim Kardashian for child support), one of his businesses is also apparently in hot water with tax authorities in California. NBC News reports that the fashion mogul’s Yeezy brand currently owes $600,000 in back taxes to the state, which is where it’s registered and Kanye resides.

According to records reviewed by NBC News, three tax lien warnings were sent to the business in July 2021, February 2022, and this past September. Tax law experts consulted by NBC said that more than just a sign of poor bookkeeping, the ignored notices could be an indicator that the Yeezy brand is not doing well financially, despite lucrative partnerships with both Adidas and Gap. Both partnerships were dissolved earlier this year after Kanye repeatedly made antisemitic remarks, prompting Forbes to reverse his billionaire status.

Since liens are only imposed after repeated communication attempts, it has to be assumed that Kanye’s business managers and accountants dropped the ball somewhere along the line. Of course, this would seem to be in line with the slapdash way in which he appears to conduct business from the broken rollouts of his 2018 Wyoming projects to his disastrous 2020 presidential campaign. Here’s hoping that all the muck in which he’s found himself finally inspires him to go get the help he pretty clearly needs.

Marvin Sapp Says Ye “Ain’t A Gospel Artist,” Calls His Inclusion “Unfair”

by

He’s hailed as one of the greatest Gospel artists of our time, and Marvin Sapp is sharing his thoughts on Kanye West. Despite the anti-Semitism backlash West has received, he continues to tout his Christian faith. For years, Ye has been making waves in Gospel circles, especially following the success of Jesus is King. The album won several Gospel awards and Christian artists praised his addition to the genre. However, Sapp offered a different take in a recent interview.

“I’m just looking at it differently,” he told VladTV. “I can absolutely sympathize with up-and-coming artists when you look at Billboard and Kanye’s whole record is in, like, one through 40 of our genre.”

“Do I think that it’s fair…now that I think about it, it’s not,” he continued. “I don’t think that it’s fair at all. And I think what ends up happening is it ends up eclipsing those of us who really do this for the genre and as a lifestyle.” He jokingly patted himself on the back for that observation and added, “Yeah, that was good, Marvin.”

“But, you know, it happens,” Sapp added. “All of these streaming platforms—if an R&B, Hip Hop artist comes along and they do something that’s Gospel oriented, they’ll bring it over into our genre, and we embrace them. But that’s not something that happens across genres.”

The singer-songwriter pastor used Lil Nas X as an example. Sapp brought up the Country Music Awards’ minimizing the “Old Town Road” icon because it was argued that his hit single didn’t belong in the genre. “If we did it, it would look like we not Christian.”

He noted that opposition or criticism of West from Christian circles doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with someone’s “religious position.”

“I think it does have something to do with making sure that the playing field is fair. Kanye ain’t a Gospel artist.”

Do you agree with Marvin Sapp about Ye’s inclusion in Gospel music culture?

UFC fighter Natan Levy Calls Out Ye, Gets Hit With Hate

by

Natan Levy had a big weekend in the UFC as he won a fight over Genaro Valdez by unanimous decision. Immediately after the fight, he decided to use his platform to take aim at none other than Kanye West. Levy is Jewish, and as one can imagine, he has taken offense to Ye’s rhetoric.

Overall, Levy’s message to Ye was a strong one. In the video clip down below, you can even hear him challenge Kanye to meet face-to-face. It’s a pretty strong statement, although Levy just wanted to speak up for his people. “Kanye West, if you’ve got a problem with me or my people, come see me, bro,” he said.

Natan Levy Gets Pushback

While speaking with TMZ this week, Levy revealed that he actually got quite a bit of hate following his statement. However, he made sure to note that he had also been hit with some love from the sports world. Needless to say, Levy’s statement mattered a great deal to people.

“My interview, most of the comments are antisemitic. Most of the comments say, ‘Hey, look, actually I think Kanye is right,’” Natan Levy said. “I’m always getting a lot of hate just for being who and what I am, which I’m fine with. It’s not fun, but, right now I’m getting more.

“I’m also getting a lot of love. There is also a lot of positive out there. I’m getting a lot of love. A lot of reinforcement. I’m getting a lot of friends, a lot of people who speak up. Post the video and share it and saying ‘stop the hate.’”

Despite the hate, Levy seems eager to get back into the Octagon. He currently has a record of 8-1, and he has the potential to ascend even higher within the UFC. Hopefully, he is able to make it happen.

Stay tuned to HNHH as we will continue to bring you the latest news and updates from around the sports world.

Reporter Falsely Claims Van Jones Apologized For Black Community’s Reaction To Ye

by

People of all backgrounds have come to defend the Jewish community against Kanye West’s antics, but Van Jones was accused of saying Black people weren’t doing enough. West has been on a controversial press run as he openly praises Adolf Hitler and Nazis. The rapper claims Jewish people need to forgive the genocidal dictator as Ye travels with white supremacist Nick Fuentes.

The internet reacted swiftly, with several Black leaders, influencers, and entertainers standing in solidarity with the Jewish community. They have denounced Ye’s rhetoric and deemed it inexcusable, but political reporter Jacob Kornbluh tweeted Van Jones suggested they have been “silent.”

Read More: Kanye West Tells Jewish People To Forgive Hitler

While giving a speech at the United Jewish Appeal Federation of New York event this week, it was reported that Jones apologized “for the silence of my community.” He allegedly said his “community” somehow permitted “an African American icon praising Hitler and Nazis” while acting “like we don’t know where that hatred came from.”

He was also reported as saying the “silence is over.” Adding, “You’re going to see a change going forward.”

After the news of Jones’s speech made its way to social media, people had questions for the political commentator. Some took issue with Jones suggesting that the Black community hasn’t abhorred West’s anti-Semitism. Others weren’t happy with him apologizing for Black people as a whole when it was Ye who offended the masses. Elsewhere, some people believed this created more division than unification. However, all was not how it seemed.

Kornbluh later returned to Twitter to clarify a few things. He stated that Jones didn’t apologize on behalf of the Black community as first said. “To the contrary: he stressed that many in his community are speaking out forcefully,” political reporter Kornbluh wrote. “In speech, he said he was sorry that he + others didn’t do more before Kanye. Apologies for any confusion.”

After the follow-up, people were angered that such a mistake was shared publicly to create a viral moment. Check out a few reactions below.

Ye & Kim Kardashian: Kanye Encourages Ex-Wife To Marry Tom Brady

by

Ye and Kim Kardashian might’ve just finalized their divorce but the internationally renowned artist believes his ex-wife should use her platform to “keep families together.”

Kanye provided plenty of mind-boggling moments during his recent press. Ye’s made his presence felt across right-wing platforms alongside notable alt-right figure, Nick Fuentes.

Last week, he appeared on Alex Jones’ InfoWars where he addressed everything from his presidential run, his love for Hitler, and of course, his divorce from Kim Kardashian. At one point, Ye told Kim to “come home to Christ” after shading Hulu and Disney.

“Hulu does not love you, Kim. Disney does not love you, Kim. Come home, Kim. Come home to Christ,” he said. “Go to God. Go to Jesus,” he continued before slamming Kim stating that she might not get married once again.

“Or, marry somebody great. Go marry Tom Brady, whatever you want to do but get married and use your platform as an influence to keep families together. Don’t let the devil use you,” he said.

Interestingly enough, Ye and Tom Brady have formed somewhat of an acquaintanceship with one another. During his tirade against Pete Davidson, Brady co-signed Ye’s post about venture capitalist Andreeson Horowitz. Prior to that, Ye and his son, Saint, met with Tom Brady, who played catch with the 7-year-old.

Kanye’s comments came just after Ye and Kim Kardashian finalized their divorce. Kim and Ye called it quits following a string of online outbursts. However, the process took time since the initial filing.

Ye will have to cough up $200K monthly for child support for their four children. At the same time, the two will have “equal access” to their children. However, Kim Kardashian and Ye will need a mediator if there are any issues regarding the set-up.

Despite all of the controversy surrounding Kanye’s name, it seems like Kim Kardashian isn’t allowing that to interfere with the time he spends with their kids. Ye and North spent some quality time on a daddy-daughter shopping trip, hours after finalizing the divorce. Then, he picked up his son Saint from school shortly after. Clearly, his presidential campaign and other shenanigans aren’t getting in the way of his ability to parent his four kids.

Van Jones Apologizes To Jewish Community For Ye’s Anti-Semitism

by

Van Jones is speaking up against Ye’s recent antics and anti-semitic comments. The political commentator has publicly apologized to Jewish people on behalf of the Black community.

Jones opened up about his thoughts on the hateful language being used by Ye, “an African American icon.” The comments were made during his appearance as a keynote speaker at the United Jewish Appeal Federation of New York.

Van Jones Makes His Apology

“You’re going to see a change going forward,” Jones promised to the crowd after apologizing “for the silence of my community.”

The CNN host ultimately called for unison. “The reason this country is a democracy at all is because Black and Jewish people have loved each other, and helped each other, and supported each other, and stood up for each other,” he continued.

Twitter Reacts

The comments have surprisingly caused some division on social media. Some Twitter users have chimed in to express their disapproval of the author’s comments. The majority of these users seem to disagree with Jones’ implication that black people have been otherwise silent on the topic.

“Van Jones really stood up there and blamed the whole black community for Kanye,” another user tweeted.

In the meantime, Ye has continued to dangerously defend Nazis. Rather than apologizing for his dangerous comments, he has decided to double down. In his latest interview with Proud Boys founder Gavin McInnes, the disgraced rapper continued to praise Hitler. “Jewish people can’t tell me who I can love and who I can’t love,” he spewed.

The Chicago native continues to be banned from social media platforms like Twitter for his unpredictable and hurtful behavior. As a result, mainstream platforms are being careful as to not allow this hate speech to continue on their outlets. The interview aired on Censored.TV, an alt-right streaming platform. White supremacist Nick Fuentes, who has been spotted out with Ye a lot lately, appeared beside him for the interview.

Kim Kardashian Granted Restraining Order Against Stalker Who Claimed he “Telepathically” With Her

Kim Kardashian granted restraining order against stalker

Celebrities’ DMs are probably full of people trying to get in contact with them. However, one man went the extra step and claimed that Kim Kardashian communicated back with him….but telepathically. This week, Kardashian was granted a restraining order against the man, who had also attempted to break into her permanent and temporary residences.

Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Adrian Gidaya Roxas granted Kardashian a permanent five-year restraining order against the man, Andre Persaud. In addition to the bizarre claims that Kardashian “communicated with him telepathically,” Persaud had allegedly tried to access Kardashian’s residence on three separate occasions in August 2022 and also attempted to access her hotel during a recent trip to New York.

Per court documents filed by Kardashian’s legal team, in addition to believing that the reality TV mogul had been “communicating with him telepathically,” Kardashian’s team also alleged that Persaud had also expressed increasing frustration that Kardashian had not responded to him. Kardashian stated that she worried about her safety after Persaud also claimed to own a gun.

Per the restraining order, Persaud is required to stay at least 100 yards away from Kardashian and is prohibited from contacting her directly or indirectly.

This is not Kardashian’s first time in court in recent weeks. In late November, Kardashian and Kanye West formally settled their divorce in divorce court.

[WATCH] Kanye West Demands That Jewish People To “Forgive Hitler”

by
kanye walks out of interview

Controversial music and fashion mogul Kanye West has ordered that Jewish people forgive Adolf Hitler, the German leader from the early 1900s who was credited with human extermination of over six million Jewish people across Europe.

West stood his ground when talking about his admiration for Hitler with Proud Boys founder

West stood his ground when talking about his admiration for Hitler with Proud Boys founder Gavin McInnes, telling Jewish people that they should just “let it go.”

“So, you love Jews, but you’re canceled for antisemitism because you also love Hitler, but you love everyone equally,” McInnes said.

“Yeah, Jewish people can’t tell me who I can love and who I can’t love,” Ye replied. “You can’t force your pain on everyone else. Jewish people, forgive Hitler today. Let it go, let it go, and stop trying to force it on other people. Goodnight.”

Kanye also tried to downplay the Holocaust by alleging abortion is “the Holocaust that were dealing with right now” and said that Jewish people are responsible for Hitler’s bad reputation.

Yeezy also said that he contends Jewish people “should work for Christians,” and if he becomes President in 2024, he would “hire a Jewish person in a second if I knew they weren’t a spy and I could look through their phone and follow through their house and have a camera all in their living room.”
