Nicki Minaj breaks silence on social media after deportation calls
After people criticised Nicki Minaj for becoming a MAGA supporter, she has finally spoken out. Nicki has gotten a lot of criticism lately for moving to the right. She has been spotted with Erika Kirk, the widow of Charlie Kirk, calling Donald Trump a “role model,” and criticising Gavin Newsom for supporting transgender children.
The vocalist of Superbass has been quite outspoken about Donald Trump before. In fact, in 2010, she called him an example of double standards, saying that men like him are rewarded as “bosses” for the same forceful behaviour that gets women labelled negatively. It comes when ICE Barbie Kristi Noem goes into a frantic rage on live TV against ICE agent Jonathan Ross.
She then criticised Trump’s position on mass deportation in 2016 by saying, “Donald Trump want me go home,” in her song Black Barbies. But her position has altered a lot since then, in what some people term a “MAGA conversion.”
Nicki recently posted one of the president’s social media postings on how Christians are being persecuted in Nigeria. She also lauded the 79-year-old president while she was with Erika Kirk at AmericaFest. She remarked, “I have the utmost respect and admiration for our president.”
Since then, she has cut off many of her followers, and more than 120,000 people have signed a petition calling for her to be sent back to Trinidad and Tobago. This made her switch off her Instagram account, and she hasn’t spoken anything on social media since.
But she has suddenly spoken out. On January 18 at night, she went on X to criticize television journalist Don Lemon. “How dare you say that about Don ‘C–K Suckin’ Lemon?”I want the thug to go to jail! Nicki was angry at X, next to a picture of Chucky, and said, “He would never do that to any other religion. Lock him up!” She then swiftly reposted 1 minute later with the message “HNY,” short for “Happy New Year.”
This is happening at the same time that Don Lemon interviewed a preacher from Minneapolis for his YouTube programme, The Don Lemon programme. He spoke to Jonathan Parnell, the head pastor of Cities Church, during the interview. Parnell said that protesters against ICE had messed up his Sunday service.
He told Lemon to leave the building unless he planned to pray, calling the interruption “shameful.” A group of anti-ICE activists went inside the church to oppose David Easterwood, a church leader they said was the Acting Field Office Director for ICE in St. Paul. This led to the altercation.
The activists said their disturbance was “flipping the tables” for justice, while church authorities and later critics saw it as a breach of a hallowed place. This led to a Department of Justice enquiry into possible FACE Act violations.
