Ye, the rap and fashion mogul formerly known as Kanye West, sparked new controversy Saturday night with a tweet pledging to take on “Jewish people” after finding himself restricted from his 18-million-follower Instagram account earlier in the day.
Ye, who spent the entire week in a media firestorm after appearing at a Paris fashion show with The Daily Wire’s Candace Owens wearing matching “White Lives Matter” shirts, asked Mark Zuckerberg, whose Meta owns both Facebook and Instagram, how he could be locked out of his Instagram account. But it was a tweet some 24 hours later that raised eyebrows – and accusations of anti-Semitism.
