Incoming Rapping Congressman Doubles Down on Diddy Hot Take: ‘I’m Not Scared to Say Things’

Constantino made the plea during a profane victory speech as Combs remains in federal custody after a 50-month sentence, reports said.

  • On Tuesday, November 3, congressional candidate Anthony Constantino urged President Donald Trump to "consider freeing" jailed music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs during his victory speech in Amsterdam, New York.
  • Constantino argued that Combs was a "historic New Yorker" and "job creator," though the music producer is serving 50 months following a July 2025 conviction for transportation to engage in prostitution.
  • Speaking on Capitol Hill on Tuesday, Constantino told TMZ he wanted to "make New York exciting again," though he admitted taking only "a quick look" at the trial proceedings.
  • President Trump previously denied a pardon request from Combs in October 2025, and federal records list the projected release date as February 6, 2028.
  • Incoming Representative Anthony Constantino takes his seat on January 3, 2027, and has promised to examine the damage to Combs' reputation during his legislative term.
