Biography Flash: Nicki Minaj Faces Deportation Petition After MAGA Turn Sparks Political Firestorm

About
Nicki Minaj Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

Nicki Minaj has spent the last several days not in the studio spotlight but in the center of a political firestorm that may become a defining chapter in her biography. According to The Source, an online petition demanding that immigration authorities deport Nicki from the United States has surged past fifty three thousand signatures, explicitly citing her recent public support of President Donald Trump and her comments on gender and LGBTQ issues at Turning Point USAs AmericaFest conference in Phoenix on December 21. The petition is a backlash, not a legal action there is no sign of any official immigration move against her but it captures a moment where a superstar rapper is colliding head on with the culture wars, and it will almost certainly color how future biographers describe this phase of her career.

Politically, Nicki has only doubled down. Out reports that she has effectively gone full MAGA, reposting Trump White House content set to her own track Va Va Voom, applauding policies that include attacks on trans rights, and publicly thanking the administration for its stance on Christian persecution abroad. In the same vein, Local12 and other outlets note that in a series of posts on X she tore into California governor and 2028 presidential hopeful Gavin Newsom, mocking his support for trans kids and dramatically predicting the end of the road for his political career. Paste Magazine frames this as Nicki actively entering the culture war and courting the MAGA attention economy rather than merely making a one off statement.

On social media, that has meant less music talk and more ideological battle. Coverage from AllHipHop earlier highlighted her cryptic 3.27.26 album tease, widely read as a marker for her next studio project, but in the past few days her feeds and the headlines around her name have been dominated by politics, petitions, and polarizing commentary rather than traditional music promotion. There are, as of now, no verified reports of new business deals, tour announcements, or major public performances in the last couple of days the long term story is her transformation from chart topping rapper into an unmistakable political figure whose endorsements and critiques are embraced on the right and fiercely resisted by parts of her original fan base. Any rumors beyond that such as claims of imminent legal trouble or secret deals should be treated as speculation unless and until confirmed by primary outlets or official statements.
