At this point, it’s unclear how <a href="/profile/KanyeWest" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Kanye West</a> plans to move forward with the #YE2024 but he already coughed up tens of thousands of dollars. 



TMZ obtained FEC filings this week, which reveal some of Kanye 2020’s (<a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/452174-kanye-west-to-run-for-president-in-2024-milo-yiannopoulos-will-work-on-campaign" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Ye’s official presidential campaign</a>) expenses for his presidential campaign. Most notably, he dished out $40K to Milo Yiannopolis for “Campaign Wrap Up Services.” Milo also received an additional $9,995 from Kanye 2020 for “Domain Transfer.” Kanye 2020 dished out the payments just a week before December.

The controversial British right-wing figure also claimed Ye owed him $116K for consultation services. However, sources close to the artist said that it was never in writing.&nbsp;



Yiannopolis, alongside Nick Fuentes, were by Ye’s side throughout his controversial fall media appearances. The FEC filings also reveal that Ye&#8217;s campaign paid back Fuentes $14,719.87 for travel expenses. 



In early December, Yiannopolis announced that he <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/607412-milo-yiannopoulos-fired-from-kanye-wests-campaign-team-report" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">parted ways</a> with Ye in the middle of the artist’s anti-Semitic media run. 



“Ye and I have come to the mutual conclusion that I should step away from his political team,” Milo said in a statement. “I will continue to pray for Ye and all his endeavors.”

However, later reports claimed that Yiannopoulis<a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/608607-why-did-milo-yiannopoulos-really-leave-yes-campaign" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> left</a> due to Fuentes’ overpowering influence on Ye.



Ye has also reportedly parted ways with Fuentes. As a result, he’s certainly taken a step back from publicly discussing politics.&nbsp;



We’ll keep you posted on anymore updates surrounding #YE2024.
