WASHINGTON — The White House accused TMZ Tuesday of fabricating a story that claimed President Trump could release disgraced rapper and producer Diddy from prison later this week.

“There is zero truth to the TMZ report , which we would’ve gladly explained had they reached out before running their fake news,” the administration said in a statement.

“The President, not anonymous sources, is the final decider on pardons and commutations.”

TMZ claimed in the Monday report that it had heard from sources that “a high-ranking White House official” said that Trump “is considering commuting Diddy’s sentence as early as this week.”
