Donald Trump's rant about
Beyonce is raising eyebrows. During
a recent broadcast, CNN's
Brian Stelter pointed out how the Republican president accusing the music icon of taking $11 million to endorse
Kamala Harris in the 2024 election was a sign of more "autocratic actions" to come from Trump.

After Donald Trump claimed
Beyonce should be "prosecuted" for allegedly taking money to support Kamala Harris, Brian Stelter highlighted how dangerous the right-winger's "totally made-up claim" about the entertainer is. "Even though Trump isn't getting what he wants in these cases — he's not getting
Beyonce behind bars or NBC off the airwaves — it is still concerning to free speech and free press advocates to know that those are the ideas that he is sharing with his followers," the reporter said while emphasizing how it "potentially softens the ground for more autocratic actions in the future." Stelter noted how the former vice president only made a "small" $165,000 payment to the Destiny's Child member's production company. "The only thing Trump is missing is any actual crime," the television personality made clear. "There's no evidence of a crime here."

Donald Trump took to his Truth Social account to go after
Beyonce over her advocacy for Kamala Harris. "I'm looking at the large amount of money owed by the Democrats after the presidential election and the fact that they admit to paying, probably illegally, $11 million dollars to singer
Beyonce for an ENDORSEMENT (she never sang, not one note…)," he alleged. The politician also claimed
Oprah Winfrey and
Al Sharpton received payments from the left-wing politician. "Can you imagine what would happen if politicians started paying for people to endorse them. All hell would break out!" Trump continued. "Kamala and all of those that received endorsement money BROKE THE LAW. They should all be prosecuted! Thank you for your attention to this matter."

Beyonce proudly appeared at Kamala Harris' Texas rally in 2024 in hopes of getting her elected president. "I'm not here as a celebrity. I'm not here as a politician. I'm here as a mother," the vocalist told the crowd. "Your freedom is your God-given right, your human right."
