Today, we’re talking about something so ridiculous, so unhinged — that if it weren’t coming from a former president, it might be laughable. But it’s not a joke.
🚨 Donald Trump is now accusing Beyoncé and Oprah Winfrey of breaking the law — and suggesting they should be prosecuted.
Let me repeat that: Trump wants to go after Beyoncé and Oprah — two of the most beloved public figures in America — while he hides from the Epstein scandal that’s threatening to blow up his campaign.
This isn’t just nonsense. It’s a political stunt — and a dangerous one.
Let’s break it all down. Be sure to like and subscribe — and today’s show starts right now.
Here’s the setup:
Donald Trump took to Truth Social this weekend and accused Beyoncé of violating campaign finance laws — claiming she was paid $11 million to endorse Kamala Harris at an October 2024 event in Houston. He also alleged that Oprah Winfrey received $3 million for “expenses” tied to her political support.
His claim? That these women broke the law — and that the Justice Department is covering it up.
Trump wrote:
“Beyoncé gets $11 million to endorse Kamala? Oprah gets $3 million for expenses? This is totally illegal, and nothing happens?!”
“If it were reversed — if I did it — I’d be indicted 12 times.”
Big celebrity endorsement. Big secret payment. And of course — Trump, once again, the so-called victim of a double standard.
But here’s the thing: None of this is true.
Let’s make this plain: There is zero evidence that Beyoncé received $11 million for her endorsement of Kamala Harris.
📰 As Newsweek and fact-checkers have confirmed:
There is no campaign filing, no donor record, no PAC disclosure, and no independent expenditure that lists Beyoncé receiving anything close to $11 million.
Beyoncé spoke at a public event and voiced her support. That’s free speech — not a campaign violation.
There’s no evidence that Oprah received any “$3 million for expenses” either.
These are fabricated numbers, designed to stoke outrage. And more importantly: Trump is misrepresenting how political endorsements work.
Here’s the law:
Public figures — including celebrities — are allowed to support candidates.
They can speak at events. Post on social media. Even help fundraise.
The only legal issue would be if the campaign paid them and failed to disclose it. But again, there’s no evidence of that.
So what is this really about?
This isn’t about Beyoncé. It’s not about Oprah.
It’s about Donald Trump’s panic over something much bigger: The Epstein Files.
📉 Trump knows the Epstein scandal is wrecking his campaign.
New reports say the DOJ privately told Trump in May that his name appears in sealed Epstein documents.
Public support for transparency on Epstein is overwhelming — with 97% of Americans saying they want the files released.
Congress is demanding answers.
Even Trump’s base is starting to crack.
So what does Trump do?
📣 He picks two high-profile, Black women…
🔥 Makes wild, unsubstantiated legal accusations…
📺 And throws it out to the media — hoping we’ll chase the bait.
But we’re not falling for it. Because this isn’t just a distraction. It’s a dangerous pattern.
Let’s zoom out:
Trump’s latest rant isn’t just a one-off attack. It’s part of a larger authoritarian playbook — where he uses criminal accusations not to uphold the law, but to target enemies, distract the public, and whip up outrage.
🚨 He did it with Barack Obama — falsely accusing him of “treason” over Russia.
🚨 He did it with Joe Biden — claiming the President “rigged” the justice system.
🚨 Now he’s doing it with Oprah and Beyoncé — popular public figures who dared to support Democrats.
It’s all about the same goal: creating a false equivalency.
Trump wants you to believe that everyone is corrupt — so that when he’s held accountable, it feels like just another day in the swamp.
But here’s the truth:
Beyoncé didn’t traffic minors.
Oprah didn’t cover up a sex ring.
Trump did fly on Epstein’s plane.
Trump’s name is in those files.
And Trump is the one trying to block their release.
That’s the difference. That’s what matters.
Why is Trump doing this now?
Simple: Because the walls are closing in.
He’s been indicted.
His poll numbers are sliding.
He’s losing the youth vote. He’s losing independents.
And the Epstein scandal is catching fire.
So he lashes out. He invents scandals. And he hopes the public will look the other way.
But it’s not working. Because the American people are seeing through the noise — and asking the real questions:
Why is Trump attacking celebrities while hiding from Epstein?
Why is Trump demanding prosecutions — but refusing transparency?
And why is a man under multiple indictments allowed to weaponize the law against his critics?
