Trump Demands ‘Major Investigations’ Into Bruce Springsteen, Beyoncé, Bono and Oprah, Repeating Baseless Rumors Superstars Were Paid Off to Support Kamala Harris
President Trump has demanded 'major investigations' into Bruce Springsteen, Beyoncé, Bono and Oprah Winfrey for their support of Kamala Harris.
In his posts on his Truth Social app, Trump repeated baseless allegations about top superstars being paid to throw their support behind Harris last year, calling endorsements by Springsteen, Beyoncé, Bono and Oprah Winfrey on behalf of the Democratic candidate “corrupt and unlawful.” The president’s late-night social-media call for a criminal investigation followed news that Springsteen had spoken against administration policies at a second concert Saturday, after the rocker had come under attack from the president for speaking up at a previous show. He went on to single out Beyoncé some more, repeating an allegation — popularized by right-wing influencer Candace Owen, again, with no evidence — that the superstar singer was paid an eight-figure sum to briefly show up at a Houston rally for Harris last fall. The president’s initial tirades were set off by Springsteen appearing on stage in Manchester, England last week and saying, “In my home, the America I love… is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent and treasonous administration.” The singer gave a very similar speech at the second stop on his U.K. tour and seems likely to be offering a variation on it every night.
