Incoming DOJ investigation?
On Saturday President Trump said the Democrats illegally paid to get the endorsement of Oprah, Beyoncé, Al Sharpton and others.
“Are the Democrats allowed to pay $11,000,000, $2,000,000, and $500,000 to get the ENDORSEMENT of Beyoncé, Oprah, and Reverend Al? I don’t think so! Beyoncé didn’t sing, Oprah didn’t do much of anything (she called it “expenses”), and Al is just a third rate Con Man. So what is going on here??? Totally against the law, and I have heard there are many others!!!” Trump said on Truth Social.
Recall that in October the Harris campaign announced that Beyoncé would appear AND PERFORM at a rally in Houston, Texas.
It was all a lie to build a crowd.
The pop star did NOT perform. She barely spoke for a few minutes and left.
“Beyoncé went up and spoke for a couple of minutes and then left, and the place went crazy,” Trump told a crowd in Michigan, per Fox News.
“They booed the hell out of everybody. They thought she was going to perform. What happened was my opponent got up and started speaking, and they booed the hell out of her. It’s crazy. They have to use people to get people to come, and then they send buses. We don’t send buses. Everybody comes. We’re just going to make America great again. It’s very simple.”
MSNBC treated it as breaking news when the Harris campaign announced that Beyoncé would appear AND PERFORM at a rally in Texas.

According to a report from The Washington Examiner on how the campaign burned through over $1 billion in funds, Oprah Winfrey’s Harpo Productions received $1 million in October for campaign-related services.
In return for this investment, Winfrey hosted a star-studded town hall and spoke at her final rally in Philadelphia before Election Day.
“We’re voting for values and integrity,” Winfrey told supporters at the rally. “We’re voting for healing over hate.”
It is so good to be with @Oprah for a town hall to speak directly with Americans about the issues on their minds in this election.

Kamala Harris’s failed presidential campaign reportedly funneled $500,000 to Al Sharpton’s nonprofit, the National Action Network (NAN), just weeks before a lackluster interview with the professional race hustler on MSNBC.
According to a report by the Washington Free Beacon, Harris’s donation was part of a larger $5.4 million spending spree aimed at boosting her favorability among Black and Latino groups — a strategy that, as we know, fell flat.
Federal campaign finance records reveal Harris’s campaign issued two payments of $250,000 each to Sharpton’s National Action Network in early September and October. Just days after the contributions, Sharpton aired a video of Harris offering him birthday greetings, where she praised his “extraordinary leadership” and role as a “voice of truth.”
