Trump calls for ‘major investigation’ into Kamala Harris campaign paying for celebrity endorsements

President Trump called for a “major investigation” into former Vice President Kamala Harris, accusing the failed presidential candidate of breaking the law by paying world-class artists to perform at rallies and endorse her.

The president slammed Harris for her celebrity-filled campaign events leading up to the November election — name-checking Bruce Springsteen, Beyonce, Oprah Winfrey and U2’s Bono.

“HOW MUCH DID KAMALA HARRIS PAY BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN FOR HIS POOR PERFORMANCE DURING HER CAMPAIGN FOR PRESIDENT?” the president asked in an all-caps tirade on his Truth Social.

“WHY DID HE ACCEPT THAT MONEY IF HE IS SUCH A FAN OF HERS? ISN’T THAT A MAJOR AND ILLEGAL CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION? WHAT ABOUT BEYONCÉ? …AND HOW MUCH WENT TO OPRAH, AND BONO???” Trump wrote Monday.

“I am going to call for a major investigation into this matter,” Trump said, calling it “a CORRUPT & UNLAWFUL way to capitalize on a broken system.”

Harris earned high-profile endorsements immediately after entering the presidential race last July, following then-President Joe Biden’s decision to drop out.

A-list celebrities, including Arnold Schwarzenegger, LeBron James, George Clooney and Taylor Swift, all threw their support behind her as several top artists also joined her onstage.

Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Christina Aguilera, Ricky Martin, Megan Thee Stallion, Bruce Springsteen, Jon Bon Jovi, 2 Chainz and ​​Mumford & Sons all performed at campaign events in an apparent effort to get low-propensity voters out to the polls.

Springsteen performed during an October rally at Temple University that also featured former President Barack Obama.

Three days earlier, Beyoncé made a highly anticipated appearance alongside Harris in Houston but didn’t sing, angering fans.

“This was a very expensive and desperate effort to artificially build up her sparse crowds. IT’S NOT LEGAL!” Trump said in his early morning post..

“For these unpatriotic ‘entertainers,’ this was just a CORRUPT & UNLAWFUL way to capitalize on a broken system,” he added.

On the eve of the election, Harris made a joint appearance with Oprah Winfrey at the base of the steps leading to the Philadelphia Museum.

Accusations grew after the election claiming the Harris had paid the celebrities after the campaign paid Oprah’s production company $1 million.

The Harris campaign has denied the payments.

Federal Election Commission rules, require campaigns to pay fair market value “for any ancillary costs” of performances — such as wages for band members and producers. 

There is no law explicitly stating political endorsements can’t be paid for, an FEC spokesperson told VerifyThis.com in October.

Harris’ celebrity endorsements and appearances were futile in the end, as Trump easily beat her and won his return to the White House.
