The star endorsements are bound to trickle in and Tina Knowles, Beyoncé’s mother, has publicly given her stamp of approval with an endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris for POTUS.
Knowles made her support on Instagram known shortly after President Joe Biden announced he would not seek reelection. Like many to follow, we’re sure.
The celebrity mother of Queen Bey, posted a photo with Harris, accompanied by a caption expressing her excitement. Here’s the caption:
“New, Youthful, Sharp, energy!!!! You asked for it and our President Biden did what was best for the country! Putting personal ego, power, and fame aside. That is the definition of a great leader. Thank you, President Biden, for your service and your leadership. Go Vice President Kamala Harris for President.” She concluded with, “Let’s Go #kamala2024.”
Get this, Knowles shared a post from Hues and Culture that defended Harris against recent criticism, citing Malcolm X’s words:
“The most disrespected person in America is the Black woman.” The post praised Harris’s qualifications and urged respect and support for her candidacy: “Kamala’s got the credentials — from her political grind to her college smarts — not to mention no felonies on her record, which can’t be said about some of her opponents. She’s out here proving she’s more than qualified. It’s time we lift her up and give her the respect she deserves.”
Invoking brother Malcolm, okay – we see you.
Harris and Knowles share a connection beyond politics; last summer, Harris attended Beyoncé’s Renaissance concert near Washington, D.C., after receiving gifted tickets from the superstar.
ICYMI, President Biden’s just withdrew from the 2024 race after weeks of pressure and speculation from well, everyone who’s anyone within the political spectrum of pundits. In his announcement letter, he stated, “I believe it is in the best interest of my party and my country for me to stand down and to focus solely on my duties as President for the rest of my term.”
Maybe Queen Beyoncé is next? We can only dream …
