Beyoncé’s mother Tina Knowles took to social media on Wednesday to share some positivity and commit her family into God’s hands after Kanye West posted negative comments about her daughter and Jay-Z’s twin children Sir and Rumi Carter. 

“Corny joke, time! it’s hard to remain positive and classy in the face of ignorance and evil,” the 71-year-old captioned, per US Weekly. “But I know that no weapon formed against me or my family shall prosper.???????? This battle is not mine, but the Lords, I know that God has got this.”

Going by her caption, Knowles also shared her corny joke. “What happens when a snowman throws a tantrum? He has a meltdown,” she said. “Y’all know that’s funny!”

Kanye has largely been in the news in recent times for all the wrong reasons. On Tuesday, the rapper and fashion designer went for his former collaborator Jay-Z and his wife Beyoncé’s 7-year-old twin children. 

Kanye in his since-deleted post on X appeared to cast doubts about Sir and Rumi Carter’s mental capacity. The 47-year-old, who shares four children with his ex-wife Kim Kardashian, however, later rendered an apology.

“I LOVE JAY Z AND I DO FEEL BAD,” he wrote before trying to explain why he supposedly fell off with Jay-Z. “HOV [Jay-Z] NOT COMING TO MY FIRST WEDDING  HIM PUTTING KENDRICK ON THE SUPERBOWL OVER ME OR EVEN US NEVER BEING INVITED TO SH*T,” he added. 

“TAKING JABS ABOUT MY RED HAT ON DONDA I FELT LIKE BOTH HIM AND HIS WIFE COULD HAVE HELPED ME HAVE MORE LEVERAGE WITH MY KIDS,” Kanye said about his child custody issues with Kardashian.

Kanye, however, ended his post with some strong words: “THEY COULD HAVE USED THEIR CULTURAL POSITION TO NOT JUST WATCH THE KARDASHIANS RUN ME OVER. SH*T HURTS  SO F*CK BOTH OF THEM CAUSE WHEN I NEEDED THEM IT WAS F*CK ME.”

Kanye has been largely vocal about his custody issues with Kardashian. However, his conduct on social media could cause his ex-wife to file for full custody of their four children, US Weekly reported.

“She is in a very tough position when she really has to coparent with him,” an insider said about Kardashian’s state. “Right now he is very distracted and she does not want to say anything bad about him, but the safety of her kids is what is [motivating this consideration].”

Another source also told the news outlet that Kardashian is concerned about their children’s welfare as Kanye’s online shenanigans could “create problems” for the minors.
