Spiritual adviser and bestselling self-help author Marianne Williamson is making a second straight run for the White House and taking aim at President Joe Biden.
Williamson, who called for reparations and a Department of Peace as part of her long-shot campaign for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination, declared she plans to launch her candidacy for president in 2024 in an exclusive interview with Medill News Service on Thursday.
"I wouldn’t be running for president if I didn’t believe I could contribute to harnessing the collective sensibility that I feel is our greatest hope at this time," Williamson said.
With many leaders in the Democratic Party from both the establishment and progressive wings saying they’ll support Biden, who’s expected in the coming weeks or months to announce his reelection campaign, Williamson becomes the first Democrat with a national following to primary challenge the 80-year-old president.
"Apparently Biden's going to run on a message that the economy is getting stronger. I think that speaks to the disconnect between the analysis of party elites versus the struggle of everyday Americans," Williamson said in a recent interview with Politico.
"As America gears up for the 2024 presidential election, I’m preparing for an important announcement on March 4th in Washington DC," Williamson advertised.
During the 2020 cycle, Williamson was an unconventional candidate who preached the politics of love. She emphasized "six pillars for a season of moral repair," including economic justice. She proposed creating a Department of Children and Youths and a Department of Peace, and she pushed for reparations for the descendants of African-American slaves. Among her unorthodox acts was holding a meditation session while campaigning in New Hampshire.

She’s going to be pushing reparations for slavery?
I wonder if reparations will be some sort of litmus test for Democrats?
And what’s with this talk of economic Justice? Is that another way of talking about socialism?

The WH has issued their official response:
“We could run a senile pervert and steal beat her....”

She ran in 2020 or 2016. I remember this name as a <1% also-ran in a recently presidential election.
Big yawn.
A new age nut case egotist; bring it on—would love to see her in a debate: a nut case and a demented pedophile. Wow!
Didn’t she drop out four years ago after a few hours?
Yep.
It's not even really that deep, it's really all just about 'Get Whitey'.
Does Don Lemon have an opinion about her prime time?
It's the "crazy eyes" - it's all I can think about....
Very pretty for an older broad. You’d prefer Hillary?
The scary thing, she’s more fit to serve.
