The 2028 Democratic primary has already begun — and this time, the candidates aren’t trying to hide it. Potential contenders including former Vice President Kamala Harris and California Gov. Gavin Newsom are openly embracing — or at least acknowledging — their interest in a White House run. It’s a departure from the political gamesmanship that once defined presidential politics, when would-be candidates sought to intentionally cloud their intentions out of fear that acknowledging them could backfire. It also reflects the wide-open nature of the race, with no clear front-runner — or anointed figure — for the first time in years....

Former President Joe Biden reportedly wanted Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer to be his vice president but “had to choose” former Vice President Kamala Harris. An Atlantic article profiled the Democratic governor and potential 2028 presidential candidate on Sunday and reported how Biden considered Whitmer for his running mate in 2020, particularly after her pushback against President Trump. Though Whitmer was ultimately not chosen, the Atlantic claimed that Biden “wanted it to be Whitmer” and was pushed into picking Harris after the Black Lives Matter protests. “All of this attention seemed like it might add up to something, and by summer...

Former VP Kamala Harris on Friday teased her plans for the 2028 presidential election in an on-stage interview with the Rev. Al Sharpton in New York City, where she blasted President Trump as a “liar.” “I might. I’m thinking about it,” the Democrat replied when Sharpton asked her if she was going to run for president again. The room burst into applause at her response. The crowd favored Harris, the nation’s first black vice president. At one point, a person yelled, “run again.”

Former Vice President Kamala Harris warned that President Donald Trump must not be allowed to pick two “additional justices” for the Supreme Court, adding that Democrats “must be clear-eyed about what is at stake.”In a post on X, Harris — who lost the 2024 Presidential election against Trump, shared an article from the New York Times about how a “liberal organization” was “preparing a multimillion–dollar effort to oppose potential Trump Supreme Court appointees before they happen.”The New York Times reported that Josh Orton, who serves as “the president of Demand Justice,” predicted that “the project would cost $3 million to...

Former Vice President Kamala Harris drew a sharp rebuke from conservatives on social media Wednesday where she previewed President Donald Trump’s address to the nation on Iran. "He brought America into a war that people don’t want, he has put American troops in harm’s way, costs are rising by the day, and meanwhile he has done nothing to address the needs of the people of America," Harris posted on X before Trump’s Wednesday night speech to the nation, a speech Harris says in the video she "won’t be able" to watch. Harris predicted Trump would attempt to "claim victory" in...

Kamala Harris has been slammed for a bizarre text announcing she will swing across a raft of states in the Deep South. The expected 2028 presidential runner will take trips to North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Arkansas “to uplift Democrats and continue building our power in the South,” according to the message her campaign sent. More stops could be added during the summer and fall, CNN reported, following her appearances in the South to help raise funds for those state Democratic parties. Social media users tore into the announcement Tuesday. One said: “She’s literally the reason we have the...

An ex-security staffer for President Joe Biden who posed for pics with former VP Kamala Harris in front of a presidential jet was arrested for a chilling murder in San Francisco. Nation Wood, 25, was arrested Wednesday, just 24 hours after he allegedly shot and killed Samantha Emge, 22, a 2025 graduate of San Francisco State University, at a home in San Francisco’s Sunset District.

Kamala Harris is cutting California loose from her book tour, cancelling the remainder of her currently scheduled stops in the state. On Tuesday, the former presidential candidate pulled out of book tour stops for her memoir “107 Days” in Sacramento, San Diego and Anaheim. The appearances had been scheduled for next month. Ticketing company Ticketmaster refunded ticketholders and explained that the cancellations of “A Conversation with Kamala Harris” were due to a “scheduling conflict.” Harris’ last event had been in Oakland on March 3.

Kamala Harris has joined other far-left Dems by stating that she doesn’t support regime change in Iran. The former vice president posted her critique of Operation Epic Fury and President Donald Trump shortly after Saturday’s attack began. Harris described the attack as “a war American people do not want.” Her statement comes despite Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and 10 high-ranking leaders in his fortified compound, as well over 40 top Iranian security and regime figures, Israeli officials said.

Rights group ADF International has condemned Turkey’s rejection of a European Parliament resolution on the expulsion of foreign Christians, with critics calling the policy an “attack on Christians” and urging authorities to respect due process and religious freedom. The European Parliament resolution focused on cases involving at least 300 foreign Christian pastors, missionaries and their families who were deported or denied re-entry under administrative measures known as the N 82 and G 87 security codes.

There is a cynical reason why Democrat leaders keep illegal aliens in the country. It is not for humanitarian reasons. The net effect of increases in both legal and illegal immigration in the 2020 Census shifted 17 House seats and 17 Electoral College votes. It resulted in a net gain of 14 seats in blue states. Ten seats shifted from red states and four from battleground states. It’s partly due to districts with high percentages of noncitizens who lean heavily Democrat. “Of the 24 districts where one in five adults is not an American citizen, twenty were won by a...

I warned you! It’s kind of hilarious, but a lot of folks don’t realize that the current number one candidate to win the Democratic nomination in 2028 is… not Gavin Hairstyle… not Alfred E. Buttigieg… not Jupiter B. Pritzker… not even Josh “Yeah Right, Democrats Are Gonna Nominate A Jewish Guy Who Won’t Apologize For It” Shapiro. It’s Kamala Harris. No, really, I’m serious. “That’s crazy talk, Kurt. Why are you so crazy with your talking?” I’m not crazy. The Democrats aren’t crazy, either – they are stupid and evil. I’m not giving them the insanity out – they need...

🚨 HOLY CRAP! Scott Bessent just PUMMELED Gavin Newsom in Davos "He's here this week with his billionaire sugar daddy, Alex Soros!" 🔥 "I think it's very, very ironic that Newsom — who strikes me as Patrick Bateman meets Sparkle Beach Ben — may be the only Californian who knows less about economics than Kamala Harris!" BOOM!

A "racial equity" and "restorative justice" nonprofit funded by Minnesota taxpayers is calling for donations to a new bail fund that’s helping free anti-ICE agitators and illegal immigrants detained in Minneapolis. The Legal Rights Center, which Minnesota attorney general Keith Ellison led for five years, is promoting the People’s Bail Fund of Minnesota through Know Your Rights MN, a Legal Rights Center project that provides legal information and resources for activists. The project’s website was updated Thursday to include a link to the bail fund, which only secured nonprofit status last week and is actively "accepting requests for ICE protest...

Campaign aides to former Vice President Kamala Harris quizzed Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz on whether he was an agent for the Chinese Communist Party before selecting him as her running mate, according to a report. The intense vetting of Walz, which was reported by CNN, came about after Harris aides dug into the governor’s past, including the several trips he took to China before entering politics. Walz’s China ties stem from his years as a teacher before entering politics. He taught in China in the late 1980s shortly after the Tiananmen Square crackdown and later returned multiple times, leading student...
