After losing in 2024, she relaunched her Kamala HQ presence on X, renaming it Headquarters, and has joined with the left-leaning group People for the American Way to launch an online organizing project aimed at next\u2011generation campaigning. A CNN piece quotes their goal as building a durable progressive organizing infrastructure, contrasting it with conservatives who have long since built permanent machines while progressives historically dismantle theirs after Election Day. <\/p>\n<p>The plan includes expanding to Substack, YouTube, and other platforms. A video Harris posted shows her addressing followers and describing Headquarters as a hub for up-to-date news and for reconnecting with elected, community, civic, faith, and young leaders. The article notes Harris has remained publicly visible since 2024, with her memoir about the campaign, 107 Days, promoting a nationwide tour. The Headquarters operation will be run by some former campaign advisers and People for the American Way staff, with Harris titled chair emerita (an honorary role), signaling she will be a prominent figure in their outreach.<\/p>\n<p>With more than two years to go until November 2028, the piece argues Harris is intentionally staying in the left\u2019s online orbit. It also suggests her path to the nomination will be tougher than that of a likely Republican contender such as J.D. Vance, who already has broad exposure from the Trump era. The 2028 nomination process will be different from 2024, with no last\u2011minute switch with an outgoing president, and Harris would likely have to contend with other Democrats\u2014most plausibly California Governor Gavin Newsom\u2014if she aims to run against a Republican. The article stresses that Harris has never won a primary on her own (she withdrew in 2020 before the Democratic primary and received the nomination in 2024), and it notes the baggage from her time in the Biden administration could complicate her prospects<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2565220,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Kamala-Harris.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[41461,32923,32438,32515],"class_list":["post-2565219","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-2028-election","tag-democratic-party","tag-kamala-harris","tag-us-politics"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Kamala-Harris.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2565219","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2565219"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2565219\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2565224,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2565219\/revisions\/2565224"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2565220"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2565219"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2565219"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2565219"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
