Kamala Harris returns to spotlight in major speech slamming Trump
Briefly

Kamala Harris made a notable return to the public eye with a speech at a women-focused political gala in San Francisco, critiquing the Trump administration's policies and expressing determination amidst challenges. Addressing a supportive crowd of Democratic women leaders, Harris emphasized unity and resilience in facing adversity. Her appearance suggests ongoing speculation about her political ambitions, particularly in a potential bid for governor in 2027 or even a presidential run in 2028. The event signals her re-engagement in politics following her time as Vice President.
Speaking with the aid of a teleprompter to the crowd of Democratic women politicos, among them, the newly-elected Oakland Mayor Barbara Lee and current Lieutenant Gov. Eleni Kounalakis, Harris slammed what she called the Trump administration's wholesale abandonment of American values and the steep tariffs that she had opposed in her breakneck, three-month bid for president last year that cost $1.5 billion.
Straight talk things are probably going to get worse before they get better, she said, to groans in the audience. But we are ready for it. We are not going to scatter. We are going to stand together.
