Kamala Announces Governor Run

Is Kamala Harris plotting a political comeback in California? According to a recent report from The Hill, the former vice president is now seriously considering a run for governor of California—a state she once represented in the U.S. Senate.

After being soundly defeated by President Donald Trump in the 2024 election, Harris has largely disappeared from public view. But now, with California in crisis and the 2026 gubernatorial race just months away, insiders say she may be gearing up for another shot at power.

“She’s being told this is her best shot to stay relevant,” one source close to Harris revealed. However, others say she remains undecided and that chatter is ramping up mostly because the primary season is fast approaching.

Backlash to Trump’s Immigration Crackdown

While Harris hasn’t made any official announcements, she recently inserted herself back into the headlines—this time by harshly criticizing President Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration in Los Angeles.

In a sharply worded statement, Harris said she was “appalled at what we are witnessing on the streets of our city.” She blasted Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to restore order as a “dangerous escalation meant to provoke chaos.”

That statement didn’t sit well with many Americans—especially conservatives who support law and order.

“This moment almost requires her to run,” another source claimed, suggesting that Harris sees political opportunity in attacking Trump’s tough-on-crime stance.

Would Harris Be the Frontrunner?

Veteran Democrat strategist Gary South says Harris would likely start as the early frontrunner thanks to her high name recognition across California.

“There’s no doubt about it,” South admitted. “But there are real mixed feelings about her among California Democrats, and those doubts would only grow if she actually jumped into the race.”

That hesitancy may be tied to Harris’s long history of backing progressive policies that many believe helped fuel California’s skyrocketing crime, rampant homelessness, and immigration chaos.

A State in Decline—and a Familiar Face Returning?

California voters—especially moderates and conservatives—have watched their state transform under far-left leadership. Now, with Harris possibly entering the race, many are asking: Is this more of the same? Or a wake-up call for California’s silent majority?

As 2026 approaches, one thing is clear: The battle for California’s future could be heating up—and Kamala Harris may once again be at the center of it.
