The 21st of July looms for Kamala Harris and the much smaller world of advisers left around her. It’s the day she’s set to lose the US Secret Service protection that former vice presidents are granted for six months — six months from the inauguration that she believed would be her own after Joe Biden gave her 107 days to win the 2024 election when he ended his reelection bid last July 21.

By this date, multiple people close to her say they increasingly believe Harris will have finally ended the intrigue over her political future and be preparing for a 2026 California gubernatorial run. Though she hasn’t made up her mind yet, several of those people tell CNN they expect an official launch would likely come in August or soon after Labor Day.

Watch, Caitlyn Jenner will run and outflank Harris on the identity politics representation front.

Oh god, please don't lathe into existence a governor's race between Caitlyn Jenner and Harris, in which chuds cynically troll libs by calling them transphobic for not supporting Caitlyn, while libs use the race as an excuse for open transphobia. It would be insufferable. agony

Caitlin runs on the platform of legalizing drunk driving and gets a good chunk of libertarian votes

while libs use the race as an excuse for open transphobia.

We would absolutely get a “You’re not actually trans unless you vote for democrats” moment from either Harris or one of her boosters.
