However, Harris made clear she isn't stepping away from politics has kept a relatively low profile since losing the presidential election to Republican Donald Trump in 2024.

(Photo: X) 'For now, my leadership -- and public service -- will not be in elected office,' she wrote. 'I look forward to getting back out and listening to the American people and sharing more details in the months ahead about my own plans.'What those plans look like remains to be seen. But Harris signalled she's thinking beyond traditional political paths. 'We must be willing to pursue change through new methods and fresh thinking,' she wrote, 'committed to our same values and principles, but not bound by the same playbook.'She also offered a thinly veiled critique of the current state of politics: 'We must recognise that our politics, our government, and our institutions have too often failed the American people, culminating in this moment of crisis,' she said. 'As we look ahead, we must be willing to pursue change through new methods and fresh thinking.'"In the United States of America, power must lie with the people. And We, the People must use our power to fight for freedom, opportunity, fairness, and the dignity of all. I will remain in that fight, Harris concluded.- EndsWith inputs from AgenciesTrending Reel
