A Democratic strategist in the former vice president's political orbit told Fox News Digital that Harris "has always said that she’s going to continue to be involved and be a strong voice for Democrats as there’s so much to push back on from the damage Trump and Republicans are doing to this country. Her revived engagement on these platforms does that, and it adds another Democratic voice in the digisphere, which we need more of."

"Plus, it keeps her options open for the future," added the strategist, who asked to remain anonymous to speak more freely.

Harris was mostly out of the headlines for a couple of months following the end of the Biden administration early last year. But she started stepping back into the political spotlight last spring and summer, including headlining Democratic National Committee fundraisers.

Her announcement last summer that she would pass on running for governor this year in her home state of California also increased speculation regarding a potential 2028 White House run.

And Harris, who hasn't closed any doors to running again, is currently in the middle of the second leg of her book tour around her best-selling memoir "107 Days," which was the length of her 2024 presidential campaign.

Harris will be the chair emerita of Headquarters, in an honorary role, with some of the staff behind Kamala HQ reuniting on the new project. The former vice president will not have editorial control over the posts.
