Overview

• Kamala Harris’s memoir, released Tuesday, recounts her 107‑day 2024 presidential campaign and her loss to President Donald Trump, with a multi‑stop U.S. and international tour now underway.
• In the book she writes that Joe Biden’s public empathy for Gazan civilians was inadequate compared with his rhetoric on Ukraine, while also criticizing Benjamin Netanyahu’s conduct of the war.
• She portrays a strained relationship with Biden’s orbit and says she should have pressed him to exit the race earlier, describing her inaction as “recklessness” on her part.
• Harris says Pete Buttigieg was her first choice for running mate but judged that ticket too risky and ultimately chose Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz; Buttigieg later urged giving voters more credit.
• In an MSNBC interview promoting the book, she labeled Trump a “tyrant” and castigated corporate leaders as “feckless” for failing to resist him.
