With the conclusion of her tenure as vice president approaching next month, Kamala Harris is in negotiations for a potentially lucrative book deal that could massively boost her finances. Publishers are reportedly keen on a tell-all memoir that would provide an insider’s perspective on President Joe Biden’s administration and Harris’ own political journey, including her unsuccessful bid for the presidency.
According to a report by the Daily Mail, the anticipated memoir could disclose key insights into the inner workings of the Biden administration, covering major decisions and controversies. Possible topics include Harris’ role as the “border czar,” the controversial withdrawal of U.S. military forces from Afghanistan and her choice of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate—a decision that received criticism related to concerns over his military history.
Advances for the book are rumored to be staggering, with estimates reaching around $20 million, a figure expected to rise with the inclusion of additional publishing rights:
According to a Kamala insider: ‘Virtually the moment Kamala lost to Trump, the offers began pouring in from the publishing world for her to do the definitive book on what really went on between Joe and Kamala – what went right and what went wrong – inside the Oval Office walls, and all the ups and downs of her campaign.
‘They are throwing around advance numbers in the $20 million range, maybe more with other publishing rights.’
Scoring such a huge sum if Kamala, 60, is not out of the question. Barack and Michelle Obama landed a joint deal from Penguin Random House worth a reported $65 million advance in 2017. Bill Clinton got a $10 million advance in 2001.
A prominent executive at one of New York’s top liberal-leaning publishing houses told DailyMail.com: ‘More than anyone in the Biden White House, Kamala as the number two, and then as Joe Biden‘s campaign successor after he dropped out of the race, knows all the secrets, knows where all the skeletons are buried.
Harris has previously authored two books: The Truths We Hold, a 2019 memoir reflecting on her personal experiences, and Smart on Crime, a 2009 examination of criminal justice reform. During her campaign for the presidency, it was revealed that Harris had plagiarized content in her first book.
Buzzfeed reported that Smart on Crime outlined a vision for reforming the criminal justice system but largely supported law enforcement perspectives. The book, co-authored with journalist Joan O’C Hamilton, bolstered her credibility as a criminal justice reform advocate during her tenure as California attorney general. However, recent assessments by plagiarism investigator Stefan Weber indicated that the text contained multiple instances of uncredited material, with conservative activist Chris Rufo alleging that Harris included sections directly from Wikipedia.
Despite a low profile following her decisive electoral defeat to President-elect Donald Trump—which has placed considerable financial strain on the Democratic Party—Harris has continued to engage with supporters.
Man gets Kamala Harris’ signature tattooed on his arm after she signed it.

Who would pay good money to read a book about her when she couldn’t even explain herself and her plans for the country during her campaign and before the November, 2024 election.
Will the book be under fiction?
Ha, ha. Now a book of lies. The left will love it. I hope her price tag sticks it to them!
We’ve lived her life for over 4 years. Why would we want to read a book will be written as she see’s it and not as it factually was. She was an unqualified VP and was unfit for any office!
Money Laundering. Maybe she’ll pay off her political debt!
This has to be a payment or payoff for something else. No real business would pay for a book no one wants to read or buy.
Book deal? Golden Books? Cottage Door Press? Ladybird Books? Would a publisher pay her for content?
Toooooo funny!
Who the EFF would ever want to read or know anything about this zero brained overly, ambitious ,conceited, egocentric SOCIALIST?
May I suggest a title
“I Am Being And Doing Nothing”
Or
“Word Salad Sally”
I’ll be deemed wrong by a lot of Demos, but I thought one had to accomplish something in their life to write a story. Her life is full of fictional and non-existent stories. Soap Box lovers and The View watchers should enjoy the alternate realities.
