Kamala Harris released her first campaign video on Thursday, and it’s guaranteed to set the KHive and the BeyHive a-buzzing with joy.
On Monday, the vice president and likely Democratic presidential nominee entered her newly minted campaign headquarters to Beyoncé’s song “Freedom.” And yes, unlike so many Republicans who use popular songs against the express wishes of the artists, Harris had permission.
Now she’s using that permission in her first campaign video, titled “We Choose Freedom.”

“In this election, we each face a question,” Harris says as Beyoncé’s song plays in the background. “What kind of country do we want to live in? There are some people who think we should be a country of chaos. Of fear. Of hate. But us. We choose something different. We choose freedom.”
The ad juxtaposes dark footage of Donald Trump and JD Vance looking unhappy and menacing with bright and joyful images of Harris speaking to adoring crowds and greeting smiling supporters.
“The freedom not just to get by, but get ahead,” Harris continues.
“The freedom to be safe from gun violence. The freedom to make decisions about your own body. We choose a future where no child lives in poverty. Where we all can afford health care, where no one is above the law. We believe in the promise of America and we are ready to fight for it. Because when we fight, we win. So join us.”
Not a bad way to kick off her campaign.
