Vogue dedicates the October cover to Kamala Harris and is praised
Vogue magazine, one of the references of fashion and glamour, dedicates the digital cover of October to the vice president and Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, to whom it also devotes two highly complimentary articles.
With photographs by the iconic Annie Leibovitz, this issue includes an exploded view entitled ‘How Kamala Harris dresses during campaign trips’, with a series of 49 images where Harris shows his entire wardrobe in which jacket suits dominate but also ‘jeans’, sneakers and gala dresses fit. None of the photos show an unfavorable profile.
The announcement that Vogue makes of its ‘special Kamala Harris’ on its Instagram account already indicates the tone of what the articles will be; thus, it says that Kamala intends to “do something unprecedented in American history: set up a campaign and win it in three months, as a black woman, against a former criminal leader (sic)”.
The main article, with more than 8,000 words, equivalent to more than a dozen pages on paper, collects numerous moments of Harris in privacy and informal interviews, and the author Nathan Heller has had access to her husband Doug Emhoff, childhood friends, one of her doctors and a multitude of people who have been by her side throughout her life.
The article, extremely flattering with Harris, underlines her qualities and her career from below – that idea of the American dream – and ends in fact with the words of her friend and ally Oprah Winfrey, who in a rally presented her like this: “In no other country on earth could History have been written like this: from being a daughter of immigrants, to MacDonalds worker, district attorney, wife, senator and vice president.”

Trump says Iran seeks new talks after failed negotiations in Pakistan
Donald Trump said on Monday that Iran has reached out to United States to resume negotiations, following the collapse of recent talks held in Islamabad.
“We’ve been contacted by the other side,” Trump told reporters, adding that Iran is eager to reach a deal “at all costs.” Speaking from the Oval Office, he reiterated that his main objective is to prevent the Islamic Republic from acquiring nuclear weapons and warned that he will not allow Iran to “blackmail” the international community.
After negotiations between Washington and Tehran ended without agreement on Sunday, Trump announced that the U.S. would move to block the Strait of Hormuz, a critical route for global oil trade.
The waterway had already been disrupted by Iran in response to a U.S. and Israeli offensive launched on February 28, causing significant shocks to the global economy.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump further warned that any Iranian vessel attempting to bypass the U.S. naval blockade in the strait would be “eliminated immediately.”
The renewed tensions have pushed oil prices higher, while global stock markets have reacted negatively to the lack of an agreement in Islamabad.
