Vice President Kamala Harris recently celebrated the 20th anniversary of the popular LGBTQ+ makeover show, Queer Eye, by meeting with its cast and creators. This notable event featured original cast member Carson Kressley and current stars Karamo Brown and Jonathan Van Ness, along with the show’s creators, David Collins and Michael Williams.
Harris expressed her gratitude for the show’s impact on LGBTQ+ representation and progress, stating, “We can’t take any of these things for granted… let’s keep going.” However, the celebratory atmosphere was tinged with tension due to ongoing drama within Harris’s Secret Service detail. Reports emerged of a Secret Service agent attacking her superior at Joint Base Andrews, raising concerns about the stability of her protective detail.
House Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer announced an investigation into the incident, with Secret Service officials scheduled to brief Congress on June 21. This unusual altercation has captured public attention, paralleling the drama often seen on television.

Harris’s words underscored the importance of not only maintaining but advancing the progress achieved in LGBTQ+ rights.
