The US Secretary of Homeland Security ran her department like a female "frat house" where men were routinely bullied and sexually humiliated, according to a lawsuit filed by a former official.
Janet Napolitano, who was handpicked by President Barack Obama to defend America's borders, allegedly allowed a female subordinate to terrorise some of the country's most senior security officials while moving less-experienced women to top roles.
The lawsuit alleges that Suzanne Barr, Miss Napolitano's chief of staff at Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), would regularly carry out "sexually offensive" behaviour intended to "humiliate and intimidate male employees".
On one occasion Miss Barr allegedly called a male staffer in his hotel room one a work trip and screamed sexual abuse down the phone at him, telling him she wanted to perform oral sex on him.
In the spring of 2009, Miss Barr was said to have "removed the entire contents of the offices of three male employees, including nameplates, computers and telephones, to the men’s bathroom at ICE headquarters".
According to court documents she also snatched one special agent's work Blackberrry and used it to message the man's female supervisor with a message claiming that "fantasised" about her.
"Barr also created a frat-house type atmosphere that is targeted to humiliate and intimidate male employees," according to the legal complaint. "Further, Barr promoted and otherwise rewarded those male employees who play along with her sexually charged games."
The allegations emerged in a discrimination suit filed by James Hayes, a senior official at ICE, who accused Miss Napolitano of pushing him aside in favour of Dora Schirro, a long-time aide

Snort!!!
Why am I not surprised?
Barack sure looks engrossed with a page that has like 6 words on it.
Most likely six word phrase: Don’t look around. Fairies behind you.
What dya expect? It's not written in his native tongue.
This article is homophobic.
/s
LOL - Sound it out Barry...
I’m just a tad curious. How much does that department spend on batteries?
Probably about the same as they do cleaning their carpets.
Given the amateurish and offensive nature of Napolitano’s agents at the airport, this sort of management style isn’t at all surprising.
Indeed, it’s likely more widespread than this article alleges.
Jocularities aside, admittedly that’s going to be hard to do, this is The Telegraph, not some shifty blog. That’s a reputation and a presence worldwide that is hard to ignore. This is not going to look good for Barry.
Big Sis is probably the most universally loathed figure in the entire Obama apparat. Not even Democrats like her very much. I doubt if many high profile dems will be rushing to the microphone to defend her.
I wonder how long it will take Obama to chuck her under the bus.
If ever there was a thread that was useless without pics. I bet she's a hippo.
Barr (but this is a good pic of her, she looks older and chubbier now)
I dont know but after about 14 PBRs I would let her be my Monica.
I would spend a lot of time looking at the ceiling however.
She was Napolitano's squeeze back in Arizona.
She doesn’t look like a psycho *itch in that pic. Must be mugging for the camera.
And you ain’t kidding that that’s a good picture, I found another one. I vote to CONVICT.

Evil. Crime.
More pictures in the Daily Mail (UK) article below...
Big Sis Janet Napolitano ‘promoted woman with whom she had a ‘long relationship’ while her female staff tormented male colleagues with ‘sexually charged games’
And here I thought they were using windmills...
Bull dykes rampaging through the agency for “homeland security.” Just another example of Obama’s “social justice.” We have to get that entire lot of ungodly despots out of our capital.
