Kamala Harris’ employees flee in droves, ex-staff cite toxic workplace
Washington Times ^ | 07/29/2024 | By Susan Ferrechio - The Washington Times - Monday, July 29, 2024

Vice President Kamala Harris has churned through her office staff, raising questions about her management style and leadership abilities as she advances unchallenged toward the Democratic presidential nomination.

Researchers who analyzed payroll data found an “extraordinarily high” exodus rate from Ms. Harris’ vice presidential office. Those who have worked for her over the past decade report that she was a tyrannical boss who terrified her employees, cursed, discouraged direct eye contact and made employees stand at attention when she entered a room.

One Democratic official whose son worked as an intern for Ms. Harris during her years as California’s attorney general (2011-2017) wrote in late 2019, after she launched her failed presidential bid, “There is another side of Kamala Harris which the general public does not know.”

Ms. Harris, 59, is on track to clinch the Democratic presidential nomination in a virtual vote and without opposition.

Multiple reports, focusing on anecdotal complaints of former employees, have focused on low morale and high turnover in her vice presidential office.

In a new report by the watchdog group Open the Books, researchers quantified her human resources problem. They discovered a 92% staff turnover through payroll records.

Since assuming the office in January 2021, she has retained only four members of her staff.

“Senator Harris vocally throws around ‘F-bombs’ and other profanity constantly in her berating of staff and others. The staff is in complete fear of her and she uses her profanity throughout the day,” Mr. McAteer wrote. “As Attorney General, Senator Harris instructed her entire staff to stand every morning as she entered the office and say, ‘Good Morning General.’”

Someone added up turnover rate for her staff and it was 92%.

Sort of a lot.

The person just made it out the door before the lamp thrown across the room smashed into it. Close one.

You think she’s bad now, wait until she’s the Queen of the Hive.

Is Kamala Harris the Worst Boss Ever?

Only four of Harris’ initial 71 staff hires remain; a shocking 92% staff turnover rate.
The rest either quit or were fired, according to non-partisan fiscal watchdog “Open The Books.”

Signs of a toxic workplace or does Kamala have a hidden agenda?


Fiscal watchdog “Open The Books’” investigation revealed a $2 million plus discrepancy in Harris’ allocation of taxpayer dollars. OTB calculated that for VP Harris’s 28 staff listed in the Senate report, the 2021 salaries added up to $2,334,223. But the vice president’s office “got $5 million for 23 full time staff in 2021 and requested over $6 million for 27 full time staff in 2022.

Harris’ office reportedly refused to answer any questions from OTB regarding this inconsistency. OTB said Harris’ office is a “revolving door” where there’s a perpetual staff exodus of key aides heading for the exits.......that might correspond to the $2 million discrepancy in her tax-paid payroll.

Payroll fraud entails serious crimes.......falsifying govt documents, misappropriation of tax dollars, skimming, larceny, check tampering, check kiting, billing fraud, payroll fraud, reimbursement fraud, pension fraud, misuse of tax dollars, theft of tax dollars, ID fraud, Social Security swindles, IRS fraud.

Cong Andy Ogles wants to impeach Harris; he should
focus on the $2 million govt payroll scam she pulled.

She’s a clone of Hillary in her nastiness. Difference is Hillary can speak and lie with conviction more easily and doesn’t require a teleprompter to do so

And yet, not a single soul voted for her in the primaries. Our Democracy™ in action!

A person is judged by how they treat the least important people around them, not the most important.

The secret that no one dares reveal. (Shhhhhh).

I had two bosses in a row who were Angry Black Women Syndrome examples. Racists against whites. Sexist feminists against males.

If male voters look forward to being peered down upon by a lecturing and hectoring Karen as President, then they can go to Hell.

Some data.
The angry black woman stereotype describes them as pugnacious, poorly mannered, and aggressive.

My name for her has been BJ Harris for many years. If you don’t know what those initials mean, ring up Willie Brown.

If you ask the typical voter in the Democratic Party, they’ve never heard of Willie Brown.

Kams is so contrived, annoying vocal inflections, gesticulations and that annoying wokecabulary.

You know who she gets excited? — Liberal women who want to live a parasitic lifestyle for the rest of their lives.

The shorthand is kiss up kick down or kiss up punch down.

Those are the nightmare bosses—if you work long enough you will eventually run into at least one of them.

In the corporate world the word spreads fast—nobody voluntarily transfers to their division. The newbies get hired and stuck there—and soon enough hate the company and bail. They never get a chance to find out the rest of the company is fine—they just drew the short straw.

Lt Col Robert “Buzz” Patterson was on Tim Pool tonight. He says that Kamala is Hillary Clinton 2.0. He does not think highly of HRC.

He should know. He was assigned to the White House to “carry the Nuclear Football” for 2 years during the Clinton Administration. He was witness to lots of behind the scenes interactions.

Harris is the type of person, who could turn very vicious if
she had real power. Her former employees verify that she is
of that sort of mindset.

They leave her in droves. What if you can’t leave, you are
under her as an elected leader for a four year term?

She has not moral governor installed to cause her to view her
own actions and moderate them.
