VP Kamala Harris Had 92-Percent Staff Turnover During Her First Three Years
Open the Books ^ | JUL 22, 2024 | Adam Andrzejewski

Chaos reigns on the vice president’s staff. And Harris tried to hide it by claiming that her office is not subject to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).

“People really, really do not want to work for Kamala Harris,” wrote former staffer Dan McLaughlin, January 2022.

...

Under Kamala Harris, the Office of the Vice President has been called a “revolving door,” a “staff exodus” of key aides “heading for the exits.”

That’s not hyperbole from the national media.

Our auditors at OpenTheBooks quantified an extraordinarily high 91.5-percent staff turnover rate. We used U.S. Senate disclosures to conduct our investigation and those databases can be downloaded below.

Elected in November 2020, Harris took the oath of office in January 2021.

As of March 31, 2024, only four of the initial 47 staffers from the first year are still employed – consistently and without interruption – by the Vice President.

Furthermore, the turnover chaos isn’t getting better. In the trailing 12-month period, 24 staffers left — that’s almost half the employees.

DJT needs to get about 10 disgruntled former staff and load up a few ads with them.

Maybe the disgruntled former staff can all sign a letter.

The stupid, distracted American public won’t know of this. If you try to tell them, they’ll accuse you of racism. One thing that may save us is, black men don’t like Harris.

That should make it easy to come up with a few useful stories.

“I know of one who liked her a lot.”

Well, she can’t treat them all like Willie. :)

And add this to Commie-La’s sterling achievements (from an email I received):

-Before she arrived in Washington, Harris’s greatest accomplishment as Attorney General of California was harassing and threatening political opponents with criminal prosecutions.

-As District Attorney of San Francisco, she was best known for her complicity in corruption, from a coverup in the crime lab to the withholding of evidence from defendants.

-Harris wants to ban fracking, the innovative, environmentally friendly drilling technology that enabled America to become energy independent under President Donald Trump.

-She supports single-payer socialized medicine… and the $100 trillion Green New Deal.

-She endorsed the Black Lives Matter protests even as cities burned and even helped bail out the violent rioters!

-She wants to raise taxes on businesses, workers, and families — and thinks taxpayers should pay for abortions up to the moment of birth.

-She supports President Biden’s illegal orders to force working families to pay for rich people’s student loans and to force girls to compete and shower with biological boys in public schools.

-On foreign policy, Harris wants America to be harder on our allies in Israel and softer on our enemies in communist Cuba.

-And, of course, for the last three years, Harris’s chief policy assignment has been… securing the border!

That’s interesting, but, more importantly, how many sets of kneepads did she wear out?

Well the young ladies who worked for her didn't realize at first that their promised job "in politics" was job offer from a Democrat procurer.

These young liberals who worked for her, must be quite crestfallen.

Imagine being an idealistic young person, who believes in liberalism and icons such as Kamala. Imagine the liberal women, who looked at her as a role model and a symbol of women’s empowerment and minority member empowerment.

And they learned that the woman they admired was a boss from hell.

His was the only staff she didn’t turn over.
