Harris likes to portray herself as a happy-go-lucky woman. The reality is much worse than she lets on.
And Kamala Harris was caught screaming at her staff thanks to a courageous whistleblower.
Kamala Harris “throws around F-bombs” and constantly berated her staff when she was California Attorney General, according to a shocking report.
An unearthed 2019 op-ed by professor Terry McAteer, published in California newspaper The Union, describes the “eye-opening” month his son Gregory spent as an intern for Harris, now the presumptive Democratic nominee for president.
McAteer, a Democrat with generational political ties to the party, claimed his son was subjected to a “side of Kamala Harris which the general public does not know.”
“Harris vocally throws around ‘F-bombs’ and other profanity constantly in her berating of staff and others,” McAteer wrote.
“As AG… Harris instructed her entire staff to stand every morning as she entered the office and say, ‘Good Morning General.’”
“Gregory was also given instructions to never address Harris nor look her in the eye as that privilege was only allowed to senior staff members.”
The article, titled Another Side to Kamala Harris, also alleged staff members did not initiate an introduction on Gregory’s behalf because they were “in complete fear” of her when she served as Attorney General of California from 2011 to 2017.
Terence and Gregory McAteer could not be reached for comment on Thursday, and representatives for Harris did not immediately respond to questions from the New York Post.
McAteer went on to say that he has “nothing against” Harris, but she didn’t show the quality of leadership skills or of a decent boss one might expect during his son’s summer internship.
RedState reports Gregory’s LinkedIn page — which now appears to have been pulled down — showed that he worked as a “public policy intern” for Harris from June to August 2011.
“Assisted in researching/analyzing federal crime statistics in support of the Attorney General’s ‘Tactical Smart Crime Initiative,’” a screenshot of his page, cited by the publication, reads.
Harris was previously dubbed a “bully” by a staffer who had worked for her after she became Vice President to Joe Biden in 2021.
“It’s clear that you’re not working with somebody who is willing to do the prep and the work,” the former staffer told the Washington Post in December of that year.
“With Kamala, you have to put up with a constant amount of soul-destroying criticism and also her own lack of confidence. So you’re constantly sort of propping up a bully and it’s not really clear why.”
McAteer’s op-ed re-emerged after OpenTheBooks.com, which describes itself as a “government watchdog organization,” reported last week that Harris is experiencing a 91.5% staff turnover rate within the Office of the Vice President.
That figure significantly surpasses President Joe Biden’s staff turnover rate of 77% and former President Donald Trump’s rate of 72% during their terms, according to the site.
The organization, citing payroll records, says as of March 31, 2024, only four of the initial 47 staffers employed during Harris’ first year as vice president in 2021 are still working for her “consistently and without interruption.”
Harris reportedly has 50 staff currently working for her, as she campaigns for the presidency after Biden sensationally dropped out of the race on July 21.
Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy this week told Fox News that “nobody lasts very long” while working for Harris.
“Even as VP, when she didn’t do anything, she could not keep staff,” he said during an appearance on Life, Liberty & Levin.
“How she treats people around her is a real indication of what she’ll do in the future.”
