Terry McAteer, who \u2064wrote an op-ed in 2019, shared his\u200b son&#8217;s experiences as an intern\u200d in Harris&#8217;s office. He described a toxic environment where Harris allegedly used frequent profanity, belittled staff, and enforced strict protocols like having staff stand and greet her every morning. McAteer argues that such behavior reflects a lack of respect for her team,\u200b and he criticizes the dynamics of her leadership style, which he perceives as \u200dabusive and reminiscent of outdated practices. The narrative includes contrasting perspectives, as some, \u2064<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/im-glad-rush-limbaugh-lived-long-enough-to-get-cancer-and-die-blue-check-leftists-celebrate-rush-limbaughs-death\/\" title=\"\u2018I\u2019m Glad Rush Limbaugh Lived Long Enough To Get Cancer And Die.\u2019 Blue-Check Leftists Celebrate Rush Limbaugh\u2019s Death\">including celebrities<\/a> like \u2062Drew Barrymore, express admiration for Harris, framing her as a nurturing figure.

Terry McAteer, whose son had a brief summer internship with Harris, penned an op-ed for The Union in 2019 when Harris was actively campaigning for the Democratic presidential nomination, which ultimately did not succeed. This isn&#8217;t particularly new information; in 2021, as many of Harris&#8217;s staff members were leaving her office, Politico published an article characterizing her workplace as highly dysfunctional. According to a source with firsthand knowledge of the situation, \u201cPeople are thrown under the bus from the very top; there are short tempers and it\u2019s an abusive environment.\u201d The source further described it as \u201cnot a healthy environment\u201d where employees often feel mistreated and unsupported.<\/p>\n<p>Despite these criticisms, some individuals continue to praise Harris, including celebrities like Drew Barrymore. During an April episode of &#8220;The Drew Barrymore Show,&#8221; Barrymore enthusiastically referred to Harris using a nickname created by her stepchildren: Momala.<\/p>\n<p>However, McAteer&#8217;s portrayal of Harris in his 2019 op-ed was quite different. He noted that there is another side to Kamala Harris that the public may not be aware of based on his son&#8217;s experiences. He claimed that she frequently used profanity while berating staff and instilled fear among them: \u201cThe staff is in complete fear of her,\u201d he wrote. Additionally, he recounted how during her time as Attorney General and Senator, she required all staff members to stand each morning when she entered and greet her with &#8220;Good Morning General.&#8221; McAteer also mentioned that his son was never introduced by Harris and was instructed not to address or make eye contact with her\u2014privileges reserved only for senior staff.<\/p>\n<p>He expressed concern over this treatment: \u201cI don\u2019t know about you but this is not indicative of someone who respects their team,\u201d he stated. He criticized the expectation for employees to stand upon her arrival as reminiscent of outdated practices that many Americans find degrading and questioned why looking at her would be prohibited: \u201cI know I wouldn\u2019t want to work in such a hostile environment!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2318766,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Picture-83.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[17409,32438,5894],"class_list":["post-2318765","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-bullying","tag-kamala-harris","tag-politics"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Picture-83.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2318765","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2318765"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2318765\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2318766"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2318765"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2318765"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2318765"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
