According to a THE POLITICO <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2021\/06\/30\/kamala-harris-office-dissent-497290\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">report<\/a> published Wednesday, the VP&#8217;s office is a woefully mismanaged hellhole of abuse and recrimination.<\/p>\n<p>As a sign of how dire the situation has become, the White House wheeled out former Harvey Weinstein &#8220;damage control&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/satire\/anita-dunn-harvey-weinstein\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">adviser<\/a> Anita Dunn to defend the VP against the allegations from nearly two dozen Democratic sources, including current and former Harris staffers. The situation was &#8220;not anywhere near what you are describing,&#8221; Dunn told THE POLITICO.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-3 text-red font-serif text-xl md:text-4xl\"><a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/satire\/anita-dunn-harvey-weinstein\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>MORE: Biden Taps Harvey Weinstein \u2018Damage Control\u2019 Adviser Anita Dunn for Senior White House Role<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The situation being described is rather harrowing. &#8220;People are thrown under the bus from the very top, there are short fuses, and it&#8217;s an abusive environment,&#8221; said one person with knowledge of Harris&#8217;s management style. &#8220;It&#8217;s not a healthy environment and people often feel mistreated. It&#8217;s not a place where people feel supported but a place where people feel treated like s\u2014t.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The White House has reportedly taken notice of the dysfunction in the VP&#8217;s office and has grown concerned.&nbsp;That could explain the decision to deploy Dunn, a former public relations lobbyist who provided &#8220;damage control advice&#8221; to Weinstein in 2016 after media reports exposed his long history of sexual predation.<\/p>\n<p>While Dunn is speaking to reporters on the record, however, other administration officials have been trashing Harris on background, blaming the dysfunction in her office on the VP&#8217;s inadequacy as a leader. &#8220;It all starts at the top,&#8221; one said, anonymously.<\/p>\n<p>The morale among current Harris staffers is reportedly &#8220;rough,&#8221; a situation familiar to those who worked on her failed presidential campaign, described in THE POLITICO as having &#8220;imploded in a painful maze of finger-pointing and leaks.&#8221; Former staffers described Harris as a boss whose &#8220;expectation won&#8217;t always be predictable,&#8221; and their work environment as one of &#8220;managed chaos.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The bombshell report is merely the most recent piece of evidence implicating Harris as a substandard politician who will never win a national election. Whether it&#8217;s her <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/issues\/harris-supports-abolishing-private-health-care-plans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">inability<\/a> to take a coherent position on a given issue or her weird habit of <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/politics\/kamala-harris-border-crisis-laugh\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">laughing like a maniac<\/a> in response to basic questions, Harris does not appear to have what it takes to succeed outside her deep-blue home state of California.<\/p>\n<p>A <em>New York Times<\/em> columnist recently described Harris as having &#8220;clear potential as a national leader.&#8221; The <em>Free Beacon<\/em>\u2018s fact-checking department gave that claim a rating of 3.5 Clintons, or &#8220;mostly false.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Professional pundits often wonder if President Joe Biden will seek a second term in 2024. Given the VP&#8217;s glaring deficiencies as a politician, perhaps they should be asking: Will he keep Harris on the ticket?<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-3 text-red font-serif text-xl md:text-4xl\"><a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/politics\/kamala-harris-national-potential\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>FACT CHECK: New York Times Columnist Says Kamala Harris \u2018Has Clear Potential as a National Leader\u2019<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Politics VP&#8217;s office described as &#8216;place where people feel treated like s\u2014t&#8217;  Andrew Stiles \u2022 July 1, 2021 3:20 pm  Evidence continues to mount &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":2313867,"comment_status":"close","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/kamala-weinstein-736x506-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"Former Harvey Weinstein Adviser Defends Kamala Harris From Charges of Staff Abuse","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-579029","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/kamala-weinstein-736x506-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"Former Harvey Weinstein Adviser Defends Kamala Harris From Charges of Staff Abuse","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/579029","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\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=579029"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/579029\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2313867"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=579029"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=579029"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=579029"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
