Kamala Harris has been branded a 'bully' who inflicted 'constant-soul destroying criticism' on her office staff in a damaging expose by a liberal newspaper.The Washington Post piece - a result of interviews with 18 people connected to the VP - also alleges that she'd fail to read briefings they'd prepared, only to turn on them if she was subsequently criticized for being unprepared. The claims from staff who worked for Harris were published amid confirmed departures of two high level staffers, with two others who are said to be heading for the door too.

Kamala "Heels Up" Harris........... November 07, 2020 "House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn said Saturday that he had privately urged President-elect Joe Biden to pick a Black woman as his running mate before Biden chose Kamala Harris, America's first female, first Black and first South Asian vice president-elect." November 12, 2021 "This week, USA TODAY and Suffolk University released a poll that found a startlingly low approval rating for Vice President Kamala Harris: 28 percent. That’s lower even than Vice President Dick Cheney, who was previously known as the least popular vice president in modern American history." The MSM is already in full mode talking about raycizm, sexisum. xenofobeea, prejewdis, bigatree, etc.

The jockeying for Biden's replacement has begun. Money is still on Harris, but hey, it's fun to watch. The powers that run Washington wanted Trump gone, and they wanted someone weak and controllable. Voila! Its Biden/Harris! Doesn't get more impotent than that. When one is incompetent, more often than not, they hide their shortcomings by being vicious. That describes Harris to a tee. If this is what happens to a representative government like Democracy, it doesn't work. What a train wreck.

Harris is a double heaping spoonful of embarrassment for this country and democrats thought President Trump was an embarrassment. Come on, man! These two define the term which is a clear indication that democrats will use anyone or anything to seize power. A great deal of them would want to put Fauci in her place if he would just identify as a woman.

Harris is a disaster but I thought this paragraph at the very end of the article was priceless: “Politico reported Wednesday that chief spokesperson Symone Sanders is expected to leave by the end of the year. Axios noted that Sanders…was never able to go on a proper tour to sell her book, No, You Shut Up, which was published in May 2020.”

Me too, #19. It took me about four years to get my revenge when my former boss's resume arrived at my desk. He had finally been fired from his old job and was seeking a position in my new company. I could not wipe the grin from my face for two solid weeks as I penned the perfect rejection letter. As an example, his biggest sin was mandating that we work every Saturday, all summer long, to make a deadline that was easily reachable and he would stop by every Saturday morning dressed in his fishing clothes to make sure everybody was there. He didn't even bring donuts.

#32 I agree completely. Kamala (The Flatbacker) is indeed a WOC when she's in public but really doesn't consider herself "black" in any way when in private. Why American blacks would consider her a WOC and cannot see through her obvious facade is beyond me. I guess if that's all you have... This is why she treats her staff as "unterrmenchen" and only worthy of scorn especially when according to her, they make her look bad or unprepared. Of course, if she took the time to read her briefings she might have something useful to say. But that's just a guess.

I learned the hard way to never, ever work for someone you would not hire yourself. You can't just look away when you know they are totally in over their head --- even when you are dying for a pay check, it is soul crushing to work for someone you don't like but outright hate for any of many reasons. Face it --- Camel-la-la is a dunce, pure & simple. Often these types of people can pull themselves together to concentrate on a goal (like graduating law school --- as she did from Hastings --- and we probably know how!) but they lack any kind of spark or intuition. They are very good at skating and dodging but not too good on details. A perfect politician.

New York Post Reporter Draws Psaki’s
Ire Over Daring to Ask About Hunter’s Laptop

Posted by Imright 12/7/2021 2:53:34 PM Post Reply
During Monday’s episode of The Psaki Show, New York Post reporter Steven Nelson made the most of his infrequent opportunities to question Press Secretary Jen Psaki by invoking news about Hunter Biden’s Chinese business dealings and Miranda Devine’s new book about Hunter’s laptop. However, Psaki wanted nothing to do with either of them Nelson began by citing a new and “big report” out of the Biden administration concerning “corruption” as a way of asking “two quick and hopefully pretty easy questions about that” (which ironically cited art sales as a key vehicle for money laundering).

President Biden and Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday opened a two-hour summit with waves hello — and some Biden virtual-meeting technical difficulties — before discussing concerns that Russia may invade Ukraine.The Biden team closed the meeting’s start to US reporters, but Russian state media published video of an amicable introduction and the Kremlin released an image that showed Biden waving with a smile on his face.Biden seemed to start the dialogue with his microphone muted as his lips moved without audio.“I welcome you, Mr. President,” Putin said through a translator.

White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki refused to say who'd bought Hunter Biden's recently-sold stake in a Chinese firm - and snubbed a question on whether she now believed the president's son's notorious stolen laptop was real. Psaki visibly bridled when asked by the New York Post Monday about who'd bought Biden's share in Bohai Harvest RST (Shanghai) Equity Investment Fund Management Company, a private equity firm headquartered in Shanghai. 'The president's son is not an employee of the federal government,' Psaki replied. 'So I'd point you to his representatives.'

Kathryn Wylde, head of the business group Partnership for NYC, blasted the mayor’s announcement. “There’s no forewarning, no discussion, no idea about whether it’s legal or who he expects to enforce it,” she said.

With a massive build of Russian troops near Ukraine’s border, Russia’s Vladimir Putin is indicating a willingness to risk a military conflict, but analysts say while the threat is serious, an invasion is not certain. The threat of an invasion will be the central subject of President Biden’s video call with Putin on Tuesday. Biden is expected to warn of dire consequences should Russia follow through with a military offensive, while Putin is expected to reiterate his ultimatum that NATO should not allow Ukraine to join its military alliance. The outcome of the video call could have major implications as Putin weighs the potential costs of a full-fledged invasion of Ukraine.

Socialist Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib took to the House floor recently to complain about her personal student debt and advocated American taxpayers should bailout students like her. (Tweet/Video) Tlaib is a perfect example of how federal bailouts of student loans would actually benefit the rich. It’s not just the poor taking out loans. Students from families earning more than $114,000 a year borrow at the same rate as the lowest-income students — and they take out loans nearly twice as large. Students with advanced degrees — lawyers, doctors and others — account for 40% of all student debt.

After two years of rising violent crime in Los Angeles, these incidents have sparked a national conversation and led to local concern about both the crimes themselves and where the outrage over the violence will lead. "The fact that this has

Homeless and people with low incomes will soon be housed next to the iconic and expensive Venice Beach neighborhood after the Los Angeles City Council approved last week a 136-unit apartment building. The project, which will be built on city property that is now a parking lot, will cover 2.7 acres and the Venice Dell Community project will cost $75 million. This is a development that is also taking place in other U.S. cities led by leftists who believe forcing diversity of income and race into prosperous and safe neighborhoods is required to achieve “equity.” Half of the units will house homeless people,

Don’t take it from me that getting boosted is a good idea. Take it from the GOP’s new political hero. The Wall Street Journal asked around among doctors to get a sense of whether the boosters are working. Are you seeing many patients with COVID who’ve had three doses, the paper inquired? A few here and there, they replied, as we’d expect based on the data showing 90+ percent protection against infection, not 100. But they’re rare and mild, typically involving hospital care only if the patient is elderly. Which sounds familiar. That’s the same posture the country faced in the first few months of the vaccine rollout this year,
