Kamala Harris’ hiring practices under scrutiny as claims of poor office culture resurface

Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy expressed concern over Vice President Kamala Harris’s op-ed about her staffing difficulties, telling Fox News that “nobody spent a lot of time working for her,” and that was a sign of what she’s going to do in the future.

McCarthy made the following comment during an appearance on Life, Liberty & Levin this week, saying, “Nobody lives long. Even if she was vice president, she wouldn’t be able to keep her staff if she didn’t do anything. This is someone the press would never talk about. The way he treats those around him is an indication of what he’s going to do in the future.”

“He’s famous in California, he’s famous in Washington. If you work for him, this is a brave place to work.”

McCarthy also said: “When he’s elected to the United States. I was the majority leader in the Senate. I went down there to meet with him. He never met me. If I talk to a Democrat in front of the California delegation, they don’t care because he won’t meet with me.” Following OpenTheBooks are quotes from former California Republicans. com, which describes itself as a “government watchdog,” reported last week that Harris has a 91.5% approval rating in the vice president’s office.

The organization says that, based on payroll records, as of March 31, 2024, only four of the original 47 employees hired during Harris’ first year as vice president in 2021 were still working for her continuously.

In the year before that date, 24 employees resigned. Harris says she currently has 50 employees working for her.

Harris’ 92% approval rating overall is higher than the 72% for President Biden and former President Trump in their first through fourth years in office, according to OpenTheBooks.com.

As of 2021, 127 of Biden’s top 560 White House staffers are still with him, according to reports. “That was always an issue,” Harris, a former aide, told The Hill in 2022. “You have to have citizens around you. “
