When Vice President Kamala Harris last week decided to visit the US-Mexico border, many of her own office did not know this plan.

For several days, Harris's mentors and allies outside the White House were constantly calling and texting together, expressing doubts about unwanted political consequences where the southern border visit could carry

When information about Harris's visit to El Paso is announced, many of them are surprised, including officials responsible for arranging logistics, moves and other advisers.

Stumbling, disagreements in handling the border visit are the latest evidence of chaos within the US Vice-President's office.

Most of their frustration focused on Tina Flournoy, Harris's Chief of Office, a veteran politician of the Democratic Party that began to work for Vice President from the beginning of this year.

In interviews, 22 Harris assistants, both incumbent and quit their jobs, described a stressful atmosphere, sometimes gloomy, at the US Vice President's office.

The assistants and allies said Flournoy created a lack of a positive working environment where new ideas were often ignored or bluntly rejected and decisions were often delayed.

Besides, two government officials are also thought that Vice President Harris himself is also responsible for how his office operates.

This is not a healthy working environment and people often see like their abuse.

The disorder inside the Vice President's office is at risk of deteriorating the image of the White House carefully built of the White House as a place with professional teams, cooperation work closely, not conflict.

Symone Sanders, a senior adviser and the main spokesman by Vice President Harris, rejected the blame and protected Flournoy, confirming that she always had an open policy.

Vice President Harris was only in office 6 months, but some advisers in her office said they were eyeing another work opportunity.

With Defranceschi, decided to go out of different from the point of view on how everything takes place, according to a source of understanding the problem.

Defranceschi does not respond to comment request.

Harris's third assistant worked in the digital team, Rajan Kaur, a break after deciding not to switch from Brooklyn to Washington.

Anita Dunn, senior adviser for President Joe Biden, protected Flournoy as well as decided to announce information about Harris's border visit in a small assistant group, adding that the vice president's office seems

It seems that her employees feel hurt because they are not involved in the discussion, Dunn said.

When asked if she knew about complaints related to the Office of Vice President Harris, Dunn decided it was not like what you described.

Flournoy is a perennial official of the Democratic Party, who worked at the White House under the former President Bill Clinton, as well as participating in Clinton's re-election campaign and Vice President Al Gore in 2000. She was also

Tina is strong, she is smart, with orienting should always want to gather strong, smart, oriented people around me, Daughtry said.

The group of people criticized that Flournoy's role was only to prevent external influences to Vice President and ensure only important issues to be submitted to her.

But Flournoy is supposed to have pushed the role of that gate to the extremity.

Many people Clinton knew decades suddenly could not contact him because they were stopped by Tina, a source with live understanding of Flournoy time to play the role of Chief of Office for President Clinton after him

Although part of the office of the Chief of Office is to limit its superior approach, but according to the source, you cannot just ignore everyone without responding to them.

Recently, a Harris friend has on behalf of the top sponsors for the Democrats who personally contact Flournoy to try to arrange a meeting with US Vice President.

Sponsors also contact Harris's office separately to connect but did not receive feedback for weeks later.

This is the one who donated hundreds of thousands of dollars, even millions of dollars, for your superior, so do you turn your back to them like?

The difficulties of Harris support staff are not so new.

According to this assistant, the current working spirit inside Harris's staff is also quite disintegrated.

From the beginning, Harris was assigned the duty to settle the root of migrants on the southern border.

During the weeks, Harris assistants said she didn't need immediately to take place to show a leadership role.

In an interview with NBC News, Harris mocked the idea of she would go to the border with the argument that she wasn't even to go to Europe.

A few weeks later, Harris finally decided to make a visit to El Paso.

After all, the border visit rushed not much for her.

But those who protected Harris said such promises were excessively inflated.

More worrisome for those who care about Harris are how to prevent employees who are disappointing jobs and improve their work in her office.

According to people who understand Harris's personality, she clearly showed the lead role when people around her calmly and orderly, creating a feeling of confidence and firmness.

When people make her worry, all suddenly disappeared, bad face began to appear and more severe, a friend of Harris said.
