Even the Rats Know Part Two

Whether it's a school, an organization, a corporation or a government agency, you know there are problems when key players begin to depart. Oh, they'll give innocuous reasons such as "family" or "health issues" or something that makes the departed sound like noble team players. But the truths lie in the rumor mill-the murmur behind the scenes that are played out in desperate searches for some other mensch to fill the spot. You can read more here.

Consider, if you will, the CEO's such as Jack Dorsey who left or were asked to leave their highly compensated positions. The Big Tech industry has been outed as more or less an amplifier for the DNC. As a result, there's been some pushback by the public and questions in Congress over the validity of things such as Facebook Fact Checking. Given that social media has essentially supplanted the evening news on TV, it's a good question to ask if they are being balanced in their presentations or if they are instead, using their platforms to slant issues for their own benefit. When you realize 94% of Google employees donated to Democrats, it's a fair question to ask. You can read more about CEO resignation in Big Tech in this article and even more in the economy at large as resignations percolate throughout the elites in this article. 

This goes back to our basic "fight or flight" hard wiring. While some resignations were due to age (and more probably need to happen) I think when it comes to government resignations, it is because they are frustrated, unheard or ignored. It was not a joke that Maxine Waters' office churned workers like an old Kenmore washer. Those people were often verbally abused, given unrealistic expectations and treated as if the head honcho was royalty. I'm sorry to say that as a woman, I've personally experienced this far more often from female bosses than male bosses. There are some women who mistake obnoxiousness for assertiveness. I believe that is what is happening in many congressional offices and especially in the Office of VP Harris. 

Why should this matter? It should matter because she is literally next in line to an aging, and I believe unwell, president. The failure to read memos, to attend informational meetings and to basically play out a scenario of Barbie Goes to Washington rather than doing anything in regard to her assigned jobs should put in clear perspective the ego in charge of the VP's office-and this is not about serving the people.
