(1) Kamala Harris has long felt that Bluetooth headphones are a security risk.
So, she insists on using wired ones, 3 fmr campaign aides told @rubycramer and me.
That Bluetooth phobia remains (if you look closely, you'll see the clump of wires in hand) twitter.com/AlexThomp/status/1

(3) Former aides say that VP has long been careful about security — w/ some describing it as prudent & others suggesting it’s a bit paranoid.
A former aide from AG days said when a person arrived for a meeting, staff were instructed not to allow them to wait in Harris' office alone. twitter.com/AlexThomp/status/1

(4) Some personnel scoops.
@brittany_caplin is joining the WH as an asst. press secretary to focus on SBA, labor, housing, more.
Her replacement at Commerce is @RM_Patterson from Pelosi's office, who has some professional history w/ Andrew Bates and Mike Gwin in the WH. twitter.com/AlexThomp/status/1

(5) Some more personnel scoops:
@CodySibulo is joining Commerce as a speechwriter and deputy director of public affairs
@AndrewOdgren is joining Commerce as a deputy speechwriter
and @dlippman scoops yet another departure from the staff secretary office. twitter.com/AlexThomp/status/1

(6) also, we asked Harris' office for any background on the particular security risks she believes Bluetooth technology represents.
They did not respond. twitter.com/AlexThomp/status/1

(7) Symone Sanders didn’t respond earlier today but here’s the VP office’s response—-> twitter.com/AlexThomp/status/1

@watson but why would anyone share any secrets worth protecting with that brainless idiot?

@waronmorons
you know one dude finds her brain quite irresistible: doug emhoff

@watson

You gotta know that she’s looked in the medicine cabinet of every person’s powder room she’s ever visited.

@Kindly_ol_doc
quite possibly closets and drawers....

@watson
Sounds like a guilty conscience. How would she know to suspect people of snooping or planting bugs or evidence unless she knew all about it from personal experience?

@watson Meh, I'm not a bluetooth fan:
It's unreliable
You can't have high quality bi directional audio
Charging batteries for such a simple device sucks
Sticking microwave transmitters and batteries in your ear seems like a really bad idea to me.
