An ex-staffer for Democrat Rep. Katie Porter of California alleged that the congresswoman made rude and racist comments to staff and said that she “ridiculed people for reporting sexual harassment.”
Sasha Georgiades, a Navy veteran and former Wounded Warrior fellow for Porter, also alleged that she heard the progressive congresswoman use racial slurs when talking to staff. Porter is currently facing scrutiny after leaked text messages showed her berating Georgiades for catching the coronavirus.
Georgiades also said that Porter ridiculed people after they had reported sexual harassment in her office as well as “made fun of individuals whose parents passed away from COVID.”
DEM REP. KATIE PORTER UNDER FIRE FOR TREATMENT OF VETERAN FELLOW AS FORMER STAFFER DECRIES CULTURE OF FEAR
Rep. Katie Porter, D-Calif., was accused of making rude and racist comments to staff.
“Basically told the individual to grow up,” Georgiades said regarding the case of a staffer who had reported sexual harassment in Porter’s office.
Georgiades noted that the staffer, who worked with her during her two-year period in Porter’s office, left the office shortly “after the sexual harassment conversation” with the congresswoman.
She also noted the individual “hasn’t filed anything with ethics committee but spoke about it with [Porter] personally, and that was her response.”
The Navy veteran recalled a Facebook live event around the time of Porter’s COVID-19 infection in July — which Georgiades previously told Fox News Digital excommunicated her from the office for violating “office protocols” — where the office communications director “had set up the ring light and iPad, and then Katie came in and completely dressed her down in front of me.”
