Former female coworkers say Kamala Harris' husband is "a misogynist" who harassed them
Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff received warm words of praise last month from former White House press secretary Jen Psaki, who said that he had "reshaped the perception of masculinity."
However, a recent report lays out disturbing allegations against Vice President Kamala Harris' husband, with one former coworker charging that he is "a misogynist."
Emhoff accused of workplace harassment
According to the Daily Mail, it spoke with multiple female staff members at Emhoff's former law firm, with one recalling how he once bragged of screaming profanities at a woman who tried asking him a question.
"She had to ask him something," the woman said. "His office door was closed. She said to his secretary, 'Is he on the phone?' She said no. She tapped on the door, he didn't answer, so she slightly opened the door and stuck her head in.
"He said, "Get the f--k out of my office.' What's worse was he bragged about it to the management at Venable and they were aghast," the woman explained.
The unnamed figure went on to describe Emhoff as being "an a--hole" and "a misogynist" who told management of how he had "put her in her place."
Second gentleman allegedly slapped ex-girlfriend in 2012
Another woman stated that Emhoff had a notorious reputation for being "very flirty," adding, "If you weren't flirty back or didn't respond positively then you were on his s--t list."
Meanwhile, a third woman recounted how on Friday evenings Emhoff "had, for many years cocktail parties where only men were invited."

Those claims came in the wake of an earlier report from the Daily Mail that Emhoff "forcefully slapped" an ex-girlfriend in 2012 while the pair were attending a Cannes Film Festival event.
"Doug comes up[,] turned her around by her right shoulder, and she was completely caught off guard. He hauled up and slapped her so hard she spun around," a friend of the alleged victim told the newspaper.
Emhoff previously admitted to cheating on first wife
These are far from being the only allegations that have been directed towards Emhoff, as Breitbart previously reported that he admitted to cheating on his first wife.
"During my first marriage, Kerstin and I went through some tough times on account of my actions," Emhoff said in a statement to CNN.
"I took responsibility, and in the years since, we worked through things as a family and have come out stronger on the other side," he insisted.
