    NEW: 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) https://www.politico.com/newsletters/west-wing-playbook/2021/12/06/kamala-harris-is-bluetooth-phobic-495343 …pic.twitter.com/HtscTWm1sF

        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.

        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.pic.twitter.com/zk8Ne5KQd1

        also, we asked Harris' office for any background on the particular security risks she believes Bluetooth technology represents. They did not respond.

        Some people say that December is a slow news month. I don't know what they're talking about.
