Katie Porter is a clear-eyed, hella smart, level-headed, take-no-prisoners communicator, a wonk, and my hero. She should be president.

she's a slayer

She's obviously intelligent and eloquent. That makes her a threat to the right.

Ya, but her competition is Adam Schiff. I would rather Adam Schiff. I believe she should be the democrats whip in Congress. No to her in the Senate at this point. Chess move stay there put Adam Schiff in the Senate.

@@Taphfy that sucks, i like them both

and I dare some MAGA disinfo spout to come up with anything bad to say about her. talk to the whiteboard.

I am

She is awesome!

O death wear is your sting, O grave where is your victory?

@@glitch-pr3nr if you are going to quote Corinthians, get it right!

She cant tell the difference between XX and XY

She is every woman……she is fucking amazing.

And I am supporting her for next Senator of Calif……💕👍

Touche, true American standards.

Couldn't possibly agree more

To bad common sense just went out the window. She is a hateful person and has demonstrated that over and over again on the house floor.

She has a much larger plate of responsibilities as a single mom to deal with. I soo admire her and wish her the best! IF SHE SUCCEEDS WE ALL SUCCEED, GO KATIE!!!!!!!!

She is my (s)hero !

​@@waynetaylor8082I wish she would run

@@LindaC616 My understanding HER hat is in the ring.

yes we are!

It’s a shame, there isn’t hundreds more just like her! 🙏

Katie for senate

🐺🖤🐧🐧🐧

Katy for prez

Since when, we need house reps that will work with each other rather than criticize others. If she disagrees with republicans then work with them to get a better result. Same goes for republicans. We elect these people to work together not to just go on talk shows and criticize each other. That is what most of these unqualified democrat and republicans are doing instead of working for the people. Porter is not original her rhetoric is the same words as every other democrat. It is like they rehearse it. Let's elect people that can think for themselves.

@@alanking6240 - *You obviously have never watched Rep. Porter at work in Congress.* *You're so full of boolshirt, it must leak out of your ears.*

I would love her as president but maybe she would be more useful as a senator with a 20+ year career. Feinstein needs to say goodnight and let's get on with it.

Agreed

💯

I love Katie Porter and she's an awesome representative in Congress but someone really should consulted with her about the yellow dress, definitely not the best look for her!

💯💯💯💯

need more like her

I can't believe Schiff announced 2 weeks after her that he's running for the same seat

An overweight balloon with empty ideas? We already have enough of that.

@@SixSonn If she is an empty balloon and is a lot smarter than any republican out their They are that dumb could not organise a f**k in a brothel

Thank you van Gogh

Love this idea!

totally agree

She interviewed with Jimmy Kimmel and Seth Meyers. Also posted on KZfaq.

The district she barely won?

​​@@ericcrabtree7404 bitter much?

@@ericcrabtree7404 She won, didn't she? It was still a red district until she beat Walters. She's more popular outside of her district.

So what? Boebert barely survived her reelection.

​@@ericcrabtree7404 In a red district.... Defeated R incumbent 2018. Reelected by wider margin 2020. Reelected in what was supposed to be a red wave year for Republicans 2022. By far the most qualified, and higher caliber candidate in her district. The fact that 46-48% of her constituents voted against her just shows how blatantly ignorant they are.

Porter for President

The protection is worth it's price in gold. She's a treat and a treasure. Katie Porter proud American🇺🇸

😃♥️

I love her. We need her, fierceness and honesty. By far the most honorable congresswoman than any man .

"admitted" ? Lol, Porter has nothing to 'admit' to. She talked about democrats (and republicans but that's a given) who, for example, voted to remove regulations and have made money while in office. _Those_ are the folks who need to admit they understand.

Lol……yea if you encourage abusing your staff, OH and your husband……you sheep are pathetic 😂

Senator Porter! I like that!!

What has she done since she has been in office, what bills did she write, has she been to the border? Does she support Israel

And I love watching the schooling!

#katie2024 !🎉

FACT!

mtg...

Bingo. She is such a straight, honest and truthful leader.

Regulations are like condoms: If someone is saying you don't need one, you DEFINITELY need one.

​@@rileymcphee9429 right on! I'm going to use that one

👏

Yeah, opensecrets is a cool resource regarding lobbying spending by corporations, and it is often to both sides. It's pretty interesting to track which years see increasing or decreasing spending, an tie-in to what was being debated or proposed at the time. Over-regulation can be almost as bad as under-regulation though, but it tends to be in states like Cali and is often more about bureaucracy than actually needed ones.

​@@obscurebullshit Best to use those only one time....

Hopefully Katie Porter wins the 2024 Cali senate primary and the race

I do NOT want her as a senator. I want her as President!!!

As a resident of her district, I'm excited to get to share the joy of voting for her with the rest of the state!

@@Jack-yw7bq *California

@@bluepapaya77 Me too! 💪🙌👏

YES !!!

Or what she really is, just another liberal groupthink hack who is a good soldier and takes her marching orders

She performed very badly, in essence endorsing Netanyahu when junketting in Israel. She could (should) have taken a stand against his authoritarianism, but didn't. Schiff has the nominal support of most Jewish organizations, but she would have had mine had she stood up to Netanyahu's anti-democratic policies and Israel's treatment of Palestinians. As it is, she gave up the moral high ground. Alas.

@@davidyohalem629 so the had an allegedly bad take on foreign politics (alleged because I'm not familiar with the issue, just taking your word for it) which is not part of her job (representative) but she has big dubs on everything related to her job and somehow in your balance that means she doesn't have a moral ground to stand on? Why not judge her merits based on her actual responsibilities?

@@davidyohalem629 when was that before or after he tried to usurp the supreme ct in Israel?

​@@davidyohalem629 there is no moral high ground in the middle east. They all have blood on their hands.

You can really spot the ppl who never switch their TVs off CNN

WHAT

Being able to decide whether to vote for either Porter or Schiff (discounting other canidates for the moment) is quite a blessing in a democracy, as in having a true choice between two highly qualified and able candidates!

@@exilhamburger4802 Right! Please include the Great Barbara Lee who is also running for CA senator.

She really would. The only issue is whether the American voters are too misogynistic to elect her!

Here here.

I'm hoping she runs in 2028.

@@thomasthompson6378 There are more women in the US then men. There are more Democrat voters than Republican in her state. So if she loses, the Democrat women did not support her.

But a democracy that relies on people being incorruptible is doomed to fail. There have to be systems to prevent the near occasion of sin.

EXACTLY!!! So sick of corporations buying politicians on BOTH sides!

Big deal, she just grifts in other ways. Why didn't Colburt ask her about her sweetheart deal for her house paid for by UC Irvine while she hasn't worked for them for years, denying those funds for deserving faculty. She should be in jail.

The sooner the better.

Yes please !!!

Wow!!! That’s big! I first saw her on Bill Maher and was impressed with her. I’d vote for her too, but I don’t live in CA. I’m a transplanted FL lady. Living the life in DE.

me too. not living in the US I already knew her from before and was impressed by her taking on those big guys with her detailed knowledge. delayed doing what I had in mind to do and opted for watching this interview instead. the only current representative who can make me do that

and her whiteboard game is absolutely on point.

@@embreis2257 Delaware

Agreed! If I ran across a genie bottle, one of my wishes now would be her running with Jon Stewart for Prez in '24. If that thought excited anyone else here, say it! IMAGINE the debates between them and whatever mental giant the repubs field this time. Darth Vader, Tommy Flanagan, Thanos, Putin, My Pillow dude, Roseanne Barr - whoever they pick would be annihilated by them & their intelligence. I can guarantee you that if that was the ticket, they would be too scared to debate them. They would cancel. Except for Kid Rock. If he was running, he'd be there with his dumb big mouth honestly believing he was the smartest guy in the world.

This is a test are you a bot? thanks

Apparently, it’s way easier when your words align with your vales, or ours.

@@biggestthreattoyourexistence Why are you posting that same question -comment on nearly every thread? The OP's account is nearly a decade old. You obviously don't understand how bot farms work and esp when they started to become active on YT. Do you have nothing to add to the conversation? If you don't support her senatorial run, perhaps, you should at least post why. I think you are a bot given the short amount of time your account has been open and that you post the same comment repeatedly. Why does Katie Porter being in the Senate frighten you and your comrades so much?

@Your Fan belated reply - no. Hi, I am real man/humanoid/not a rock.

@Franck ... Sure. Easier to listen to someone you agree with. However, it is still possible to acknowledge the skill of someone you dislike.

There's nothing to "fill out," as Sen. Feinstein has no intention of leaving her senate seat to others.

I agree. Nothing like a good book, to take away the boring doldrums, no matter the hour. Her book should have a very special place of its own in Congress. I wish I could vote for her, but I'm in gerrymandered Ohio. Gym Jordumb is not my congressman, thank God! Go Sherrod Brown!!!

I hope that day comes!

I like to watch on youtube taking thecrazies apart with facts and logic.

I don't live in CA but I have donated to Katie Porter campaign multiple times. I think that she is the type of politicans that we need if we want to save US from both extreme sides.

As a Californian who is not in her district but has watched her since the start of her career, I am very excited to get to vote for her in the upcoming senate race. We need way more people like her in government.

​@@spicycopper2436 There is no extreme left in the U.S. Progressive Democrats are as left as it gets (and these are Centre and Left-of-Centre in all of our peer countries). So, the correct phrasing is that we need more Progressive Democrats to save this country for the majority of the people from the 1%, their fascist Rethuglican tools, and the other Christo-fascists in the GOP.

Hit the brakes on the word attractive. If she lost 20kg you might have a point. I don’t mind them big but maybe she should eat a salad every now and then.

@cparz I don’t mind a woman with meat on her bones. However in my opinion, when she hits 200lbs there is more fat on the bones than I desire. If she keeps it under 160 I’m OK and she can take a ride on my magic carpet.

Well said, and I will donate to her campaign! 👏

Congrats on the awakening 🙂

I'm glad you looked away from FAUX long enough to actually SEE her. I'm astonished by how many people never even look at what the 'other side' is saying about stuff. Or go to actual source material for fact checks on ANYTHING that aligns with their beliefs. Thanks for being one of the few.

I’m a Republican however Katie Porter is one of those people who you can respect while still disagreeing with on some issues

@@Jack-yw7bq May I ask what some of the major party issues that prompted you to align with the GOP? I'm seriously asking because I think it's helpful for all of us to know where each of us is "coming from", esp if we're ever going to end the division in our nation that appears to be thoroughly tearing... no, ripping us apart.

@@Jack-yw7bq I do believe that Porter's honesty and integrity when she approaches issues gives her widespread appeal and is going to put her in the Senate. Central Cali is much different than Southern Cali and SFO. Porter has a no-nonsense, practical approach with broad appeal.

We seem to be getting more in some of the newer senators!! Many are outspoken, brave, smart, prepared, & articulate.

Good luck. I'm normally anti left but reading books and getting more knowledege is something I totally agrree with. Hearing all sides of a story and having some knowledge of things is always good in my book. Continue your research of both right and left , make your own decisions and best of luck. Ps i'm a trump fan and voted you up.

If you like classic books and that are anything to do with politics the gulag archipelago by Solzhenitsyn is must read. He was an eyewitness of communist russia.

I think she's a great future PRESIDENT!

@@slkhjf I do, too, but she has far too much integrity for the DNC to ever give her the nomination... Just like Bernie, she won't bow to corporate donors. It's a shame, but it's reality. Bernie should have been the 2016 Dem candidate and again in 2020, but he won't salute corporate dollars.

Except Bernie wasn’t and isn’t a Democrat. You can thank him for paving the way for Cheeto Mussolini. FO.

@@B_Bodziak that doesn't mean we shouldn't keep fighting. Some of the old guard is going away. Progressive are moving into those spots.

@@slkhjf Oh, I fully agree! I don't think most people realize that nearly every one of the changes that have come in the last 100 years and have actually made lives better for all of us happened because of those that were called "Progressives" at the time. Progressives are the reason most people don't work 6 and 7 day weeks and why we have a 5-day workweek as the standard. Progressives are why 4o hour weeks are considered full time instead of 60+ hours. Progressives are why there's such a thing as "minimum wage". Progressives are completely responsible for people having health insurance plans available by their employer. Progressives are why each of our bank accounts are insured for $250k each. They're responsible for children having free education in K-12, and why student loans even exist. Get injured on your job and need workers comp until you're healed? Thank progressives! People who retired from companies with a monthly pension but the company goes out of business -- it's progressives who created the govt program that makes it possible for you to continue receiving that pension. Belong to a union? Thank Progressives! All of these ideas were considered "radical" when progressives introduced them. I wish more people knew and understood how "Progressives"have literally impacted all of our lives today! Our Founding Fathers were also considered Progressives!

She's a perfect example that if you do your job well, people will keep you in office without the lies and corporate donors.
