Oh Bobert, take notes. Katie Porter is what every constituent dreams of having as their representative. Intelligent, informed, rational, honest, compassionate - everything you lack. Please try to pretend to have at least one of those qualities by not talking again. Ever.
WELL SAID..BRAVO !!!!!
She comes across as an angry know-it-all karen that doesn't let people even respond to her obnoxious accusations.
I could not agree with you more. I like members of Congress who do their homework.
👍🏾
Another mugging of the first amendment. Oh opinion not supporting the narrative, die in silence and darkness!
Katie is a national treasure. Notice how she’s working on issues and not spending time on “got you” issues and slamming the other party.
👍🏾
💯👊
She not only explains the issues, but she knows how to correct them
She should be a U.S. Senator.
@@StevenC32
She is running for Senator ...hope she wins!!!!!
We need more like her in all levels of government.
We need more Katie Porters! 😢
As the 1st woman president… but that may be too much to hope for, given the US’s removal of womens rights.
A view from afar
Well there was more ,but she ate them
Amen🎉
We need less Boeberts
@@rayrontour57 And MTGs, Jordans, Gaetzs, Cruzs, McCarthys…
I love that Katie does REAL research! She does not just spout crap that has no basis or truth.
Hello Alice
How are you doing today?
@@jagodaszubert2404 call her and ask her. Whining here won't do squat
@@jagodaszubert2404 Well what I would like to see is you do something yourself to get the answers and not waste our time by reading about what you have no knowledge of. Got it?
@@jagodaszubert2404 She is an outstanding person, an outstanding leader for the people and an outstanding example to all that a representative should be. She has no control over the trolls who don't get that. Now you run along and have a nice day Ja.
@@franco634 Hear, hear!
Thank for holding up your Postal worker for acknowledgement
One of the smartest members of congress calls out the undisputed dumbest!!!
I don't know... There are a few Repubs vying for that "dumbest" distinction.
@@anchorskid - Right on!!👍👏👍👏
@@anchorskid And Katie Porter didn't even need to break out her whiteboard for her too 🤣
@@GrimmJaw671 Breaking out the whiteboard for the likes of Ms. Bobo would be overkill as much as wielding a shotgun against a cockroach.
With people like Lauren Boebert, Perjury Traitor Greed, Paul Gosar, Louie Gohmert, Matt Gaetz, Marsha Blackburn, Tommy Tuberville, and Ron Johnson (among others) as members it's extremely difficult to declare an undisputed, dumbest member of Congress. Most of the time the people I listed above toss that title back and forth amongst themselves like a game of hot potato.
Leave it to my hero, Katie Porter. Smart as a whip. NEVER, EVER challenge Rep. Porter, she does her homework and knows what she is talking about.
Yes! And she can Read! Unlike her wannabe
for real, she's amazing!
She is soo good at breaking things down after she is done speaking you feel like your learned something. Does anyone know if she was a teacher at one time?
Oh, I think she is prepared to be challenged; that's an important part of the democratic process.What she so often lacks is challengers who will meet her at her level. Democracy isn't about crushing the other, it's about informed debate and decision taking. And, we need more like her.
@@tammibattles2105 someone in another comment section said she was a teacher and that's why she comes prepared and can break it down or explain in a way that everyone is able to understand the subject.
Love Katie porter if she gets the nomination for senator I will be voting for her she kicks ass
She's my first choice to replace Feinstein! She's an absolute rock star. I wish we had a hundred more just like her.
I want her to skip the Senate and be a running mate with Biden if he gets the nod, or another Democratic presidential nominee. She is head and shoulders above Harris, who seemingly has been virtually non-existent as a VP. Get her the exposure as VP and then see what 2028 brings. This woman is ready! To my knowledge, she has no skeletons in the closet. How refreshing!
What sucks is 3 good representatives are going for that 1 spot! And who could replace them!
I would vote for her if she ran for president. Sadly, no voting rights in Calif.
@@TerryMcColgan , They ran Obama as a junior senator with virtually NO experience. She is better qualified than Obama was.
Always such professionalism & researched facts presented from Katy - total opposite from Boebart, MTG - like heaven & hell.
Katie porter actually let’s the witness answer questions. Wow. Where is everyone and why are they not at this meeting
I was wondering the same thing, where is everyone?
I guess you haven't seen any testimony that didn't involve Katies own witnesses, have you?
Hello Sandra
How are you doing today?
Boebert most likely had a podcast to do
@Theodore Barkley yes, I have..... those are my favorites.
I am always impressed by how clearly she breaks things down. She obviously has to do that for the Boberts out there. If only we had more intelligent, empathetic, brave people like her that represent all of us.
Katie Porter and Jamie Raskin are my main rays of hope in Congress right now.
I was hoping that she would have whipped out her signature "Whiteboard". Always priceless.
Kati explains the point very easy to understand, even for BoBo.
you're exactly right,that way she could comprehend what she saying,all they know is Hitler sign language.
What I love about Ms Porter is that she's worked as a teacher. She's had experience in communicating with kids and adults of all types. The talented, the challenged and everybody in between. :)
BRAVO! That's why it's important to have educated congress people, not the likes of Traitor Green and Boboberd.
The problem are the people who vote in people like Greene and Boebert
You do realize that Katie Porter is only correct about 20% of the time? She's a human geyser of misinformation.
Too funny
Hello Dina
How are you doing today?
I totally agree with you! But when facts are on your side, you don't have to resort to name-calling. It just fuels them to call our representatives mean names and gets us off topic.
Fancy that. Instead of picking strawberries, Forbes 'chose' to portray an accurately contextual segment that portrayed actual interaction with regard to testimony that countered the floor show by Ms Boebert's flagrant pandering to the base in her line of 'questioning'.
My thoughts exactly
38 word sentence!
Just threw this out there to see who actually made any sense out of this?
Yeah I was so surprised to see Forbes (Fox News in business clothes) highlighting Porter. I thought it must have been heavily edited to make her look bad. It wasn’t! Just shows how all of the right wing nut news is turning on Trumpists…finally.
@@terriseaton3049 English is so hard, right?!
@@terriseaton3049 Everyone but you.
I’d love to see a one on one debate between Lauren Boebert and Katie Porter, on any topic at all.
Porter wins by KO at 12 seconds of the 1st round.
I would, but on their own time. We pay these people almost $20 grand per month to have bs debates.
We LOVE KATIE 💞 Finally Brains!
💯👍🏽
And hard work. She is a machine!
WE DO love Katie. Media, show more Katie’s and less of the two ugly bonker-women. I don’t speak their names but one is from my Colorado 🤬
YES she has the brains because the other one don't have any brains
Brains still exist in congress.
Congresswoman Porter is a real member of Congress who is a professional and a very intelligent woman as well. Keep up the great work.
You’re going to be fantastic in the Senate, Representative Porter!! 😊
Love Katie Porter she knows her stuff. God bless her and her kids ❤❤❤
The day Lauren Boebert presents accurate information is the day the sun rises in the west.
😂😂😂😂
That day is somewhere in like 3013 where we have to continue to reverse the spin of the earth to save it from cats, who are actually aliens, that originally came here to save their planet but got lazy and complacent, but by then the ones that came here realize at liiiiike down to the wire, that their home planet will perish if they don't do something like NOW in 3013, so they siphon the energy from earths rotation to revitalize their planet, but soon after, to save humanity, we're forced to continue their reversal past entirely stopping rotation, further into rotating Earth the opposite of earth's original rotation. Thus the sun WILL rise in the west.
Also the same day as when it snows in hell.
This lady just knows her stuff
Porter not Boebert, you mean?
Katie Porter is a power to be aware and afraid of if you go up against her without having every piece of facts to back yourself up or she will destroy you! Thank goodness for Katie Porter and Jamie Raskin!
Now there is a power team for Raskin President and Porter for VP, Dream team
Whenever I hear Lauren Boebarf speak during a committee meeting, I just want to interrupt and say "Not now, dear...the adults are talking and have business to tend to."
LOL
So do I ….
I love Katie.
Katie Porter is a wonderful, intelligent civil servant who is one of reasons I retain any hope
that goodness will prevail in the human race. Thank you, Katie!
Boebert surely must realize she's way out of her league. And we're paying her $200k a year???
Vote her out we don't need Boebert
Just for breathing only.🙄
Don't katie make the same money? She never talked about Forrest management. What does she want? Black folks in the forest fires? Sounds like a waste of money to go through all this equity. They waste all our money on these committees. Their stupid equity committees. Spend 5 million on the committees to hire a million dollars worth of employees.
@@bethanyhealy4989 What are you talking about? She never mentioned anything about "Black folks". My best guess is that you have no idea that BLM could possible stand for more than one thing, and that her use of BLM has been around for way longer than the current one. Her use of BLM stands for Bureau of Land Management.
@@bethanyhealy4989 Katie is the voice of reason in a room of anger and hate. So if you can listen, without a Rupert Murdock influenced brain, she is a breath of fresh air. If you look into her eyes, and compare to the look in Lauren Boebert's eyes, you'll see the difference. Open your mind. I agree with you about how costly it seems to even have to talk about it. There has been too much anti-Americanism masquerading as "patriotic" fervor because of the internet and fake news.
Love k. Porter she knows her ish.
Yes, she does.
Seeing boebert in the same room as these people is to funny.
And scary
I'm waiting for bimbo Boebert's Playboy pictorial.
The world needs more Katie Porter!!!
Being an IT professional myself, I love that Katie Porter is fluent in something that's really not in her wheelhouse. And it really goes to how Lauren Boebert doesn't do her homework before opening her yap with a comment/position that's peak Dunning-Kruger Effect. Not surprising at all coming from Boebert though.
Exactly
You Go Girl !!!! DEMOCRACY and the Democratic party are spot on and what we need to keep this great experiment going 💙💙🙏🌊 😘 Thanks Katie 😘💙💙
Well, we're a Constitutional Republic, so......
@@hawkeyeted and that is a form of democracy so
@@hawkeyeted 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
YES! Why aren’t all these ignorant liars in jail? They are traitors-where is the law?
@@hawkeyetedand what do you think a constitutional republic gives us, genius? You guessed it…a DEMOCRACY!!!!!
I am SO glad Katie Porter go reelected. We need more folks like her. I live in CO and I am disgusted with bobert even though she came close to losing.
Absolutely, need intelligent life in Congress. How do the GOP sleep at night?
I agree. I was stunned she won.
You go Katie Porter 👍
@@emilyevans8017 Blood sucking vampires don't sleep at night.
Vote her out next time. It's imperative.😊
You go Katie!!!
Hot damn! I love watching Katie Porter use her brain. So refreshing!
and she's also totally humane.
Love how Katie asks intelligent questions of the witness, and the witness appreciates it and can answer with facts.
Sooooo, once again Boebert has opened mouth and inserted foot. She isn't aware that thousands of govt employees don't need and in fact, can't do all their work on that program. This woman is scarey. She knows not of what her job is supposed to be and even if she did, probably couldn't perform it!!!
Rural letter carrier, not many of USPS can do their job at home we have to go to the office! No snow days for us either!
@@jcoopes5604 And then there are the clerks. Coming in early to sort the parcels you folks deliver and then waiting on the customers ( a few which had no business being out and about during the early days of COVID. Thanks, Katie, for having our backs!
I like how she talks about whatever and is wrong then gets up and leaves so she dosen't have to hear a rebuttal over her stupidy
She? Do you mean Boebert?
Because they (Boebert and MTG in particular) aren't there to work, they turn up and give a performance for a clip they can use on social media and in fund raising emails. They are essentially a political version of onlyfans, using the position to create content.
@@divinity176 "They are essentially a political version of onlyfans" 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣 Best comment of the day.
Yeah bobo is a child who has no idea what she's doing there!!!
@@divinity176 You know I never thought of them being used as distractions,because they sure don't do anything else except that. They NEVER know what they're talking about,neither do we😅
Katie Porter breaks Lauren Bobert down
It is impossible for someone like Lauren Boebert who is not educated and has never held an administrative job to understand the working of administration.
Blame it on her voters. They think an ignorant women with a gun is a great idea as their congressional representative. They deserve her. Unfortunately, the rest of the people in her district have to live with the consequences.
Katie Porter is most definitely one of the finest member of congress. If the congress worked like she does we have a lot less problems in this country.
she thinks a man with a penis who calls herself a woman is in fact a woman. lia thomas
How professional that Katie is polite, but firm no bantering around, just put her point over lovely a breath of fresh air. Thank you
1:20 am. we need more of Katie……Noticed Jen Psaki would like to interview. Meanwhile I would love to hear it 👁👁🦉
Katie Porter ROCKS! ! !
Katie Porter is a jewel for the USA - you need more people like her
she is smart love the way she thinks
😆👏👏👏The lady is powerful!!!☇☇☇🌞🌞🌞🌟🌟🌟💙💙💙
Anyone trying to disarm law abiding citizens is a corrupt traitor.
It's so funny how many people are experts on everything yet know nothing
A high school education isn't even required to be a Republican in Congress. Listening to Lauren kills brain cells.
@Ernie Strother Typical bully move-instead of coming up with a witty and intelligent comeback, you instead insult the OP. Got your ego stroked with that one, did you? LOL!
@Ernie Strother boebert is a better escort than Porter but God is Lauren dim
@Ernie Strother Ya, we've seen the level of intelligence that college "education" provides. 🙄🙄
@@hawkeyeted what exactly do you mean by that? Down with education--- oh, "college education?"
I love Katie porter. Thank you for teaching us
America really needs Katie Porter at the Senate.
America needs more people like Katie Porter in Congress, in the Supreme Court and in the Senate. The problem seems to be that intelligent people like Ms Porter
- work. They are middle class Americans that have jobs and families and love celebrating the 4th of July. They are not rich, they do not have nannies, they do not own their own business, have inherited wealth, are mega-donors, or are corporate CEO.
I'd rather see her stay in the house and someday be speaker!
Katie is exactly what we need and I'm so thankful she is in Washington!
I hope she’ll be the first women to be president. That would be so refreshing to have somebody smart, honest, detail-oriented and hard-working in charge. For once
She would probably be a great President.
The DNC will torpedo her
Does she have a couple of billion dollars or a corrupt corporate sponsor to buy her way into the White House, like all the other presidents?
Thank you so much Katie !!!!
If the title says "Katie Porter", I'm clicking!!
me too. Her calm intelligence reminds me of a beloved headmistress when I was a young girl.
Damn..shes up on her facts..impressive!!!
Katie Porter is amazing!!! We'll researched and intelligent communication...
Hello Dear
How are you doing today?
Some with a Master’s degree vs. someone who was granted a GED after 4 failed attempts. This is known as asymmetrical.
Since she was a college professor, I think that Katie has a PhD, if not a JD! Bobert, as I understand, barely got her GED!
I love Katie Porter. So smart!
I love Katie Porter! A pioneer for the people!’❤
Protect this woman ❤️💯
Good for Katie! She tells the truth. The truth and facts are important.
Katie Porter is a national treasure.
I work remotely not on a vpn and work longer hours than I did in the office! A lots more hours!
Thank God for Katie Porter.
Katie Porter is an exemplary congresswoman, someone who should give us renewed faith in the ability of such people to be good representatives for the people. She demonstrates what it should be like--a person in congress who is knowledgeable, honest, forthright, caring, and forceful in pursuing the truth as well as policies that will benefit American citizens.
Yes, like a load off my back. Impotent frustration is awful. I can only vote & scream at my screen. Good to hear other thoughts similar to mine. I don't live in America so I hear what people think of us as s Country. I put forth a good argument, then certain people in congress open their mouths & I get asked, "how is this a democraticly voted person?". I have few answers. Jerrymandering, etc. Peace
Katie Porter is GOLDEN!!!🇺🇲
I love Katie Porter!
I miss Katie's white boards! I love this lady!!
Katie Porter talks about real issues for common people! Love her!!!!!!!!
Zero Boberting, “you deleted my tweet!”
Will be campaigning for her in the primaries.
A breath of fresh air! One of the few who still has INTEGRITY, who actually CARES.
Katie, bobo aint smart, she's just pretending to be cuz she's desperate for her 1 minute fame. Thanks for reminding her that she needs to understand what she thinks she knows.
"KATIE PORTER IS AN ARTICULATE and,INTELLIGENT ,CONGRESS WOMEN" She Can Read and,Research "Which,Is A Valuable Commodity In Our Nation's Capitol!
Hilarious
@@patrickkenney4756 Well said Patrick.....well said.
not to defend boebert but we all can't be harvard law grads .. in fact far too many are running our government the courts wall street and major corporations ..
@@robertwagner8658 yes,you and boebert are.
Ms Porter is brilliant and SO needed in our government !!
If we were just so lucky for every state to have a Katie Porter! Imagine the things that we could do as a country if the middle class would actually have genuine people in leadership like this lady!! I really hope this lady runs for president one day she has my vote absolutely!!!
Anyone trying to disarm law abiding citizens is a corrupt traitor.
So good to this great women being front and centre
Boebert is great at saying inaccurate and misleading things. I’d say it’s the only thing she knows how to do properly.
Still hasn't figured how ice forms ,so ice cubes confuse her.Fairly simple...
It seems there's one other thing she can do well - lie to the police about child abuse in her own house.
Well, practice makes perfect. 😂
I love Katie Porter!! She's so wonderful and literate...refreshing asset !!
I am filled w/ such pride for the work Katie does & her thorough understanding of EVERY situation through the lens of empathy & intelligence. I ALWAYS stand w/ & for Katie!
What? This page highlights Porter? I'm impressed since this page is so right!
With no disrespect to Adam B. Schiff and Barbara Lee, I support Katie Porter for Sen. Dianne Feinstein's Senatorial seat. Katie is so damn smart and accurate, I can't image anyone challenging her like Lauren Boebert without being embarrassed. And she was.
I love her! She's Quick and very knowledgeable
I just love her❤️❤️❤️❤️
Katie Porter is a true badass
Katie Porter is *amazing!*
She comes prepared.
She brings the FACTS.
She actually speaks _for the people._
_Bless you_ Katie, I am thankful for your service!!
Now this was worth watching. It is about time they are being set straight by the main congress committee..
Thanks for this post! Grateful for UA-cam!
Love her!!! She doesn't mess around. She tells it like it is. She is one badass 😎💪👌 woman.
Katie is a hero of working folks!!!
Dear Forbes, please release more segments like this. Ie, segments that are longer, allow for more context, are less edited, etc. It's wonderful to see parts of our gov't actually in play as opposed to showing just snippets of some person ranting with no context given. Can be a bit like CSPAN, but just the highlights.
God bless Katie Porter! God's gift to our democracy and country. A well informed & educated person. No book banning done here. Educated people are important. As maga (morons against God & America) proves every day this would be our country without complete education. Thank you Katie Porter.
More people conversing to be smart strong and outspoken like Miss Katie Porter. People just be honest and tell the truth and give a s*** you're awesome
she cuts right through the crap. I'm not sure I would be smart enough to do what she does.
Of course Boebert got up and walked out when Katie started to talk.
Katie for President !
screw that her being speaker would be great, Katie's skills would be wasted in the presidency... POTUS is essentially a figure head when it comes to legislative change the only power they hold legislatively is vetoing potential laws sent to their desk...
I completely LOVE Katie! She's coherent, she makes sense, she researches before she opens her mouth to make what she's says in fact based..
I'd love to see the cost/benefit analysis of the services provided versus how much it costs for the government to provide it. Having worked for government I can promise the pay is NOT lavish, and ensuring the safety and quality of road and bridge construction (what I was involved with) certainly IS critical, when you, your wife, your kids, your parents, et al, actually need them to be sound and long lasting.
as a former GS 810-13 we know that most people are clue less about how things really
work and what it takes to keep things together ....
Way to go Katie 👏👏👏
You Just gotta LOVE Honorable Congress person Katie Porter! What a great national treasure (i.e.: referent: Patty Strothman statement.) and her mind is just EXCEPTIONAL!!!!
When God was passing out brains Boebert thought he said trains and never got one.
She's a rock star!
an unassuming, matronly, down home genius. Love her!
Look at you forbes, being unbiased. Good for you.
Admirable woman Ms Katie Porter
Go go go rep Katie
Imagine if there was more of her I mean katty Porter we would have heaven on earth many blessings to you and your family for being a brave warrior and to the other ladies you that are like katty Porter oac Liz chai and the others keeper of the lordsburg door and UFOs
There are more of her but they don’t run for office. It’s a blood bath with rich people’s billions buying up our elections and the media addicted to “red meat” that ups their viewership and sells ads.
Katie Porter would make one hell of a president.
Wow. Katie Porter is one smart, well informed, studious eloquent lawmaker in Congress. 👍
