    This week we’re talking to Congresswoman Katie Porter, Democrat from California’s 47th district, who wields her white board like a weapon. She explains (in plain English!) what we’ve got wrong about inflation and why Congress isn’t jumping at the chance to fix it. She updates us on the midterm elections, breaks down the hypocrisy of Republican rhetoric on crime, and she blows our minds with the answer to why political ads never show footage of members of Congress doing actual work. Plus, we’ve got writers Jay Jurden and Alexa Loftus here talking about Elon Musk’s Twitter takeover.

      She is one of the most effective legislators in the nation. She works for the working class / middle class and poor, not billionaires. My impression of her is that she's authentic and really wants to work to make this a better country (where as many politicians want to convince voters they're working for them but, what's most important to them is winning elections and staying in office. Even if they know they're not effective and there are other candidates who would almost certainly do a better job and accomplish more for the country).

      Chris Chamberlain: Yes, Katie is marvelous at exposing the system and it's corruption and I love her for that, but she's proven to be an ineffective legislator.

      You truly can leave the democrats out of that sentence with a few exceptions. I’m tired of the false comparisons/equivalencies or equal blame when it’s simply not true. DEMOCRATS DO NEED TO COMMUNICATE better. Under the fire hosing of corruption and lies, they have been speaking truth about corporations fleecing not just Americans but the world. Biden has been saying it, Gavin Newsome has been saying it, Obama, Hillary, and 99% of any democrats that get media exposure at all have been saying it! it’s just that the so called “liberal media” hasn’t been exposing it nearly as much as they need to. It’s that the truth is media isn’t liberal, at best some media outlets pretends to be as there is a market for it and they have to get the liberals fed just the right amount to calm their hunger.

She was granted a leave and an extension so she could fulfill her term in Congress. By the way this leave is without pay forfeiting a $200,000 plus salary. That in itself shows her commitment to her elected job
      in Congress.
