  • Rep. Katie Porter tells Stephen that she doesn’t take money from lobbyists, she thinks Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is guilty of hypocrisy, and she finds it hard to go to work every day with Marjorie Taylor Greene as a colleague. Rep. Porter’s new memoir, “I Swear: Politics Is Messier Than My Minivan,” is out now.

      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.

      @@michaelbayer5094 It's a mix of things. I'm actually a moderate and modern republican, and I would vote for her in a heartbeat compared to what we have had for a long time. There's no intelligence in the GOP, and it generally lacks in politics. The truth is that when politics became the media circus it is today, you cater to "politicians" who are in it for the fame, fortune and power. Very few politicians are in it for the right reasons. I suspect that Mitt Romney actually had a genuine desire to do something good for his country, and so does someone like Liz Cheney. Sadly someone put an orange haired ape at the wheel of this shortbus, in 2016 and ever since it has just been downhill. Obama was bad, Trump was a disaster, Biden is incompetent and so on. There are no proper "statesmen" left because laziness and insanity rule the US at the moment. The lunatic running for GOP VP is a gun totin' bible bashing crazy lady calling a married Ukrainian president gay, the former president is at best capable of acting like a petulant child, and the rest is ruled by religious nutters and right wing extremists. How insane is that? The truly scary part is that it has gone to hell on both sides. The more extreme one side gets, the more extreme the other side gets.

      See when you make such statements, you are going against everything she stands for. She knows that's not true, and she'd never utter those words.
      Both sides has fools and both sides has smart people. Sadly, the GOP pushes out most of what is there with a sound mind. You have to distinguish between normal modern and sensible urban professional republicans and MAGA redneck lunatics. If there was ever a republican that would be able to, and understand the importance of working across the middle with someone like Porter, it would be Liz Cheney. Sadly, that never came to be because of what politics has become, on both sides mind you. The crazies has come out to play on both sides, and you can be 100% sure that Porter has colleagues in her own party she is just as fed up with as Greene.
      Trump, MAGA, Greene and their gang of inbred bible bashing hicks are not the republican party. That's a political cult using the republican name.
