‘Get out of my f--king shot’: Katie Porter tears into staffer in newly released video

Jesus, Karen.

menopause is a bitch

Democrats. Republicans. All narcissistic garbage.

Its a shame how many unattractive people represent the U.S.

She has a face like a dropped pie.

Nothing burger.

She's positively hideous. She comes across as a raging bull dyke. Since I'm not a Californian I'm almost hoping she does win because she's going to be a lot of fun to watch.

I don't blame her - the staffer should've known better. He was very distracting in the background.

I was too distracted by her tiny, gnashing, piranha-like teeth to notice the staffer in the shot...

She makes Amy Klobuchar seem nice.

Sorry to see this

OMG, she’s a human being!!

I will only like really really nice politicians

Are we at the point where we can all agree that she’s a terrible person?

Who else is running for California Governor? This bitch can’t be the cream of the crop. Isn’t there some handsome guy in the race? What about San Jose’s mayor?

You should still vote for a terrible person if they have a D after their name. That’s what Republicans do in order to win.

I like her no nonsense attitude, but most people will recoil at this. Women politicians have to be tough, but also nice, which is impossible.

She may be a terrible person, but her politics align with mine, so I still support her.

[Quote] OMG, she’s a human being!!

We know that R7 she's a human being and a terrible one. Piggy's ex-husband has accused her of verbal and physical abuse

[quote] Who else is running for California Governor?

Hopefully, someone now sees the opportunity and doesn’t just let her just glide into her coronation.

Everybody has a bad day.

She has a fuckload of them, though.

I question the judgment of anyone who introduces someone like this to her children and moves him into her house. Ex-boyfriend sounds quite crazy independent of his drug and alcohol abuse. At least she got him out of the house, but it sounds like he caused some hassle for her office staff and some colleagues.

Happiness is knowing this woman will never sit on my face.

Careful, r24, fate can take some wild turns.

She's very smart. And she knows it. And she wants everyone else to know it too. Yes, she's a cunt.

How would I need them in order to win ma'am? -KP

She's odd. Watch the clip from CBS California investigates.

Anyone see the text messages of her accusing her staff of giving her Covid?

This is the difference between Dems and Repubs. Dems are already turning on this woman and treating her actions with suspicion and contempt. Repubs would act like she’s totally normal and that there’s nothing to see here.

That is why they win elections and Dems get publicly buttfucked by the likes of white trash like Pam Bondi.

It's not exactly like the other Democratic candidates are chopped liver, r29. The experience/talent pool in California doesn't begin and end with Porter.

You have to tell the little people pretty emphatically or they just will not get the message.

I'm not mad at you, I'm mad at the shot!

I can see her in sweatpants, screaming at her kids in Walmart-

“PUT THOSE GODDAMN OREOS BACK WE CAN’T AFFORD THEM”

Maybe she should really lean into the stressed the fuck out, divorced mother of 3 routine.

R33. Does she also threaten to take out the "Shitbra"?

LOL

She has the "Everywoman" mom look she could have capitalized on quite easily as a counterpoint the fake, plasticized Mar A Lago female that populates the Trump administration. She could have done it humorously, if she had a sense of humor about herself. Porter has a sweet face that, unfortunately, hides some serious character defects.

She has a good resume, but she comes across as trashy.

[quote]She's very smart. And she knows it.

Good thing she's smart. Because she's ugly as sin. And a nasty bitch.

She kind of looks like Frasier’s dad in a wig. Where’s Eddie?

It's too bad we don't have a cult leader to keep us all in line and tell us who to vote for.

Didn't she used to being one of those regional sales managers for Mary Kay? I wonder if she had the pink Cadillac Seville?

Didn't she do informercials about cooking pans?

@ 0.20 she discusses her 12-year-old daughter crying because she was worried that she wouldn't be allowed to get an abortion if Trump were President and discusses trans in women's sports @2:08 with Bill Maher and Piers Morgan

I don't think anger is her biggest problem.

And what’s wrong with that? Those are Democratic talking points. Are you saying you’re against abortion and men playing in women’s sports?

Get back to us when you've watched the video R44

PS R44 I am against men competing on women's teams and in women's locker rooms

Then you aren’t a Democrat, are you, you MAGAt. You are MAGA Nazi TERF Zionist cunt! FUCK OFF!! FUCK OFF!! FUCK OFF, TERF CUNT!!!1!

R47 take your meds dear

The ugly duckling has finally become a swan.

A 2025 poll by The New York Times reveals that 79% of Americans do not believe males should be competing in women’s sports, no matter the gender with which they identify. (And only 18% said they should be allowed to compete.) In fact, the more Americans think about the subject, the more they oppose it; a similar poll in 2023 found 67% opposed. A jump of 12% in opposition over the course of less than two years is quite remarkable. Further, it is almost impossible to find any other subject on which almost 80% of Americans all agree in 2025; you just don’t see an 80/20 split on social issues today.

Then maybe 80% of Americans are MAGA Nazi TERF Zionist cunts!

Beauty like sanity is so TRANSitory

Here she is again. Christ.

Ex-husband.

Exposed for racism:

In January 2023, Politico reported on criticism that Porter was "allegedly a terrible—according to some accounts, abusive and racist—boss."[86] The accusations include allegations that she used racist language and "ridiculed people for reporting sexual harassment".[87]

The Washington Post interviewed eight former employees on condition of anonymity about their experiences working for Porter.[88] The staffers described her as domineering and recounted multiple examples of her mistreatment of staffers, including instances where she berated staffers until they cried.[88] In response to the allegations that she created a toxic workplace, Porter defended herself on The View in April 2023 by comparing herself to women of color who are discriminated against.

Katie's career is in the rearview mirror. She's just unnecessary noise at this point. Go on and git.

We're doomed because the sheeple only respect those capable of Real Wives/Worldstar/drop-the-mic type acting out. Y'know, because we need a Change.

Word is she’s mixing booze with drugs.

(R7), (R8)

(R9)

[quote] comparing herself to women of color who are discriminated against.

That doesn’t mean he’s racist.

She is ridiculous. There was some clip of her on YouTube claiming that her 12 year old daughter came to her crying that she was afraid of being raped and not being able to get an abortion afterward. Sure, Jan. This is the type of mother who is capable of Munchausen By Proxy, transing a fledgling gayling or tomboy child, etc. She's a nut job.

R62 see that clip at R43 the story seems so fabricated. And if her water polo playing daughter is afraid of being raped, I wonder how she would feel about having to share a locker-room with men.

T62 hit the nail on the head

Good for her! That little cunt shouldn't have been in the shot anyway!

I can’t stand her. She’ll never be Governor of California.

R66 = Robert Garcia, formerly of Long Beach, California.

R66 Agreed. She can't win a statewide race here. I'd bet the only reason she was leading the Dem candidates in the polls because she is the only one who has nationwide name recognition due to her House service. All the other Dem candidates right now are state-level folks -- and while a few of them have statewide recognition (Betty Yee, Xavier Becerra, Antonio Villaraigosa), none of them exactly inspire or light a room on fire.

I'm really hoping the rumors are true that Alex Padilla is about to jump in the race. Competent, well known, knows how to work with Washington, and has already been publicly abused by the Trump (so-called) administration while standing up to them. He's a fighter.

hate this bitch.

i mean if for some freaky reason she wins the democratic primary, i’ll vote for her but begrudgingly.

[quote]That doesn’t mean he’s racist.

Read again.

R66 Forgot to also mention: Katie never should have ditched her House seat to run for Senate. She's great at grilling corrupt oligarchs like Jamie Dimon in House Oversight hearings, but her delivery of her style of performative schtick doesn't inspire my confidence that she's got the temperament for bigger jobs than a House seat.

I really soured on her when she pulled this stunt in January 2023, during the Republican House shitshow trying to elect a Speaker. Yes, it was a shitshow. Yes, the debacle proved once again that Republicans fundamentally cannot govern because they have no interest in doing so. Yes, [italic]the Republicans[/italic] are unserious. But the message I got here is that she, too, is unserious.

I know a woman who behaves in this manner.

She claims to be progressive as can be, however, she is NOT a genuinely nice or kind person.

It’s a weird mix, for sure. I’ve been around libs all of my life, & most are mellow, or understand how to control their temper, even if they're Type A.

All the “libs” I know are nuts. They start fights over everything and act self-righteous. I just sit back and watch them argue with everyone. MAGAts are delusional morons who are angry and act crazy too. Progressives are probably the worst of the Left. That’s a totally different type of crazy. I love how they’ve deemed centrists evil. That’s all you need to know.

She sounds like a stealth MAGA pretending to be a Democrat, @ R55.

Also, I don’t believe for one second that her 12 year old daughter came home crying from school one afternoon, because of her fear of not being able to access an abortion in the future, while living in CALIFORNIA.

This bitch is nuts, & not in a funny or “great at parties” kinda way.

I love the rubenesque Senator, her opinions are quite on track. Maybe she lost it because they tried to set up a shot several times and people kept getting in the way.

'So on election night I was with I went to pick up my daughter from water polo practice and she's 12 and she got in the car and she was crying and I said did someone punch you, like water polo's a rough sport I was like did someone hit you. did the coach yell at you what happened and she said Mom Trump won Trump's gonna win and what if I get raped and I need to have an abortion' -Katie Porter

Christina! Christopher! Dammit!

She's the gift that keeps on giving

Who did Katie piss off this week that there’s all of a sudden this huge pile on on her? Same with David Del Rio. They must have pissed off the wrong people.

Well she seems nice.

She's about as likeable as tooth decay.

Oh, please, stop kidding yourselves. At a certain level, all of these politicians are just like her. Demanding. Rude. Expectant of certain results

R71, Dems need to realize that they are held to a different standard than Repubs. Unfair? Absolutely. But it is what it is.

@82 "Oh, please, stop kidding yourselves. At a certain level, all of these politicians are just like her. Demanding. Rude. Expectant of certain results."

I agree. Most politicians are like this to a certain extent. But the ones who can win are those with the self-discipline to turn it off, or at least hide it, when necessary.

Let me throw a stapler at this fat whore!

she looka lika man

R84, a great modern politicians' biggest achievement is making us think that they are just like us. Because they're just like you and me! We can have a cocktail with them, discuss China, the latest Laker game, hard veiny cocks, sports, etc. -- but all the while, they're really just angling for your vote.

If THIS is what the left cares about, then we deserve to lose

R88, nobody who has ever cared about "what the left cares about" has ever typed what you just did.

Try harder.

R62 and R63 that story about the tearful daughter sounds apocryphal and super sketchy. If it were true, I’d be concerned for a teen who is so demonstrable and emotional about a very abstract, remote potential. Trauma is real and serious, but this weird anecdote sounds made-up, cynical, and naive to use as a media talking point. Hard pass on this candidate.

She can also inflame moderates who have been scolded and scalded by outraged progressives at work or in life, and quietly abandon the party over it.

I like her. She's right in the middle in between the obnoxious "moderates" and the "progressives" whom both believe themselves to be the Democrat majority. Nevermind that we are the majority.

^^thats meant to spell”demonstrative”

This might be a good look for Katie on the campaign trail.

Another Gen X disaster.

She will be fine. What she needs to do is twist this into "I'm a fighter," because that is what she is -- a fighter.

R95 She may be a fighter, but she is also verbally abusive. California voters are smart enough not to confuse the two.

R96, "verbally abusive" is sometimes a part of the role. Nobody actually ever gets anywhere being "sweet and kind."

This actually makes me want to vote more for her. I want to vote for somebody who can FIGHT. Katie Porter can fight and not just turn the other cheek.

And she has some mighty big cheeks

Katie Porter is not "in the middle" between moderates and progressives, she is progressive. She's a Warren protegee. No wonder she sucks.

R99, that only shows how far to "middle" you are. Cunt.

OP = MAGA trash - or a MAGA trash collaborator.

I pegged her as a big phony very fast. Giving up her House seat and running for Senate in California was her way of quitting a job which no longer suited her massive ego.

Good riddance you nasty cow!

"I'm a fighter!"

and

"I can't get along with anybody!" are two distinct things.

I believe that currently, there’s this simmering, yet identifiable movement, of new liberal candidates, who present as liberals, with the caveat that they're just as shitty as MAGA.

I don't think I like this trend.

Look at what’s happened with Fetterman, and others?

Beware of the Trojan Horse, my fellow democrats.

The moment we begin allowing our leadership to claim to have our values, however, behave otherwise, consistently? Well, that is precisely how we end up with problems.

Some of these self proclaimed dems are capable of being just as poorly behaved/unprincipled, as those who are MAGA, in this current administration.

It’s not about purity. It’s about resisting all of the same bullshit that got us here in the first place, due to conmen/conwomen, who are willing to do whatever it takes to sit at the table of power, & get in a cushy job that offers amongst MANY benefits, free healthcare for life.

This lady isn’t a good fit for most of us. Anyone who performs her type of political theater, in order to conveniently leak it, is just another side of the same coin, that reveals Kristi Noem, who claims to have murdered her puppy, in order to get where she is today.

People like this cannot be trusted. They're manipulating/pandering, to those who are easily manipulated/pandered to, & if they’re willing to do that? Then WTF else are they willing to do?

She’s a power hungry cunt, & she is not beyond manufacturing this recorded scenario, in order to appeal to those who are shitty people to begin with, way before they saw her as a possible candidate to vote for, & before Trump’s name even found it’s way into the political arena as a presidential candidate.

These ridiculous performances & games are not what democracy is founded upon. If we keep on engaging with these power hungry psychopaths via chicanery & spectacle, we will become another version of them, although a “lite” one.

Don’t fall for this BULLSHIT.

Do NOT forget for one second that each and every one of us here on this forum, might be someday be targeted AS AMERICANS who aren’t undocumented migrants, just because we’re liberals, LGBTQ, etc.

These Project 2025 folks are already ramping up violent political sentiment in order to appeal to MAGA the idea that liberals are Antifa, which is a recently & patent & falsely constructed terrorist group, out of thin air, without any data or evidence in order to substantiate their ridiculous claims, while ignoring what Antifa actually means, & WHY it means what it means.

Bottom line:

You’re LGBTQ, Hispanic, Black, a legal resident born outside of the United States, you’re the legitimate press, the average John Q citizen, a citizen born into citizenship by birthright, a Hollywood actor or entertainer or writer, producer, or whatever?

Consider THIS:

THESE PEOPLE IN OUR CURRENT ADMINISTRATION ARE COMING FOR YOU/US. NO ONE, & I MEAN FUCKING NO ONE, IS SAFE FROM THE MACHINERY THAT IS FASCIM.

We cannot afford to have people like this hateful bitch, running things.

Time to pick people like Pete Buttigieg as our leadership, not incompetent & hateful assholes who claim to be with us, yet actually are NOT.

@96 " I want to vote for somebody who can FIGHT. Katie Porter can fight and not just turn the other cheek."

Yeah, I want a fighter, too. But I want a fighter who has a chance of winning. We need no more fighters who are going to turn off voters and lose.

Someone that ugly isn’t electable.

[quote]Someone that ugly isn’t electable.

Dang tootin !

I like the cut of her jib.

I live in Southern California. What is this bullshit about her being the "frontrunner" for Governor? I didnt even know she was running.

R1 I love it. You see your representative filming something important and you in the backdrop with that mask on making bacon or some shit. Toughen up buttercup and get the fuck out the shot. It likely made her better at her job.
