She has my vote too. @Kimberly you are so right. I wish there was some way Katie & her brain trust staff could go through so much more AND get it fixed. It’s funny how the GQP can ‘find’ money to pad their rich friends’ wallets; however, when the public asks for a national healthcare plan, the GQP scream, rant, & rave about it being a socialist program that’s UnAmerican. Of course they also claim the country is too broke. In other words, 1: we shouldn’t make certain our veterans are properly cared for even though these brave men & women volunteered to join our military; they signed up to give their all, even their lives to protect this country. 2: politicians are the only ones who deserve the best healthcare, not US citizens who live paycheck to paycheck, often working without ANY health insurance because they can’t afford the premiums & they certainly can’t afford to pay out of pocket. 3: the GQP scream at the top of their lungs that national healthcare is socialist. It’s not! It isn’t the definition of socialism. The UK is a democracy. Their citizens pay a little higher taxes; however, they don’t have to fear going to the doctor because they can’t afford the visit. Healthcare for all would drastically reduce the number of citizens becoming disabled bc they couldn’t afford healthcare.

Rep. Katie Porter is exactly what this country needs. The Military has never been held accountable for anything they do.

OK this should be incorporated into every senate hearing - love it

The way she said "Mr. Mansfield" and then stared at him with the "You're gonna play my game whether you want to or not, now pick a category" was too good.

The worst part is the DoD shelling out billions to the private sector, who lobby for this spending, while the small fry soliders sailors and airmen are severely under funded and lack the manpower to maintain accountability for assets.

She shows up with facts. Creative, inventive and bursting with enthusiasm for the people she serves. Run for Prez Katie. We love you.

Thank you for holding these folks accountable! You are an absolute powerhouse. Keep that momentum going.

This was pure gold. I don't care which party you associate with.

Katie" No Quarter" Porter is picking them up and putting them down. A true powerhouse for the American people, not the corporations

Haha! KP is amazing. That she got them to play along was hilarious and she highlighted so many wrongs in the DOD. DOD needs a financial watchdog that actually has some teeth. I don’t understand how these failing programs continue.

Because, if you've ever had a passion project maybe you'll relate, America's military might prevents attacks on our soil by silently/expensively assuring the deletion of any adversary. Also the DoD provides tons of support to other countries. Albeit there have been terrible wastes and rash decisions, but there's a lack of oversight on spending because of the NEED. I have become educated sufficiently enough to know that we need more oversight but also we need a big budget. I will vote locally for people who share this mindset. I suggest you do that

We met the enemy and he is us. We ask for bases in our district to stay open. If you made a mistake and built billion dollar littoral combat vessels just admit it and scrap them, the real waste goes to military salaries,when they are not effective. It turns out,all this weapons we thought we so sexpensve,the Javelins $100K for the launcher $80 K for each missile,$80K for each Excaliber artillery shell, $40K for each HIMARS missile, $70 million for each F-35 but it turns out,all these years later, we were getting a bargain, it is the Russians and Chinese who get little for their defense dollars, so the pentagon, gave us great value for our money. look at all those Russian tanks with their currents flying, money well spent.

Because the industrial military complex spends tens of millions of dollars each year lobbying congress to keep these programs alive. Please stop using the “we need to spend to protect from Russia and china” excuse Russia can’t even take a country the size of texas and china lacks the logistic capability to wage war on any one east of the Indian Ocean. Nuclear weapons are the only thing that levels the playing field against the U. S. In a conventional war USA easily mops the floor against either country

We need to make sure anyone running for a position, in government should know the Constitution. They also should know about the job they are running for president on down. Everyone should pay the cup just like we do if you want to be a dishwasher. Have a background check, a moral compass.

My favorite Congress person. First politician that I ever donated to. Keep doing what you do so well, Katie! ❤ her

😂 This is just amazing. Mad props Lady Porter!

Rep. Porter is a true teacher. She is willing to use visual aids to their best possible effectiveness--to educate in memorable ways. I suspect that the witnesses nor the public will forget the shamefully inadequate responses of the contestants.

Right on! I love what she does! We need an entire congress thinking like her!

I love her! Imagine if all congress members and all senators were this well researched. We would be the most informed country in the world, and the happiest.

You just got to love and admire this woman! Go Katie! 🎉❤

You are amazing, Ms Porter. I am 62 years old and would love to see you run for president. You are wonderful keep up the good work.

Thank you FUTURE PRESIDENT Katie Porter !!!

No matter how much negligence and incompetence done by all government agencies, nobody ever will be held accountable. EVER !

I love her, she is exactly who the world needs now ❤

How people can not vote for Katie is amazing! Imagine if everyone in Washington were like her!

Watching Katie Porter force defense contractor executives play her game, JeoparDoD, is better than any skit I've seen on SNL in a long, long time. She should host the show, hold real hearings *lol*

I love how they actually start playing along and not only get them right, but answer in more detail than was expected lol

I absolutely love her. She’s so awesome. She’s so thorough and she explains it so well anybody can understand Katie Porter and she tells the truth. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Out of billions of people on the planet, how did our country get so lucky to have her in our government?

I love Katie Porter! A national treasure.

so 61% of the the defense budget is unaccounted for?! WHERE IS IT?! WHERE DID ALL THAT MONEY GO?! i cannot believe that millions... wait... BILLIONS of dollars have gone MISSING and no one is looking for it or making a big deal about it in the national news. WHAT IS GOING ON? have we all lost our minds to be so casual about this? why would i pay taxes if so much of it will just be... LOST!!???!!!!

I love Katie Porter. If all our leaders were like her, this place would be a utopia.

Katie, the only person that can call out bureaucrats playing games, by making them play a game! Love It ❤ Katie you are a national treasure!.

I LOVE Katie Porter. May she never lose that white board!!!

I LOVE love LOVE that Katie Porter uses entertaining and engaging ways to spank and educate those that are failing their constituents or America on the whole. If only we could fill all of the seats with like minded thinkers we could really get all of the messes in these United States cleaned up and have a truly efficient and effective government. The is the best!

America needs more elected officials like Rep. Porter. She is not afraid to call out greedy p***ks .

I love how the witnesses actually got into the spirit of the game!😂

In fairness, a lot of this stuff probably frustrates them, too. But in a broken system, it’s easier to be most frustrated by whatever is not on their turf in a turf war.
