Rep. Katie Porter Can Explain Anything: Inflation, GO!  
Podcast: The Weekly Show with Jon Stewart
Published On: Wed Nov 02 2022
Description: This week we’re talking to Rep. Katie Porter, the Democratic congresswoman from California’s 47th district, who wields her whiteboard 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 blows our minds about why political ads never show members of Congress doing actual work. Plus, we’ve got writers Jay Jurden and Alexa Loftus here talking about Elon Musk’s Twitter takeover. Stream our newest episode, “Allies: Friends Without Benefits, ” starting November 4 on Apple TV+!Credits:Hosted by: Jon StewartFeaturing, in order of appearance: Jay Jurden, Alexa Loftus, Rep.
