Political Breakdown

Did Katie Porter Just Crash Out?


Listen Later

A video of gubernatorial frontrunner Katie Porter threatening to end an interview preceded other leaks and criticisms of the former congresswoman. Marisa and Guy are joined by The Sacramento Bee reporter Kate Wolffe to discuss what made the video go viral and how it's shaking up the 2026 governor's race.

Plus, they discuss Wolffe's recent investigation on Republican Assembly Leader Heath Flora, who she reported has enjoyed the benefits of power and routinely ignored questions about his conduct.
