Video of Katie Porter screaming at staffer resurfaces

() A video has resurfaced showing California gubernatorial candidate Katie Porter yelling at a staffer during a discussion on environmental policy for the Biden administration.

The video, which was recorded in July 2021, shows a conversation between Porter and then-Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm.

“Get out of my f—— shot!” Porter could be heard saying after a female employee came into view.

The female employee then interjected with a correction to a statement made by Porter. Porter, though, continued her bullying tone, saying, “OK, OK. You also were in my shot before that. Stay out of my shot!”

In recent years, Porter was criticized for mistreating staffers after she was accused of demoting employee Sasha Georgiades, a Navy veteran and Wounded Warrior fellow. Porter claimed Georgiades infected her with COVID-19.

“It’s no secret I hold myself and my staff to a high standard, and that was especially true as a member of Congress,” Porter said in a statement. “I have sought to be more intentional in showing gratitude to my staff for their important work.”

Porter’s ex-husband, Matthew Hoffman, noted in divorce records she would verbally abuse him, throw objects at him, and once poured burning-hot mashed potatoes on him during a fight.

Katie Porter cut CBS interview over Trump voters question

Porter, a former Democratic representative, had also previously attempted to cut short a CBS interview she deemed “unnecessarily argumentative.”

“What do you say to the 40% of California voters, who you’ll need in order to win, who voted for Trump?” CBS News correspondent Julie Watts asked. Porter responded: “How would I need them in order to win, ma’am?”

When asked about her chances of winning over the other 60% of California voters, Porter said she was confident in a general election.

At the time, Porter led the race with 17% percent of the vote in an August poll from the University of California, Berkeley.

Before entering the gubernatorial race, Porter served in the House of Representatives from 2019 to 2025. She ran for U.S. Senate, but was defeated by Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., in the primary.
