Katie Porter: "The point of hearings is not for politicians to talk. It's for the American people...

Just now on Chris HAyes.
She is so good! And who better than a financial expert to be on the finance committee. Bet she's making a lot of people really nervous. She will be another ELizabeth Warren.

I generally hate hearings because far too many congresscritters--even the ones I like!--spend their time pontificating instead of Getting To The Point. I don't wanna hear speeches, I want to air out the facts.
