NYP: The former husband of Rep. Katie Porter said the California Democrat frequently abused him verbally and threw “toys, books and other objects” at him during their marriage — even pouring scalding-hot mashed potatoes on his head during a fight, according to divorce records.
Matthew Hoffman, who filed for divorce from Porter in 2013, said in a request for a restraining order dated April 30 of that year that he was “routinely” called a “f—ing idiot” and “f—ing incompetent” by his rage-prone spouse, who also shattered a glass coffee pot on their kitchen counter in March 2012 when she felt their house wasn’t clean enough.
“She would not let me have a cell phone because she said, ‘You’re too f—ing dumb to operate it,’” Hoffman said of Porter, 49, who has also been accused of ridiculing former members of her staff.
“When she gets angry, she will claw and scratch her arms and then say to me ‘Look what you made me do!’” Hoffman also said in the records, first obtained by DailyMail.com. “She regularly says that I am a bad parent in front of the kids … Recently the children began spitting at me and throwing their food at me, calling me ‘bad daddy.’”
In 2006, Hoffman said, Porter took issue with how Hoffman was preparing mashed potatoes for dinner, asking him: “Can’t you read the f—ing instructions!” Then, her ex-husband said, Porter raised a “ceramic bowl of steaming hot potatoes and dumped it on my head, burning my scalp.” MORE
For those not familiar with this deplorable butt-ugly wildebeest, youtube has a number of clips where she is being disrespectful to witnesses in front of her committees.
So we get a choice of this creature or Adam Schiff. Gee, why not throw Maxine Waters into the mix?
She should have been happy with his mashed potatoes….He was just trying to find her wet spot….
It’s to be expected.
She’s always within 3 feet of some kind of food substance…
Hillary threw anything and everything in the White House that wasn’t nailed down at Bill, and they’re still together. She must have pictures of him and Epstein at Pedo Island.
A little bit of mustache and Katie Porter would be a dead ringer for the ‘spinster’ librarian at my old High School.
She sounds like a typical progressive woman. And he sounds like a typical progressive husband. Did he get his testicles back in the property settlement?
She looks like Mags Bennett from Justified, if Mags came off of a 48-hour bender.
Here’s a good topic of discussion; Ava or Winona?
Ava hands down.
Pure sex appeal.
Not sure how many here have seen Justified?
I may watch all 5 seasons again, for the 6th time…
Justified, one of maybe three of the best series in the history of television.
I have to agree, Ava, but for a couple of different reasons. Both get the Captain to attention before you can say ,”Officer on deck”, but Ava just seems a bit more feminine. You know she can cook, she is more agreeable, more pleasant to be around, and that southern accent, DAMN!!
Oh, gawd. I remember her now. Ya’ll made me DuckDuck the bitch and look at pictures of her. Thanks a lot.
GM, her corpulent ass has been all over the news because she is hawking a book.
Fat gurl gotta eat too ya know…
Rage like that stems from abandonment issues or some other childhood trauma.

Ms. Porter should avail herself of His services.
Never stick you dick in crazy and never marry a democrat especially a fat piggish one.
“This spuds for you.”
Didn’t look it up, however . . .
This may be a clue
Wasn’t there some random mashed potato back in the days?
It was a real mystery.
If someone were to track that aspect down, maybe the husband was sending secret calls for help. This could bolster his standing in Court. Does anybody else recall that case of the random mashed potato bowls?
I would have buried my fist in her face long ago.
Weird, I couldn’t stand Megs and her accent. I’m a woman, what do I know?
In the mean time I looked at the link and Holy Cow! this Porter chick is hideous! Why would a man tolerate abuse from such a fugly monster? I thought she’d be cute or gorgeous. Woof!
A nice 20 Oz Framing Hammer with a Hickory Handle for that Classic “Feel”.
Like an old Telecaster, Eh?
“She would not let me have a cell phone because she said, ‘You’re too f—ing dumb to operate it,’”
He needed her permission to get a cell phone?
Maybe he is too fucking dumb.
If he was married to her more than two or three days, he IS a fucking idiot.

izlamo delenda est …
I see NIdahoCatholic’s has had their handle hijacked by the scammers. Hey Fur: can’t this be stopped?
@Tim -FJB: if he courted and married that thing, he is a fucking idiot.
Wow! A version of Edith Bunker if she was a psycho sadistic, paranoid, abusive, leftist grifting harpy.
that’s a dude
She’s a TOTAL borderline.
Been there, done that. Sadly! Not fun.
