“I am not here as a serf or vassal. I am not begging my lords for mercy.”

Then why did you bow before the government and request that a muzzle be placed on their Free Speech Rights? This is exactly what 501 tax exempt status is...a MUZZLE!

.....she had me doing a Marv Albert “YESSSSSSS” on that line today...

She made me proud to be an American. All of them did. REAL Americans doing what REAL AMERICANS do!

“Faltered” is being kind and polite.

She was magnificent!

She had the BALLS to stand in the face of her government and tell them no more!

Which is a lot more than I can say for the nutless GOP.

Response by the White House: Audit her, personally

Thanks for the link.

Incredible speech by a true Patriot.

Back in the day, this used to be called speaking truth to power. More of this is bound to happen, until truth wins, as it always does--even if in the meantime, as James Russell Lowell wrote,

Careless seems the great Avenger; history’s pages but record
One death-grapple in the darkness ’twixt old systems and the Word;
Truth forever on the scaffold, Wrong forever on the throne,—
Yet that scaffold sways the future, and, behind the dim unknown,
Standeth God within the shadow, keeping watch above his own.
