Tyler Brian Cohen covered her full speech. She absolutely shredded that lady who took the 1ST amendment to outlandish levels.

The power to commit atrocities is given by silence more so than by words. Thank You Senator McMorrow. Peace/JT

These GQP tactics are not done by normal mature adults. There is something wrong with them and I don't want them in my neighborhood.

First the Irish trawlers threatened Russia's boats; now an Irish-descent Legislator does what none of the men would do.
Irish Catholic woman here, and is our duty, as A Catholic to take a stand against Satan.
Too bad that paid and bought Justice Amy Coney Barrett doesn't possess the same spine.
I stand with this legislator .

Amazing speech.. strong people like her need to lead our country

[jfranks]

She is profoundly inspirational. Articulate, intelligent, passionate, and stating the truth. I hope we see much more of her and that she can give other Democrats a kick in the pants to speak with such courage!

🙄😒..
More Democrats need to follow her lead--this is what the voters **want** to hear & see from their incumbents : more fire & more passion..👏👏👏

[jeanniep]

She should sue this woman for defamation or libel, whichever is applicable.

I know American Political chambers always seem to have their internal cameras trained on the podium, but this is one of those times I wish the world could have seen the "object" of Michigan State Senators rebuttal, Michigan State Senator LANA THEIS crawling under her desk in the chamber.

[larrymason]

Never heard from her before she is very well spoken and a strong woman, like her conviction

[Baldgol]

She is fantastic and we need more like her. I hope she runs for higher office.

Mallory McMorrow is an incredibly promising leader. She could reform Congress.
