An incredibly TIGHT, and well-prepared 2 minutes - unmasks the vile TYRANTS on the New York City Council, and also - the Courts that have failed in their duty to Justice, and the aggrieved, thus far...

Kudos to Garrett Ramirez!

Good on you for making a stand, sir.

You will never regret not sacrificing your principles nor your health in not taking there stupid shot.

I was a 20 year NYC DOE teacher forced to resign due to these unconstitutional and illegal mandates. I completely understand where you are coming from and thank you for that powerful speech.. One day justice will be served and those responsible for ruining our careers and lives will be held accountable. Two years ago I moved out of NY where I am "allowed" to be in a classroom unvaxxed, unmuzzled, untested and unafraid. It's amazing how I posed such a danger in a NYC classroom, but no danger in the South. Shame on diblasio and adams and the UFT for not standing up for their union members.

Garrett, the vax mandates were a disgraceful and dark event that persists due to the lack of courage among many of our city's leaders and their only caring about their careers and profits. But the tide is turning!

Wow. Your presentation, clarity, and examples were excellent! Shoving the sick and deadly history of medicine and pharmacology in their faces was brilliant. (Lobotomy anyone?!) I have my own story and battle wounds living in Los Angeles. There are millions of us! Keep fighting. I’ve rallied many in my community to fight along with me too. So many inspiring people— we will win this in the end.

Indeed, kudos to you Garrett Ramirez! I went through similar stress over this & was ready to leave a job I've loved for 30 years but came through with an exemption. This stuff makes my blood boil to this day & New York city will never be the same. Thank you for standing up for what's right & stating it with such eloquence.

To be given only TWO minutes to speak on such a life-altering event is beyond insulting.

Huge personal sacrifices were made to step down from a job; Losing homes, tenure, retirement,

unemployment insurance, the list goes on.

I'm proud of you for having the moral courage and the inner conviction to rise up, stand up, and speak up.

Thank You.

On the other hand, Biden was on vacation 37 percent of the time last year in 2023.

Yes, agreed. I stand corrected.

Recall the lyrics, 'turn off your mind, relax, and float downstream'. If this quote was the name of a club, Biden would be a charter member.

With the combination of psychotropic drugs he's taking, this could explain so much.

A third of my life is writing, writing, writing, and I have a PhD to show for it. But clearly, this man could school us all. Review the greatest prepared speeches, from Demosthenes to MLK, and you aren't going to find, maybe outside Lincoln, a more powerful shorter speech than this one. One for the anthologies, ladies and gentlemen!

Shame on every New Yorker who ever votes for one of these tyranny-mainstreamers ever again. And let justice roll...

Yes! All the yammering I've been hearing about Nazis here & there-- well, who were the real jackbooted fascists of this modern day world? It was-- and is-- the people who imposed, enforced, and still uphold Jab Crow.
