EMOTIONAL AND WITTY SPEECH

When she took the stage, Einbinder shared her emotions and humorously recalled that she was used to losing, saying, "I actually believed that continuing to lose was cooler. But this is great too, this is punk rock."

Thanking the creators and team of the series, the successful actress said, "You changed my life in every way. You didn't just give me a job, you became my family," expressing her gratitude. Particularly sending special thanks to her co-star Jean Smart, Einbinder made a significant impact at the end of her speech with her censored words, concluding with, "Freedom for Palestine. Down with ICE" (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement).

STATEMENT TO THE PRESS IN THE GREEN ROOM

After the ceremony, Einbinder answered questions from the press and clarified her emphasis on Palestine, saying, "I thought it was important to talk about Palestine because this issue is very close to my heart. I have doctor friends who work on the front lines in northern Gaza, supporting pregnant women and children in refugee camps. This issue is very important to me for many reasons."

"I HAVE TO SEPARATE MY JEWISH IDENTITY"

The actress also drew attention with her evaluation regarding her Jewish identity, stating, "As a Jew, I feel I need to separate Jews from the State of Israel. Because our religion and culture are a much deeper and separate institution from this ethno-nationalist state."
