Yovanovitch receives standing ovation at DC jazz club after impeachment testimony

Marie Yovanovitch, the former ambassador to Ukraine, was greeted with a standing ovation from the crowd at a Washington, D.C. jazz club on Sunday night, days after her dramatic congressional testimony in the impeachment inquiry into President Trump.

Lisa Dickey, an author, shared a video of the crowd at Blues Alley Jazz greeting Yovanovitch with cheers and calls of "thank you" as she made her way to her seat.

Dickey added that the audience was in "awe" of Yovanovitch.

"I swear, if she had walked in with Beyonce, everyone would have screamed and run toward the Ambassador," Dickey wrote on Twitter.

I'm so happy that the American people are showing their admiration and thanks for the courage it took for her to stand up for her country. As we're learning more and more every day, plenty of people knew about the criminal acts involving trump and were too afraid of coming forward to spill the beans.

She deserves a standing ovation everywhere she goes.

Patriotism is more than flying a flag or wearing a flag pin.

That was very much an up close and personal encounter. For SURE she felt the love.

We go there occasionally when they have Afro-Cuban jazz.
