1. Said she's been asked for 2 yrs on book tour about parallels between drumpf and jones. Answer: yes

[UTUSN]

2. About "move on" from drumpf: "Tell that to widow"

Said repukes beat up hillary years on benghazi

[Cha]

4. Excellent answer about "widow" &

all the loved ones of those who died in the Deadly Attack on the Capitol Building by the Traitor's cult.

And, about Hillary. How dare they even breathe ".. move on..".

13. I thought you might have.

It was quite riveting and definitely sobering.

14. Thanks sis

16. Colbert always does a great job with interviews, but this one was particularly powerful

It really put the terror experienced by those who experienced the Capitol attack into perspective. Jackie Speier has experienced very real threats to her life before, but what happened on the 6th brought it all back.

19. Jackie was one of the first persons I thought about during the attempted coup

3. They stained us permanently. We're not moving on.

5. Brave and amazing representative

6. Notice that the pukes don't go after Rep Speier

because they know she will clean their clocks.

7. Fixed my spelling. And no they don't dare.

[Nululu]

8. Badass. Shot 5x, left for dead by cultists. Lifelong fighter for oppressed.

9. god i love that woman. there is a special kind of guts that comes of being left for dead.

a steel that is forged in a very hot fire.

15. Thanks much added links to o.p. credited to you

17. Thanks!

I agreed that Jackie Speier's experiences on the 6th was something we all need to hear. I'm hoping that they show excerpts on the news as they often do.

23. Thanks for posting Rhiannon!

Really good to hear what she had to say. As you stated, it was actually chilling.

18. Jackie is one of my favorite people

one very brave woman - so good to see her letting them have it

20. Jim Jones

vs Donald Trump. Lord, never thought of them playing on the same team, but as I reflect, it’s true. They were/are both selling pipe dreams, while taking every red cent people own.

I read The Cult Of Trump.

We have a lot of de programming to do, if we’re even capable.

[KPN]

21. Watch this if you haven't already ... please.

Jackie Speier needs to be called as a witness in the Senate impeachment trial. Her description and views are bone-chilling validation of our greatest fears and feelings about what happened, why, and could happen again if we don’t squelch it — the GOP/Trump cult — now.

24. Jim Jones' people thought she was gone.

They shot her so many times.
