2. Wow. Stark truth

[Baitball Blogger]

3. I always wondered about the way the bodies were laid out at the Jim Jones camp.

It looked like it was so quick, that nobody had the chance to do anything else but keel over. Those were not the bodies of people who had more than mere seconds to react. All of them facing down. Weird.

7. Some of them with their arms around their loved ones.

They went together.

10. And Children Under The Parents

It's why the original count was so grossly low.
The found dozens of children under the dead bodies of their parent(s).

[CaptYossarian]

20. That incident made many forget about Leo Ryan being assassinated.

Has Jackie Speier ever written her autobiography? She was shot there, has been raped, and had the courage and fortitude to become a great member of Congress. She may have beat cancer (I think).

She's as brave as Giffords IMO.

[Hekate]

21. Jackie Speier is incredibly gutsy. We are so lucky to have her.

No Idea if she's written a book, though.

Undaunted: Surviving Jonestown, Summoning Courage, and Fighting Back
by Jackie Speier

An inspiring and powerful memoir of surviving the Jonestown massacre and becoming a fearless voice against injustice and inequality by California congresswoman Jackie Speier.

Jackie Speier was twenty-eight when she joined Congressman Leo Ryan’s delegation to rescue defectors from cult leader Jim Jones’s Peoples Temple in Jonestown, Guyana. Ryan was killed on the airstrip tarmac. Jackie was shot five times at point-blank range. While recovering from what would become one of the most harrowing tragedies in recent history, Jackie had to choose: Would she become a victim or a fighter? The choice to survive against unfathomable odds empowered her with a resolve to become a vocal proponent for human rights.

From the formative nightmare that radically molded her perspective and instincts to the devastating personal and professional challenges that would follow, Undaunted reveals the perseverance of a determined force in American politics. Deeply rooted in Jackie’s experiences as a widow, a mother, a congresswoman, and a fighter, hers is a story of true resilience, one that will inspire other women to draw strength from adversity in order to do what is right—no matter the challenges ahead.

4. At first I thought

They were on the beach in Florida.

[Leghorn21]

26. Good eye, Tbear - your take certainly works

have mercy

[SergeStorms]

5. Ooooh, that's a good one!

So sad that it's the truth, though. Forrest Gump's Momma was correct, "Stupid is as stupid does".

[duforsure]

6. All while trump promotes propaganda

Claiming his greatness. Very similar to how Putin has done in Russia too.

[gab13by13]

8. There's a reason that Trump's 3 favorite countries are;

Russia, Saudi Arabia, and North Korea.

[JHB]

9. Republicanism. Conservatism.

It's not just Trump.

[mountain grammy]

12. Radical Christianity too.

As dangerous as any radical religion.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

13. +1000000

CONservatives have been fighting reality and jockeying for power for decades.

[calimary]

15. Yes they have. For 40-50 years at least.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

18. Yes. And you can't explain it to people who don't keep up with politics.

Or at least I have a terrible time trying to explain to non-politics heads.

36. It ain't like your grandfather's oldsmobile,..

This Fascism is so much better.

You will be real happy with your new purchase.

11. I hate the smell of Guyana in the morning...

Smells like...defeat.
Eff tRump.

14. Fuckin' Bullseye.

Like John Oliver said on his show: In the midst of the worst pandemic in history, our chief executive is the least qualified in history.

[djacq]

16. Saw an Old Lady at Grocery Store with KAG Hat on.

No longer wearing white hoods and robes at night, burning a cross.

They wear a stupid red KAG or MAGA hat in plain daylight.

The hypocrisy of her wearing latex gloves during this pandemic and also wearing that hat which represents Donald Trump. The incompetent idiot, who's reckless mismanagement, might put her further at risk of contracting COVID-19.

I wonder what thought's went through her aged mind as a middle-aged African American man, who's Parents and Grandparents fled Jim Crow South during the Great Migration, looked upon the shameful stupidity of following a racist pig.

I wonder how tighter she wrapped herself in that comfort of white privileged parading that hat around a diverse Grocery Store.

November 3, 2020 can't get here quick enough.

[fwvinson]

31. I want all those tFrumpy's to wear that hat, so I know who they are. I'll never forget or forgive.

[magicarpet]

37. Thems Red Chinese made / AmericKKKa first,....

..MAGA hats are like a radar screen blip.
It just keeps getting louder and louder the closer you get.

It is like an early warning devise to alert you
that a fucking Nazi is near,...

Code Red,.... Panic Alert,... Defcon Level 7.

[orleans]

35. wow--

i'm wondering where this was (not that it really matters--there are assholes like that everywhere)

[crickets]

19. The image is a truth punch to the gut.

[Hekate]

22. I gasped

What an image

[warmfeet]

23. Republicans choose death.

I'm on the other side.

[Nululu]

24. Good cartoon

Just need the 100,000 or so corpses he can stand on. MAGAman.

[Trueblue Texan]

27. chilling, because it's true.

[2naSalit]

28. Amen.

[FailureToCommunicate]

29. I prefer Presidents that don't let tens of thousands die.

[la-trucker]

30. It is worse

The republican leaders are supporting Trump knowing full well that he is stupid, vile, incompetent and unfit. They don't need any koolaid. They are doing it consciously with cold-blooded calculation.

[magicarpet]

38. To the Fascists Capitalists,... they love him,...

He is a Sharpie pResident,...

Who loves to scribble his name for them, on their dotted lines.

[ancianita]

32. Right. Well ...

Fuck that.

[calimary]

34. Dayum. Maybe the cartoon of the year!

Or the last several years.
