Jewell became Koresh's youngest "bride" when she was just 10, and would later testify in Congress that Koresh molested her at a motel. She told Primetime she was not upset at the time. "I had been trained from a very early age that this was a good thing," she said.
And then the Clinton DEA burned the children alive
Yeah that's the RWNJ story. Koresh stored many thousands of rounds of ammunition and set the fire himself.
Of course he set it himself. Democrats are never at fault.
Well, the Branch Davidians did set the fires themselves.
Sorry it ruins your story.

For those who don’t remember the findings (or for the GOP cultists who allowed the knowledge to be buried in an anti-Clinton avalanche of lies even back then):
“Although several of the surviving Branch Davidians insist that they did not start the fire, a panel of arson investigators concluded that the Davidians were responsible for igniting it, simultaneously, in at least three different areas of the compound. Unless they were deliberatley set, the probability of the three fires starting almost simultaneously was highly unlikely, according to fire experts. Furthermore, the videotapes show the use of accelerants that strongly increased the spread of the fire. Although one Branch Davidian stated that a FBI tank had tipped over a lantern, videotapes show that the tank had struck the building a minute and a half before the fire began. Also some of the surviving Davidians' clothing showed evidence of lighter fluid and other accelerants. In addition, FBI listening devices seemed to establish that the Davidians were overheard making statements such as, "Spread the fuel," some six hours before the fires began. (Joint Hearing of the Crime Subcommittee July 1995.)” https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/waco/topten2.html
That seditious and treasonous POS Trump would of course stage his rally in Waco. It’s just too deliciously pro-crazy, anti-Democrat and it harkens back to the time when the GOP, always rather suspect (Reagan making arrangements to have Iran hold the hostages, for one example), made the decision to turn toward anarchy and away from responsible governance.

The ATF had intended a sudden daylight raid of the ranch in order to serve a search and arrest warrant, with the element of surprise meant to allow for the quick control of the situation, reducing the risk to all parties that would be associated with the group's members using the large cache of modified weapons and explosive devices they had available. Any advantage of surprise was lost when a KWTX-TV reporter who had been tipped off about the raid asked for directions from a U.S. Postal Service mail carrier who was coincidentally Koresh's brother-in-law. Thus, the group's members were fully armed and prepared; an intense gunfight erupted, resulting in the deaths of four ATF agents and six Branch Davidians.

And while I don't defend Koresh (and I hate Donald Trump), the government F'd the entire thing up, from start to finish and I'm not at all a right winger.
