The game is up! Rush Limbaugh finally admitted what the rest of us already knew: GOP "conservatives" don't actually care about fiscal conservativism at all and have just been using their fake outrage to oppose funding popular programs and services while encouraging more upper-class tax cuts.
These are the most exciting, dangerous, complex, strange times in history. This blog is my attempt to navigate through it.

The number of women in the Republican Party should be zero
Republican congressional candidate Joan Perry (NC-3) lost to Greg Murphy in their primary last week.
In a recent PBS NewsHour interview, AZ Republican Debbie Lesko said she recognized the lack of gender representation in the GOP and hoped many more women would be elected as Republicans soon. "That's a nice sentiment," I thought. "Gender equality in politics is severely lacking, so more women in the GOP would be a great improvement even if I wouldn't vote for them."
But that is the wrong answer.
For decades, the Republicans have actively undermined women's reproductive rights, workplace rights, pay equity and standing as full citizens. Their policies harm most working class people but disproportionately harm women. And their party leader, with over 90% approval rating among Republicans, is a serial sexual predator and career misogynist.
The number of women in the Republican Party should be zero.
