Tammy Bruce has appeared on The O'Reilly Factor, Hannity & Colmes, Today, The G. Gordon Liddy Show, and The Larry Elder Show, among numerous other television and radio programs, and she has been written about in the Los Angeles Times, New York Times, U.S. News & World Report, Human Events, and elsewhere.

Book Synopsis

An openly gay, pro-choice, gun-owning, pro-death-penalty, liberal feminist who voted for Reagan, Bruce was elected president of the Los Angeles chapter of the National Organization of Women in 1990. She accuses the Left of perpetual victimhood, thought and speech control to hold onto their power, and calling in the cops to squash any dissent.
