The traditional conservative party has been overrun with Koch/Mercer funded libertarians. They have an agenda that has nothing to do with democracy - and have made huge inroads creating an oligarchy in its place. They don't negotiate and they take no prisoners, and more than anything, they don't like to share--money and resources.

Repealing the Ban on Government Research on Gun Violence is Long Overdue

Whether or not one political party believes in science and facts shouldn't deter the rest of us, who live in the real world, to focus our attention and energy on getting this ridiculous ban repealed.
