25:13Now PlayingRick Wilson and Stuart Stevens unpack the hidden history of gay power brokers inside Republican politics—and the contradiction at the heart of the GOP’s modern anti-LGBTQ culture war.
Drawing on decades inside Republican campaigns, they revisit the story of Mississippi congressman Jon Hinson, strategist Arthur Finkelstein’s role in shaping culture-war politics, George W. Bush’s 2004 push for a constitutional ban on same-sex marriage, Dick Cheney’s response to his daughter’s relationship, and the party’s continuing fixation on LGBTQ Americans. The result is a candid look at hypocrisy, repression, political ambition, and the human cost of a party at war with itself.
