Women’s magazines completely ignore conservative women

InStyle has announced its “Badass 50 2020: Meet the women who are changing the world” list. In addition to people such as actress Dakota Johnson, Today co-anchors Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb, and country singer-songwriter Kacey Musgraves, the list includes three legislators: Nancy Pelosi, Katie Porter, and Deb Butler. All three are Democrats.

InStyle didn’t include one elected Republican politician. Why? It’s not that Republicans don’t have “badass” women among them. Think about Sen. Martha McSally of Arizona. She was the first female fighter pilot to fly in combat. You don’t get more “badass” than that. But because she isn’t a Democrat, she didn’t make the cut.
