5/1/25 – : The Association of Mature American Citizens (AMAC) Book Club is excited to announce that Fear Itself: Exposing the Left's Mind-Killing Agenda by Tammy Bruce has been selected as our Book of the Month for May. This choice reflects our commitment to fostering insightful discussion and reflection among our members on significant cultural and political topics.

In "Fear Itself," Tammy Bruce offers a bold critique of the tactics employed by the political left to instill fear among the public, arguing that this strategy undermines individual thought and societal cohesion. Bruce, a renowned author and political commentator, uses her expertise to dissect the implications of fear-driven politics and encourages readers to question and reclaim their autonomy in the face of manipulative narratives.

"We are thrilled to offer our members a book that challenges conventional perspectives and sparks thoughtful debate," said Rebecca Weber, CEO of AMAC. "Tammy Bruce's incisive analysis is sure to inspire lively discussion and deep reflection among our readers."

About Tammy Bruce

Tammy Bruce, an Independent Conservative, has traversed a unique political journey that reflects her commitment to principles rather than party affiliations. Initially a lifelong Democrat, Bruce actively participated in Democratic campaigns in the 1990s. However, in 2008, she broke away from the party, registering as unaffiliated. Leveraging her background as a liberal community organizer, she now dedicates herself to exposing and challenging the leftist agenda. Despite her Democratic roots, Bruce has consistently supported conservative figures, including Presidents Reagan and both Bushes. It was the transparent and direct approach of Donald Trump, coupled with his love for the country, that prompted her to become an ardent supporter, a commitment she maintains. A vocal advocate for free speech and the Second Amendment, Bruce’s extensive experience as a radio talk show host, notably with the nationally syndicated “Tammy Bruce Show,” has shaped her views and contributed to her active role in political commentary. She joined Fox News in 2005 as a Political Contributor, hosting her show on Fox Nation and providing insightful commentary on various issues for the Association for Mature Americans (AMAC). She is currently serving as spokeswoman for the Department of State.
