Former Democrat Presidential Candidate Tulsi Gabbard Says Leaving The Democratic Party

Yahoo

(Yahoo) Tulsi Gabbard says she is leaving the Democratic Party.

In a video posted to Twitter, the former U.S. congresswoman from Hawaii — who mounted an unsuccessful campaign for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination — said she can “no longer stomach” the direction that “woke Democratic Party ideologues are taking our country.”

 

“I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party that’s under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers,” Gabbard said, “who are driven by cowardly wokeness who divide us by racializing every issue and stoking anti-white racism, who actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms that are enshrined in our Constitution, who are hostile to people of faith and spirituality, who demonize the police but protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding Americans who believe in open borders, who weaponize the national security state to go after their political opponents and above all, who are dragging us ever closer to nuclear war.

“Now I believe in a government that’s of the people, by the people and for the people,” Gabbard continued. “Unfortunately, today’s Democratic Party does not. Instead it stands for a government that is of, by and for the powerful elite.”

The 41-year-old U.S. Army Reserve officer, who represented Hawaii’s Second Congressional District from 2013 to 2021, said she is calling on “fellow common sense, independent-minded Democrats” to join her in leaving the party.

She posted a similar, lengthy statement explaining her departure online.
