Tulsi Gabbard: 'I can no longer remain in today's Democratic Party'

Former Democratic congresswoman and 2020 presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard announced Tuesday that she is leaving the Democratic Party, effective immediately, and is calling on other “common-sense” Democrats to join her.

“​​I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party that is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness, who divide us by racializing every issue ​and stoke anti-white racism, actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms​ that are enshrined in our Constitution,” Gabbard said in a searing video posted on Twitter.

An Army Reserve officer and the first Hindu member of Congress, Gabbard said the Democratic Party leaders “actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms” and are “hostile to people of faith and spirituality.”

“[They] demonize the police but protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding Americans,” Gabbard said.

Gabbard represented Hawaii’s 2nd congressional district as a Democrat from 2013 to 2021. Now she says the leaders of her former party are those “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.”

I believe in a government that’s of the people, by the people, and for the people. Unfortunately, today’s Democratic Party does not. Instead, it stands for a government that is of, by, and for the powerful elite. I’m calling on my fellow common-sense, independent-minded Democrats to join me in leaving the Democratic party. If you can no longer stomach the direction that the so-called ‘woke’ Democratic party ideologues are taking our country, then I invite you to join me.
