In a scathing statement, U.S. Army veteran and former Democratic presidential nominee Tulsi Gabbard announced that she’s officially leaving the Democrat Party.

Gabbard slammed Democrats as a party “driven by cowardly wokeness, who divide us by racializing every issue & stoke anti-white racism.”

“I’m calling on my fellow common sense, independent-minded Democrats to join me in leaving the Democratic Party,” Gabbard said.

“I believe in a government that is of the people, by the people and for the people,” she continued. “Unfortunately, today’s Democratic Party does not.”

“Instead, it stands for a government that is of, by and for the powerful elite,” she added.

Gabbard posted a nearly 30-minute video posted to her YouTube account. She did not announce plans to join the Republican Party.

“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 & stoke anti-white racism,” Gabbard said.

Gabbard’s announcement served as the inaugural episode of the Tusli Gabbard Show, a podcast she is now running.

Gabbard has grown increasingly estranged from the Democratic establishment since her failed candidacy in the 2020 presidential primary. She has also become a vocal critic of President Biden, denouncing him for “pouring fuel on the flames” of division in the country.

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich praised Tulsi for ditching the Democrats in a Tuesday statement on Fox News. He argued that she is one of many Americans who traditionally have voted blue but now find the Democrats unrecognizable.

[Gabbard] has always been sort of an independent maverick,” Gingrich said. “And I think when she ran for president, she realized how really isolated she was from the great majority of the Democratic Party, which is now, frankly, a pretty weird party….I think you’re seeing this drift. And we’ve certainly seen among Latinos a huge drift towards the Republican Party as they’re driven away by the weirder policies of the Democratic Party.”
