Tulsi Gabbard announces she is leaving the Democratic Party

Former Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard ran an unsuccessful bid for the Democrat presidential nomination In 2020.

Former Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard announced she is leaving the Democratic Party, denouncing it as an “elitist cabal of warmongers,” while calling upon other “common sense independent minded Democrats” to exit with 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 & stoke anti-white racism, actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms, are hostile to people of faith & spirituality, demonize the police & protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding Americans, believe in open borders, weaponize the national security state to go after political opponents, and above all, dragging us ever closer to nuclear war,” Gabbard said on Twitter.

Gabbard represented Hawaii’s 2nd Congressional District from 2013 to 2021 as a Democrat, and in 2020 she mounted an unsuccessful bid for the party’s presidential nomination. In a video posted to Twitter on Tuesday, she claimed that the party she’s exiting stands for the “powerful elite,” not the people.

“If you can no longer stomach the direction that the so called woke Democratic Party ideologues are taking our country. I invite you to join me,” she said.

Gabbard paired her announcement with the launch of a podcast series on YouTube called “The Tulsi Gabbard Show.” The first upload is a 28-minute episode titled “Why I’m leaving the Democratic Party,” where she details her entrance into the Democratic party as a young person, “inspired by Democrats who stood up against the war in Vietnam” and those who stood up for plantation workers in Hawaii.

Chief among the reasons her 20-year stint as a member of the Democratic Party will be cut short, she said, is her fear that “President Biden and Democratic Party elites have pushed us to the precipice of nuclear war, risking starting World War III and destroying the world as we know it.”

Gabbard said that her entrance into the 2020 presidential cycle was also because of imminent “nuclear holocaust.”

“I ran for president in 2020 because I knew that this is where we were headed. All the signs were there. I raised this issue every single day during the campaign and on the national debate stage for those of you who may have come to a town hall or who were watching, I’m sure you noticed, but the politicians and the media completely ignored it,” she said.

In her announcement and throughout the episode, Gabbard touted a number of traditionally conservative talking points, repeating right-wing rhetoric like “wokeness” and “elites,” and harkening back to phrasing top GOP leaders have regularly circulated.

She accused Democrats for turning American democracy into “a banana republic”– a term widely imparted by Republican leaders, especially to characterize the FBI’s search of former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence in August.

I wouldn’t trust her word. Wait about 3-5 years and see what she does.

“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.”—Marcus Tullius Cicero

“Wait about 3-5 years and see what she does.”

No need.
Tulsi defends Iran and Russia just like Obama did.

She is for the Iran Deal, and is for lifting sanctions – just like Obama and Biden.

She’s works with the Syrian Lobby.

Beware the site “The Hill”. It lures conservatives in with conservative articles, but it is pro-Iran and anti-Israel.

Interesting.

I thought Hyvor was a superior system.

Hyvor is very good, but they became too expensive. Disqus is also too expensive. So Pamela decided to go with native comments, with additional features and styling provided by wpDiscuz.

Howdy Ted,
Thank you for approving my other comment that the automated system held for approval. I think it was approved by _Geller_Report staff, even though it criticized _Geller_Rep’s_ position on Russia. So thank you for allowing free speech on your platform.

I know many of my comments have been critical of GR’s editorial staff for its positions on Russia-Ukraine; since I view Russia as the largest state-sponsor of Islamist terrorism with its funding of Hamas, Iran, Hezzbolah, and Syria.

Or when the site uses RT as a source, since RT is anti-Israel. and I see this as a blind spot which I repeatedly point out in my comments. But thank you again for allowing my comments on Hyvor & the new system.

However, inspite of my disagreements; I believe GR does provide a service to the public in terms of highlighting stories related to Sharia Nationalism & anti-semitism.
Ms. Geller in particular is a courageous person for all the arrows taken exposing them. A true Gryffindor.

I support your work even though we disagree on some issues.
Once again, thank you for providing a forum where free speech and debate thrive.

Everyone have a good day.

It’s too bad that she is leaving the Democratic party. I see her as their only hope!
