Tulsi Gabbard Leaves Democratic Party: 'Elitist Cabal of Warmongers'

Former congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard has left the Democratic Party, branding its leadership "an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness."

Gabbard, who unsuccessfully stood for the Democratic Party presidential nomination in the 2020 election, made the announcement with a video posted on Twitter, in which she accused the Democrats of stoking "anti-white racism," and "dragging us ever closer to nuclear war."

She also announced the launch of The Tulsi Gabbard Show, with the first 28-minute episode titled "Why I'm leaving the Democratic Party" uploaded to YouTube.

Explaining her decision to leave Gabbard said: "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, 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.
