She quit the party ahead of next month\u2019s crucial mid-term elections.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Democrats of today are hostile to people of faith and spirituality. They demonise the police and protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding Americans,\u201d she noted.<\/p>\n<p>Gabbard had found herself increasingly alienated from the Democratic Party following her failed candidacy bid in the 2020 Presidential primary.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Democrats of today believe in open borders and weaponise the national security state to go after political opponents. Above all else, the Democrats of today are dragging us ever closer to nuclear war,\u201d said Gabbard, who was a soldier in the US Army Reserves and veteran of three deployments.<\/p>\n<p>She has also blamed Russia\u2019s military invasion on Ukraine on Biden\u2019s failed foreign policy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI believe in a government that is of the people, by the people, and for the people. Unfortunately, today\u2019s Democratic Party does not. Instead, it stands for a government of, by, and for the powerful elite,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Gabbard urged other members of the Democratic party to follow in her footsteps.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m calling on my fellow common sense, independent-minded Democrats to leave as well. If you can no longer stomach the direction that so-called woke Democratic Party ideologues are taking our country, I invite you to join me,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.hamslive.com\/news\/2022\/10\/tulsi-gabbard-quits-democratic-party-calling-it-woke-party-that-divides\/\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former Congresswoman, first Hindu American to run for the White House Tulsi Gabbard announced that she is leaving the Democratic Party.
