Tulsi Gabbard, the former congresswoman and 2020 presidential candidate, has announced that she will be leaving the Democratic Party, citing the party's disconnect from the needs of the people.

Gabbard's announcement comes after years of increasing tension between her and the party establishment. She has been a vocal critic of the Biden administration's policies, particularly the ongoing war in Ukraine, and has also been criticized for her association with conservative figures.

In a statement, Gabbard said that "the Democratic Party of today is different from the party that I joined many years ago" and that it "is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness." She also said that she will continue to work to "find common ground and build a better future for our country" but that she will do so "outside the two-party system."
