Just as Tulsi Gabbard (Iraq War Veteran, former Democrat Rep. Hawaii, 2nd District, popular 2016 Democrat Presidential candidate) was explaining that she was leaving the Democrat party because of its “cowardly wokeness” that “racializes every issue” and divides Americans, former President Barack Obama was speaking to Europeans at the Copenhagen Democracy Summit in a closed door session and racializing the fact that many Republicans have the audacity to disagree with him,

I’d put her up against Nancy and Schmuckie in a debate any day.

—> Just show me when she’s actually called for the slaughter of any babies will ya?
She called it by the polite name “abortion”
You said nothing she’s ever said counts…
I think right now she is waking up some of those rank and file Democrats who haven’t been paying attention to what the party has become. When she says “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 [in leaving the party].” I think she’ll get some takers.

Hannity:
Gabber joins us now to explain more good this year. Congresswoman, I don’t know if you were still, want to be called congresswoman but thanks for being here. Let’s talk first about the reaction of your fellow Democrats to your announcement. What’s the reaction been?
Gabbard:
I got to be honest, I’ve heard directly from a couple who have been encouraging and gave me good feedback. I’ve heard a lot of expected, hatred and vitriol coming from the mainstream media establishment in Washington, the permanent Washington, the Democratic party Elite, all trotting out, the same old tired criticisms that have nothing to do with substance and this has been part of the problem, all along that I talked about in my announcement, why I’ve left the party is because this party is now controlled by fanatical ideologues who don’t believe in Freedom Sean, they don’t believe that we can have different opinions.
They don’t believe that I, or you, or anyone should have the right to express our views if they disapprove of what those views are, and they will seek to smear us, criticize us, silence us work with big Tech to censor us and suppress these god-given freedoms that are enshrined in our Constitution, and the danger of that is when you have a political party that does not believe in Freedom. That is in power. They have the ability to use the force of the government and law enforcement to enforce that suppression and the undermining of our freedoms.
Hannity:
in that speech paid, very close attention to what you were saying. it’s called for more be canceled. You spoke about the importance of Defending, what it means to be a woman. You talked about those that deny biological differences between a man. And a woman are not only erasing women as a category of people. But they are denying the existence of objective reality and truth. And you even went further and you have woke politicians and a Supreme Court Justice who are unable and unwilling. To Define what a woman is or defend women’s sports when female athletes object to competing against biological males. This you thought long hard and deeply about these positions before you did this. So what is the reaction to that? Because I would imagine in this world world probably that sparked a lot of backlash and anger. Also.
Gabbard:
it sparked a lot of backlash and anger from the expected places from these very same So-called woke fanatical ideologues that are in control of today’s Democratic party. But Sean, I also want to share that. I got a lot of messages from both people, I know, but even more from people, I’ve never met from across this country, who expressed hope in their reaction, who felt embolden and inspired that they to don’t have to self-censor and cower in the corner, for fear of, you know, being canceled or smeared or losing their job, they created this Culture of Fear. We need more people to step up and we believe in our freedom of speech. We have to step up and use it, and go out and vote accordingly in this next election, which is why I’ve invited Democrats, who feel as sick as I do about Today’s Democratic party, leave move forward and put our country first.
Hannity:
Let’s talk a little bit more about you and what led up to this decision. And how do you how do you now? Define yourself politically and do you have political Ambitions moving forward?
Gabbard:
I am an independent and I am focused on two main things. It is continuing to fight for the freedoms that are under attack in this country and continuing to hold our leaders feet to the fire, President Biden. And his allies in Congress who are pushing us to the brink of nuclear war, placing our future, the future of the American people, Humanity, in the world at risk. These are the things that I’m asking voters to consider as they go towards the poles. Because if we do nothing, if we just stand By and allow President Biden to continue to push us over the brink of nuclear war. We may not be a tomorrow or next month or next year. These are the most important things right now.
Hannity:
I know people have criticized you for your comments about what is happening in Ukraine and Vladimir Putin, Etc. Vladimir Putin now is bombing civilian Targets in discriminately killing innocent men, women and children. And I would argue first that it should be Western Europe’s problem more than ours. They’re not a Member of NATO, Ukraine and now he’s threatening nuclear. I’ve been so, my question to you is, what should America’s role in the world Be when you have a hostile actor or Thug, and a murderer of innocent women and children, in this case Putin, what should the world’s reaction be? And what should Americas reaction be? How should we do? We stand by, and say that’s your problem or do we have a moral obligation of say, We’re not going to let anybody kill innocent men, women and children?
Gabbard:
First I’ll say, President Biden has been enacting policies and actions that have further escalated this war rather than exercising, the opportunity and responsibility that he has as the president of theUnited States to work to bring these parties together. Deescalate and come to a negotiated peaceful solution. Now, some will say, well Tulsi, that’s impossible, that’s naive to think about. I will Point those people back to the words that president President Kennedy,
Hannity over talking Gabbard:
we can have a dialogue about it.
If you look at it, though, he invaded a sovereign country. Yes, he’s claiming it to be his own. If anyone said, Hawaii is ours. I think I know that’s your home state. I don’t think you would like that. And you would want America to, America to come defend You, wouldn’t you?
Gabbard:
Well, Hawaii is a part of the United States. So, yes, that would be a problem for the United States.
Hannity over talking Gabbard:
One of the nicest parts of the United States and you separate apart. I don’t blame you, but do we. In other words, when somebody invades our country and kills innocent men, women and children.
Does the world have an obligation of stop it early and 40 given to nuclear blackmail. Somebody could just say, oh, I’m going to do, give if you dare support Ukraine or or whatever country, it happens to be
Gabbard:
the path that we are on has been escalating and making this war.
Hannity wouldn’t let Let Gabbard finish.

YES.
Sanders is a Communist. Never forget that.
And Dementia Joe isn’t?
Never said he wasn’t.
All Dems are Commies.
Always have been.
If you can believe the count, they vote Dem.
Any intelligent Freeper knows that on every issue aside from one or Tulsi is hard left.
You are the liberal, pushing a baby killer and gun grabber.
You really are trolling too hard.
***********
Since when is pointing out FACTS trolling? Everything I said about her is verifiable.
I could have easily expanded on the list of questionable things about her dubious past. You and Tucker seem to be infatuated with her.
Except I countered your “facts” with my own much more potent facts in post # 26 and I quote from me:
“Not sure how old you are, but Reagan was a tough, left wing union leader who led his union on a long brutal strike, and he actually became the governor of California TWICE long before he became a Republican President.
I don't care if Tulsi is from Hawaii. That makes it even more impressive that she left the Democratic Party. Takes guts.
And you forget to mention she served in the military and actually fought in Iraq.”
You put the word facts in quotes??? Really? Now that’s the most defensively desperate thing I’ve ever see.
I quoted from my post # 26 as I made clear.
You wanna try again Mister Dem Troll?
As for Reagan, he would never have endorsed a lunatic socialist like Bernie Sanders. Only a complete fool would do that. To wit, here's Tulsi Gabbard's direct quote in support of his candidacy:
“The stakes are just too high. That’s why today I’m endorsing Senator Bernie Sanders to be our next president and commander in chief of the United States.”
Another fact/quote I'd like to see you try to disprove.
I already have.
Not my fault you can't read is it?
Not my fault you can’t read is it?

Right back to your cheap ad hominem attacks again. Its obvious that’s all you got.
Pointing out the obvious fact that you simply can't read or pretend not to be able to read is not “ad hominem attacks”.
