Former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard said transgender people competing in women’s sports was one of the matters that led to her leaving the Democratic Party last year.
Gabbard slammed her former political party. She said the “existence of objective truth” is no longer a reality in the Democratic Party on Fox News’s Outnumbered.

“This was absolutely part of it — part of this insanity, where even the existence of objective truth, of basic biology, is now no longer seen as reality and the truth and the biology and what is real versus fantasy. Now it’s whatever those in power want it to be or say that it is,” Gabbard said.
“The harm in the danger coming from this, we are seeing it impact our girls through Title IX,” she continued. “Title IX’s unraveling, but when you look at that underlying threat, when we have people in power who do not accept there is such a thing as truth and they can say the truth is whatever they want it to be, then we see how it impacts every part of our lives.”
Gabbard denounced her former party when discussing the story of a female high school runner missing out on a chance to compete in the state finals for her event by one spot after a transgender runner finished ahead of her.
“What we are seeing here is erasure of women and girls. There is now no such thing as a woman or a girl, and we are seeing the Biden administration working through the administrative state, rather than through Congress, to totally unravel everything that Title IX accomplished,” Gabbard said.
“I introduced legislation with now-Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) when I was in Congress to protect women’s sports,” she added. “There has been new legislation that has passed the House and has not passed the Senate. So for all of these families, if you have little girls and you’re concerned about them, regardless of political party, for their opportunity for their safety, call those Democrats in the Senate: Why don’t you care about our daughters? Why don’t you care about our sisters?”
The former congresswoman also called out the Democratic Party by claiming it is attempting to block voters from having a choice between President Joe Biden and another Democratic presidential candidate, such as Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

“It is all about Joe Biden,” Gabbard said. “I think it reveals their hand. They are deathly afraid of Bobby Kennedy. They will do all they can to pretend like he doesn’t exist, and if he continues to build momentum, they will do everything they can to destroy his candidacy because they don’t want voters to have an actual choice. They don’t want to have a conversation where our president — his record will be examined and criticized.”
Gabbard served as a representative from Hawaii from 2013 until 2021. She publicly announced she was leaving the Democratic Party in 2022, decrying her former party as “under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness.”
