ARIZONA (LifeSiteNews) – Former Hawaii Democratic congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard announced her support for Kari Lake, the Republican gubernatorial candidate in Arizona.

Lake has the endorsement of President Donald Trump and is running against Katie Hobbs, the current Democratic Secretary of State.

The endorsement comes a week after Gabbard, who once chaired socialist Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign in 2016, announced she was officially leaving the Democratic Party.

“For too long establishment leaders from both parties have sought to enrich themselves, play games, and build up their power while ignoring and even enabling the suffering of millions of hard-working Americans,” Gabbard announced Tuesday on Twitter. “Kari Lake is a leader who puts people first, is fighting for border security, energy independence, public safety, and other policies that actually make life better and more affordable for the American people.”

“Kari Lake isn’t afraid to call out the warmongering elitist cabal of permanent Washington and the Military Industrial Complex, and their propagandists in the mainstream media,” she tweeted. “I look forward to supporting  @KariLake ahead of these critical midterm elections.”

Gabbard has at times broken from her party on issues like the chemical mutilation of children, but while in Congress she was a reliable vote in support of abortion and LGBT issues.

She recently campaigned in New Hampshire for Trump-backed Don Bolduc, who is running for the U.S. Senate.

Gabbard also frequently appears on Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s show.
