Ana Kasparian, co-host of 'The Young Turks,' expressed her disillusionment with the Democratic Party during an appearance on Jillian Michaels’ podcast, describing herself as 'politically homeless.' Her shift away from the party was prompted by a traumatic experience in 2022 when she was sexually assaulted by a homeless man in Los Angeles, followed by backlash from liberals who accused her of misrepresenting the homeless community. Kasparian criticized the left for their intolerance to debate and for promoting soft-on-crime policies, which she believes undermine societal safety. She lamented the 'dogmatic' nature of current political discourse, stating that dissenting views are met with hostility. Kasparian emphasized that the messaging from the Democratic Party infantilizes minorities, thus disempowering them. Her comments resonate with others who feel unwelcome in the party they once supported.
