Glamorous journalist reveals she ditched Dems after they sympathized with homeless pervert who molested her

A glamorous journalist appeared on a popular podcast earlier this week and revealed many reasons why she has turned against her once-defining Democratic party, saying she now feels “politically orphaned.”

Ana Kasparian, 38, host and producer of the online news show The Young Turks, made a guest appearance on Jillian Michaels’ podcast in which she opened up about ditching the Democratic party after they sympathized with a homeless pervert who harassed her in 2022.

The California native opened up about her traumatic experience years ago, saying that while she was walking her dog in Los Angeles, two men – both believed to be homeless and under the influence of drugs – had an erection and grabbed her waist. proceeded to stab it into her body.

Kasparian, who is married to a high school physical education teacher, said the turning point was in her political stance after the alleged assault when she was berated by liberals after admitting she was afraid to leave her home.

“Some of the people I associated myself with because I thought they were the good people… definitely have stereotypes in their heads and are completely blind to the fact that they have those stereotypes and accuse others of being bad actors. when they have to do the work themselves,” she added.

The nearly two-hour podcast went on to detail the two women’s thoughts on the recent political climate, with both claiming that the left is “forcing people to defect.”

Kasparian, who once had ties to the Democratic party, said, “I’m at a point where I don’t want to be pigeonholed into any political tribe or identity.

‘Everything has become dogmatic and if you do not accept the dogma in its entirety, you expose yourself to backlash. It’s not a fun experience,” she added.

The now politically independent journalist took issue with recent attempts to “demonize and even dehumanize the other side” — while admitting that she used to be someone who “I bought the stigma of ‘if you don’t agree with someone politically, it means you can no longer be kind to each other,’” something she attributed to the “Trump era” of politics.

Both women said at the time that they identified with disaffected Democrats who now feel unwelcome in their former party.

“I want to embark on this journey of rejecting political tribalism. I want to feel free to think for myself,” Kasparian said.

“When I finally felt comfortable voicing my concerns about the way the left talks about crime, for example, [I felt as if] they couldn’t wait to clear me. I’m not pure enough, I’m not good enough, you’re not good enough,” she recalled before admitting she had withdrawn from the left-wing party.

Kasparian said she also disagreed with the “defeatist mentality” shown towards minorities, adding that “we should celebrate people who want to improve themselves and their lives,” at a time she said is particularly politically polarizing finds.
