“[D]espite my active involvement in the Democratic Party, the concerns I hold regarding the party’s direction in recent years can no longer be ignored,” announced Pierce.
“I love our country,” proclaimed the former Bernie supporter.
“That is why I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party, a party that is focused on dividing us by radicalizing every issue and undermining our rights enshrined in the Constitution,” he continued.

“The weaponization of race and gender identity for partisan political purposes does a significant disservice to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy, and is a detriment to us all,” wrote Pierce.
He explained, “[T]he Democrats’ tendency to label dissenters as extreme, shutting down meaningful discourse, has veered away from the principles I believe are essential for a thriving democracy.”
Pierce also expressed his shift towards a political home aligning with his values and vision for America.
Pierce said, “In looking at the Democratic Party’s vision for an ideal world, a very concerning reality emerges — they imagine a country where dissent from the powers that be results in punishment.”
“As I’ve grown older, my priorities have shifted toward ensuring that my tax dollars contribute to the welfare of our children, support for the less fortunate and a secure national defense,” revealed the former campaigner.
“Unfortunately, the Democratic Party’s current focus involves burdensome taxation, prioritizing foreign aid over domestic needs and accumulating debt that compromises our nation’s security,” lamented Pierce.
“As I reflect on these issues, I am compelled to seek a political home that aligns with a commitment to judging individuals by their character, fostering accountability, and advancing the well-being of all Americans,” admitted the former Democrat.
Concluding, “By joining the Republican Party, I am not abandoning my values. Instead, I’m seeking a political home that aligns more closely with my vision for a free, united, and prosperous America.”
