The fallout continues after last week's shocking announcement from Texas State Representative Shawn Thierry, who stunned the left by announcing that she is leaving the Democrat party to join Republicans.
As noted here, Thierry said the Dems went too far left with their radical views, especially with the mutilation of children under the guise of 'gender care for minors', and for continuing to allow biological men to compete in women's sports.
In an exclusive interview with KTRH, Thierry says the switch had nothing to do with losing her primary. The bottom line is, enough is enough.
"I prayed about it, and then I really realized that the Democrat party is completely unyielding with it's views when it comes to children and women" Thierry said, "Their policies have become so radical."
So much so, that Thierry has been receiving overwhelming support - from Democrats!
"When I talk to my colleagues, many of them told me privately that they agree with me" Thierry told KTRH, "But they were too afraid to speak like I did because they did not want someone to run against them the way they ran against me."
In the meantime, Thierry plans to finish out her term which runs through the end of the year, and see what the future holds. She is also launching a new organization to be a voice to help other women.
