The Independent Center Welcomes Karine Jean-Pierre and Elon Musk to the Independent Revolution
Washington, DC – On the heels of an epic online dust-up between President Trump and Elon Musk, Senior Advisor to the Independent Center, Adam Brandon, had this to say:
“Folks, this is it. We are witnessing the independent movement in America take off.
In the last couple of days, the dissatisfaction and disillusionment with both Republicans and Democrats has come to a head. We’ve seen Karine Jean-Pierre leave the Democratic Party and declare her independence, and now Elon Musk is wondering aloud whether it’s “time to create a new political party in America that actually represents the 80% in the middle?”
Welcome to the revolution, Karine and Elon. Next year, voters will find more independent candidates on their ballots than ever before – whether it’s for Governor, Senate, or the House, independents running for high office will be the biggest storyline of 2026.
And not a moment too soon. The people are sick of politics as usual. They’re sick of the same two choices. They’re sick of the failures, the blame game, and the excuses. The independent revolution started from the ground up. But it certainly doesn’t hurt to have big names like Elon and Karine in your corner.”
