Hidden battle: Centrist group seeks truth behind their failed presidential run
A centrist organization wants answers about who stopped their presidential campaign plans. Legal fights are happening in three courts as democratic-linked groups try to keep their actions private
The well-known centrist group No Labels stopped its third-party presidential plans in 04/24 after facing strong push-back from President Bidens supporters. The groups public image took a hit which made it hard to find good people whoʼd run on their ticket
Now No Labels is pushing back through the legal system - they started document-discovery processes in three different federal courts (trying to find out who worked against them behind-the-scenes). The moderate democratic group Third Way and Reid Hoffmans political group Investing in US dont want to share many papers
The legal battle shows how political groups work in todays system: the moderate-leaning No Labels thinks someone planned their downfall; while democratic-linked organizations (who might have done this to protect Biden) are trying to keep their actions private. Its a complex situation that shows the real-world impact of back-room political moves
