You can choose a ready guide
In some celestial voice
If you choose not to decide
You still have made a choice
You can choose from phantom fears
And kindness that can kill
I will choose a path that’s clear
I will choose free will.

Hasn't this group been discussed before? Pretty sure it's a conservative funded (Koch brothers?) attempt to spread out the moderate vote, clearing the way for Trump’s locked in 40% of the vote to prevail. But go on thinking those warm altruistic thoughts.
Dont fall for the “aw shucks we are just centrist moderates” schtick from “No Labels”

Here is their roster:

Yes. My recollection of koch bros was actually Harlan Crow (Clarence Thomas’s benefactor) but only a small sliver of the donor group is known because most are hiding their identity through dark money PACs. What is known is that they continue to work in coordination with extreme right wing candidates and related political movements.
That doesn't sound like a national movement of “moderates” to me but you're free to draw your own conclusions.
We will never know as secrecy is the norm of the No Labels Party.
No Labels insists its work addresses the concerns of voters who have become disillusioned with modern American politics and the partisanship of each side. Yet it sticks with the cynical and common tricks of the trade and eschews transparency and accountability, cloaking the moneybags who underwrite its operation. The list of donors found in the IPFA filing covers only a modest fraction of the money that has so far flowed into this No Labels venture; it is a small slice of the $70 million the group is aiming to collect for its 2024 plan.
The lion’s share of the money that has moved in and out of IPFA has not been disclosed in its filings with the IRS, and there is no telling whether the listed donors are representative of the organization’s overall sources of financing. Most of the funding for No Labels’ 2024 project remains secret, as this group that claims to be addressing popular disenchantment continues to use the same-old tactics of big-money politics and keeps the voters in the dark.
I didn’t click on the link but it’s really hard to take this seriously when their first proposal is almost certainly unconstitutional.

No Budget, No Pay!
It's a measure that will hit lawmakers where it hurts – their pocketbooks. It’s called "No Budget, No Pay," and the premise is simple: if Congress can't pass a budget on time, then they shouldn't receive their salaries until they do. We first proposed this in 2011 in our "Make Congress Work!" action plan.
Yep, they are no friend of the average person
What's the point? If the Rs cant elect a Speaker, pass healthcare, infrastructure, or deal responsibly with our debt obligations, then how on Earth would they willingly pass a pay cut?

What are examples of extremes on the left of which we are supposed to be tired? What left anything has this country implemented in the past 50 years?
So, who is funding them? Certainly a common sense group like No Labels will be transparent and let us know who is funding their efforts.
Putin funded to split vote for the GQP. Period
Why? You can't answer the question? Seems simple enough. If you're familiar with the views of these people, enlighten us as to which ones have been enshrined.
The far left has actual influence with their obnoxious and self destructive ideologies that until just recently werent even allowed to be questioned (thanks again to Elon for fixing this). The far right basicly has zero influence on anything and gets shit on routinely. Oddly enough the far left and right use the same means and methods, but only the left is actively encouraged and promoted. Both are bad, sure. But the far left is 1000x worse.
Thanks for checking in with the update from the land of make believe
It is telling than an organization that is trying to pull votes away from Democratic candidates makes an appeal to being reasonable with a focus on actually accomplishing things. They seem to know that this is not something that will appeal to most GOP voters.
Lol

So basically another GQP grift. BAU
If you can’t see the anti-Semitic remakes by Ohman, Tlaib, and the youth on college campuses that says more about you than it says about them.
No Labels' goal is to syphon off enough Democratic votes on bullshit candidates so Trump can get get elected. Don't get Jill Steined again.
First, I'd argue your definition of what a "moderate" is, but we do hate candidates whose only purpose is to not win, but make sure the Democratic candidate doesn't win either. That's not a moderate candidate, that's a far, far right wing ally who is an extension of the far right fascist candidate's campaign strategy. None of these so-called "3rd Party" candidates actually have a goal of winning. They want to grift money off the Republican dark money apparatus and if they help get the fascist elected, so be it. At least they got theirs.
That has absolutely not one thing to do with the question you keep ducking...

"The Squad" can't answer that for you. You made the claim - what were you talking about? Refusing to answer says everything that needs to be known about you.
And you have the R party line down pretty well. Congratulations.
Still, you can call it "the party line" to try and make it seem like it some unoriginal groupthink all you want, it also is the truth which is why Republicans try to downplay it and deflect from it. There's a reason none of these people will tell you where their financing is coming from. Or they are being funded by right wing billionaires.
I tried linking it but it wasn't working right. Anyway, go look at DEVIL's posts in this thread.
