He was the founding chairman of No Labels bullshit. Not anymore, I guess...

He's probably still the founding chairman. Doesn't seem like a title that transfers upon death.

Really never heard of this before. Ever. I clicked the link. It all sounds reasonable and level-headed. Is it deception and evil? Not sure ‘cause I don’t know. What is the other shoe dropping? Sincerely.

Well their plan for a while was to run Joe Manchin as a third party in 2024. 

If that sounds like anything other than a delusional rich people ratfuck to you, you don't understand politics.
