Lieberman served as No Labels' chief public defender when the critics got the loudest. The centrist group he helped create ignited a political firestorm over the last year by working to recruit a third-party presidential campaign that some feared might tilt the 2024 election in Donald Trump?s favor. Now, Lieberman is gone. His death marks an irreplaceable loss for No Labels. (AP Photo/Jessica Hill, File)
