Mark Levin on Lieberman: 'He was the last moderate…'

The United States has lost one of its most dedicated public servants, Joe Lieberman, at the age of 82. Joe Lieberman, a figure celebrated for his bipartisan efforts and historical vice-presidential candidacy, passed away due to complications following a fall.

Conservative commentator Mark Levin remarked on X that Lieberman was the "last moderate" upon his death on Wednesday.

Throughout his career, Lieberman collaborated with senators such as John McCain and Lindsey Graham on various international issues, underscoring his belief in the importance of bipartisan governance. McCain, who had considered Lieberman as a vice-presidential running mate in 2008, later expressed that such a ticket would have symbolized a genuine effort to unite the country.

Lieberman's involvement in significant policy decisions, from the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security to advocating for the end of restrictions on gays in the U.S. military, demonstrates a commitment to forward-thinking and inclusive policies. His work with No Labels in his later years continued to emphasize his belief in the need for a political middle ground in an increasingly polarized environment.
