Did the American Libertarian Party even put a candidate forward this year, or are they basically all set with the front runners?

Yeah, and he's unironically running to the left of Kamala on almost everything.
Yes, his name is Chase Liberty or something
- Chase Oliver for President
  The big background image on the homepage looks like an AI prompt for: libertarian presidential candidate and his VP
  
  What is wrong with his suit? A raised arm should not look like that in a suit.
He wants to stop aid to Israel and Ukraine (calling the genocide in Gaza a genocide), stop tariffs on China, legalize abortion nationally, abolish the TSA, repeal the PATRIOT ACT, decriminalize all drugs, enact ranked choice voting, abolish the death penalty, end qualified immunity and mandatory minimum sentencing, and cut military spending by half.
Juuuust don't ask about his positions on social security, Medicare, education, or any other government spending that actually helps people.
For a libertarian, he's relatively progressive, but he's still a libertarian
- Libertarians can be very strange sometimes. They'll see all the problems with capital interfering with government and destroying society and their conclusion will be that it is government's fault, forcing those poor innocent corporations to be corrupt.
  
  They're a dumb section of people who, in the past, could just vanguarded into anti-capitalism through anti-government sentiment but now they have an """ideology""" that makes them harder to lead our way and thus just reinforces capitalism.
- From what I can tell, I think part of why he's controversial in the party is that he's into adult men.
- I think he is also pro-lgbtq+ and wants to lift the embargo on Cuba
