The parliamentarians were accused of using state funds of 80,000 euros to procure office supplies from a friendly company without carrying out the required public tender.

Party representatives rejected the allegations and, after inspecting the files at the public prosecutor's office, stated that none of the accused were being investigated.

In 2022, the Thuringian Die Linke accused the party of having collaborated with radical representatives of the Querdenken movement and right-wing extremist individuals.

In 2021, texts were found on the party's website in which extremism researchers saw "essential features of conspiracy narratives " aimed at discrediting democratic structures.

In addition, the "lateral thinker lawyer" Ralf Ludwig spoke at a Citizens for Thuringia rally.
