There are a massive amount of lies being peddled about Charlie Kirk, so I compiled a list of worthwhile articles to check out instead. His murder was alarming, but not for the reasons most are talking about mst3katie.substack.com/p/star-wreck...

YUP. But treason is just the tip of the iceberg for the crimes of Rudy “America’s Mayor” Giuliani
Rudy’s extensive ties to Russian and former Soviet Bloc criminals had been publicly documented for decades before his Ukraine-related corruption became headline news in 2021: - In the 1990s, one of Rudy’s biggest campaign donors was Semyon Kislin, a wealthy Ukrainian businessman who was tracked by the FBI due to his Russian mob connections. While Kislin donated to other American politicians, Rudy was the only one to reward the creep by appointing him to the New York City Mayor's Council of Economic Advisors - In 2004, Rudy met with Yury Luzhkov, Moscow’s then-Mayor known for massive corruption involving the Kremlin and Russian organized crime - Rudy had such extensive business ties to the Kazakhs who were found guilty of running a massive criminal organization that a human rights group had reason to believe that his law firm was involved in their multi-billion dollar money-laundering scheme

Don’t listen to this “no longer” tripe - Schumer’s ties to Trump go back decades so he was never going to be meaningful opposition
From a 2017 Time Magazine interview with Chuck Schumer: “After World War II, a lot of these immigrant families started building houses. And [my maternal grandfather] built little rowhouses, and Fred Trump was building little rowhouses, too, and they knew each other. I think they had the same lawyer. And they would share supplies occasionally, and things like that.…. [Fred Trump] had a big black Cadillac. Now they were already wealthy. They lived in Queens, in Jamaica Estates. But they had a lot of apartment buildings in Brooklyn.” While you shouldn’t be judged by the caliber of the people you grew up around, Schumer and Trump rarely left each other’s orbits. As young men, they both attended the 52nd birthday party of ruthless “Red Scare” prosecutor and mob lawyer Roy Cohn. In 2006, Schumer appeared on Trump’s reality TV show The Apprentice, seemingly happy to praise the future President despite being a well known criminal and con man at that point. Screenshot of Chuck Schumer on The Apprentice with the caption “Senator Schumer and Mr.Trump are good friends” Text: Schumer could have been willing to ignore Trump’s many failings because 2/3 of his political donations were going to Democrats at that point. Trump even held a gaudy fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago for Democrats in 2008 (which Schumer attended). Between 1996 and 2016, the Trump family donated nearly $20,000 directly to Chuck Schumer’s political campaigns, meaning Schumer had received more donations from Trump than any other sitting member of Congress in 2016.

Schumer isn’t a weakling, he just has no reason to go against Trump when his family donated more to him than any other sitting member of Congress back-in-the-day www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump...

I hope this helps more people understand that Trump and crew *want* poor Americans to starve. He’s a de facto mob boss, so everything is about hierarchy, self-enrichment, and domination through intimidation and extortion

TRANS RIGHTS ARE A WINNING POLITICAL ISSUE

Every single centrist claiming we must all compromise our bodily autonomy for their personal comfort is a traitor to American democracy & rational human decency.

They have no place in a modern Democratic Party, toss them out. Total liberation for all.

Excellent piece
Screencap from The Nation: The successor presidencies of Democrats Barack Obama and Joe Biden decried the power grabs Cheney pursued but mostly pocketed his gains for their own purposes. (In his case for unrestricted bombing in the Caribbean and Pacific, Gaiser cited Obama’s own marginalization of Congress to bomb Libya in 2011.) Trump now walks a red carpet of lawlessness, plutocracy and bloodshed woven by Cheney. An uncharismatic Nixon functionary—someone who might never have risen to power had Texas Senator John Tower not drunk himself out of a Pentagon appointment that instead went to Cheney—decisively shaped the destruction of constitutional governance in twenty-first-century America.

Did you know that Liz Cheney was brought into this world so Dick Cheney could be a draft dodger?

"On Oct. 6, 1965, the Selective Service lifted its ban against drafting married men who had no children. Nine months and two days later, Mr. Cheney's first daughter, Elizabeth, was born."

www.nytimes.com/2004/05/01/u...
On Aug. 7, 1964, Congress approved the Gulf of Tonkin resolution, which allowed President Lyndon B. Johnson to use unlimited military force in Vietnam. The war escalated rapidly from there. Just 22 days later, Mr. Cheney married his high school sweetheart, Lynne. He sought his third student deferment on Oct. 14, 1964. In May 1965, Mr. Cheney graduated from college and his draft status changed to 1-A. But he was married, which offered him some protection. In July, President Johnson announced that he was doubling the number of men drafted. The number of inductions soared, to 382,010 in 1966 from 230,991 in 1965 and 112,386 in 1964. Mr. Cheney obtained his fourth deferment when he started graduate school at the University of Wyoming on Nov. 1, 1965. On Oct. 6, 1965, the Selective Service lifted its ban against drafting married men who had no children. Nine months and two days later, Mr. Cheney's first daughter, Elizabeth, was born. On Jan. 19, 1966, when his wife was about 10 weeks pregnant, Mr. Cheney applied for 3-A status, the ''hardship'' exemption, which excluded men with children or dependent parents. It was granted. In January 1967, Mr. Cheney turned 26 and was no longer eligible for the draft.

Re-upping this article for election day. Don’t vote for Cuomo, NYC! You can do better than a corrupt nepo baby who got MeTooed!

open.substack.com/pub/mst3kati...
Andrew Cuomo — who has been praised as a “pragmatist” and “a strong and proven leader” and “the best choice for mayor” by Corporate Democrats — is a corrupt nepo baby with a long record of shady dealings and criminal ties. Andrew’s first law firm helped Trump cozy up to his then-governor father and his administration, including the officials who looked the other way when Trump shortchanged the City by $2.8 million worth of hotel property taxes in 1987. Later, as HUD Secretary, Andrew oversaw the unregulated expansion of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac after legalizing kickbacks to mortgage brokers who tricked people into taking on the most predatory home loans available. Articles about the mayoral race — which used to be fairly critical of Ripped Condom Andrew Cuomo — have become less and less honest about Mamdani’s challengers. Instead of referring to Andrew as New York’s disgraced former governor, they’ve started glossing over and completely ignoring his extensive history of scandal and corruption. This is especially true when it comes to Andrew’s connections to the global far-Right, like how he joined the “legal dream team” defending Dead Tooth Benjamin Netanyahu against charges of war crimes in Palestine.

I feel like I’m in the minority here but I am not a fan of Prop 50. Yes I’ll be voting for it cuz the alternative is worse, but I hate responding to the disenfranchisement of Texans with disenfranchisement of Californians to empower a party that is more likely to be Trump’s enabler than opposition

I spotted this on Mastodon and I find it horrible, not least for the speed with which this has happened.
A post on Mastodon by small cypress (@small_cypress@indieweb.social): As an art teacher I was worried AI would come up as an issue of "why should I learn how to draw when I can use AI instead." But the real issue is that my middle schoolers CONSTANTLY believe all art I show them is AI. Digital art. Photography. Oil paintings from the Western canon. "A human couldn't do that" Being convinced that humans can't make great art is kind of terrifying

Maybe Trump thinks Andrew Cuomo will act like his dad, whose ‘80s admin looked the other way when Trump shortchanged NYC by $2.8 million in taxes www.villagevoice.com/donald-trump...
The Grand Hyatt, the midtown hotel that UDC had helped Donald build in the ’70s, also got its own special state service in the Cuomo years. The benefactor again was Vincent Tese, whose agency was still the Hyatt’s landowner and was required to collect the hotel’s annual property tax payments and pass them on to the city. When Trump suddenly slashed his payment by 80 percent in 1987, UDC just accepted it without raising any questions, though it had a right to audit the Hyatt’s books under the terms of the lease. Several months later, the city asked UDC to allow its auditor general, Karen Burstein, to audit the hotel’s paltry $667,000 payment, and UDC went along. The city audit revealed that Trump had shortchanged the city by $2.8 million.

So many Baby Boomers rejected communal responsibility and care-taking in order to embrace Reagan's evil shit in the '80s that sometimes I wonder if it had anything to do with them being the first generation to be raised with the constant threat of nuclear annihilation
