Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

President Musk and Trump are both poorly raised, coddled 8 year old boys.

The press swings at every pitch, we don’t have to.

They are not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

Cancel the cowardly Times and Post and set up an equivalent monthly donation to ProPublica.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

Every one of the “Roberts Six” lied to get on the court.

Come on, man.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

How any woman could possibly vote for this smug smarmy piece of misogynistic crap is beyond understanding.

Giving in to doom is how we fail to fight for ourselves & one another.

There are some who say that there are too many strawmen arguments on this blog.

In my day, never was longer.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

They punch you in the face and then start crying because their fist hurts.

I like political parties that aren’t owned by foreign adversaries.

Republicans do not trust women.

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

With all due respect and assumptions of good faith, please fuck off into the sun.

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

People are complicated. Love is not.
