Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

When you’re in more danger from the IDF than from Russian shelling, that’s really bad.

Someone should tell Republicans that violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, or possibly the first.

“I was told there would be no fact checking.”

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

Republicans in disarray!

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

Dumb motherfuckers cannot understand a consequence that most 4 year olds have fully sorted out.

I would try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

“Alexa, change the president.”

The words do not have to be perfect.

This country desperately needs a functioning fourth estate.

We’re watching the self-immolation of the leading world power on a level unprecedented in human history.

Innocent people do not delay justice.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

Beware of advice from anyone for whom Democrats are “they” and not “we.”

Radicalized white males who support Trump are pitching a tent in the abyss.

He seems like a smart guy, but JFC, what a dick!

DeSantis transforming Florida into 1930s Germany with gators and theme parks.

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

Anne Laurie is a fucking hero in so many ways. ~ Betty Cracker

In between snarls and streams

In between snarls and streams of spittle, Justin Raimondo states (shouts?? Oozes?):

Oh yes, we must be sure to keep up our relentless Full-Bore-Fact-Check on the Saudis – but never the Israelis. That is one of the cardinal rules of warblogging: never the Israelis. As His Majesty, King Andrew, recently announced: Israel must be supported “unequivocally” – i.e. no matter what horrors are carried out by Ariel Sharon and his nutball rightwing followers.

I guess I am guilty of fact checking only the Arabs- maybe it is the track record of misogyny, outdated theocratic and autocratic rule, perpetual human rights abuses, vile anti-semitism, the cozy support of former and current Marxist regimes, and the justification of terrorism and outright murder of innocent Jews that caught my attention.

At any rate, why fact check the Israelis? After all, the Jews control the media. The Holocaust never happened, etc.

The whole article just annoyed me. Attacking Glenn Reynolds, Ken Layne, Sgt.Stryker, and Andrew Sullivan, tarring them as racist and vile arab haters, without paying the slightest attention to what they actually say, just irks me. Back in your hole, Justin. And I agree with Matt Welch. Justin is creepy looking.
