Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Celebrate the fucking wins.

I desperately hope that, yet again, i am wrong.

You’re just a puppy masquerading as an old coot.

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

The fight for our country is always worth it. ~Kamala Harris

Well, whatever it is, it’s better than being a Republican.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

The world has changed, and neither one recognizes it.

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

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

Sadly, media malpractice has become standard practice.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

Not rolling over. fuck you, make me.

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

The line between political reporting and fan fiction continues to blur.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

Stand up, dammit!

If I am not the most incompetent html coder on the planet I would be shocked. It took me an hour to get that ugly paypal thing up, and it isn’t even where I want it. Grumble…
