Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Let’s finish the job.

Consistently wrong since 2002

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

Trump’s legal defense is going to be a dumpster fire inside a clown car on a derailing train.

So many bastards, so little time.

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

Everybody saw this coming.

Fani Willis claps back at Trump chihuahua, Jim Jordan.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

“The defense has a certain level of trust in defendant that the government does not.”

Their freedom requires your slavery.

I’m sure you banged some questionable people yourself.

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

Everyone is in a bubble, but some bubbles model reality far better than others!

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

In an Olympian effort to appear supremely stupid, Alec Baldwin proclaimed that the outcome of the 2000 election was just as bad as 9/11.

“I know that’s a harsh thing to say, perhaps, but I believe that what happened in 2000 did as much damage to the pillars of democracy as terrorists did to the pillars of commerce in New York City,” Baldwin said, drawing applause from the breakfast audience of about 200.

Which means that there are approximately 201 idiots in Florida.
