Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

Let me file that under fuck it.

When we show up, we win.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

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

Finding joy where we can, and muddling through where we can’t.

Not rolling over. fuck you, make me.

So many bastards, so little time.

The Giant Orange Man Baby is having a bad day.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

Human rights are not a matter of opinion!

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

I did not have this on my fuck 2025 bingo card.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

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

Hey Washington Post, “Democracy Dies in Darkness” was supposed to be a warning, not a mission statement.

We still have time to mess this up!

The real work of an opposition party is to oppose.

We will not go back.

“Loving your country does not mean lying about its history.”

Oppose, oppose, oppose. do not congratulate. this is not business as usual.

Sadly, media malpractice has become standard practice.

I have other things to bitch about but those will have to wait.

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

From the Sgt. Schultz files:

NATIONAL GUARD AND RESERVE MOBILIZED AS OF JUNE 26
This week the Army announces an increase of reservists on active duty in support of the partial mobilization, while the Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force each announce decreases of reservists. The net collective result is 177 more reservists than last week.

At any given time, Services may mobilize some units and individuals while demobilizing others, making it possible for these figures to either increase or decrease. Total number currently on active duty in support of the partial mobilization for the Army National Guard and Army Reserve is 34,478; Naval Reserve, 8,760; Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve, 36,773; Marine Corps Reserve, 4,096; and the Coast Guard Reserve 1,485. This brings the total Reserve and National Guard on active duty to 85,592 including both units and individual augmentees.

This mobilization appears routine and mundane enough to not be a sign that Iraq will be hit soon. The mobilization to look for will be a large increase in sea and airlift capacity and reserve support component activation.
