Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

Dear legacy media: you are not here to influence outcomes and policies you find desirable.

All hail the time of the bunny!

Washington Post Catch and Kill, not noticeably better than the Enquirer’s.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Marge, god is saying you’re stupid.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

There are times when telling just part of the truth is effectively a lie.

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

“Perhaps I should have considered other options.” (head-desk)

Democracy is not a spectator sport.

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

Roe is not about choice. It is about freedom.

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

The Supreme Court cannot be allowed to become the ultimate, unaccountable arbiter of everything.

Trump should be leading, not lying.

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”

Petty moves from a petty man.

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

So many bastards, so little time.

“In the future, this lab will be a museum. do not touch it.”

The only way through is to slog through the muck one step at at time.
