Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.

A fool as well as an oath-breaker.

Jack Smith: “Why did you start campaigning in the middle of my investigation?!”

Text STOP to opt out of updates on war plans.

The republican caucus is covering themselves with something, and it is not glory.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

“woke” is the new caravan.

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

Peak wingnut was a lie.

When I was faster i was always behind.

Keep the Immigrants and deport the fascists!

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

Come on, man.

If America since Jan 2025 hasn’t broken your heart, you haven’t loved her enough.

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

The republican speaker is a slippery little devil.

We will not go back.

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

Disagreements are healthy; personal attacks are not.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

I just went and bought

I just went and bought a replacement shower curtain liner (the bottom of the old one got the funk, so it was time to replace it. While I was at the store, I realized my only option for shower curtains and liners were for twelve holed ones. Why is this? Who decided that 12 was the right number of holes? Why is there no liberal outrage over lack of choice? Why not ten? I am sure Atrios will tell me it is a racist plot.

At any rate, I am curious as to why the standard is twelve. Weird.
