Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

You are either for trump or for democracy. Pick one.

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires Republicans to act in good faith.

You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.

Trump’s cabinet: like a magic 8 ball that only gives wrong answers.

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

“When somebody takes the time to draw up a playbook, they’re gonna use it.”

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

Fight them, without becoming them!

Our messy unity will be our strength.

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

My right to basic bodily autonomy is not on the table. that’s the new deal.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

Humiliatingly small and eclipsed by the derision of millions.

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

So fucking stupid, and still doing a tremendous amount of damage.

Today’s gop: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

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

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

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

You Have to BE Kidding Me

I read this editorial in the NY Times, and I was shocked. You mean to tell me, that in 2003, we don’t videotape confessions? It should be mandatory. If anyone can come up with a reason why it shouldn’t be, I am all ears.
