Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Prediction: the gop will rethink its strategy of boycotting future committees.

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

The rest of the comments were smacking Boebert like she was a piñata.

The press swings at every pitch, we don’t have to.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

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

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

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

It is possible to do the right thing without the promise of a cookie.

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

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

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

The unpunished coup was a training exercise.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

The republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

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

This really is a full service blog.

The revolution will be supervised.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

If you don’t believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love isn’t freedom, it is privilege.

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

They Pay Her?

Q: What do Donald Rumsfeld, military affairs, foreign diplomacy, men, and football have in common?

A: Maureen Dowd doesn’t understand any of them.

At least she adds to the Axis of Weasel meme, although inaccurately attributing it to the NY Post.

*** Update ***

Robert Musil comments.
