Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

As long as McCarthy is Speaker, the House will never be in order.

Trump’s legal defense is going to be a dumpster fire inside a clown car on a derailing train.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Ah, the different things are different argument.

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

Take your GOP plan out of the witness protection program.

“woke” is the new caravan.

No Justins, No Peace

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

The GOP is a fucking disgrace.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

Happy indictment week to all who celebrate!

A consequence of cucumbers

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

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

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Take That, Tom

By now, almost everyone has heard Daschle’s odious remarks regarding Bush and diplomacy, but just in case you have not, here they are again one more time:

“I’m saddened,” Daschle, D-South Dakota, said in a speech to the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees. “Saddened that this president failed so miserably at diplomacy that we’re now forced to war. Saddened that we have to give up one life because this president couldn’t create the kind of diplomatic effort that was so critical for our country.”

Predictably, everyone in the Republican party exploded with anger, as they should have- Daschle is clearly being a partisan fool. However, the best response to Daschle so far has been from Rick Santorum:

“I think Senator Daschle clearly articulated the French position, and I just don’t think that is how most Americans see it.”
