Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

This really is a full service blog.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the GOP

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

Let’s finish the job.

People are complicated. Love is not.

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

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

When do the post office & the dmv weigh in on the wuhan virus?

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

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

Happy indictment week to all who celebrate!

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Not all heroes wear capes.

I’d try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

T R E 4 5 O N

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

Consistently wrong since 2002

Since when did ‘vigorous’ become a euphemism for obnoxious?

I agree with everyone, though. Tacitus is one of the best.

    Well, thanks. I certainly didn’t mean it as a synonym for “obnoxious,” I assure you.
