Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

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

Live so that if you miss a day of work people aren’t hoping you’re dead.

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

The arc of the moral universe does not bend itself. it is up to us to bend it.

Keep the Immigrants and deport the fascists!

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. keep building.

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

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

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

If rights aren’t universal, they are privilege, not rights.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

The way to stop violence is to stop manufacturing the hatred that fuels it.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

It is not hopeless, and we are not helpless.

Everybody saw this coming.

Dear elected officials: Trump is temporary, dishonor is forever.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

One lie, alone, tears the fabric of reality.

People really shouldn’t expect the government to help after they watched the GOP drown it in a bathtub.

They want us to be overwhelmed and exhausted. Focus. Resist. Oppose.

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

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

Also via TalkLeft, this editorial talking about the prejudicial value of mugshots:

Mug shots are more than just embarrassing photos. They are potentially prejudicial pieces of evidence.

When I was a prosecutor, I often tried to figure out a way
