Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

We’ll be taking my thoughts and prayers to the ballot box.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

Conservatism: there are some people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

People are complicated. Love is not.

I’m pretty sure there’s only one Jack Smith.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

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

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

Spilling the end game before they can coat it in frankl luntz-approved dogwhistles.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

This really is a full service blog.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

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

Don’t expect peaches from an apple tree.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

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

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

I hope he enjoys his new living quarters:

The former vice president of Iraq, No. 20 on the most-wanted list put together by the United States and one of the most zealous defenders of Saddam Hussein, was captured today, the Pentagon said.

A spokeswoman, Chief Diane Perry, could not confirm reports that the capture of the official, Taha Yassin Ramadan, had been carried out by Kurdish forces in the northern city of Mosul.
