Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

75% of people clapping liked the show!

He seems like a smart guy, but JFC, what a dick!

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

We can’t confuse what’s necessary to win elections with the policies that we want to implement when we do.

These days, even the boring Republicans are nuts.

Every one of the “Roberts Six” lied to get on the court.

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

Celebrate the fucking wins.

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

Republicans got rid of McCarthy. Democrats chose not to save him.

Hey Washington Post, “Democracy Dies in Darkness” was supposed to be a warning, not a mission statement.

All hail the time of the bunny!

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

This blog will pay for itself.

Trumpflation is an intolerable hardship for every American, and it’s Trump’s fault.

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

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

Nothing says ‘pro-life’ like letting children go hungry.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

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

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

Good Grief!

If I ever up and accidentally screw a couple million people out of a couple of billion dollars and perhaps cause a crisis in the market and perhaps send nervous jitters through an already skittish economy, I hope the Justice department is this easy on me:

Merrill Lynch & Company, in an agreement with prosecutors that let it avoid criminal charges over its role in the Enron debacle, promised today not to engage in business deals

    As long as you don’t do it again

    This is just outrageous. The Justice department – who announced that their policy is to go for the most serious offense provable for “regular” criminals so they spend the most time in jail, and who are seeking the death penalty…
