Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

We’re watching the self-immolation of the leading world power on a level unprecedented in human history.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

Sometimes the world just tells you your cat is here.

Every reporter and pundit should have to declare if they ever vacationed with a billionaire.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

I did not have this on my fuck 2025 bingo card.

We will not go quietly into the night; we will not vanish without a fight.

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires.

“I was told there would be no fact checking.”

Giving in to doom is how authoritarians win.

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty. ~Thomas Jefferson

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

The most dangerous place for a black man in America is in a white man’s imagination.

Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls 2 years from now.

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

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

I swear, each month of 2025 will have its own history degree.

Radicalized white males who support Trump are pitching a tent in the abyss.

America is going up in flames. The NYTimes fawns over MAGA celebrities. No longer a real newspaper.

If you can’t control your emotions, someone else will.

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

Their freedom requires your slavery.

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

The 53rd Carnival of the Vanities is up, and there were several posts I found particularly worth reading. I love this post from the People’s Republic of Seabrook, and this discussion of Christian Amanpour was spectacular.

We did it!

We raised the 25,000 for The Civics Center, and with the external matches, that gives them $60,000 for this Spring effort!

You guys rock!
