Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

They spent the last eight months firing professionals and replacing them with ideologues.

So fucking stupid, and still doing a tremendous amount of damage.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

Is trump is trying to break black America over his knee? signs point to ‘yes’.

The desire to stay informed is directly at odds with the need to not be constantly enraged.

Everything is totally normal and fine!!!

“When somebody takes the time to draw up a playbook, they’re gonna use it.”

Not rolling over. fuck you, make me.

If a good thing happens for a bad reason, it’s still a good thing.

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

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

Cancel the cowardly Times and Post and set up an equivalent monthly donation to ProPublica.

I have other things to bitch about but those will have to wait.

Innocent people do not delay justice.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the gop

The world has changed, and neither one recognizes it.

After dobbs, women are no longer free.

Our messy unity will be our strength.

Celebrate the fucking wins.

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

The media handbook says “controversial” is the most negative description that can be used for a Republican.

After examining the donations that have been ‘flowing’ in, I have determined I have no career in blogging. Rats.

*** Update ***

The Balloon Juice Laptop fiasco fund is now up to 5 donations for a total of $57.25 and one (1) offer to pay me not to blog ever again. Let’s keep those donations rolling!
