Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you do not.

Lick the third rail, it tastes like chocolate!

SCOTUS: It’s not “bribery” unless it comes from the Bribery region of France. Otherwise, it’s merely “sparkling malfeasance”.

So many bastards, so little time.

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

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

Their freedom requires your slavery.

You passed on an opportunity to be offended? What are you even doing here?

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

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

75% of people clapping liked the show!

You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.

It’s a good piece. click on over. but then come back!!

Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.

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

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

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

It is not hopeless, and we are not helpless.

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

The unpunished coup was a training exercise.

You are either for trump or for democracy. Pick one.

Petty moves from a petty man.

If you cannot answer whether trump lost the 2020 election, you are unfit for office.

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

More Good Economic News

More bad news for the Democrat candidates:

The economy grew at a blistering 7.2 percent annual rate in the third quarter in the strongest pace in nearly two decades. Consumers spent with abandon and businesses ramped up investment, compelling new evidence of an economic resurgence.

The increase in gross domestic product, the broadest measure of the economy’s performance, in the July-September quarter was more than double the 3.3 percent rate registered in the second quarter, the Commerce Department reported Thursday.

The 7.2 percent pace marked the best showing since the first quarter of 1984. It exceeded analysts’ forecasts for a 6 percent growth rate for third-quarter GDP, which measures the value of all goods and services produced within the United States.

“This is a gangbuster number. Everything came together for the economy in the third quarter,” said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Economy.com. “The key challenge now is jobs,” he said.

Drudge is calling it the ‘Bush Boom.’
