Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Stand up, dammit!

the 10% who apparently lack object permanence

This blog will pay for itself.

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

If you voted for Trump, you don’t get to speak about ethics, morals, or rule of law.

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

Let the trolls come, and then ignore them. that’s the worst thing you can do to a troll.

We know you aren’t a Democrat but since you seem confused let me help you.

I would gladly pay you tuesday for a hamburger today.

When you’re a Republican, they let you do it.

Trump should be leading, not lying.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Today’s gop: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

Speaker Mike Johnson is a vile traitor to the House and the Constitution.

Hell hath no fury like a farmer bankrupted.

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

The current Supreme Court is a dangerous, rogue court.

You know it’s bad when the Project 2025 people have to create training videos on “How To Be Normal”.

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

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

Celebrate the fucking wins.

When we show up, we win.

Screw Sully and his pledge drive! Check out my updated Amazon Wish list. That tv sure looks nice…

I remember my old drill Sergeant telling me to “Wish in one hand and spit* in the other and see which one fills up first.”

    Yeah, we’ll my black hat at Airborne school used to repeat the phrase “This ain’t Burger King, you can’t have it your way,” every time anyone in my stick asked for anything.

    So you get nothing, and you’ll like it!

    Seriously though, I’m too poor to give either you or Sullivan anything. Sorry.

    If the word is spit, then I would wish my mouth weren’t so dry. I have long had a similar response to the other version.

    The future of freedom is a great great book. Zakaria convinced me that we have far too much democracy in this country.
