Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

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

Petty moves from a petty man.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

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

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

The snowflake in chief appeared visibly frustrated when questioned by a reporter about egg prices.

Anne Laurie is a fucking hero in so many ways. ~ Betty Cracker

It is possible to do the right thing without the promise of a cookie.

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

How any woman could possibly vote for this smug smarmy piece of misogynistic crap is beyond understanding.

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

Just because you believe it, that does not make it true.

Today in our ongoing national embarrassment…

Oppose, oppose, oppose. do not congratulate. this is not business as usual.

People are complicated. Love is not.

We will not go back.

Republicans: “Abortion is murder but you can take a bus to get one.” Easy peasy.

Dear media: perhaps we ought to let Donald Trump speak for himself!

President Musk and Trump are both poorly raised, coddled 8 year old boys.

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

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

The National Guard is not Batman.

“woke” is the new caravan.

Rarely am I deeply upset by the death of a journalist, but I loved Jerry Nachman, who just passed away.

RIP, Mr. Nachman. You were a class act.

    He ruined MSNBC. I respect him as a man but I have no use for him as a newsperson. He was biased and biased and news is wrong.
