Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Republicans cannot even be trusted with their own money.

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

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

“The defense has a certain level of trust in defendant that the government does not.”

They are not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

The lights are all blinking red.

Democracy cannot function without a free press.

“woke” is the new caravan.

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

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

Peak wingnut was a lie.

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

This country desperately needs a functioning fourth estate.

American history and black history cannot be separated.

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

So many bastards, so little time.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

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

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

The line between political reporting and fan fiction continues to blur.

Well What Do You Know

I see that Ken Layne has re-emerged after spending a year going all Buddy Holly on us, and has started blogging again. Before you get confused, Welch is the one with the goofy glasses- Layne looks like a younger Steve Earle. Which reminds me- Welch is blogging up a storm, too.

I suppose I should be all pissy for Layne leaving me in the lurch for a year, especially after his first real return post is this stream of conciousness screed against all bloggers telling us how we have let him and the medium. I am not- welcome back.

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!
