Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

If you are in line to indict donald trump, stay in line.

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

Glad to see john eastman going through some things.

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

T R E 4 5 O N

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

The Supreme Court cannot be allowed to become the ultimate, unaccountable arbiter of everything.

“That’s what the insurrection act is for!”

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

Ah, the different things are different argument.

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

DeSantis transforms Florida into 1930s Germany with gators and theme parks.

I didn’t have alien invasion on my 2023 BINGO card.

Consistently wrong since 2002

I wonder if trump will be tried as an adult.

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

Cole is on a roll !

It’s the corruption, stupid.

Seatbelts, Please

Comparisons like this make me almost blow a gasket:

As demonstrators cheer the restoration of democracy to their beleaguered country, Ohio officials continue to deny it.

In the face of obvious fraud, Ukraine’s Supreme Court has thrown out an apparent coup for the incumbent and ordered a new election. That’s what needs to happen here.

But despite growing national pressure and a major demonstration scheduled for tomorrow, Ohio’s Republican Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell continues to stonewall a true recount in the state that allegedly gave George W. Bush another term.

Reverend Jesse Jackson and Congressman John Conyers will be among the speakers at a statehouse rally tomorrow demanding explanations for apparent irregularities in the November 2 Ohio vote…

The litany of apparent theft, fraud and manipulation surrounding the Ohio vote is growing with each passing day.

Which leads to the ultimate question: if Ukraine can get a new election, why can’t we?

Because massivewidespread vote fixing, intimidation, and ballot stuffing is the same as a few long lines and inaccurate initial reports.

Really- they are the same.

It is too bad we can not put the loony left progressives and the Falwell wing of the Republican party on a boat, send it out to sea, and then sink it.

    The best thing about characterizing all of these suits as pointless is that it allows you (and Slartibartfast) to seamlessly segue into “The Democrats will recount the votes until they win” when our side starts winning. It’s Orwellian, but it’s good Orwell. Two thumbs up.

    It seems that sinking the boat at sea is a waste of a perfectly good boat… is there a way to just dump the occupants?
