Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

Their boy Ron is an empty plastic cup that will never know pudding.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

We will not go quietly into the night; we will not vanish without a fight.

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

I really should read my own blog.

Republicans cannot even be trusted with their own money.

The current Supreme Court is a dangerous, rogue court.

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

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

The words do not have to be perfect.

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

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

The rest of the comments were smacking Boebert like she was a piñata.

It’s possible to be a liberal firebrand without crapping on the party.

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

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

    Don’t care either, but…the expression on Nancy Grace’s face on Court TV this evening: priceless. She looks like someone just ran over her dog. First Jennifer Wilbanks had the nerve not to be the victim of some horrific crime and now this.

    My mother and I were discussing this; she is old enough to recall the Lindbergh kindapping circus and said this was far worse and more repulsive.

    I have NO idea if the man is actually guilty. None of us were in that courtroom, and only got what we were allowed to see on what passes for news coverage these days.

    But for those who believe he is guilty, take heart: I am sure the civil suit will be filed by Friday.
