Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Nothing worth doing is easy.

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

Roe isn’t about choice, it’s about freedom.

The words do not have to be perfect.

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

A lot of Dems talk about what the media tells them to talk about. Not helpful.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

Never forget that he train is barreling down on Trump, even as he dances on the tracks.

Well, whatever it is, it’s better than being a Republican.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Every one of the “Roberts Six” lied to get on the court.

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

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

The arc of the moral universe doesn’t bend itself. it’s up to us.

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

Somebody needs to explain to DeSantis that nobody needs to do anything to make him look bad.

The new republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires.

No one could have predicted…

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

This piece in the Village Voice is a decent primer on some of the members of the extreme religious right.

More here about the Ten Commandments decision in TNR, and here is a decent piece in the New Yorker about God University.

    There’s also this article about the uber-Christian colleges that serve as a link between predominantly homeschooled Christian kids and the world at large and also serve as a pipeline for those same kids to get into the Republican grassroots.

    The article is informative (and no, it isn’t at all mocking) and a little bit spooky. It does mention one professor who I hope has a lot of traction with the students, but who I fear doesn’t make much of an impression:

    [Professor Stacey]is an evangelical Christian, but he worries that his students sometimes revert to jargon they picked up from their parents,
