Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

This chaos was totally avoidable.

Celebrate the fucking wins.

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

They want us to be overwhelmed and exhausted. Focus. Resist. Oppose.

“But what about the lurkers?”

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

The republican speaker is a slippery little devil.

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

The way to stop violence is to stop manufacturing the hatred that fuels it.

The current Supreme Court is a dangerous, rogue court.

No Kings: Americans standing in the way of bad history saying “Oh, Fuck No!”

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

Find someone who loves you the way trump and maga love traitors.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

People are complicated. Love is not.

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

This blog will pay for itself.

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

You cannot shame the shameless.

We will not go back.

Their shamelessness is their super power.

One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.

    As a nation based upon immigrants, I must say, they keep the founding spirit alive far better than many born here.
