Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Jack Smith: “Why did you start campaigning in the middle of my investigation?!”

Democracy cannot function without a free press.

In after Baud. Damn.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

Republicans cannot even be trusted with their own money.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

Relentless negativity is not a sign that you are more realistic.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

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

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

“In the future, this lab will be a museum. do not touch it.”

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

SCOTUS: It’s not “bribery” unless it comes from the Bribery region of France. Otherwise, it’s merely “sparkling malfeasance”.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

We will not go back.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

Speaker Mike Johnson is a vile traitor to the House and the Constitution.

Just because you believe it, that does not make it true.

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