Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

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

You can’t love your country only when you win.

Second rate reporter says what?

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

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

This country desperately needs a functioning Fourth Estate.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

He really is that stupid.

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

At some point, the ability to learn is a factor of character, not IQ.

Can we lighten up on the doomsday scenarios?

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

I conferred with the team and they all agree – still not tired of winning!

An almost top 10,000 blog!

There are more Russians standing up to Putin than Republicans.

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

with the Kraken taking a plea, the Cheese stands alone.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

    Time to pick a fight with TZ:

    SAN DIEGO – American Airlines flight 590 from San Diego finally made it to Chicago late yesterday, after being delayed in an incident involving passengers heard speaking Arabic.

    It turns out six Iraqi men on board work for a defense contractor and were reportedly taking the overnight flight home after a job at Camp Pendleton training Marines headed for Iraq.

    Their boss says some of the other passengers complained after hearing them speak Arabic. Everybody was ordered off the plane. According to the airline, law officers questioned the men and then quickly let them go. But by that time it was too late for the plane to take off until Wednesday morning.

    Once again, 1 or 2 Bed-Wetters can cause 1) A flight to be grounded, 2) people inconvienced to get a pricey hotel room, and 3) Missed meetings, rides, luggage, etc.

    Why? Cuz a bunch of Brown People spoke something other than English. It’s now a suspicious activity to speak Arabic in an airport. Unreal. There just aren’t enough diapers in this world for all these idiots.

    I’m sure TZ will disagree with me.

    And since this is an open thread:

    I hereby move that we start torching media outlets if they don’t shut the fuck up about Princess Diana for a little while. It seems like every single damn day there is something about her in the news. Even if the story starts out about one of her kids it becomes: “Prince William, the son of Princess Diana, who died blah, blah, blah…”
