Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

The GOP couldn’t organize an orgy in a whorehouse with a fist full of 50s.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

It’s all just conspiracy shit beamed down from the mothership.

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

“And when the Committee says to “report your income,” that could mean anything!

It’s time for the GOP to dust off that post-2012 autopsy, completely ignore it, and light the party on fire again.

If you are in line to indict donald trump, stay in line.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you don’t.

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

We still have time to mess this up!

As long as McCarthy is Speaker, the House will never be in order.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

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

Take your GOP plan out of the witness protection program.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

T R E 4 5 O N

It’s a doggy dog world.

An unpunished coup is a training exercise.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

A solid first round victory for the Eers, 75-65.

Duke on Saturday.

BTW- I have not written about them much this year, because I just do not find the playstyle as compelling as I did Beilein’s teams.

    I love sports, although admittedly not so much basketball…but is it just me or do others find College sports completely uninteresting.

    Glad your team won though John.

    Eh, I think yinz’ll be all right. You know who looked real good today? Duke.

    If only one of those wildly lanky lookin’ guys from Belmont had thought to just stand in the lane and at least consider taking a charge, West Virginia might be one of the most rooted-against teams in the country this weekend. As it stands, they’ll be one of the most rooted for – I sure would be. Good luck – –

    Ninerdave, I’m the opposite. Really can’t/don’t get into pro. Much prefer college sports. More authentic rivalries, if that makes any sense.

    Keep the faith Cole and Thuggy will entertain. Recruiting the most unsavory characters he can find, primarily transfers from dubious community colleges, is his speciality. But early flameouts, DUI’s, breaking contracts, are all part of the Circus. Enjoy!

    The boys from Belmont wore down Douche University for you, John. Finish them!

    I’m pleased to see I’m not the only Duke-hater here. I was listening to the Duke/Belmont game on my way home from work and rushed to the TV with Belmont up 1 in the closing minute. I had already conjured up an image in my mind of Belmont’s athletic studs taking it to Duke’s brainiacs, and was shocked to see how puny the Belmont players looked. Cudos to them for taking a much stronger foe to the wire.

    Not to get too political or anything, but there is lesson here for those who think a super-powered military will win every contest.

    There is still a lot of love for Huggins in Southwestern Ohio. He creates strivers who work hard in a Pistons or Steelers type way. But I still loved it when Bob Knight recently called him “400 pounds of butter”. I think it was the horrendous suit he wore in the game against Cincinnati.
    I think you’ll grow to appreciate his team’s style.

    John said (paraphrasing):
    “Beilein’s teams had a compelling playing style when he was at WVU.” Is that the best we have to look forward to in the next few years at Michigan? He must have done with mirrors down there at WVa because this season he put out an over-coached, steaming pile of dung on the floor this season for the Maize and Blue.

    Yeah actually it does, and probably part of my problem is that I never went to a college with a team. Hell even my high school teams were horrible.

    I have WVU vs Duke in the second rd. I took Duke, but I hope they loose. After looking at my sheet again, I want Duke to win, I have them in the next rd too. What a bad pick. I have w. kentucky today, what a lucky pick. Same as my kansas st. pick.
