Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

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

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

American History and Black History Cannot Be Separated

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

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

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

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

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

Hot air and ill-informed banter

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

Ah, the different things are different argument.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

I’m sure you banged some questionable people yourself.

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

    DAYUM.

    Did I need to see that.

    Especially his response to Limbaugh’s typically even handed, rational take on Michelle Obama’s trip to Spain.

    Well sung. I’ll definitely look for the prior TWIB episodes. Right after I watch some Dave Chappelle.

    A different way to scare, or at least, overstimulate the white racist population of metro Atlanta conservatives:

    30,000 line up for housing vouchers, some get rowdy
    __
    Thirty thousand people showed up to receive Section 8 housing applications in East Point [Atlanta] Wednesday, suffering through hours in the hot sun, angry flare-ups in the crowd and lots of frustration and confusion for a chance to receive a government-subsidized apartment.
    __
    The massive event sometimes descended into a chaotic mob scene filled with anger and impatience. Some 62 people needed medical attention and 20 of them were transported to a hospital, authorities said. A baby went into a seizure in the heat and was stabilized at a hospital. People were removed on stretchers and when a throng of people who had been waiting hours in a line were told to move to another line, people started pushing, shoving and cursing, witnesses said.
    __
    Still, officials of East Point declared the day a success. Nobody was arrested and nobody was seriously injured, they said. It was an assessment roundly challenged by many of the people who had to go through it.
    __
    Kim Lemish, executive director of the East Point Housing Authority, said the event marked the first time the city has offered Section 8 housing applications since 2002. The waiting list that lasted eight years had depleted, she said, and the agency was beginning a new one. So people braved all the physical difficulties just to get on a waiting list that could keep them waiting for years.
    __
    Lemish said the agency had expected about 10,000 people but three times as many showed up. Many were just accompanying those looking for an application. Some 13,000 applications were handed out.
    __
    Concern is rising that a similar scene could occur Thursday when the housing authority of this small city begins accepting the completed applications. Wednesday’s event was only to hand out the paperwork. The housing authority will begin accepting applications at 9 a.m.
    __
    Some of the crowd waited for two days at the Tri-Cities Plaza shopping center. As the temperature rose Wednesday, people fell ill.
    __
    Sgt. Cliff Chandler, spokesman for the East Point Police Department, said a toddler was treated earlier in the morning for “some type of seizure,” Chandler said…

    I just can’t wait until the local right wing talk radio — maybe not just the local — filters its racist reaction and jokes down through coworkers and conservative friends.

    Hilarious, but the right wing didn’t just figure this stuff out. Southern strategy and all that…

    I always thought that TWIB was This Week in Baseball. I’m pretty sure that’s not Mel Allen so yes I am scared.

    Is thinking some of those church hats are crazy … racist?

    Sheeet … I wish Obama would fire Rahm and hire Jay-Z instead. Though, yeah, him being bigger than Trump and all there’s no guarantee that more progressive legislation will get passed. He’ll put on enough strong-arming shows to make teh libruls happy, though.
