Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

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

“Why isn’t this Snickers bar only a nickel?”

Never forget that he train is barreling down on Trump, even as he dances on the tracks.

Trump makes a mockery of the legal system and cowardly judges just sit back and let him.

When do the post office & the dmv weigh in on the wuhan virus?

Spilling the end game before they can coat it in frankl luntz-approved dogwhistles.

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

I was confident that someone would point it out and thought why not me.

Fuck the extremist election deniers. What’s money for if not for keeping them out of office?

I’m sure you banged some questionable people yourself. We’re allowed to grow past that.

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

Republicans can’t even be trusted with their own money.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

Pelosi: “He either is stupid, or he thinks the rest of us are.” Why not both?

Not all heroes wear capes.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

How can republicans represent us when they don’t trust women?

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

Law Enforcement At Its Finest

Just in case there were any questions as to whether there are issues of racism and corruption within the Chicago police department: an image recently surfaced of two Chicago police kneeling over a black suspect wearing deer antlers like he was a fresh kill. The picture was believed to have been taken between 1993-2003. One of the cops in the picture, Jerome Finnigan, has been sentenced to 12 years in prison for organizing robberies and home invasions and Timothy McDermott, the other cop, was fired last year from the force.

Finnigan told prosecutors that he and McDermott had arrested the man because he had “20 bags of weed,” but neither officer filed an arrest report for the case and they apparently let him go because he did not have a serious criminal background. The person who took the photo, which Finnigan said was a “spur of the moment” stunt,” has not been identified.

Law enforcement at its finest, folks.

Team Blackness also discussed narcotics cops being ordered to stop arresting suspects over 40, B.B. King’s daughters claim their father was murdered, Elon’s rant on all things San Francisco, and a man asks the city of Pendleton, Oregon, to ban farts.
