Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Today’s GOP: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

Bark louder, little dog.

I’m pretty sure there’s only one Jack Smith.

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

They think we are photo bombing their nice little lives.

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

This fight is for everything.

You cannot shame the shameless.

No Justins, No Peace

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

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

Republicans in disarray!

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

The revolution will be supervised.

If you’re pissed about Biden’s speech, he was talking about you.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

The most dangerous place for a black man in America is in a white man’s imagination.

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

If you are still in the GOP, you are an extremist.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

    At last. A little recognition for the City on a Mound (probably can’t tell when flying over :)) I’m a lurker and occasional giver of brilliant, insightful and thought-provoking commentary* [starting sometime around the Fountain Hills, AZ Garbage Contract Wars (ca. 2 aught and 10)]. I would be open to being invited.

    *I have taught my dog to bark this at me.

    “BC in Illinois” actually lives in St Louis County (since the Obama administration).
    I would be interested — and available anytime after 7:30pm.

    So what is it about Wed. nights in St. Louis? I too am already committed to another activity next Wed. Catch you next time you are in town Steve in the ATL. In the meantime, while I am not a particularly great people organizer if one of the other St Louis folks wants to take on that mantle I will make every effort to be present at whatever time & place winds up getting scheduled.

    @Steve in the ATL: in your whole life? I see you posting from hither and yon and figure that you travel a lot for bidness, so you may get back here someday.

    In the meantime, when Quinerly returns, maybe we will do a meet up in the greater St Louis area.
