Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Washington Post Catch and Kill, not noticeably better than the Enquirer’s.

If you voted for Trump, you don’t get to speak about ethics, morals, or rule of law.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

The line between political reporting and fan fiction continues to blur.

Humiliatingly small and eclipsed by the derision of millions.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

Oh FFS you might as well trust a 6-year-old with a flamethrower.

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

No Kings: Americans standing in the way of bad history saying “Oh, Fuck No!”

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

You know it’s bad when the Project 2025 people have to create training videos on “How To Be Normal”.

This blog will pay for itself.

The way to stop violence is to stop manufacturing the hatred that fuels it.

They want us to be overwhelmed and exhausted. Focus. Resist. Oppose.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Fight for a just cause, love your fellow man, live a good life.

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

Hi Folks, just popping in to update a few things then back to fun estate-related work.

 

I will post a comment when the updates are complete; consider this an open thread but I won’t be doing any support, so don’t bother kvetching unless it makes YOU feel good.
