Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

You are either for trump or for democracy. Pick one.

We are learning that “working class” means “white” for way too many people.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

I did not have this on my fuck 2025 bingo card.

SCOTUS: It’s not “bribery” unless it comes from the Bribery region of France. Otherwise, it’s merely “sparkling malfeasance”.

The republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

To the privileged, equality seems like oppression.

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

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

Petty moves from a petty man.

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty. ~Thomas Jefferson

All hail the time of the bunny!

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

The unpunished coup was a training exercise.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

This country desperately needs a functioning fourth estate.

In after Baud. Damn.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

America is going up in flames. The NYTimes fawns over MAGA celebrities. No longer a real newspaper.

    Thank you for reposting, AL. We haven’t heard from Big R since you announced your absence; his unrequited heart will have to wait until next time, I guess

    @schrodingers_cat: Gonzales; he seems a bit more prepared on policy, and also seems to have a better Rolodex. Either would be a vast improvement upon Charlie Baker.

    @efgoldman: Next summer, choose a weekend, and I’ll bring a fiddler (if she’s not off somewhere learning to be an astronaut).
