Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Republicans do not trust women.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Everybody saw this coming.

You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.

Dear legacy media: you are not here to influence outcomes and policies you find desirable.

đŸŽ¶ Those boots were made for mockin’ đŸŽ”

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

At some point, the ability to learn is a factor of character, not IQ.

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

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

Every one of the “Roberts Six” lied to get on the court.

To the privileged, equality seems like oppression.

You passed on an opportunity to be offended? What are you even doing here?

I might just take the rest of the day off and do even more nothing than usual.

Speaker Mike Johnson is a vile traitor to the House and the Constitution.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

These are not very smart people, and things got out of hand.

Bad people in a position to do bad things will do bad things because they are bad people. End of story.

Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls 2 years from now.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

When you’re a Republican, they let you do it.

Reality always lies in wait for 
 Democrats.

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

Today, pictures from valued commenter randy khan.

These are photos of my favorite signs from this year’s Women’s March in Washington. It was a pretty decent crowd, although nowhere as big as 2017, and the mood was festive, with lots of young women and teenage girls (which made me happy).

    @OzarkHillbilly:

    That was pretty awesome. She was being interviewed by NBC News when we saw her. I don’t know if it aired or not.

    The signs are great. I’m glad there was still a significant turnout despite all the controversy.

    Love the signs. Apparently we have a double-secret spell check for protest signs but the other side doesn’t. :-)

    @WaterGirl:

    Now that you mention it, I don’t recall seeing a single sign with a spelling error.

    Thanks for sharing. I really enjoyed those photos. I had a similar experience at the San Francisco march. The crowd was not as big as the last two years, but still a good turnout and the mood was hopeful.
