Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

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

Battle won, war still ongoing.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

I know this must be bad for Joe Biden, I just don’t know how.

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

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

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

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

Roe isn’t about choice, it’s about freedom.

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

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

I’d try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

Prediction: the GOP will rethink its strategy of boycotting future committees.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

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

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

WTH? I Don’t Know Where Anyone Is Either

I’ve been working and popped over to see what’s new before shutting down for the night, and it looks like everyone has been raptured or the other FPs are having a party and forgot to invite us. Anyway, here’s an open thread for you.

I’m not sure what’s going on here, but Twitter is all aflutter because IQ45 is having another night of meltdowns and went after John Legend and Chrissy Teigen in some incomprehensible tweet (I know, redundant).

Tomorrow is going to be awesome https://t.co/bOx8otTKt5

I’m thinking if Nancy P comes out for impeachment hearings in the next few weeks, the mental implosion will be complete.

    The pu$$y assed bitch was going on about Lester Holt criminal justice reform special. He brought Teigen and Legend into his tweets, even though they didn’t say anything in the special…he’s having a me Me ME meltdown.

    There’s nothing Trump can inflict on John Legend and Chrissy Teigen beyond these futile outbursts. They won’t be hurt or damaged at all. You and I will point and laugh — at Trump. He’s figuratively just wasting ammo on them. But if anyone who works for him points that out, they’re endangering their job. Which is a great situation for those who like to point and laugh at Trump.

    I used to use that site, but in the past few months I believe (per commenter JPL) that it was taken down. But I didn’t think TrumpTwitterArchive was maintained by Trump or WH interests. Could be wrong. Anyhow, I don’t bother unless someone calls attention to an especially crazed or unhinged tweetstorm, and I can always google my way in if needed.

    I don’t think you’re going to be waiting much more than a few weeks. Impeachment is coming and I think the Dems think they might have him dead to rights. Keep an eye on Adam Schiff.

    @SiubhanDuinne: Speaking of his feed, I figured out today that Trump picked up 1.1 million followers in a 2-3 day period this week. And nearly every single one — I mean like more than 95% — are fake and most have fewer than 3 followers. I’m trying to figure out 1. How they did it and 2. Why they did it.

    @Jason Consolidation: How? Bots. It’s easy to have computer programs to create Twitter accounts in mass. Why? To control the conversation on twitter. Have 10,000 bots tweet something with lots of likes from the rest and whatever they want is trending #1 on Twitter.

    Right up there with “Never get in a land war in Asia” should be “Never get in a Twitter fight with Chrissy Teigen.” And now U.S. presidents have done both.

    I am terrified by her, and I don’t even have a Twitter account. She is a remorseless killing machine. As @RealDonaldTrump is about to discover.

    Just got official statement from Customs and Border Protection.

    “CBP was notified of a vessel preparing to embark an unknown number of passengers in Freeport and requested that the operator of the vessel coordinate with U.S. and Bahamian government officials.”

    This ferry I’m on is operated by Balearia — a major company with a regular schedule

    1 hour ago
    Just interviewed @CBPFlorida when we got off ferry in FL. They say they would have accepted and processed the Bahamians, and blame the ferry company Balearia.

    CBP says they tried to coordinate with Balearia but company “made a business decision” to take the evacuees off the boat.

    AND blown up a chance to end the war in Afghanistan in the last 72 hours,

    You don’t really believe that, do you? At best, the US troops would have finally come home from a place we never should have invaded*, no doubt under somewhat embarrassing terms. And I would have applauded that result because, again, we never should have invaded to begin with**, but the war would have continued, and will not end until our supposed allies, the elected govt of Afghanistan, had been completely obliterated. We know this because they were not involved in the negotiations at the insistence of the Taliban. The only reason the President of Afghanistan was going to be at Camp David for the signing of the agreement is because, as everyone knows, no non-aggression pact is complete with out a sacrificial lamb being slaughtered at the alter of peace.

    * we should never invade a country if we are not going to invest the necessary resources to ensure favorable results.

    ** see above.

    @Aleta: easy to blame the ferry company, that’s been the MO for every repugnant policy that this admin has implemented.

    Just based on their history over the last 3 years I fully expect it will come out that this was yet another drumpf admin order, surprised that the action was exposed this quickly.

    Trump Twitter Archive is a private website. It has no official connection to Trump’s Twitter account. They can do whatever they want (although the missing tweets seem to have been a temporary glitch).
