Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

It’s time for the GOP to dust off that post-2012 autopsy, completely ignore it, and light the party on fire again.

“woke” is the new caravan.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Take your GOP plan out of the witness protection program.

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

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

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

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

The willow is too close to the house.

Republican obstruction dressed up as bipartisanship. Again.

After roe, women are no longer free.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

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

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

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

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

Fuck the extremist election deniers. What’s money for if not for keeping them out of office?

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

Sorry, Betty, Adam…

Althugh — and I say this as someone who grew up two blocks from the Major Deegan Expressway, during the height of leaded-gasoline usage — perhaps Queens native Trump just had an environmentally impaired childhood:

    If there is a pattern, then this will be it when the question arises, “If Jeffrey Epstein didn’t kill himself, the wo did?”

    The Energy Secretary: The Ambassador to the EU did it.

    The Ambassador to the EU: The president’s lawyer did it.

    The President’s Lawyer: Igor did it.

    Igor: Lev did it.

    Lev: No, the president’s lawyer definitely did it.

    The President’s Lawyer: The aide to the Ukrainian president did it.

    The Aide to the Ukrainian President: The special U.S. envoy to Ukraine did it.

    The Special U.S. Envoy to Ukraine: No, the president’s lawyer definitely did it.

    The President’s Lawyer: Okay, then…the former vice president’s son did it!

    The former vice president’s son: The president did it. Just ask the former ambassador to Ukraine.

    The former Ambassador to Ukraine: Yes, the president did it.

    The President: The vice president did it.

    The Vice President: [Looks around, sees there’s no one else to blame] Aw, phooey. [Jumps off ledge]

    The chief of staff: We all did it! We do it all the time! get over it!

    So this person’s take was that “it’s guns with people” that kill people? Oh well. Can’t argue with stopid stupid. (Damn leaded-gasoline.)

    Also too, where’s the damn new site! I was promised a new site, dammit! /foot-stomp.gif

    Heh:

    Steve Bannon, the former White House chief strategist, will be a star witness at the trial in Washington of Roger Stone, a longtime political operative and ally of Donald Trump, a court heard on Wednesday.

    The surprise announcement was made during opening statements on Wednesday by prosecutor Aaron Zelinsky, who told the court that Stone had “straight-up lied” to the US Congress about aspects of the 2016 election campaign “because the truth looked bad for Donald Trump”.

    @?BillinGlendaleCA: Well, I think Cole said it would happen sometime around the 6th or the 8th, so I decided, (eta unlike you), to split the difference before I started complaining. ;)

    But since we’re still on the old site, I’d like to complain!

    p.a.

    PBS did an American Experience about the first medical examiner in the US (world?), in NYC, from about the late 1880’s into the 1920’s. Very soon after the advent of the popularization of the automobile he and his team had to investigate a series of violent, senseless killings committed by NY/NJ refinery workers. He established the dangers of leaded gasoline before 1920. Standard Oil took the lead in applying political and economic pressure in suppressing the science. The research languished in the ME files for decades.

    @p.a.: Wow! I hope more people here see this. Since before the 1920’s. Again, wow. (But it sure did make those early gas engines run smoooth, which is far more important than the public health.)
