Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

This blog will pay for itself.

Everything is totally normal and fine!!!

The low info voters probably won’t even notice or remember by their next lap around the goldfish bowl.

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

If you can’t control your emotions, someone else will.

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

Trump should be leading, not lying.

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

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

The rest of the comments were smacking Boebert like she was a piñata.

Let there be snark.

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

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

When they say they are pro-life, they do not mean yours.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

Disappointing to see gov. newsom with his finger to the wind.

Republicans cannot even be trusted with their own money.

There are some who say that there are too many strawmen arguments on this blog.

“Facilitate” is an active verb, not a weasel word.

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

    @lahke: Dammit! I can’t find the emoji for a pin-dropping sound.

    ETA: And why is it suddenly so foggy, and where is that eerie music coming from?

    Just saw that Jeff Bezos bought some new digs in The Hills(Beverly Hills).  Checked the place out on Google Maps, got huge hedges surrounding the place to keep out prying eyes.

    Kind of eerie rendition of a familiar tune.

    Not eerie per se aside from the title but I do have a soft spot for this bouncy composition.
