Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

“I never thought they’d lock HIM up,” sobbed a distraught member of the Lock Her Up Party.

Today’s GOP: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

Bad news for Ron DeSantis is great news for America.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

Let there be snark.

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

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

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

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

Bark louder, little dog.

    I remember when you and ABL went to the DNC in Charlotte, 2012. If memory serves, you forgot to pack any pants. You posted some pretty funny threads from that road trip.

    You’re a mensch John. You had to know the ribbing you were in for about the DNC road trip with ABL, but you highlighted her appearance anyway. Should be a great segment too.

    Cole, thank you so much for introducing me (in print) to ABL. I’ve enjoyed her tweets and other venues since. Glad she’s starting to get TV exposure on TDS and elsewhere.

    ABL is having a lot of schadenfreude on her Twitter feed with Greenwald’s resignation and meltdown.  He was absolutely vile towards her back when she commented here.

    This further cements Trevor Noah’s status as my far-and-away favorite late night host.

    Congrats to you, ABL!

    @WaterGirl: I’m pleased to see so many nyms from ABL/CWG are still here 8 years later. The last time we hit the wayback machine almost all of them had dropped off by now.

    Does this mean maybe we all ought to get a life? … nah!!!

    This is life.  The only things keeping me sane during the pandemic are Balloon Juice, work, and my collection of singing potatoes.

    @WaterGirl:

    That trip should be a six episode HBO series. I call on the many talented writers who frequent this place to get to work on it.

    I’ve got Jesse Plemons playing Cole. What do you think?

    I just watched here on the West Coast and Imani Gandy was absolutely amazing!  CNN and MSNBC should be knocking down her door to be the first to sign her as a consultant.

    Just finished watching this, enjoyed it very much. ABL’s energy, passion, humor and intelligence really stood out.
