Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

The words do not have to be perfect.

He seems like a smart guy, but JFC, what a dick!

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

Take your GOP plan out of the witness protection program.

A lot of Dems talk about what the media tells them to talk about. Not helpful.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

The republican caucus is already covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

This really is a full service blog.

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

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

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

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

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

Second rate reporter says what?

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

Ah, the different things are different argument.

Here’s the mighty truck convoy that was supposed to squeeze DC like a boa:

Bob Bolus is on the highway headed down to DC.

We have driven up and down the line, His 18 wheeler is the only one in the convoy followed by four or five pick up trucks and SUVs (that we can tell). All other 18ws passing him

His claim of having 25 trucks driving down is false pic.twitter.com/xvEeqxobnm

— Julio-César Chávez (@JulioCesrChavez) February 23, 2022

According to The Daily Beast, the protest was delayed when Bolus’s truck had two flat tires. Lord, what a bunch of clowns.

    I’ve been getting earworms of that song since they started talking about their convoy (Convoy!) Hell, I barely remember it and I think I’ve got about a decade on BC!

    You know they actually made a movie based on that song, right? I think Kris Kristofferson might have been in it – or maybe it was Mac Davis. Shoot, now I’m going to have to look it up.

    One yuge difference between Canada and the good old US of A is the basic niceness of the citizenry.

    Americans are generally speaking, a lot less conflict averse than our northern neighbors in daily interactions with others.

    The average greater DC resident is already in a bad mood during their commute because the traffic always sucks.  Somebody purposely trying to make traffic worse is likely to get their ass kicked.

    Cathie from Canada

    February 23, 2022 at 5:39 pm

    Do not underestimate these guys. They want to overthrow the government and think their big trucks give them the right to do whatever they want.

    Here in Canada we also thought they were clowns. But they managed to raise millions of dollars — about half from the United States — and that attracted more clowns to the “cause” and made them look credible.

    In spite of Tucker and others chattering about thousands of trucks, they really never had more than 50 to 100 actual big rigs as they drove across the country, but they also attracted several hundred trucks and vans and motor homes as they went. And it doesn’t take very many big rigs to create absolute chaos on freeways and on city streets.

    The mistake the city of Ottawa made was to think these guys were just like all of the other protest marches that Ottawa gets on many weekends all year round — the ones that show up Saturday or Sunday, walk past the Parliament Buildings, listen to speeches, make their point, and then everybody goes home.

    The trucks never intended to do that, they parked and stayed, they wanted chaos and insurrection and they got it. They hated all the people who live in Ottawa and they thought it was great fun to run their engines and honk their horns day and night.  Really, it was the horn honking that finally made Canadians realize these guys were just bullies and a**holes — they actually thought they could force Trudeau to resign — the QAnon elements in their midst had constructed an elaborate scenario involving the Governor General somehow, which was news to her.  It also got real when trucks blocked the Ambassador Bridge and other border crossings across the country.

    It was only after Trudeau brought in the Emergencies Act — which included provisions to freeze bank accounts, cancel vehicle insurance, call in loans, confiscate trucks and money, and otherwise threaten to pauperize these people and anyone who supported them — that the insurrectionists started to back down and the whole thing fell apart for the time being. They still have dozens of trucks parked on farmland near Ottawa, I guess because they think maybe they can come back someday.

    I suspect that some of the money they got in January and early February was actually from Russia, who would love to overturn Trudeau to destabilize NATO and disrupt the Canadian alliance with Biden.  On twitter we have noticed an extraordinary increase in the number of bots during the last three weeks too, also trying to undermine Trudeau.

    I remember when she looked like a cute hippie flower child.

    The Wiki notes this tidbit about her.

    From 1969 to 1972, Ali MacGraw starred in three of the four Top 10 highest-grossing movies of the year.

    I think I am remembering this correctly. At my college in the 70s, there was a smallish, little used TV room. When “Love Story” showed for the first time on network television, the place was packed.

    I do remember the scandal when MacGraw left her husband, producer Robert Evans, for Steve McQueen. Hot couple.

    Good to know she is still around.

    @Cathie from Canada:  I agree that we should not get complacent, even though my instinct is to point and laugh.  But the Canadian truckers had the advantage of novelty (a truck protest!  In Canada!), a society less accustomed to disruptive protest, and some actual coronavirus mandates in place to oppose at the inception of the convoy-of-clowns.

    The American rerun lacks all of those things (“we object to those mandates that were repealed before we got here?”), and would probably have to pivot to a grab bag of unrelated grievances to sustain any momentum.

    American wing-nuts dropped the ball here- they should have hauled out the inflatable hot tubs in January and organized a simultaneous event in Washington.  They didn’t  Bonus points for the idiocy of driving giant trucks from Los Angeles to Washington at a time of near-record fuel prices.

    The pale imitation American version of Truckapalooza is a total shit-storm, to use Balloon-Juice’s word-of-the-day for today.

    He’s an undercover agent for the FBI

    He’s a snake in the grass I tell ya guys
    He may look dumb but that’s jus a disguise
    He’s a mastermind in the ways of espionage….

    …..
    An’ I guess I shoulda gone ahead an’ run
    But somehow I couldn’t resist the fun
    Of chasin’ them jes’ once around the parkin’ lot
    Well they’re headin’ for their car but I hit the gas
    And spun around and headed them off at the pass
    Well I was slingin’ gravel and puttin’ a ton of dust in the air
    Well I had them all out there steppin’ an’ a fetchin’
    Like their heads were on fire and their asses was catchin’
    But I figured I oughta go ahead an split before the cops got there

    @Jim, Foolish Literalist:

    I saw the title, don’t wanna hear it.

    Just like I’m not on freakbook, you can’t go back home again. My best friend, there’s a pic of him with a tie die and furry freak brother hair, we’d go to the squats in lower Manhattan to score Sid, he’s a trumper. We still talk, skirt uncomfortable subjects, but Damn!!!

    @Nettoyeur: “Dumbkirk,” on Lake Travis, Texas.

    Comedian Brent Terhune’s 2 &1/2 minute video about that boat parade is hilarious (his boat the Magaritaville sank). Terhune’s “A Message from Q-Anon” is pretty good too.

    @Cathie from Canada: Wikipedia tells me there are 2 million semi trucks in the United States. If 99 per cent of truckers just go about their business, that would  still leave 2000 to make trouble.

    At least, Ottawa gave American law enforcement a  heads up; we’ll see what they make of it.

    @M. Bouffant: @Bill Arnold: @M. Bouffant:  Lol I said the same thing about the writers, except my first thought was that it’s also a term for a big blob of mucus.

    Bob Bolus is on the highway headed down to DC.

     

    We have driven up and down the line, His 18 wheeler is the only one in the convoy followed by four or five pick up trucks and SUVs (that we can tell). All other 18ws passing him.

    Oh goody!  Prepare for a beatdown from an entire police department, Trump trash!

    @Miss Bianca: Definitely not a novelty song, though.  100% mainstream country rock….
