Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

Bad news for Ron DeSantis is great news for America.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

“woke” is the new caravan.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

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

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

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

This blog will pay for itself.

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

Come on, man.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

Accountability, motherfuckers.

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

Spilling the end game before they can coat it in frankl luntz-approved dogwhistles.

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

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

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

Peak wingnut was a lie.

Mikey if the plan was to drive a bunch of rosgvardia into the center of town on their own so they could get lmaoed then it was a shitty plan. I don't need to read the thing to know that https://t.co/HffXb3Gwh3

It’s been a long stressful week, we’re all tired, and the Butter Goblin selflessly offers himself up as a chew toy…

Gotta be some bored social media pranksters working up competing versions of THE PLAN!!! right now, amirite?

Not at all… the *real* plan was to strengthen the resolve of NATO to check Russian aggression and bring all the players on to the same page. pic.twitter.com/pYWAaBsCTW

    I love that Tracey’s sole purpose at this point is to serve up hot takes to be relentlessly mocked.

    He doesn’t seem to have learned anything since that snooping incident at that base in Poland.  ??‍♀️

    @SalterWobchak: Apparently part of the Russian plan was for seven of their generals to be killed in the course of a month.  During one of my “jobs” I told my boss that crashing the system and wiping out the database was part of the plan.  Can’t argue with that logic.   https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/7-russian-generals-killed-in-ukraine-war-so-far-western-official-2844045

    And to convince Germany to spend an extra 100B euros on defense. Getting Germany to expand their military is a brilliant plan for Russia.

    @SalterWobchak:

    Someone has to do it.

    And he seems to revel in being a dumbass. I don’t think anyone should imped progress in this effort to prove him a top notch specimen.

    @TonyG:

    Don’t worry, they weren’t the “good” generals. After all they aren’t around to complain about not being around any longer.

    Part of the fun of being on Twitter is enjoying the often brilliant take downs of clowns like Tracey. Snarkalicious!

    @TonyG:  And the Russian tankers that ran over their commander were also just following the plan. (I love how this is described as “morale challenges.” This seems like something a bit more serious than just a challenge.)

    @mdblanche: You know how crappy the Russian soldiers are? They have trouble killing a guy they run over with a tank.

    To quote one of my favorite stand up comedians,  “I don’t know anything about helicopters either but if I see one in a tree then I know somebody effed up!”

    @VOR: I did like the German who was quoted here a few weeks ago. Something like “So the plan is that Germany will build up an army, march through Poland, and invade Russia? Just wanting to get that in writing ahead of time.”

    @satby: Among others, Centrist Fan Account (@Wilson_Valdez) does a good job unloading sarcasm on “Glem” Greenwald.

    Mr. Valdez, in the heading for his Twitter account, proudly discloses that the serious Mr. Sirota called it “the worst account on Twitter.”
