Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Polls are now a reliable indicator of what corporate Republicans want us to think.

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

Welcome to day five of every-bit-as-bad-as-you-thought-it-would-be.

Is it negotiation when the other party actually wants to shoot the hostage?

One way or another, he’s a liar.

When I was faster i was always behind.

’Where will you hide, Roberts, the laws all being flat?’

Peak wingnut was a lie.

“Alexa, change the president.”

Hey Washington Post, “Democracy Dies in Darkness” was supposed to be a warning, not a mission statement.

Hey hey, RFK, how many kids did you kill today?

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

Just because you believe it, that does not make it true.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

Trump’s cabinet: like a magic 8 ball that only gives wrong answers.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

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

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

T R E 4 5 O N

They don’t have outfits that big. nor codpieces that small.

The willow is too close to the house.

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

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

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

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.”
