Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The new republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

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

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

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

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

We’re not going back!

Israel is using food as a weapon of war. Unforgivable.

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

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

No one could have predicted…

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

I’d try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

“But what about the lurkers?”

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

The choice is between normal and crazy.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

There are more Russians standing up to Putin than Republicans.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

Republicans can’t even be trusted with their own money.

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

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Update at 10:30 a.m.: Angel Match #6 is complete, and Angel Match #7 has begun!

Another Balloon Juice Angel appeared in my inbox this morning!

We won’t add the angel matches until each match is complete, but that will add $2,000 to the $21,615 – taking us (virtually) to $23,615.

We need $1,385 from Balloon Juice peeps in the thermometer in order to get to $25,000.  

We have a special match today – matching up to $250 per person!

We are so close, let’s see if we can get this done today!

Promote the Vote Michigan 2022

We did it!!!!!  Thank you everyone!

    Reading about the GOP-endorsed candidates in MI is harrowing.
