Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

We still have time to mess this up!

I was promised a recession.

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

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

If you’re pissed about Biden’s speech, he was talking about you.

I’m pretty sure there’s only one Jack Smith.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

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

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

Accountability, motherfuckers.

“More of this”, i said to the dog.

… pundit janitors mopping up after the GOP

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

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

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

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

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

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

It’s time for the GOP to dust off that post-2012 autopsy, completely ignore it, and light the party on fire again.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

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

Today in Domestic Terrorism

These fucking guys:

Dozens of members of a white supremacist group were arrested on Saturday in Idaho before they could act on plans to riot at a local Pride event, the police said.

After receiving a tip from a concerned citizen, the police detained and charged 31 people who belonged to a far-right group known as Patriot Front, said Lee White, the chief of the Coeur d’Alene Police Department, at a news conference.

They are being charged with conspiracy to riot, a misdemeanor, he said.

Bob Norris, the sheriff of Kootenai County, said that a person reported seeing a group of people jump into a U-Haul van near the intersection of Northwest Boulevard and Interstate 90 in Coeur d’Alene.

“And they were all dressed like a small army,” Sheriff Norris said. “We had units in their area, and we were able to intercept them pretty quickly.”

A few miles away, the North Idaho Pride Alliance was holding “Pride in the Park,” an annual event, at Coeur d’Alene City Park.

The Anti-Defamation League, which tracks extremist organizations and hate crimes, describes Patriot Front as a Texas-based white supremacist group that formed when members of another white supremacist group, Vanguard America, broke off after the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Va., in 2017.

The members arrested had come to Idaho from several states, the police said, including Texas, Utah, Colorado, South Dakota, Illinois, Wyoming, Washington, Oregon and Virginia. At least one of the members lived in Idaho, the authorities said.

I hope every single one of them gets jail time, their names thoroughly investigated and they are shamed by friends and family, fired from their jobs, and have a very miserable white existence until the end of their days.

And who is funding this shit? Where do these losers get the money to travel cross country to grief a pride parade?
