Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

After dobbs, women are no longer free.

Somebody needs to explain to DeSantis that nobody needs to do anything to make him look bad.

The most dangerous place for a black man in America is in a white man’s imagination.

“That’s what the insurrection act is for!”

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

Ron DeSantis, the grand wizard, oops, governor of FL.

Republicans don’t lie to be believed, they lie to be repeated.

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

with the Kraken taking a plea, the Cheese stands alone.

Every one of the “Roberts Six” lied to get on the court.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

“And when the Committee says to “report your income,” that could mean anything!

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

Republicans don’t trust women.

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

Let me file that under fuck it.

There’s always a light at the end of the frog.

Stop using mental illness to avoid talking about armed white supremacy.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

Conservatism: there are people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

FFS people, this was a good thing. take the win.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

This is rich: Fox Corporation board member got all up in his feels when a violent mob attacked his former workplace on January 6: [CNN]

Washington (CNN)Former House Speaker Paul Ryan was “sobbing” as he watched the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol unfold on television, a new book reports.

Ryan, who has criticized former President Donald Trump and his hold on the Republican Party, “found himself sobbing” during the insurrection, journalist Mark Leibovich writes in his forthcoming book, “Thank You For Your Servitude,” a copy of which was obtained by CNN.

“I spent my whole adult life in that building,” Ryan, who served as a Republican congressman from Wisconsin for two decades, later told Leibovich, according to the book. “And I saw my friends, a lot of cops, some of my old security detail — I’m still friends with a bunch of those guys. It really disturbed me, foundationally.”

Not “foundationally” enough to quit his lucrative board gig with the media conglomerate that was instrumental in elevating an unstable person to the presidency and then circulating lies and disinformation about the election that helped gin up the mob, however.

In a sense, Ryan is a worse person and a greater danger to America than the deranged members of the mob who beat cops with flag poles and smeared shit on the walls. At least those feral assholes were sincere enough about their delusions to put their asses on the line for it. They earned their punishment.

Ryan is one of the many cynical Republican shitbags who harnessed the lunacy of the Trump movement to realize his undergraduate “austerity for thee and profits for me” dreams. Fuck him and his tears.

Open thread.
