Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

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

They were going to turn on one another at some point. It was inevitable.

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

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

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

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

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

Consistently wrong since 2002

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

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

“Why isn’t this Snickers bar only a nickle?”

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

Not all heroes wear capes.

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Battle won, war still ongoing.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

Nevada Four Directions Native Vote

Four Directions has a new logo.  I really like it!

We have $130 left on the Angel Match from yesterday – we will match any amount up to $130 on that one in order to finish it off.   At that point, yesterday’s angel will add his $1,000 and we’ll be really close to $20,000 in the thermometer.

Then we’re back to a 6x match up to $50 per person when you post a comment with your donation amount.

Reminder: we have a new BJ Angel, everyone is eligible to be matched up to $50 per person, even if you have given previously.

Also, in case you missed it yesterday:

UncleEb asked in the comments if there was some good information that would make it easy for him to share a link – about Four Directions fundraising for Nevada – on Facebook or Twitter.  So I put together a page (not a post, so it won’t have any comments) that you can easily share.

It includes a blurb from the Four Directions website, a short summary of what of how the Native vote they turned out for AZ in 2020 and in GA for the runoff was greater than the margin of victory.  I also mention the external double-match, which means that all donations are multiplied by 3.  And the thermometer, of course!

Page that you can share on social media.

    How long is this match open? Husband’s back surgery had a hiccup (MRSA !!!!) that set us back emotionally and certainly financially. Don’t want to miss the match but we are allwise clobbered the last few and the next few weeks.

    I just put in $50 in honor of another good checkup at the oncologist with my cat. His chemo was supposed to put his cancer on pause, not cure it, but somehow it seems to have gone away entirely. I don’t really understand how the matching works, but if my $50 means they get more than $50, then that’s good!

    @sab: Oh no! Is he having to do IV antibiotics? Those can be rough.

    @sab: Hopefully this Four Directions fundraising will be done at some point this week.

    Looks like we have $1,070 in angel matches left but even after that we have the double-match that Four Directions found, so Nevada still gets 3x your donation.

    We also have some other exciting fundraising opportunities coming up, but this $25k effort will likely be the end of the matches until November.

    But don’t worry a bit about not participating in this one!  Medical stuff is expensive.

    @KayInMD (formerly Kay (not the front-pager)): Your $50 turns into $300 because of the external double match+ the angel match.

    What great news about your kitty!  We are all celebrating with you.

    A new House investigative report says the Trump White House coordinated a pressure campaign for the FDA to authorize hydroxychloroquine to fight COVID-19 after it was shown to be ineffective and potentially dangerous. https://bit.ly/3cllczM

    I just gave 50$ for me, and threw $50 in for sab for the triple match.

    And sab can pay it forward later.

    That’s $300 and $300 for the Nevada native vote.

    BREAKING: Nicolle and I cover the just-released Barr DOJ memo on how to whitewash the then non-public Mueller report. Memo says our report can be read to say Trump committed obstruction. Memo ignores facts, misrepresents facts, and gets law wrong. A DOJ low point- shame on them.

    @Anne Laurie: Thank you!  And thanks to everyone who has donated!

    We have completed yesterday’s angel match (!)

    Our angel will be adding his $1,000 in the thermometer as soon as he gets out of his work meeting.  At that point, we’ll hit the $20,000 mark!

    We are $250 into today’s angel match.

    There is $750 left on the current angel match.

    edit: No one else commented on the new logo.  Am I the only one who loves it?

    @WaterGirl: I like it very much.  There’s an elegance to it that you don’t always get with a logo.

    To my eye it’s not so much a ‘V’ as a checkmark ✅ which also works.
    Fill the oval full of ink. Punch out any boxes forcefully. Check the box firmly. Leave no doubt.

    Just put in $25. Not sure if there’s still a match around but I figured it was worth donating regardless.

    @mvr: Yes!

    Even after your donation, we still have $745 of the 6x match going on.

    @lashonharangue: Yes!  That’s $300 for Nevada!

    $695 left!
