Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

75% of people clapping liked the show!

Speaker Mike Johnson is a vile traitor to the House and the Constitution.

I desperately hope that, yet again, i am wrong.

Beware of advice from anyone for whom Democrats are “they” and not “we.”

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

If rights aren’t universal, they are privilege, not rights.

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

They punch you in the face and then start crying because their fist hurts.

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

Peak wingnut was a lie.

People identifying as christian while ignoring christ and his teachings is a strange thing indeed.

Republicans got rid of McCarthy. Democrats chose not to save him.

Radicalized white males who support Trump are pitching a tent in the abyss.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

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

Innocent people do not delay justice.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

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

“Facilitate” is an active verb, not a weasel word.

People are complicated. Love is not.

He really is that stupid.

I thought you might like to compare your fine hat/s to the ones I saw this past Sunday at the 5th Ave. Easter Bonnet parade. Which one is your favorite? (Mine isn’t even a hat. It’s the two dapper gentlemen in their Sunday finery. Very nice!)

This is 17 yo Screamy, who really enjoyed the parade and has already picked out his/her (sorry, forgot to ask) 2024 parade costume.

    I knew the song, and I once heard an old Jack Benny radio show episode about it. But I just figured it was a quaint old thing that had died in the 1950s.

    My Long Island mother in law was big on dressing our daughters in Easter bonnets, the traditional white ones.

    Late to the parade…

    my favorite photo was of the gentlemen, on the left in pink tails and white top hat, and on the right the gentleman with a bright red top hat. So well turned out !!! Always appropriate for a fancy  ball gathering !!
