Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

“In the future, this lab will be a museum. do not touch it.”

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

You cannot shame the shameless.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

Dumb motherfuckers cannot understand a consequence that most 4 year olds have fully sorted out.

The fight for our country is always worth it. ~Kamala Harris

Republicans in disarray!

Welcome to day five of every-bit-as-bad-as-you-thought-it-would-be.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

You passed on an opportunity to be offended? What are you even doing here?

How any woman could possibly vote for this smug smarmy piece of misogynistic crap is beyond understanding.

Washington Post Catch and Kill, not noticeably better than the Enquirer’s.

No one could have predicted…

Disappointing to see gov. newsom with his finger to the wind.

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

Oppose, oppose, oppose. do not congratulate. this is not business as usual.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

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

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

Humiliatingly small and eclipsed by the derision of millions.

Special Angel Match – First Dibs for the Night Shift

We have a special Angel Match for the night shift because you guys didn’t have a chance at a similar daytime Angel Match last week.

Friend of the blog, Andrew will match the first 4 donations of $250 to the Four Directions Native vote effort in Virginia.

Your $250 + Andrew’s $250 = $500 which will be matched by the external donor match they found for us, for a total of $1,000!

To be matched, tell us about your donation in the comments or by email to WaterGirl.


Donate

We also have a continuation of the $500 anonymous Angel Match from earlier today that will match up to $50 per person.  (Also a 4x match.)

Our best bet for stopping the lawlessness, or at least slowing it down, is a big win in Virginia.  Early voting starts in just over 5 weeks, so we want to get the funds to Four Directions as soon as possible.

      In for $100.

      (As frequently discussed here, I grew up in Virginia and have family and friends there, so its weird sui-generis politics are still of great interest to me.)

      @Matt McIrvin: Thank you!  We are hoping that Virginia will be the beginning of showing them the door.

      By them, I do not mean your friends and family. :-)

      We are 4/5 of the way through this anonymous $500 match.
