Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Dear media: perhaps we ought to let Donald Trump speak for himself!

Is trump is trying to break black America over his knee? signs point to ‘yes’.

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

75% of people clapping liked the show!

I really should read my own blog.

The words do not have to be perfect.

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.

The Giant Orange Man Baby is having a bad day.

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

No Kings: Americans standing in the way of bad history saying “Oh, Fuck No!”

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

The only way through is to slog through the muck one step at at time.

Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. keep building.

Dear Washington Post, you are the darkness now.

It is possible to do the right thing without the promise of a cookie.

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

Someone should tell Republicans that violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, or possibly the first.

After dobbs, women are no longer free.

If America since Jan 2025 hasn’t broken your heart, you haven’t loved her enough.

If you are still in the gop, you are either an extremist yourself, or in bed with those who are.

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.
