Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

People are complicated. Love is not.

There are more Russians standing up to Putin than Republicans.

Of course you can have champagne before noon. That’s why orange juice was invented.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

To the privileged, equality seems like oppression.

Rupert, come get your orange boy, you petrified old dinosaur turd.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Text STOP to opt out of updates on war plans.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

When you’re in more danger from the IDF than from Russian shelling, that’s really bad.

Mediocre white men think RFK Jr’s pathetic midlife crisis is inspirational. The bar is set so low for them, it’s subterranean.

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

There are times when telling just part of the truth is effectively a lie.

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

Today in our ongoing national embarrassment…

We are aware of all internet traditions.

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

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

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

If you have a substantive comment, no matter how combative, it can stay. If you are like the idiot I just banned who just cut and pasted the same comment to every post, well, you will be like that idiot. Banned.

    Just do what I do. I re-write them for comedic effect.
