Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty. ~Thomas Jefferson

Innocent people do not delay justice.

“When somebody takes the time to draw up a playbook, they’re gonna use it.”

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

The snowflake in chief appeared visibly frustrated when questioned by a reporter about egg prices.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

A tremendous foreign policy asset… to all of our adversaries.

When I was faster i was always behind.

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

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

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

The republican caucus is covering themselves with something, and it is not glory.

Relentless negativity is not a sign that you are more realistic.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

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

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

This really is a full service blog.

Stop using mental illness to avoid talking about armed white supremacy.

Humiliatingly small and eclipsed by the derision of millions.

Republicans in disarray!

“In this country American means white. everybody else has to hyphenate.”

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Come on, man.

    Run for President. You can assemble a better team with the jackals than current occupant of the Oval office.

    I could assemble a better team with my granddaughter’s pre-K school.

    @efgoldman: a better team could be assembled by walking thru a homeless encampment and randomly picking sleeping people.
