Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

The revolution will be supervised.

Well, whatever it is, it’s better than being a Republican.

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

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

Their shamelessness is their super power.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

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

Come on, man.

We still have time to mess this up!

Republicans: The threats are dire, but my tickets are non-refundable!

We will not go back.

Republicans do not trust women.

White supremacy is terrorism.

This really is a full service blog.

It’s pointless to bring up problems that can only be solved with a time machine.

Giving in to doom is how authoritarians win.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

They don’t have outfits that big. nor codpieces that small.

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

Prediction: the gop will rethink its strategy of boycotting future committees.

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

The “burn-it-down” people are good with that until they become part of the kindling.

Lick the third rail, it tastes like chocolate!

A tidy little explanation of the shrinking budget surplus that I found from a neat little site called Ipse Dixit.
