Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Bark louder, little dog.

There is no right way to do the wrong thing.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

“Until such time as the world ends, we will act as though it intends to spin on.”

The way to stop violence is to stop manufacturing the hatred that fuels it.

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

Text STOP to opt out of updates on war plans.

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

You know it’s bad when the Project 2025 people have to create training videos on “How To Be Normal”.

White supremacy is terrorism.

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

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

A fool as well as an oath-breaker.

Let me file that under fuck it.

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

Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls 2 years from now.

Nothing says ‘pro-life’ like letting children go hungry.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

We are learning that “working class” means “white” for way too many people.

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

Every reporter and pundit should have to declare if they ever vacationed with a billionaire.

As you may have noticed

As you may have noticed (actually, there is no way anyone has noticed- I think I have two readers- Thanks mom and dad!), there have been some name issues. This lil hole in the web was originally title The Curmudgeon’s Corner, only for me to find out that the name was astonishly uncreative. There are 900 other similar sites with the name. I then tried a hick talks politics, but hated it. I am not a hick, and I don’t just talk about politics. After much more thought than I should have wasted on it, I have decided on the new name of this site. It is not changing again.
