Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

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

You cannot love your country only when you win.

Everybody saw this coming.

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

So fucking stupid, and still doing a tremendous amount of damage.

If you’re gonna whine, it’s time to resign!

When I was faster i was always behind.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

Conservatism: there are people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

American history and black history cannot be separated.

This chaos was totally avoidable.

Let there be snark.

Oh FFS you might as well trust a 6-year-old with a flamethrower.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

Stamping your little feets and demanding that they see how important you are? Not working anymore.

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

After dobbs, women are no longer free.

Keep the Immigrants and deport the fascists!
