Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Democracy cannot function without a free press.

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

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

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

Stay strong, because they are weak.

This chaos was totally avoidable.

We can’t confuse what’s necessary to win elections with the policies that we want to implement when we do.

Finding joy where we can, and muddling through where we can’t.

The republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

A norm that restrains only one side really is not a norm – it is a trap.

So many bastards, so little time.

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

“But what about the lurkers?”

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

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

Republicans in disarray!

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

So very ready.

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

It is not hopeless, and we are not helpless.

75% of people clapping liked the show!

It’s all just conspiracy shit beamed down from the mothership.

Dear elected officials: Trump is temporary, dishonor is forever.

If a good thing happens for a bad reason, it’s still a good thing.

Is there anything finer on

Is there anything finer on a cold night than a grilled reuben, a pickle, some pickled beets and a bowl of pea soup?
