Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

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

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

Republicans would impeach Biden if he bit into a whole Kit Kat rather than breaking the sections apart.

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

You come for women, you’re gonna get your ass kicked.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

The revolution will be supervised.

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

“That’s what the insurrection act is for!”

You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.

How can republicans represent us when they don’t trust women?

Republican obstruction dressed up as bipartisanship. Again.

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

Can we lighten up on the doomsday scenarios?

Shut up, hissy kitty!

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

Ron DeSantis, the grand wizard, oops, governor of FL.

I wonder if trump will be tried as an adult.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!
