Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Peak wingnut was a lie.

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

We still have time to mess this up!

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

We are aware of all internet traditions.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

This blog will pay for itself.

In my day, never was longer.

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

Republicans can’t even be trusted with their own money.

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

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

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

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

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

Looks like they started earlier today. It’s the day that Republican Senators tie themselves to Donald Trump’s corruption for the rest of time.

Today is a day for more debate. The wrongly-named Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana is now speaking.

Sorry I’m late with this.

Separate rumors are floating that Democrats and Republicans want to delay the vote to enthrone Donald Trump I until next week. I can see why Democrats might want to do this, but not Republicans. The State of the Union is scheduled for next Tuesday, February 4, and I would think they would want King Donald I to take a victory lap. I see Mistermix has already speculated on this.

Today is the first of two question days. The Democrats are said to have been collecting questions to eliminate duplicates and organize them into topics. What’s your question? Will it be asked?

Let’s see what kind of lies and smears the Republicans can come up with today. And whether they take note of John Bolton’s book. The commentary from lawyers yesterday on my Twitter feed was that a good lawyer incorporates new material into their argument. Once again, I probably won’t be watching most of it.
