Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Trumpflation is an intolerable hardship for every American, and it’s Trump’s fault.

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

Second rate reporter says what?

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

No one could have predicted…

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

I have other things to bitch about but those will have to wait.

Everything is totally normal and fine!!!

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

Not all heroes wear capes.

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

The arc of the moral universe does not bend itself. it is up to us to bend it.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

How stupid are these people?

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

Books are my comfort food!

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

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

Since we are repeating ourselves, let me just say fuck that.

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

Giving in to doom is how authoritarians win.
