Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

When do the post office & the dmv weigh in on the wuhan virus?

Balloon Juice has never been a refuge for the linguistically delicate.

Peak wingnut was a lie.

Let there be snark.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

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

The GOP is a fucking disgrace.

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

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

“woke” is the new caravan.

Take your GOP plan out of the witness protection program.

A lot of Dems talk about what the media tells them to talk about. Not helpful.

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

I’d try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.
