Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

They think we are photo bombing their nice little lives.

Nikki Haley, who can’t acknowledge ‘slavery’, is a pathetic shill.

White supremacy is terrorism.

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

Republicans in disarray!

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

Spilling the end game before they can coat it in frankl luntz-approved dogwhistles.

I’m more Christian than these people and I’m an atheist.

with the Kraken taking a plea, the Cheese stands alone.

It’s not hopeless, and we’re not helpless.

No Justins, No Peace

He really is that stupid.

Let’s finish the job.

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

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

The Supreme Court cannot be allowed to become the ultimate, unaccountable arbiter of everything.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

Prediction: the gop will rethink its strategy of boycotting future committees.

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

We need to vote them all out and restore sane Democratic government.

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