Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

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

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

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

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

He seems like a smart guy, but JFC, what a dick!

In after Baud. Damn.

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

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

No Justins, No Peace

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

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

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

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

Bark louder, little dog.

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

I didn’t have alien invasion on my 2023 BINGO card.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

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

In my day, never was longer.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.
