We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

lol a circus run by five year olds of the worst kind. I have seen kids orders of magnitude more mature than most republicans.

No shame, no honor, no sense of decency at all. Just unhinged rabid dementia in a sociopathic rapist surrounded by arrogant nazis.

Who could have guessed, the prettiest, cry baby bitch would turn this shutdown where "he" has complete control over the US government into a petty game of the buck stops at the dems. Shocked I tell you shocked

Traitors to the United States
