The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...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, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

This headline is funny and I'd like to give people a laugh however I refuse to cluck on or share the sun. Does it exist elsewhere

This was about the only non-tabloid source I found, though they're just quoting the other article.

Got an address? And maybe the number of the reservation desk?

The address is the border. No, not the one with the wall. The other one.

Although, they really SHOULD build a wall, to keep all the racist americans out. Make trump pay for it all.

It's unlikely to be up to anywhere else's standards. I can't imagine the Grauniad publishing it. And while the FT's crossword is famous for being pink and hard in the morning, I doubt they'd find space for it either.
