MEXICO CITY (The Borowitz Report)—In a move likely to stir controversy, Mexico has officially renamed the Liberty Bell “the TACO Bell,” the Mexican president announced on Monday.
Effective immediately, the landmark will be referred to as the TACO Bell in all Mexican atlases, encyclopedias, and history textbooks, President Claudia Sheinbaum said.
In her announcement, she gave Donald J. Trump “full credit” for the name change.
“Thanks to Donald Trump, when one thinks of America, one no longer thinks of liberty,” she said. “One thinks of TACO.”
Almost ate it. I hate the world we live in
I totally ate it
I ate. And then saw your comment. I agree.
I did eat it, and I’m still eating it. I choose to manifest that this is a true thing in my universe.
I noticed the comm, then elected to eat it anyway
Helps that my metal type deck in Pokemon TCGP is named “Taco Bell *DONG*”
Woulda been “*BONG*” but apparently while they are okay with penis synonyms they draw the line at drug paraphernalia 🤷
Well tbf dong is common in some languages…
For instance, north koreas rockets are named something like type-o dong or something like that?
So there’s these serious ass Korean guys staring at a missile test of what I can only write as type o’ dong. Like an inquisitive Irish man asking about my penis.
Imaginary Irish guy: “oh type o’ dong to ya?” Me: “I dunno, slightly above average? Thicker near the top than the base… There’s no curve if that’s what you’re asking…”
“Dong” being penis made this even funnier.
“You can show your dong to kids, but heaven help you if you teach them about marijuana!”
Taco bell dong sounds like what you get when doing anal after eating Taco Bell.
Gulf of America Uno reverse… not eating the onion, but it would be hilarious if they went for it as a stunt.
National Treasure 3: Nic Cage follows a deadly trail of clues that reveal the United States is actually Mexico.
In an adventure that takes him from one Taco Bell franchise to another across the American South until he gains 200lbs and early onset diabetes
If this got made, I would proudly NOT pirate the movie and make sure I and everyone I know paid full price for it.
This dumb dumb world that we live in these days, I had to make sure that this was fake. I was about the fucking cry. This is too much. Too extra. You can’t do this. This is like the War of the Worlds Radio Broadcast like the aliens have landed, yo. All is lost!
I’ll admit that I got about a paragraph in before I had to check if I was eating an onion.

Bullshit, it wasn’t 31 years ago, they did that in the 90s.
And the 90s were only 10 years ago.
I THOUGHT THIS WAS STILL THE 90s!!!1!
I’m afraid I have some bad news.
From the other side, activist Paul Rogat Loeb lamented that the hoax “felt too real for comfort” in an era “when every value, ideal, and public symbol has a profit-seeking sponsor”.
I’m more surprised the simpsons didn’t do it first.
I literally lol’d at this one
Chihuahua voice
Yo quiero mas rebeeeelll!
Yeah stale onion lol
I seem to recall a news report introducing the 5-blade Gillette shaver - for real, and referencing a historical The Onion article with an irate CEO of the same company rudely rebuking his engineers for suggesting it was impossible to produce.
I realize this is just satire, but can the same happen here where an Onion article leads to the bell’s renaming, at least in the literature of some countries?
