    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.”

              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?

                    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 🤷

                                    Taco Bell did this as an April Fool’s joke 31 years ago inn the New York Times. The slogan was “Run for the border” at the time which was prophetic.

                                      it is less satire and more something that was done already

                                          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.”
