The satirical news publication The Onion has bought Alex Jones’ Infowars at a bankruptcy auction with the backing of families of victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.
I didn’t know anything about the sale. A few minutes ago on Bluesky I saw hard to understand post with a screengrab of Jones doing his yelling shtick on Infowars and the text said “his Onion sale”. It’s weird when seemingly impossible rare events have a 50/50 chance of being true. But now in this Trump 2.0 era - such events might happen a few times a month. Yesterday it was Gaetz as Trump’s AG pick. Today it’s The Onion owning Infowars. Will tomorrow have crazy news too? Or will we have to wait a week or two?

If we can’t have sanity, I’ll settle for hilarity.
