Welcome

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, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

I don't think they can actually change the name without jumping through tons of hoops, and we know they aren't doing that. So its still DoD they just call it DoW.

Always cool when the commander in chief promises no wars, starts multiple geopolitically unprecedented conflicts and at least one war while renaming the department of defense into the department of war. Hope he gets the nobel peace price, he seems like he really deserves it.
