We officially love The Onion.
Plenty of conservative-leaning media outlets have been making fun of Schumer and the Dem’s shutdown, but when The Onion (who honestly seems to slam people on both sides of the aisle) goes after Chucky well, that’s super special.
They couldn’t have been more accurate about this if they tried:

But embarrassed.
The Onion did also receive some positive feedback for this tweet:

Or at least we think it’s positive.
Why is this on he Onion? This is a real news headline.

This actually hints to an important dysfunction in our current system. Politicians make little progress so that they seem "needed." #TermLimits

Did The Onion accidentally stumble into real news here?
Even better.
Look out CNN! (ha!)
