Nearly 100 Babylon Bee joke stories have come true
2023-03-27
[Fox News] "The problem isn't that our satire is too close to reality," Seth Dillon told Fox News. "It’s that reality is too close to satire, so our jokes keep coming true." The fulfilled prophecies include a wide range of topics and include jokes about Democrats and Republicans alike.

The Bee published one article, "To Improve Public Perception, Kamala Harris Taking Likability Lessons From Hillary Clinton," in July 2021. A month later, Axios reported that a former Clinton advisor hosted a dinner to discuss how to defend Vice President Kamala Harris from bad press.

In September 2022, the Bee joked about the economy with the headline, "9 Reasons Not To Worry About The Tanking Economy." Just two days later, the Washington Post published the headline "7 ways a recession could be good for you financially."
I wonder if they have a time machine? Shouldn't we have a time machine graphic?
On Feb. 3, 2023, the Bee posted the headline "Biden Says He’ll Shoot Down Chinese Spy Balloon As Soon As He’s Done Letting It Spy." One day later, Biden announced that the balloon was shot down over the Atlantic Ocean after it finished crossing the United States, arguing that he waited so debris wouldn't fall on civilians.
I think the Bee story is closer to the 'truth'.

#1  The Bee does seem to have uncanny abilities. If only they would get on with it and wish Team Brandon out into the cornfield.
