MURKA!! (eyeroll) Google Maps will change the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America By Jordan Valinsky, CNN Updated: 6:38 AM EST, Tue January 28, 2025 Google is complying with President Donald Trump's executive action that renamed the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. Soon, the name change will appear on Google Maps. In a post on X, Google explained that it has a "longstanding practice of applying name changes when they have been updated in official government sources." The name will be tweaked when the Geographic Names Information System, a government database of names and location data, is updated. Google will also change the name of Mount McKinley, the nation's highest peak, from Denali. Former President Barack Obama renamed the Alaska landmark to Denali in 2015 as a nod to the region's native population. Both changes stem from an executive action that Trump signed shortly after taking office last week, saying the changes "honor American greatness." "It is in the national interest to promote the extraordinary heritage of our Nation and ensure future generations of American citizens celebrate the legacy of our American heroes," the executive order said. The order criticized Obama's decision to rename McKinley as "an affront to President McKinley's life, his achievements, and his sacrifice." Drawing parallels to Trump, the order notes that McKinley "championed tariffs" and was assassinated "in an attack on our Nation's values and our success." And in a nod to the Gulf of Mexico's contributions to the US economy, Trump is "directing that it officially be renamed the Gulf of America." The executive order calls for all federal government maps and documents to "reflect its renaming." Google notes that only users in the United States will see both changes because when "official names vary between countries, Maps users see their official local name. Everyone in the rest of the world sees both names. That applies here too." ------------------------- So... America's Great Now? |

The Gulf of America. What does this have to do with anything?
Can we talk about the changes to FEMA? The Gulf of Mexico has picked up a new habit, and that habit is throwing hurricanes at us. ------------------------- I was right. |

Maybe he thinks hurricanes that develop in a Gulf of America will be under his jurisdiction and he can just fire them or use tariffs to keep them from sodomizing Sanibel Island.
Just use the Sharpie. ------------------------- Nothing screams cuck like flying a flag with another man's name on it. Edited: 01/29/2025 at 06:27 AM by RustyTruck |

Home Schoolers rejoice, you will be the first to learn about the Gulf of America, you can take that new education to a Christian school that teaches you that the world started 5000 years ago, there is no such thing as evolution, climate change and global warming are a hoax against great companies like Exxon, Texaco, BP and Shell and Chevron. You might not get all the way through your school year due to outbreaks of measles, mumps, rubella, and a myriad of other communicable diseases we almost eradicated due to compulsory immunizations. The Bible and the ten commandments will be taught as historical facts. Your religious schools will get a $7,500 credit from the government towards your tuition and you will not be required to take the PSAT, SAT or ACT to determine just how effective all those god fearing uncertified teachers were in all those relevant courses that are not part of the public school's core curriculum. You can than take the FAST in florida, which removes the the FCAT and now take ther PERT, Post Education Readiness Test, Florida's very own customized common placement test based upon the students skills and abilities, which was devised by our very own Rhonda to make these kids's participation trophies get them into our Florida Colleges and Universities. The idiocracy is complete.

The Gulf of America. What does this have to do with anything? Can we talk about the changes to FEMA? The Gulf of Mexico has picked up a new habit, and that habit is throwing hurricanes at us. If you change the name, it won't make storms anymore. Obviously trump has control of the weather machine now. |
