I was reading over the Executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America and saw this section:
Sec. 5. Additional Action. The Secretary of Interior may solicit public and intergovernmental input regarding additional patriots to honor, particularly in light of America’s semiquincentennial celebration, and shall recommend action to me, through the Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy.
So my question is...what else can we recommend to be renamed? I think we've become so used to having the left rename things with little to no blowback that we think it's not important. But it is. Remember they renamed all the squaw things. WE don't have to go back to that but why not rename them with patriot names instead?
You're joking, surely.
They renamed Lake Calhoun in Minneapolis to some unpronounceable Indian name. That should be changed back. Also, it should still be the Sears Tower. That would be a good way to mess with liberal rats in Chicago.
It’s one of the EO signed today, see whitehouse.gov/news for the list.
It actually makes sense in that, with a quick look at a map, the US coastline is longer than Mexico’s !
The subject EO is not a joke.
Nope. It happened. https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/restoring-names-that-honor-american-greatness/
It would be nice to see the face of Rush Limbaugh carved into Mount Rushmore, but I digress.

He negotiates. “Gulf of the Americas” might work.
What is there to negotiate? He could call rename it whatever he wants.
Every military base should go back to their old names!
The Gulf of California should be renamed to The Gulf of Mexico. It is entirely contained in Mexico. We can’t make Mexico do that, but we can make the U.S. government do it. And think of all the confusion it will cause! It should be fun to watch.
The Department of Education should be renamed to the Department of Indoctrination until it can be fully dismantled.
The state of Rhode Island should be renamed to Rhode. Or Road. It is not an island, and the h in Rhode is simply too hard to say. Long Island should remain Long Island. It is an island, and it is long.
The Democrat party should be renamed to Satan’s Minions.
The Washington Commanders should be renamed to the Washington Redskins. And the Cleveland Guardians should be renamed to the Cleveland Indians.
The Washington Nationals should be renamed to the Washington Senators.
Assawoman Bay should keep its name. It’s an awesome name.
When the CFL Baltimore Stallions moved to Montreal, they became the Alouettes. No sports team should ever be given a French name. There’s no way it will ever sound masculine. That’s as sissy a name as there ever was. They should be renamed the Stallions. That’s a manly name.
The disease known as Black Lung should be renamed Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanokoniosis. The new name should be used on all federal tax forms that currently refer to Black Lung.
The Washington Post should be renamed Fishwrap, because that’s all it’s good for.
That’s just for a start.
Yes! The Washington Wizards should be the Bullets! I remember them as the Baltimore Bullets. Great name. All of DC’s teams need to be renamed.
And I’m with you on the Tappan Zee Bridge, too. That’s a cool name.
I suggest renaming the District of Columbia to the District Interested in Crazy Kooky Stuff.
The District of MAGA would explode heads!
The Washington Commanders should be renamed to the Washington Redskins. And the Cleveland Guardians should be renamed to the Cleveland Indians.
Stanford should be renamed to the Indians, as well.
American Fork, and Now-also-American Fork, utah
Canadian River = American River
Ontario CA = upstateNewYork, CA
Lake Ontario = Lake upstateNewYork
New England = Old America
New mexico = East Arizona
etc etc ...
They renamed Lake Calhoun in Minneapolis to some unpronounceable Indian name.
Lake Wannahockaloogie?
That is a very hopeful name. I want something that reflects its history though.
You could use the acronym if it’s too long.
Squaw Valley in Iowa or Nebraska. I forget which.
