Summary

Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is pushing legislation to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, arguing the U.S. military and taxpayers secure the region, making it “our gulf.”

Greene shared the proposal text on social media, calling for federal agencies to adopt the name change.

She linked the renaming effort to combatting Mexican cartel activity in the Gulf.

Trump supported the name change in a 2024 executive order, but there has been no indication of international adoption, including by the UK.

      Soon! By immediately relaxing regulation and doing everything to make sure bird flu happens, eggs are about to get cheaper

      As funny as that is, it’s actually someone that is going to set Trump up for undeserved success.

      When the shortage subsides, the egg prices will go down, even if nothing else does. He’ll gloat so much…

        If bird flu is contained then the shortages will stop. Or we could defund everything, let it run wild until it jumps to humans, and make covid look like a wet fart. Which direction are we running in?

      No, they have to focus on important stuff first. Like reassigning genders, renaming a body of water. You know, important things that actually help people.

      It’s leveled out up here in Canada. There was actually a pretty dramatic new affordability section in the store when I was last in it.

        It’ll go down in price once Canada stops sending their eggs to the US. Hoping electricity also goes down to when that’s cut
