I think they can re-name it on their own government printed maps, but private companies that make maps are not required to change the names. At least that is what I read.

This is the kind of stuff China does all the time.

It's just like the 9 dash line including the South China Sea and Taiwan on every map and globe made in China. Wouldn't surprise me if the US started having the same requirements.

This after the new guy running it, the main author behind project 2025, announced they wouldnt need any funding this quarter because they had 711 M dollars to run the program.

Also, elon retweeted crazypants laura loomer with the personal info of the daughter of the federal judge that signed the order that unfroze the funding.

The new normal down there is nuts.

Trump State Department official has repeatedly called for mass sterilization of ‘low-IQ trash’

Quote:
In May 2024, Beattie wrote on X: “Population control? If only!”

“Higher quality humans are subsidizing the fertility of lower quality humans,” he added, calling it the “Foundational reality of social and political life in the post-war West.”

In October of that year, he responded to a video of people in a neighborhood in Atlanta, saying: “When a population gets feral, a little snip snip keeps things in control. Could offer incentives (Air Jordans, etc.).”

“Where do these population reduction conspiracies come from? All I see is trash multiplying,” he wrote in January 2023.

Beattie previously served as a speechwriter for Trump, but he was fired in 2018 after he spoke at a conference attended by white nationalists. He has backed repressive crime policies and often spoken in support of the Chinese government, according to NOTUS.

Genetically culling the stupid people seems like a great way for the GOP to get re-elected for generations to come!

Reading between the lines there, it sounds like he is talking about a specific demographic, and not one that overwhelmingly voted for the GOP.

Is Red White and Blueland for the USA, or for Russia, or for both?
