"Immediately after Hitler was appointed Chancellor on Jan 30, 1933, Nazis kick-started the destruction of free press, beginning with expulsion of anyone who did not tout the party-line from journalistic activities." --Analysis of Nazi Propaganda A Behavioral Study K. Narayanaswami #cspan #cspanwj

No organization should change it from the Gulf of Mexico. But if we are going to change the geographical names of places, may I suggest America is now to be known as the 11th province of Canada, and its new name is Peace, The Province of Peace.

Every fycking reporter in that press corps should walk out in solidarity with the AP. There’s no news coming out of that Oval any damn way. They’re telling you what they want you to hear dishonestly & calculated. They need media more than the press need to report from that shithole administration

Ugh,first steps towards state run media. Pretty soon we’ll be seeing only what trump and musk will allow us to see. Gotta keep in touch with international friends so they can tell us what’s being censored from us😔

The goal of Trump & Co is to manipulate (lie about) the news. Next move disallow all truthful media. He wants to cancel everything our Constitution stands for

AP says? Really? Did CNN have a reporter in the room that can confirm the AP journalist was not in the room? Or was the CNN reporter blind?? Is there video to confirm? Does @cnn.com still practice journalism or propaganda? Asking for the American 🇺🇸 people!!!

Drawing a clear line between We The People..78% of the total population that did NOT vote Republican ..and the billionaires who intend to steal taxpayer $ (illegally). Blocking information, blocking 345 million people..hoping we won't notice/ fight.

THIS is how democracy ends with the erosion of the free press. Trump is a wannabe dictator like his buddy, Putin. Musk is a wannabe oligarch like those who are propping up Putin in Russia. The BILLIONAIRES keep taking more & more for THEMSELVES as MAGA leaders point fingers at the Dems to distract.

Since you can't get in, make up stories about whatever event you were barred from attending. Talk about the incredible announcements regarding egg prices, utility costs and the price of gasoline. After all, isn't this why people were able to overlook putting a felon in the White House? 🙄

Share your thoughts: Can you think of other instances in history where governments have tried to influence how places are referred to? What were the outcomes?

You can complain to google and "report" that their information is incorrect by clicking on the three dots after a search for Gulf of Mexico puts up Rump garbage. Good opportunity to divest of all things Google, Meta, and Musk.

Gulf of America only 12 nautical miles - has 2 names, now: "supposed to be deliberative process, not just an executive orde" United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, which says a country's territorial sovereignty only extends 12 nautical miles from its coastline. www.npr.org/2025/02/03/n...

npr.orgWho will call it the Gulf of America? A look at this and other naming disputesGoogle Maps now labels the Gulf of America for U.S. users, and the Gulf of Mexico for those in Mexico. This isn't the first body of water to have different names according to different countries.

It IS the Gulf of Mexico - always has been. AP is one of the leading news people in news - unless you don't know how to read/write. It's actually to the WH's benefit having AP delivering news.Its the felon in WH calling all opposing political views "fake news" thats fukin' up the news worldwide.

It’s “Gulf of Mexico”. It has been for many, many years and will always be Gulf of Mexico. Orange trash and his goons can shove “GOA” up their arse. Rest of the world doesn’t recognise GOA. It’s Gulf of Mexico, plain and simple.

The AF1 pilot should have suggested to Trump while on the way home from the Super Bowl: “Mr President, please be seated in your new ejection pod; when ready say ‘Ok now’… Have a cool landing in our new Gulf of America pool. Enjoy your swim… will pick you up in about 4 years.”

soon? Trump has been attacking the press since before he was first elected. Trump/MAGAs have been calling the true news "fake news" to brainwash their base into not trusting what is real. sad for the nation & BUCKLE UP, America as Trump/MAGAs/Project 2025 types & BILLIONAIRES try to wreak the Govt

JOIN THE MOVEMENT! STAND UP! SPEAK OUT! We do NOT have a king, you want new legislation craft new legislation...you do NOT get to rule by decree! #fiftyfiftyone #shutdown315 #weAreUnited #Generalstrike

Trump wants to *change the Gulf of Mexico*… yeah, you read that right. 🌊💀 Meanwhile, have you checked the price of eggs lately? 🥚💸 Maybe we should focus on the *real* issues—you know, the ones he ran on. 🤡🔥 Stay woke #Trump #GulfOfMexico #EggPrices #Priorities #StayWoke #Politics #YouKnowTheThing

Felon trump's administration is so stupid. Hung up on BS, while screwing over the American people. Where are the lower grocery and housing prices?

troll them right back. show up every dau wearing a gulf of Mexico hat and tshirt. don't waste your time being the "adult" or "bigger man", rub their own spectacle right back in their damn faces. don't heed a bully, just punch them square and walk over them.

I am so very tired of this child. We’ve experienced more bullshit in the past 3 weeks than we did during his four years. I feel certain there will be another insurrection, by citizens of all races and politics against him and his crew, and there will not be a damn thing he will be able to do.
