- Trump presented the idea in a Truth Social post on Tuesday and shared a correspondingly labeled map of the lake later that morning.
- A U.S. order could not require other countries to adopt the name; a 1989 agreement emphasizes shared geographic names and retaining established official names.
- Trade talks collapsed on Friday, 50% U.S. tariffs on about $20 billion in Canadian imports took effect the next day, and Canada announced countertariffs of up to 50% starting September 8.
- Ontario Premier Doug Ford called the proposal a lot of rhetoric on Tuesday and highlighted the strong trading ties between Ontario and many U.S. states.
The United States is giving serious consideration to changing the name of Lake Ontario to Lake America in that we don’t expect to be doing much business with Ontario any longer.— Donald Trump; said in a Truth Social post

- President Donald Trump attacked Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) on Friday morning because Cornyn opposes Todd Blanche’s nomination as attorney general over the fund.
- Cornyn lost the Texas Republican primary to Trump-backed Ken Paxton, and Trump threatened on July 30 to withdraw Blanche’s nomination until Cornyn and Thom Tillis leave office.
- An IRS settlement granted Trump and his family immunity from tax audits and created the fund, which could pay Americans deemed to have been unfairly targeted by the government.
- Tillis said later Friday morning on X that he and Cornyn were working with Blanche to end the fund, but his confirmation had stalled because a personal presidential adviser would not amend the settlement.
Perhaps there has never been a group of people treated so badly in our Nation’s history.— Truth Social post by Donald J. Trump, around 7 a.m. on July 31, 2026.
