Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker (D) jokingly announced on Friday that the name of Lake Michigan had been changed to Lake Illinois, poking fun at President Donald Trump’s renaming of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. Pritzker said that Illinois was annexing Green Bay, mocking the president’s interest in taking over Greenland. In a video posted to X, Pritzker intoned with faux seriousness, “The world’s finest geographers, experts who study the Earth’s natural environment, have concluded a decades-long council and determined that a Great Lake deserves to be named after a great state. So today, I’m issuing a proclamation declaring that hereinafter, Lake Michigan shall be known as Lake Illinois. The proclamation has been forwarded to Google to ensure the world’s maps reflect this momentous change.” (Credit: Gov. JB Pritzker via Storyful)
