President Donald Trump posts a map on social media showing large parts of North America, along with Greenland and Iceland, covered by a U.S. flag. The image also includes territories spanning into Central America and parts of the Caribbean. The post appears on Monday and comes after Trump has previously raised ideas about taking or expanding U.S. control over territory outside current U.S. borders.
The outlets describe the same core element: Trump shares the flag-covered map on Truth Social. The Hill reports that the map shows an American flag emblazoned over most of North America and includes Iceland and Caribbean islands. The Daily Signal similarly reports that Canada, Mexico, Central America, Greenland, Iceland, and parts of the Caribbean are depicted as part of the United States. Both frame the post as part of a broader pattern of Trump’s comments and prior public pushes related to territorial claims. Neither outlet indicates any formal policy change or government action tied directly to the post.
