How to make more Charlie Kirks: Inside TPUSA's gap-year alternative to the 'college scam'

For decades, aspiring young Americans have followed a predictable formula: high school, college, debt. But at the Turning Point USA prep year program, 18-year-old students are encouraged to pause, learn how to think, and discover their true purpose before committing to that considerable investment.

Dr. David Arnott, dean of the program, reflects on why the biggest problem in America isn't merely economics: it's character and wisdom. The mission is bold: use a year of classical, liberal arts education to mold the next generation of America's conservative leaders.

CHARLIE KIRK'S 10 MOST POWERFUL MOMENTS FROM COLLEGE CAMPUSES TO THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION

Dr. Arnott sat down with Fox News at FreedomFest in Las Vegas to discuss how TPUSA's prep year is fulfilling Charlie Kirk's educational vision for America's youth:

"It is an ‘education about economics’ problem. I started my lecture here yesterday at FreedomFest asking the question, ‘why do we keep falling for socialism?’ And I tried to answer that question. And that's what I've been studying over the last 12 years as a Christian economist. 

"How do we distribute goods in a fallen world? And so, I was asked by the people at Turning Point USA to be their dean of the prep year program in Fort Worth. Charlie Kirk's first book in 2022 was called ‘The College Scam.’ In 2026, he implemented his idea for education. 

"On Sept. 2, the first class met in Fort Worth. He was assassinated eight days later on Sept. 10. What we're trying to do at prep year is to implement Charlie Kirk's idea for education."

Yet, Dr. Arnott emphasizes that the purpose of prep year is not to dissuade young people from pursuing a college education, but to ensure that they are prepared to do so if they make that choice.

"We're having this interview at FreedomFest. So I think people should have the freedom… they should have the freedom to go to college. They should have the freedom to go into the trades. The problem is the government puts their thumb on the scale by supporting the price of college and, of course, forgiving the debt, which they shouldn't do anyway. If the government would just leave it alone, we'd be happy."

TPUSA's prep year program recently graduated its first class.

"We just dismissed our first class of 34, our inaugural class of prep year. It started Sept. 2, 2025, and ended May 22, 2026. Thirty-four students, about a third will be in college this fall. About a third will go into the trades. I just filled out an application the other day for one of the students to get a Mike Rowe scholarship. And about a third will go on to other things that we don't know yet. 

"We are trying to implement what Charlie Kirk wanted. Which is the economic freedom to do with your life as you wish."

The launch of the program was immediately prior to Kirk's tragic assassination on the campus of Utah State University.

"He started [the program] on Sept. 2, just eight days before he was assassinated, and so Charlie Kirk's ideas are really old ideas… they're not new, and so they encompass these things: Christian, liberal arts, classical and a Socratic teaching method. So that's what we do. We'll take in 35 to 50, maybe as many as 80 students in Elgin, Illinois, and Fort Worth this fall. They'll be with us for nine months and we'll teach them those four ways of teaching.

"We'll teach them the disciplines of the Great Book, which is the Bible, of course, great books by people like Dante and Virgil and Homer. We'll teach also how to get along in life, meaning how do you prepare yourself for life. And by the way… that's why we call it prep year. We're actually in the gap year industry. We take in 18-year-olds who have just graduated from high school. But we call it prep year because we are preparing them for life, more than just that education. 

CHARLIE KIRK SAYS 'UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE SHOULD A MAN EVER LET A WOMAN PAY FOR A DATE'

"And the real secret sauce that I can't explain to you because it's so hard to explain is the effect of being with 35 to 50 other committed Christian conservative 18-year-olds who are highly intelligent. The way in which they learn from each other and gain from each other is just spectacular."

As AI radically transforms education, learning, and the very face of knowledge itself, Arnott emphasizes that the program seeks to instill wisdom, not merely mastery of academic subjects:

"AI can't teach character, and that's what we teach at prep year and that is what Charlie Kirk wanted us to teach. He realized that there would be something coming along like AI that would answer all the technical questions of life, but it won't answer the important questions of life. 

"Wisdom is what we want these students to have. It's hard to teach wisdom, but that's what we're attempting to do. But as you said, David, that's why the traditional colleges have failed. They can teach people facts. They can't teach them wisdom. 

"If I had one sentence, a mission statement for prep year, it is to make more Charlie Kirks. And so my invitation to 18-year-olds just graduating from high school, you want to be more like Charlie Kirk? Come join us."

Florida sues Netflix, alleges streamer tracked children after promising families privacy

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier sued Netflix on Wednesday, accusing the streaming giant of misleading subscribers by promising an ad-free, privacy-focused service while secretly collecting years of behavioral data — including from children's profiles — to build the advertising business it long insisted it would never create.

The 66-page lawsuit alleges Netflix built its brand by assuring consumers that paying a monthly subscription meant they could avoid the surveillance-driven advertising model used by other major technology companies. Instead, Florida alleges Netflix quietly collected extensive user data before launching its ad-supported platform in November 2022.

"Netflix told Florida families they could pay a monthly fee to escape Big Tech surveillance. That was false," Uthmeier said in a news release announcing the lawsuit. "Netflix collected detailed data on children and families, designed its product to keep kids watching, and then commercialized that information to launch the advertising business it promised never to build. Parents, not corporate executives, direct the upbringing of their children. Netflix should expect to be held accountable."

The complaint points to repeated public statements from Netflix executives who touted the company as different from advertising-supported competitors. Among them, the lawsuit cites former CEO Reed Hastings, who said during a 2020 earnings call that Netflix was "not integrating everybody's data," adding, "We don't collect anything," and describing the streaming service as "the safe respite" from companies that exploit users through advertising.

WASHINGTON POST FACES CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT ALLEGING 'SURVEILLANCE PRICING' OF SUBSCRIBERS

Florida alleges those assurances were misleading because Netflix built what the lawsuit describes as a massive behavioral-data operation that records how subscribers use the platform. According to the complaint, Netflix tracks billions of user interactions, including what subscribers watch, search for, pause, rewind, skip and abandon, along with information about their devices and locations. The state alleges Netflix uses that information to improve its recommendation systems and support its advertising business.

The lawsuit places particular emphasis on Netflix's Kids Profiles, which the company markets as dedicated spaces designed for children. Florida alleges Netflix encouraged parents to create children's profiles by describing them as "Great for kids" and a child's "own space" while continuing to collect and analyze children's viewing behavior through the same telemetry systems used for adult accounts.

PARENTS PUSH CONGRESS TO ACT ON KIDS' ONLINE SAFETY AFTER JURIES FIND META AND YOUTUBE LIABLE FOR HARM

Florida also accuses Netflix of using so-called "dark patterns" to keep viewers engaged. The complaint alleges autoplay, which is enabled by default on Kids Profiles, is intentionally designed to extend viewing sessions, increase binge watching and generate additional behavioral data, particularly from children.

The state further alleges Netflix expanded into the advertising business it once rejected by allowing advertisers and advertising technology companies to use subscriber data for audience targeting and campaign measurement after launching its ad-supported tier in November 2022.

The lawsuit accuses Netflix of violating the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act and the Florida Digital Bill of Rights. Among other claims, Florida alleges Netflix unlawfully shared sensitive personal data collected from children without obtaining the consent required under state law.

MARYLAND MOVES TO BAN SURVEILLANCE PRICING IN GROCERY STORES

Uthmeier is asking the court to permanently block the alleged practices, order Netflix to delete data the state says was deceptively collected from Floridians, stop using historical subscriber data to support its advertising business, purge behavioral data collected through Kids Profiles, prohibit the use of alleged dark-pattern designs and impose civil penalties authorized under Florida law.

Netflix did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

Mom ‘very invested’ in Lindsay Clancy case hires Casey Anthony attorney after allegedly killing son: docs

A Frankfort, Illinois, mother accused of killing her 2-year-old son had been discussing the high-profile Lindsay Clancy murder trial with friends just hours before the boy was found dead, court documents allege, and has hired one of Casey Anthony's former attorneys to defend her.

Corie A. Walsh, 38, later told officers she killed her son because she believed he was the "devil" and the "anti-Christ," a petition seeking to deny her pretrial release obtained by Fox 32 in Chicago states.

Walsh has been charged with three counts of first-degree murder in the death of her son, Barrett Walsh. The filing mentions her interest in the Clancy case but does not allege that it was connected to Barrett’s death.

ILLINOIS MOTHER CHARGED WITH MURDER IN DEATH OF 2-YEAR-OLD SON IN CASE DRAWING COMPARISONS TO LINDSAY CLANCY

Walsh’s attorney, Andrea Lyon, said she was "psychotic" and rejected any connection between her client’s interest in the Clancy case and the alleged killing.

"They are not correlated at all. It’s just accidental," Lyon said, calling speculation that Walsh’s actions were a copycat crime "baseless and cruel."

Court documents show Frankfort police officers were called to a home in the 22700 block of Brook Stone Court just after 4 p.m. Sept. 1 for a report of an injured child.

Upon arrival, officers found a neighbor performing CPR on Barrett after she reportedly discovered the toddler hanging from a basement rafter with his feet off the ground.

SUBURBAN ILLINOIS BOY DIES IN SUSPECTED DOMESTIC HOMICIDE AS NEIGHBORS FEAR ANOTHER LINDSAY CLANCY CASE

The neighbor brought Barrett down, laid him on the floor and attempted CPR while calling 911, later telling police the boy was cold and had no pulse. Barrett was pronounced dead at the scene, and a preliminary autopsy determined he died of asphyxia caused by strangulation, according to the filing.

Walsh’s three other children were unharmed, including an infant who was in the house at the time and two school-aged children who returned home around the time Barrett was found. Her husband was traveling out of state when the incident occurred and flew home that evening.

While officers were at the house, they were directed to an upstairs master bathroom where Walsh was reportedly trying to harm herself.

LINDSAY CLANCY MISTRIAL DECLARED AFTER JURY DEADLOCKS IN KILLINGS OF HER THREE CHILDREN

The petition states Walsh was lying fully dressed in a bathtub surrounded by bloody water while a neighbor held a towel against her left inner thigh. The neighbor told investigators she had disarmed Walsh of a knife and thrown it into a sink.

Police recovered the knife into evidence while documenting cuts on Walsh’s wrists and thighs, court documents state.

The neighbor told investigators that Walsh asked why she had taken the knife from her because she was trying to kill herself. Walsh then said "Bear" was in the basement – referencing a known nickname for Barrett, the petition notes.

While hospitalized, Walsh made additional statements to investigators describing how she killed the toddler, which prosecutors noted were consistent with the physical evidence.

Witnesses told investigators Walsh had recently become "very invested" in the Clancy murder trial, which involved a Massachusetts mother accused of killing her three children.

Walsh allegedly discussed the Clancy case in a group text message with friends as recently as 12:30 p.m. Sept. 1 – roughly three and a half hours before Barrett was found. Her cellphone was recovered from the bathroom, and forensic analysis of the device was ongoing as of Sept. 3.

SEND US A TIP

Prosecutors are asking a judge to deny Walsh pretrial release, arguing that she poses a real and present threat to her husband and her three surviving children.

Walsh faces three counts of first-degree murder, with prosecutors outlining different legal theories regarding her intent. Because Barrett was 2 years old, a conviction carries a mandatory sentence of 60 to 100 years in prison without the possibility of early release.

Walsh remains hospitalized at Silver Cross Hospital and is expected to be transferred to the Will County Adult Detention Facility once medically released.

ACCUSED NC KILLER MOM PLANS INSANITY DEFENSE — AS RETIRED JUDGE SAYS MORE MAY FOLLOW LINDSAY CLANCY STRATEGY

Walsh’s defense team includes attorney Lyon, who previously represented Anthony. In 2011, Anthony was acquitted in the death of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee, whose death remains unsolved. 

A jury found Anthony guilty of lying to law enforcement but not guilty of first-degree murder, aggravated manslaughter or aggravated child abuse.

The Will County State’s Attorney’s Office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

At a detention hearing Tuesday, a judge denied Walsh’s request for pretrial release to a locked hospital setting. Lyon said the defense was disappointed but would continue investigating the case while Walsh recovers from her wounds.

LISTEN TO THE NEW 'CRIME & JUSTICE WITH DONNA ROTUNNO' PODCAST

Lyon said the defense will argue that Walsh was psychotic and that the charges do not amount to first-degree murder.

"She was psychotic. And this is not a first-degree murder," she told reporters.

The defense may seek pretrial release again, Lyon said.

Indiana farm vows to ‘absolutely’ do Charlie Kirk corn maze again despite wave of backlash

An Indiana family farm facing backlash over a massive corn maze honoring Charlie Kirk says it has no regrets about the tribute and would "absolutely" do it again, telling Fox News Digital that critics began hammering the business with one-star reviews almost immediately after the design was unveiled.

Jeremy Goebel, a manager at family-owned Global Farms, said the farm never intended for the maze to be divisive, but wanted to remember Kirk and his advocacy for open debate and free speech.

"Absolutely, we would absolutely do it again," Goebel said. "And although, you know, this is just pushback and negative commentary on us, I don't really feel like it's directed at us. I mean, sure, people are saying. It's about us, but it's really about Charlie. They have the issue with what he stood for."

HOW CHARLIE KIRK INSPIRED HIS MENTOR'S FIGHT TO DEFEND REALITY

The Turning Point USA was assassinated Sept. 10, 2025, while speaking at Utah Valley University during his "American Comeback Tour."

Goebel said the backlash began the same day the farm announced the maze, with some people, including previous customers, leaving one-star reviews because they opposed the tribute.

"Unfortunately, the first day that we had announced it, people began giving us one-star reviews, even some previous customers, because they posted their photos with their one-star review, simply because they disagreed with the corn maze," Goebel said. "And so we got a message from Google saying that someone had said that we were doing deceptive practices, and so they closed the profile, at least temporarily until we have a chance to appeal it."

For Goebel, the backlash has been hard to understand.

HE FLED COMMUNISM. NOW THIS CALIFORNIA MAYOR IS HONORING CHARLIE KIRK AND REFUSING TO BACK DOWN

"I just think it's very hard to wrap my mind around the fact that there's been so much hate over this, we were just trying to remember a man who lost his life promoting freedom of speech," Goebel said. "I know not everybody agrees with him, and I'm not saying that we agreed with everything, and I'm not saying that we disagreed with everything, but, we just wanted to remember someone who lost their life for the cause of free speech and to get people educated."

But the response has not been all negative, Goebel said.

ERIKA KIRK URGES CONSERVATIVE STUDENTS NOT TO BACK DOWN IN FIRST SCHOOL YEAR SINCE CHARLIE'S ASSASSINATION

"We've received a lot of backlash over the last few days, but especially that first day, the last 24 hours, I would say the majority is positive, actually," Goebel said. "Actually, I've heard from people all over the world, from Cape Town, South Africa, and even Australia, actually, in support of it. So I think it was never intended to be divisive. It was only just to remember Charlie, because obviously he lost his life."

He said the country would do better to listen more to each other.

"I think part of what makes America great is that we can challenge each other’s ideas and disagree," Goebel told Fox News Digital. "No one side has all the answers, and I think a lot of our best ideas and progress come from people with different perspectives pushing each other to think differently. We probably accomplish more as a society when we’re willing to listen to each other instead of just assuming the other side is wrong."

Fox News Digital reached out to Google for comment.

Olivia Dunne pours beers like a patriot while her LSU tigers run up the score, Gator Bait & Lane's subtle shot

'Nightcaps' is a daily column that catches you up on the biggest sports, news and culture stories you may have missed while pretending to do work at your desk. It runs Monday–Friday on OutKick.com.

"The Week 1 college football schedule stinks, the NCAA needs to try a little harder next time!"

Idiot. Goodness, I was an IDIOT Friday. That was my big gripe going into this glorious first weekend of college football.

The schedule wasn't great. On paper, it wasn't.

CLOCK CONTROVERSY ALLOWS MICHIGAN WOLVERINES TO AVOID MASSIVE UPSET AGAINST WESTERN MICHIGAN

Of course, college football games are played on the field, and they never, ever disappoint. Simpletons like myself look at the paper and see "Western Michigan-Michigan" and think we're in for a snoozer.

And then the Big Ten refs slap you across the face and tell you to SNAP OUT OF IT. What a game! What a weekend. And how about the Ole Miss-Louisville shootout from last night?

How lucky are we? How great is college football. Welcome back, old friend. Let's have a season.

Welcome to a Labor Day Nightcaps — the one where Olivia Dunne serves up booze while Lane Kiffin serves up an a–kicking to Clemson and poor Dabo Swinney.

Lordy, what a mismatch.

What else? I've got the Florida Gators reviving a lib-triggering chant, the field for last night's game in Nashville was disgraceful, and how great is the ESPN broadcasting team of Sean McDonough and Greg McIlroy?

I said it last year, and I'll say it again today: If those two are on a call, expect fireworks. Every time. It never fails.

OK, grab you one final summer beer before the unofficial calendar tuns to fall at 12 a.m., and settle in for a special holiday 'Cap!

Look, it's a holiday. You're all (hopefully) grilling/drinking/both right now, and paying very little attention to this class.

Trust me, I don't take it personally.

Because of that, we're gonna keep it short and simple. We all have things to do and more football to watch. Lord knows I do.

So, let's go ahead and get this Labor Day party started with Olivia Dunne returning to her roots and pouring some ice cold Miller Lites for the Tiger faithful before LSU absolutely annihilated Clemson on Saturday:

OutKick pointed this out months ago, but it's worth repeating today: Miller Lite partnering with Livvy Dunne to promote their beer was the smartest move a beer company has made in quite some time.

Look at the Bud Light fiasco from a few years back. I'm pretty sure Bud is still trying to recover. I'm not sure they ever fully will.

Miller saw that, took some notes, used their brains, and decided to bring in Olivia Dunne this year instead. It worked out perfectly with Lane Kiffin going to LSU, too.

Talk about a 1-2 punch!

Speaking of Lane at LSU ... those with good hearing caught this little remark during his halftime interview of Saturday's blowout win against Clemson:

Amazing.

Look, I'm no longer the biggest Lane Kiffin fan. I used to be, but the way he left Ole Miss last fall really turned me away. At this point, the proof is sort of in the pudding.

He will, inevitably, leave things in terrible shape. Tennessee. USC. Oakland. Ole Miss. There will always be drama.

That being said, he's still a #content machine.

Fair is fair, and that was a funny little one-liner at the end. Sure, it's a little silly given he's the one choosing to create all this NFL-college drama, but if his team's gonna go into the locker room up 31-3 at the half, he's welcome to talk all the crap he'd like.

And I'll eat it up.

OK, let's rapid-fire this quick holiday class into a big Labor Day night. First?

You know who is also a #content machine in the world of college football? New Florida coach Jon Sumrall.

Look at what this DEMON brought back to Ben Hill Griffin Stadium on Saturday:

Goodness, did I miss that song! I grew up going to Gators games during the glory years ('98-2011), and that song was such a banger every time.

For those confused as to why the left deemed it racist ...

The former UF president canceled it back in 2020 because of what he deemed racist imagery and literature from way back in the early 1900s.

That imagery? Black children being used as bait to catch alligators. Yeah, disgusting. Not good.

Also, not at all associated with the Gator Bait chant. Literally no correlation!

"While I know of no evidence of racism associated with our ‘Gator Bait’ cheer at UF sporting events, there is horrific historic racist imagery associated with the phrase," former UF president Kent Fuchs wrote in a letter in June 2020.

Still, he bent the knee because the world went absolutely crazy during that horrible summer, and the Gator Bait chant had been locked away ever since.

Until this past weekend, when the fine folks in Gainesville dusted it off and unleashed it for the first time in six years.

Perfection. Sanity wins again!

Next? How great was Sean McDonough last night? I know Fowler and Herbie get all the shine, but I maintain that any time Sean McDonough is on the call for a college football game, it's destined to be electric:

Sean McDonough, by the way, is the only announcer I can think of who excels in not one, not two, but THREE sports.

He's a great baseball guy. I grew up listening to him call Red Sox games for WEEI, and he still does occasionally during the summer. Amazing.

He's also ESPN's hockey guy, and he nails it.

Obviously, he's done both college and the NFL. Don't forget, he took over for Tirico on Monday Night Football during a pretty down time for ESPN in terms of games. They used to get some pretty awful MNF games. That, of course, changed when Joe Buck and Troy Aikman came in a few years ago.

Weird!

My point? Sean McDonough probably deserves more praise than he gets. I'd put him up there with the best of the best. In terms of college football, there is no one better at the moment.

Frankly, it's not close.

OK, that's it for today. Good start to the week. Let's enjoy some football tonight. And Wednesday. And Thursday. And Friday. And Saturday. And Sunday.

And again, next Monday!

I just hope the fields don't look like this abomination from Tennessee last night:

Where does McDonough rank for you? Email me at Zach.Dean@OutKick.com.

WWE star Cody Rhodes, others hunt for John Cena in Clash of Clans, recalls why legend was booted from group

John Cena’s in-ring career may have come to a close, but WWE star Cody Rhodes is still dealing with him virtually.

Rhodes, Cena and several other WWE stars are a part of a second innovative crossover with Clash of Clans, the beloved mobile game that the "American Nightmare" has been playing for a decade. In this iteration, Rhodes and the rest of the Clash of Clans community are tasked with finding Cena’s base in the game.

COMPLETE PRO WRESTLING COVERAGE ON OUTKICK

The "Search for Cena" is officially on and lasts through Sept. 30.

"We've got millions of players on Clash of Clans globally, global chat being back to millions of players," Rhodes told OutKick Dropkick hours before Sunday Night’s Main Event. "And when I was in a clan, that was how I got in Clash of Clans in the first place — John Cena on the road, all of us finding a game that we wanted to play and could bond over, and it was Clash. He had the O’Leary Klan (OLK) and he was a pretty good clan leader. He was until he wasn't -- real, real, real tyrant behavior, I would say, from the record-breaking John Cena.

"And now we have the opportunity to get our receipt back, all of us, the entire Clash community, because we can get out there, find his base, raid it, get a three-star 100 on it. But probably the most pinch-yourself thing for me, and so much fun stuff happens working at WWE, so many fun moments and crossovers and things that we do, partnerships and things of this nature, to be able to open the game and see the Clash app logo with me against a barbarian, and then to get in there and see a new barbarian skin like the ‘Barbarian King’ skin, this is the second one, and now he's got the shades on and the music has been added. That's a trip."

Rhodes previously told OutKick Dropkick that it was Cena who first got him into Clash of Clans. He was a part of the OLK before the group booted Cena. Rhodes and others then started the Nicky Clan, which still runs to this day.

SIGN UP TO GET THE LATEST SPORTS NEWS

"The American Nightmare" explained that what Cena was doing was akin to going to an NFL game and everyone is only kicking field goals.

"I want to give him his due because he brings us all into the game. He certainly brings us all in. I think he was gemming a great amount — maybe too much gemming going on that not everyone wanted to do that.

"I think he also was notorious for what we'd call the 99% one-star, which is, man, that is not good. That's like going to an NFL football game and them just doing field goals the whole game and nobody actually scoring a touchdown. You got to get the town hall. The fact that you're getting 99% one-stars is bringing the clan down. Very notorious for it, and I'd say pretty hard on the clan in general, but also a good clan leader because he was giving the good troops. He really was. Wasn't as easy back then, but he was giving the good troops."

Cena said in a press release that his rivalry with Rhodes really began in Clash of Clans.

"People think this started in the ring with Cody. It didn’t. It started when I out-raided him in the game and he threw me off his team," Cena said. "Ten years later he still needs help. This time he’s asking millions of you to take on my base. That’s fine. As I have always said - if you want some, come get some."

Rhodes said it’s still a bit surreal to be featured in a game he had been playing for so long.

It’s a little bit different than being in a pro wrestling video game, which most fans expect Rhodes to be in because he’s at the pinnacle of the sport.

Rhodes has his own character as the "Barbarian King," which debuted last year.

"I got a couple of great memories from the fact that I get to do this and the ‘Search for Cena,’ and he's the one who brought us into the game and finding his base. But also, to do the commercial for all this with one of the greatest of all time, that being Shawn Michaels as the wise Clash player, Clash brings us as a group together, and for the guys, some of the OG's, some of the luminaries, some of the legends who don't know Clash," he said.

"Undertaker, for example. I remember texting him right away, ‘Hey, Clash of Clans, Supercell, this amazing company,’ and he's all in on it now, and he's on board, and this is his second time as the ‘Grand Warden.’ So, it's been a really good synergy that I don't think you would have ever expected, right? It doesn't seem like something that would happen. And maybe that's why it's so kind of at a loss for words almost over how cool this collaboration is."

Rhodes is not the only WWE star featured in the game.

Hero characters include Alexa Bliss as "Archer Queen," The Undertaker as "Grand Warden," Iyo Sky as "Royal Champion," Jey Uso as "Minion Prince" and Kane as "Dragon Duke."

Clash of Clans has been downloaded more than 2 billion times and is considered one of the best mobile games of all time.

After 'Lake America,' Trump suggests a new name for the state of New Mexico

The White House on Sunday amplified President Donald Trump's call to rebrand New Mexico as "New America," reposting an image from the president's Truth Social account showing the state's name crossed out and replaced with "America."

Trump's original post featured a map of the Southwestern state with the word "Mexico" crossed out in bright red and replaced with "America," effectively depicting it as "New America."

TRUMP RENAMES LAKE ONTARIO ‘LAKE AMERICA’ AMID INTENSIFYING US-CANADA TRADE DISPUTE

The White House later shared the image on its verified X account. Neither post included an explanation or indicated whether it reflected an actual policy proposal.

The post comes just days after Trump signed an executive order renaming Lake Ontario "Lake America" for U.S. federal use. The executive order followed a series of tariff disputes between Washington and Ottawa.

Trump said he directed Interior Secretary Doug Burgum and the department to update the Geographic Names Information System to reflect the name change. Google and Apple later updated their maps for U.S. users to reflect the change.

MAJORITY OF AMERICANS REJECT TRUMP'S RENAMING OF LAKE ONTARIO TO 'LAKE AMERICA,' POLL FINDS

Trump also signed an executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico the "Gulf of America" early in his second term.

Unlike lakes and other geographic features that can be renamed for federal use through executive action, a president cannot unilaterally rename a U.S. state. Trump and the White House have not announced any formal effort to change New Mexico's name.

The name "New Mexico" predates the state by centuries. Spanish explorers began using "Nuevo México" in the late 1500s. The territory kept the name after becoming part of the United States in 1848 and later achieved statehood on Jan. 6, 1912.

The White House and the Office of New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's requests for comment.
