A few days later, on February 25, 2026, he commented on preparations for a national political event by stating: “Getting ready for the state of the union https://t.co/fNlyl7LXLB”
Later that same day, he published another post containing only a link: “https://t.co/vngIfi8kCS”
The Adams–Onís Treaty of 1819 resulted in Spain transferring control of Florida to the United States. This agreement marked an important step in U.S. territorial expansion and clarified boundaries between Spanish territories and those of the United States.
