POD: Any point after the US claimed Navassa Island in 1857 under the Guano Islands Act in OTL.
I just read an interesting article that included several mentions of Navassa Island and the CIA. Isnโt that a rare DX location? If so, I donโt think I want to go on a DXpedition there any time soon!

Doesn't matter if they agree, we declare it factually so.
If Japan doesn't want to be part of the USA, they must wait in line behind Texas.
Last one standing goes to a slightly more luxurious prison and kept either until the next battle, or until someone commits a worst crime than he did.
Winning country gets the island for a year.
If your record is broken, you get immediate death.
The ship will be transporting a team of Marines to the island to raise the flag atop the historic lighthouse which will continue operating as it once did. In addition to this the Confederate Government is admitting the island as a territory and will be constructing living quarters on the island.
Doesn't matter how. Inefficient, boring, dangerous, etcetera. Just make it hilariously bad.
Here's a super dramatic, hilariously dangerous route that I made over the past few days. Have a laugh guys.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies ๐
It really does, I swear!
