We could offer him California instead, but he has to take Gavin Newsome also.

Why not ol' Sarah? Actually, that trade might be worth considering! Her relocation would be relatively cheap and easy for the taxpayers. She can already see Putin's place from her house, right? Maybe it was from her front porch...I forget. One thousand pardons.

Nah, don't do that. At least give it to Canada so it stays in the North American family.

For their part, Alaska Natives claimed that they still had title to the territory as its original inhabitants and having not lost the land in war or ceded it to any country – including the U.S., which technically didn’t buy it from the Russians but bought the right to negotiate with the indigenous populations. Still, Natives were denied U.S. citizenship until 1924, when the Indian Citizenship Act was passed.

Which is one reason Snopes has already rated this Putin/Alaska rumor as "false"
