Things are so fucked up in the US I thought this was about the state for a minute.

Same here. The headline could be describing Florida or Texas.

They really need to rename one of the Georgias to cut down on ambiguity. Perhaps they should flip a coin to decide which one gets to keep the name.

The Georgian Republic is also called Sakartwelo. The US-state named after some 18th century British monarch is hopefully not renamed to Savannah or something, creating more confusion...
