Read elsewhere of the Russians at one point considering adding isolated territories like Chukotka (or limited to just said territory) to the Alaska Purchase in OTL, what if it actually happened?

Aside from the possibility of a Bering Strait Crossing being a more viable proposition amid US-Soviet tensions due to sharing a common border with each other, what other effects would there be with Chukotka being part of the US (possibly attached to Alaska due to its low population)?

Also would Chukchi jokes become a thing in the US?
