Maybe a dozen of them will be required. And when our country has rid itself of this scumbag and his minions, the reciprocal agreement requires that Lady Liberty be returned to us and we will return the guillotines.
Let’s be clear: respect is not measured by how many dictators send you flattering letters or how many times you can bully allies into silence. True respect comes from moral leadership, steadfast principles, and an unwavering commitment to democracy. #BarkingJusticeMusic
I remember an episode of the X Files from the 90s where the deep informant told Mulder the statue of liberty is on vacation and that if your not a citizen you're not welcome. Seems to have been a problem for a while now.
Canadians have proposed nn 8 storey-high statue called "Mother Canada" that would look out across the Atlantic toward Europe where tens of thousands of Canadians soldiers died in battle in WWI and WWII.
Lady Liberty would be a fitting alternative. Bring her to Canada! 🇨🇦
Especially when the current people in charge think
"Give us your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to be free" so we can unleash our sadistic policies on them.
Same here. What a sad day. IMO, I put most of the blame on the republicans of the Supreme Court. So many of their decisions led us to this sad point in our nations history.
I don't agree with him. Over 75 million Americans voted for the nice lady who loved America and her allies. I believe the population of all of France is a little under that. The Statue of Liberty is for us. Unless his wish is to condemn us along with Musk?
America, clearly, does not stand for immigrants coming to make our country more interested and better. America hates immigrants for some reason. No, I can't blame him. It's more like "give me your tired and poor" so Trump can torture them. That's false advertising.
I understand how the French feel, but as a native New Yorker/Jerseyite this would be unfair to us. Most of us didn't vote for the traitorous rapist! This would hurt us and we are suffering enough because of him.
It’s getting to the point where nobody else in the world care which Americans voted for him. You’re responsible for your fellow citizens, not the rest of us. Don’t whine it’s not fair to us . We’re stuck with him now to, is that fair while you whine and do a whole lot of nothing
Since this is no longer true, perrhaps we should give it back:
"Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, ...
"... and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
'Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!' cries she
With silent lips. ...
"... 'Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!' "
Yeah... no, but dont take his words as anything representative. Keep tje statue as a reminder and kick that orange dude en dehors de la Maison Blanche aussi vite que possible.
Definitely cannot blame him. Better to return it before the fascists destroy it as a symbol of immigrant "terrorists". (This feels oddly like some foreboding).
It's only a matter of time before someone in the Trump administration takes steps to remove the bronze plaque inside the statue, the one with with Emma Lazarus' poem--"From her beacon-hand glow world-wide welcome," "Give me your tired, your poor"--as promoting inclusion.
This is a gesture, as is the bill for France supporting the states, during the war of independence! However, it's a point well made. tRump likes to remind everyone about gratitude and respect. He should read the history books more often than Mien Kampf.
If a States seceded they'd need to assimilate & become Canadian. Which means serious gun laws, guns are a privilege not a right in Canada. I'm guessing that would get a lot of MAGAt Trash to leave.
The States could also become independent Nations. Then possibly form an EU style Union with us.
But NYS has a lot of Guns pouring in from other states. We have a problem here in Canada with illegal guns being smuggled in from the US but not like the States that try to have smart Gun laws.
Although, something like 98% of all Canadian Gun crime is from illegal US Gun. The rest is stolen Guns.
While I like that the states I am in the most are now Canada, my semi annual trips to WV for bike packing would be a pain in the ass. Oh well, I’d just have to go much further north and pack some extra heat for the grizzlies.
I wish the Governors of the solid blue states (not the blues on these maps, the solid liberal states) would as a group consider this and discuss with Canada. For real. We won't come empty-handed, we'd bring our brains and economic strength with us.
Ps, I know the Blue states are serious power houses. The MAGAt states can't operate with out funding from the Blue states.
Historically, i think Canada would have joined the Northern States back in the day if the South was it's own nation. The USA has been trying to get Canada forever.
I know a prominent New York State Senator tabled a bill or motion for New York to Secede and Join Canada. While suggesting a number of New England states do the same. It was pretty recently so not sure how that turned out.
For it to come true each State would need to Secede from the US on it's own. The bottom 2 maps I made are based on the 2020 Federal election. So it's a rough idea not backed up by any real Data. This was always a joke until recently for me. I highly doubt anyone of this will happen.
I think that he's right in this request. Lady Liberty is shedding tears at this moment, as are many patriotic citizens of this country. Such a sad time in history.
Given this administration's take on immigration, I've been expecting them to take down Lady Liberty and put up a Golden (well, orange) Idol since day 1.
Sure, we could pull off that Ghost Busters II thing, bring her to life and have her march across the Atlantic while we play 🎶Your love keeps lifting me higher…🎶
No I can’t. It’s truly embarrassing to be “American “ aka from the United States, even with that claim of being “Americans” as if South Americans and Central Americans and Canadians are also North Americans , so arrogant and selfish and greedy. That’s the problem with the country, and there is a
Huge difference between the billionaires that support democrats and the billionaires that fund the republicans, the democratic billionaires are more caring and have empathy and compassion and give back, the republican billionaires are greedy and try to oppress and rob cheat and steal. It’s morality
Consciousness and character, all things that are missing from maga Americans and maga republicans the die hard cultists who think that Elon musk and trump robbing them is somehow going to help them, pathetic . And then betraying our Allie’s , that’s disgraceful and shameful and pathetic, no loyalty
Seeing as there is very little liberty and very little freedom left in the USA especially for Immigrants then they do NOT deserve to have this beautiful work of Art. She does NOT belong in a FASCIST Country, it goes against her whole meaning!
Felon 47 is just stupid enough to take them up on the offer. Because he doesn’t understand how things work. I mean Paris already has 2 of the statues so why not the 3rd
I’ve thought the same thing. We’re no longer apparently interested in welcoming the tired, poor, or huddled masses. Dick-for-brains wants to kick them out.
The U.S. didn’t really want it when they got it. It was originally supposed to go to Egypt and they rejected it so the U.S. got it because a private group raised enough money to erect it.
After 56 days in office, it is crystal clear, maga are the most un-American (and gullible) people in the USA. Absolutely shameful & disgusting.
They are only going to get uglier and uglier and more hateful and horrific.
Pick an amendment, 2nd or 25th?

But America always has had a "what's mine is mine, and what's your's is mine" vibe.
Now that you've got her, you've got to treat her better than that.
I prefer the Statue of Liberty catapult the convicted 🍊💩felon to Russia! If not, hanging is the preferred method for American traitors! 🤬
"Give us your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to be free" so we can unleash our sadistic policies on them.
This country doesn’t deserve it anymore.

I understand why France would want her back.
Or just Secede and Join us🇨🇦.

We’re sick of Trump Regime! 🤬
Or call what's his name, the current Govenor that keeps getting Buddy Buddy with the MAGt trash and Demand he secedes.

Even if you don't join us as new Provinces, we could form a Union like the EU if the States become their own individual Nations.
I will die fighting to save this great nation!
Maybe Trump on a golden toilet is our message to the world anyway

A. We do not deserve her
B. The GOP has been destroying her message for decades.
C. They WILL remove her soon. I know it in my old bones.
They are only going to get uglier and uglier and more hateful and horrific.
