(VitalNews.org) – Globalists think they can force the United States to do their bidding after one French lawmaker made the most unhinged demand.
Specifically, Raphaël Glucksmann has ordered the immediate return of the Statue of Liberty to France.
The leftist politician who co-founded the socialist “Place Publique” movement claims America no longer deserves the iconic symbol of freedom.
Glucksmann launched this attack on the United States while revealing his true agenda: undermining President Donald Trump’s policies.
Glucksmann, a member of the European Parliament, made the outlandish demand that America return Lady Liberty to France during a political rally in Paris.
His comments came as part of a broader anti-Trump tirade that exposes how European socialists are increasingly uncomfortable with the nation’s America First policies.
“We’re going to say to the Americans who have chosen to side with the tyrants, to the Americans who fired researchers for demanding scientific freedom: ‘Give us back the Statue of Liberty,'” Glucksmann declared at the rally.
The 305-foot copper statue, which weighs approximately 450,000 pounds, was gifted to the United States by France in 1886 as a symbol of friendship between the two nations.
It has since become one of America’s most recognized landmarks and a powerful symbol of liberty worldwide.
However, leftist Europeans who do not share America’s commitment to true freedom are seemingly bothered.
Glucksmann’s attack is particularly rich considering France’s own challenges with freedom.
While criticizing America, he conveniently ignores his country’s restrictive speech laws, high taxes, and increasingly radical immigration policies that have transformed parts of Paris into unrecognizable no-go zones.
The timing of this demand is no coincidence. As President Trump implements policies to secure the border and protect American workers, globalists across Europe are panicking.
Glucksmann specifically attacked the president’s immigration policies and cuts to wasteful government research programs that often serve as little more than liberal indoctrination centers.
“We gave it to you as a gift, but apparently you despise it. So it will be just fine here at home,” Glucksmann added.
Glucksmann went even further in his anti-American rhetoric, claiming: “The Trump administration is fully embracing Putin’s strategic and ideological approach. The ambush in the Oval Office was a clear example.”
Meanwhile, European nations like France have made themselves dangerously dependent on Russian energy while failing to meet their NATO defense spending commitments.
The French lawmaker’s comments represent the latest example of how the global elite are increasingly threatened by America’s return to its founding principles.
As President Trump continues to put America first, reactions from those who prefer a subordinate America can be expected.
For now, Lady Liberty will continue to stand tall in New York Harbor as a beacon of the true freedom and independence that makes the nation exceptional.
