French MEP Raphaël Glucksmann responds to the White House press secretary’s attack after he suggested France should reclaim the Statue of Liberty: “Dear Americans, since the White House press secretary is attacking me today, I wanted to tell you this:” 1/n

2/ “Our two peoples are intimately linked by history, by the blood we shed, and by our shared passion for freedom—symbolized by the Statue of Liberty, which France gifted to honor your glorious Revolution.”

3/ “As the press secretary for this shameful administration said: without your nation, France would have ‘spoken German.’ In my case, it goes further: I would simply not be here if Americans hadn’t landed on our beaches in Normandy.”

4/ “Our gratitude to these heroes and their sacrifices is eternal. But the America of these heroes fought against tyrants, it did not flatter them. It was the enemy of fascism, not the friend of Putin.”

5/ “It helped the resistance, not attacked Zelensky. It celebrated science, not fired researchers for using banned words. It welcomed the persecuted, not targeted them. It was far—so far—from what your current president does, says, and embodies.”

6/ “This America—faithful to the words inscribed on the Statue of Liberty, your America—is worth so much more than betrayal. More than the abandonment of Ukraine and Europe. More than xenophobia and obscurantism.”

7/ “We in Europe love this nation to which we owe so much. And we know it will rise again. You will rise again. We are counting on you.”

8/ “And that is why I said in a rally: if your government despises everything the Statue of Liberty symbolizes, we could symbolically reclaim it. It was a wake-up call.”

9/ “No one, of course, will come and steal the Statue of Liberty. The statue is yours. But what it embodies belongs to all of us. And if your government no longer cares for the free world, we will take up the torch here in Europe.”

10/ “Until we meet again in the fight for freedom and dignity, we will be the continuators of our shared history and the protectors of our greatest treasure: not copper and steel, but the freedom it represents.”

Market manipulation: “He made 2.5 million today and he made $900 million. That’s not bad.”

RFK Jr. wants to cut Meals on Wheels to elderly and disabled persons. Another example of this administration’s unthinking cruelty. Pass it on, and possibly they will be embarrassed into continuing the program.

I’m tired. And my patience is gone. Some of y’all spent years shit-talking a President who delivered transformative change for poor, working-class, and underrepresented Americans. Because of Joe and Kamala: Insulin is $35/month; thousands freed from crushing student debt; lead

Maduro was a brutal ruler, it’s true. So is Putin—who Trump supports. So was Bolsonaro, who Trump supports. So was the drug-trafficking former head of Honduras, who Trump just pardoned. So is Nayib Bukele in El Salvador. MBS. Bibi. Stop pretending Trump cares about illegitimacy.

If there's any sermon that should go viral it would be Reverend Kevin Johnson’s of Abyssinian Baptist Church in Harlem. “I don't doubt that Nicolas Maduro is a thug, but so is Trump. I don't doubt that Maduro is a criminal, but so is Trump. I don't doubt that Maduro rigged the
