I know they’re just saying that as an argument for the stupid ballroom, but I hope they do it.
The statue means nothing anymore. But, destroying it will infuriate a lot of people. Mostly conservatives.

At this point, France wants it back anyway…USA does not represent anymore what the statue meant.

You know, we American have spent TRILLIONS of dollars on „national security“ over my life. It’s the reason we don’t have healthcare.
*How the fuck did all of that effort lead to all of us having no ability to stop this?*

To those that didn’t read the article, this was posed as a hypothetical in court arguing for the construction of the ballroom. It’s still very alarming, but there aren’t any plans to demolish the statue like this article makes it seem.

I wonder why people say it’s a cult?

I know it’s rhetorical but might as well. Only the rich have liberty in the United States. What the statue stands for is no longer relevant in fascist America. Hypothetically, maybe they’d replace it with a confederate general

Magas hate the poem on it too. They’d love to sandblast it off and replace it with „USA! USA! USA!“
They’d gladly destroy it to hurt the rest of us.

> The Statue of Liberty, like the White House, is managed by the National Park Service. Demolishing it would require legislative approval and rigorous public and regulatory review under the National Historic Preservation Act.
So, the DOJ is arguing that Trump can break laws arbitrarily, and no one can stop him except congress by…passing another law? Seriously, fuck these assholes.

Do it! I dare them! I double dog dare them!
Replace it with a trump statue that says
„Bring us your Epstein files, your deplorable masses, your huddled Republicans, yearning to be free to own slaves once again“
Fuck all this all day

This is entirely hypothetical but it showcases how off the rails we are as a country when we all know that FOX viewers would be told how unAmerican the statue is and has become, and needs to be removed. Easily 40% of the country would then be OK with demolishing the Statue of Liberty.

I’ll give Trump this: he is consistent in his treatment of women.

Nixon’s DoJ declared that the president could never be indicted for any crime.
Was it coincidence that the Nixon administration was the most corrupt and criminal administration in US history (until the trump regime)?
Why does this DoJ memo from a criminal administration remain DoJ policy to this day? When criminals are allowed to set the policy of the Department of ‚Justice‘ it destroys the credibility of that organization.
OreoMoo on
Ah, yes. The famous clause in the Constitution that says the president can do whatever the hell he wants. It’s famously the principal the country was founded on… inspired by the stirring words of the Declaration of Monarchical Fealty.
Fuck off, MAGA.

>Why in the world did the Department of Justice just declare that President Donald Trump has the right to demolish the Statue of Liberty?
After he demolished the East Wing, wasn’t there general agreement that trump was the steward of historical buildings and landmarks, and not the owner? He has literally taken the reflection from the reflecting pond. Trump can pretend to „develop“ those properties for only so long before the stink of his fraud and dereliction of duty seeps through his BS.
TheRealBlueJade on
The trump administration needs to be reminded, in no uncertain terms, that they work for us. We, the people, are the ones in charge.

It’s not just this, it’s that there’s no consequence to them. They’ve lost court cases and nothing happens to them. Even if the courts can catch up, why wouldn’t they keep breaking the law?

Of course MAGA hates the Statue of Liberty. It offers sanctuary to those in need.

Fact: SCOTUS declared Donald Trump is allowed to violate laws.
Related fact: Trump has violated more laws than every other U.S. president combined.

The craziest part of this story is that Trump is in the Epstein files multiple times, and they have yet to be fully released.

They truly believe he is all-powerful. Why do people WANT a dictatorship? It’s fucking awful and bizarre.
if you want to live in a dictatorship there are many fine choices you can pick. Go there.
We should employ the whole “This is America. Love it or leave it “ argument ourselves!

This is Miller’s doing. He’s loathed the Statue ever since people kept bringing up to him about the inscription welcoming immigration to the nation.
