"Arrr! That French parliament scallywag be sayin’ return the Lady Liberty, or ye be hatin’ her mighty fierce!"

Arrr, matey! A scallywag from the French Parliament be shoutin’ for the U.S. to hand back the grand Lady Liberty, like a lost treasure! Aye, they gifted it in the 1880s, but now they be wantin’ their shiny bauble back, as if it be a stolen doubloon!
At a recent parley of his crew, the Place Publique, Glucksmann declared, "O ye Americans who’ve cast yer lot with tyrants and banished the seekers of knowledge, give us back our statue!" He scolded, claimin’ they’ve no respect for the magnificent gift. "Let her stand tall here in France where she belongs!" he proclaimed, much to the amusement of his mates.
Now, this statue, crafted by the talented French scallywag Auguste Bartholdi, weighs as much as a ship’s anchor and stands as tall as a crow’s nest at 305 feet! A tiny replica be sittin’ on the Seine, a reminder of the friendship shared between our two nations.
Glucksmann, a fierce supporter of the Ukraine, even took a swipe at the former captain of the U.S. ship, Donald Trump, for lettin' loose the best researchers. "If ye fire your brightest minds, then we’ll welcome 'em with open arms!" he declared, like a pirate at a treasure chest. So let the games begin, me hearties! The Statue of Liberty may yet sail back across the waves! Arrr!
