For nearly 140 years, she has stood in New York Harbor, torch held high, a symbol of freedom and hope. But last week, a French politician made headlines by saying they want her back. "Give us back the Statue of Liberty," Raphaël Glucksmann declared, arguing that America has abandoned the values she used to represent. He even quoted the famous poem inscribed at her base: "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free."But here’s the problem—those words were never part of the statue’s original meaning. When France gifted the statue to the United States in 1886, she was named Liberty Enlightening the World. She was not meant to symbolize mass migration, but the ideals of ordered liberty—the kind of liberty that could only be sustained by a virtuous and free people. She was a monument to the political and spiritual inheritance of Christendom, a testament to the unique civilization that made true freedom possible.Yet over time, that meaning was rewritten. Lady Liberty was no longer a symbol of Christian self-government, but of open borders and a rootless, multicultural myth. So what happens when a nation forgets what made it free in the first place? Today, we’re setting the record straight.This episode is brought to you by our premier sponsors, Armored Republic and Reece Fund, as well as our Patreon members and donors.

How did we get here? How did a monument to liberty itself become a rallying cry for open borders? And more importantly—what does this shift reveal about the way modern America understands itself? Today, we’re going back to the real history, breaking down the myth, and pointing toward a better vision.Let’s get into it.*MINISTRY SPONSORS:*ENTER TO WIN 2 FREE TICKETS TO OUR APRIL 2025 CONFERENCE BY Signing Up For Private Family Bankings Email List1.
