Eric was speaking at the fifth 8 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 3: Annual National Conservatism Conference in Washington, and he posed a question, 9 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 3: The question is what is an American? Would you like 10 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:51,200 Speaker 3: to hear some of his answer, Let's listen. 11 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 4: The Conninal Army soldiers dying of frost fight at Valley Forge. 12 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 4: The Pilgrims struggling to survive in the hard winter soil 13 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 4: of Plymouth. The Pioneers striking out from Missouri for the 14 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 4: wild and dangerous Frontier. The outnumbered Kentucky settlers repelling wave 15 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 4: after wave of Indian war Band attacks from beyond the 16 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 4: stockade walls. All of them will be astonished to hear 17 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 4: that they were only fighting for a proposition. They believed 18 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,760 Speaker 4: they were fighting for a nation, a homeland for themselves 19 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 4: and their descendants. They fought, they bled, they struggled, they died, 20 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 4: for us. They built this country for us. America in 21 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 4: all its glory, is their gift to us, handed down 22 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 4: across the generations. It belongs to us. It's our birthright, 23 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 4: it's our heritage, our destiny. If America is everything and everyone, 24 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 4: then it is nothing and no one at all. When 25 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 4: they tear down our statues and monuments, mock our history 26 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 4: and insult our traditions, they're attacking our future as well 27 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 4: as our past by changing the stories we tell about ourselves. 28 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 4: They believe they can build a new America with the 29 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 4: new myths, new people. But America doesn't belong to them. 30 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,679 Speaker 4: It belongs to us. It's our home. It's a heritage 31 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 4: and trusted to us by our ancestors. It's a way 32 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 4: of life that is ours and only ours. If we disappear, 33 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 4: then America too will cease to exist. 34 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 3: There's a lot there. Let's unpack. Let's discuss. If America 35 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 3: is everything and everyone, then it is nothing at all. 36 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,799 Speaker 3: If you listen to what I just played, Senator Schmidt 37 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 3: kept saying America doesn't belong to them, it belongs to us. 38 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 3: He said, America is a nation and a people with 39 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 3: its own distinct history and heritage. 40 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 1: And interests. 41 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 3: Listen, man, there are some white people, I said, some 42 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 3: white people in this country who believe in white replacement theory. Okay, 43 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,359 Speaker 3: I don't have time to tell you what white replacement 44 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 3: theory is, but it's the claim that white populations are 45 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 3: deliberately being replaced by non white people. Not to mention, 46 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 3: the Census Project back in twenty eighteen projected that white 47 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 3: people will become the minority by twenty forty five. Ever 48 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 3: since that came out, okay, the plan has been in 49 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 3: motion by some white people to ensure that don't happen. 50 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 3: You know, I love putting on my tenfoil pooh shisty mask. Okay, 51 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 3: I love a good conspiracy theory. But when that Census 52 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 3: project came out, and prior to that, getting eight years 53 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 3: of a black president, then they turned around and almost 54 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 3: elected a woman. 55 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: Some white male said no way ho z literally, no. 56 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 3: Jose, no Julio, no one, no Jamal Okay, no, come 57 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 3: on out. Now. I see the headline. I see the 58 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 3: headline going around on Instagram. It says Eric Schmidt says 59 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 3: America is for white people only. 60 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: Now everybody is gonna run with that headline. 61 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 3: And then Eric's gonna go on Fox News and say 62 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 3: the radical left is losing their woke minds. I never 63 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 3: said that, and he's right, he didn't. But here's the thing. 64 00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 3: He never said who us is? And that's the game. Okay, 65 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 3: when a politician leaves us undefined, it's because they know 66 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 3: exactly who they're talking to, and the people he's talking 67 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 3: to they know that messages for them as well. 68 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: And spoiler alert, if you're black, brown. 69 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:19,359 Speaker 3: Legal, immigrant, LGBT, envy, Jewish, Muslim, chances are you not 70 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 3: in that either? 71 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 1: Okay?

With absolutely zero seasoning? 74 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: Okay? 75 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 3: What happened to America being conceived in liberty and dedicated 76 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 3: to the proposition that all men are created equal? 77 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 1: Okay? 78 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 3: What happened to America being inclusive? I mean, it never 79 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 3: really was, but damn it, at least we was fake trying. 80 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: Okay. 81 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 3: Now you got people like Eric Schmidt saying straight up, 82 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 3: this country is for us, and he's saying it over 83 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 3: and over and over again. That's not inclusive, that's exclusive. 84 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 3: And when you're speaking at a national conservatism conference, forgive 85 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 3: us if we think us it's a sounding like shorthand 86 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 3: for white males only. Okay, By the way, no matter 87 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 3: how much you attempt to clarify this, it's gonna sound 88 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 3: like racially coded rhetoric straight out that we want segregation again, 89 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 3: starter pack. Okay, the US you talking about aren't the 90 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 3: ones who make the best tacos on Tuesday and jerk 91 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 3: chicken on Saturday. 92 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: Okay, he's talking about the. 93 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 3: US that seasons food with a pinch of salt and 94 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 3: a pinch of prayer. 95 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: Okay. 96 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 3: If America is everything and everyone is nothing at all, 97 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 3: that's what he said. 98 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: Didn't he say that? Can I hear that Poe again? 99 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 4: They believe they can build a new America with the 100 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 4: new myths, new people. But America doesn't belong to them. 101 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 4: It belongs to us. It's our home. It's a heritage 102 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 4: and trusted to us by our ancestors. It's a way 103 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:48,039 Speaker 4: of life that is ours and only ours. If we disappear, 104 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 4: then America too will cease to exist. 105 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: That's not is that we have the other part?

If America is not everything and everyone, 109 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 3: then it's nothing at all. 110 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: Okay, When do will we. 111 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 3: Realize that we are the good, the bad, and the ugly, Okay. 112 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 1: All wrapped in the one.
