Showing as a visitor on the primary episode of The Project with Antonia Hylton on Saturday, MS NOW contributor Eddie Glaude declared that Vice President J.D. Vance could also be “uninterested in being referred to as racist,” however that he’s “not uninterested in being racist.” He additionally tacitly admitted that the liberal agenda on how you can train historical past is to impress “judgment” in opposition to whites.
Hylton devoted a section to studies that the Trump administration plans to return a Accomplice monument to Arlington Nationwide Cemetery subsequent yr. After noting {that a} disclaimer arguing in opposition to the Misplaced Trigger was lately faraway from the place the monument was, she went to Glaude and requested why he believed the phrases had been scrubbed.
On the liberal information community that has continuously accused the Trump administration of selling white nationalism, the liberal professor started by claiming that not sufficient time has been spent accusing the Trump administration of selling white nationalism:
I believe a part of what we have not finished sufficient is to dissect, to deconstruct the ideology that informs Trumpism — that MAGA is not reducible to the character of Donald Trump, regardless that it is the engine — that there’s a type of ideological equipment with a bunch of assumptions about who possesses the nation, about racial hierarchy. One option to describe it’s as a white nationalist mission.
Pushing paranoia over “racial hierarchy” is Glaude’s modus operandi. He then added:
And that includes, partly, a selected understanding of the historical past of the nation in so some ways, I believe, and that is actually essential for what they’re making an attempt to do — that could be a type of cultivated ignorance to be able to justify its coverage selections, is to, in so some ways, bracket historical past such that historical past doesn’t present sources for judgment. They need to be white with out judgment. And historical past, in fact, provides a lot to be able to account for our present second.
Hylton adopted up by taking part in a clip of Vice President Vance talking on the latest Republican conference in Texas. Here is Vance speaking about Biden’s mass importation of immigrants: “We’re uninterested in seeing the cartels and the criminals given free rein over our nice nation, and we had been uninterested in being referred to as racists for noticing that our nation was changing into dirtier and poorer and fewer protected and fewer affluent.”
Glaude responded:
He is uninterested in being referred to as a racist — he isn’t essentially uninterested in being racist, as a result of while you flesh out that sentence, he is trafficking in all kinds of stereotypes. And keep in mind, this is similar man on July 5, 2025, mentioned that America cannot be simply merely a creedal nation. “We’re greater than an thought.” And in so some ways, he invoked the language of blood and soil in that second.
He then concluded by apparently reacting to Trump saying the nation turned “dirtier” with all of the immigrants pouring in.
And so he is buying and selling in a set of tropes actually designed to push the concept that we’re infestations, that we sully the physique politic, and that his activity is in so some ways — their activity, proper, is to make clear it, is to cleanse it. And we’re seeing that with immigration coverage — we’re seeing that with voting coverage — we’re seeing that with coverage usually.

MS NOW’s The Project
September 12, 2026
EDDIE GLAUDE: Effectively, I imply, I believe a part of what we have not finished sufficient is to dissect, to deconstruct the ideology that informs Trumpism — that MAGA is not reducible to the character of Donald Trump, regardless that it is the engine — that there’s a type of ideological equipment with a bunch of assumptions about who possesses the nation, about racial hierarchy.
One option to describe it’s as a white nationalist mission, and that includes, partly, a selected understanding of the historical past of the nation in so some ways, I believe, and that is actually essential for what they’re making an attempt to do — that could be a type of cultivated ignorance to be able to justify its coverage selections, is to, in so some ways, bracket historical past such that historical past doesn’t present sources for judgment. They need to be white with out judgment. And historical past, in fact, provides a lot to be able to account for our present second.
ANTONIA HYLTON: That component of — of not desirous to must cope with the judgment is so fascinating. And I used to be enthusiastic about it, truly, once I was listening to a number of the speeches coming from Dallas this week throughout “Trumpapalooza.” I need you to take a hearken to one thing that the Vice President mentioned there.
VICE PRESIDENT JD VANCE: We’re uninterested in seeing the cartels and the criminals given free reign over our nice nation, and we had been uninterested in being referred to as racists for noticing that our nation was changing into dirtier and poorer and fewer protected and fewer affluent.
HYLTON: So that’s the Vice President of america saying, “We had been uninterested in being referred to as racist for noticing that our nation was changing into dirtier and poorer and fewer protected and fewer affluent.”
GLAUDE: He is uninterested in being referred to as a racist — he isn’t essentially uninterested in being racist as a result of while you flesh out that sentence, he is trafficking in all kinds of stereotypes. And keep in mind, this is similar man on July 5, 2025, mentioned that America cannot be simply merely a creedal nation. “We’re greater than an thought.”
And in so some ways, he invoked the the, the, the language of blood and soil in that second. And so he is buying and selling in a set of tropes actually designed to push the concept that we’re infestations, that we sully the physique politic, and that his activity is in so some ways — their activity, proper, is to make clear, it’s to cleanse it. And we’re seeing that with immigration coverage — we’re seeing that with voting coverage — we’re seeing that with coverage usually.
