TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): As an American let me explain our system to you I know that you're here illegally.

[...]

CESAR VARGAS: As a nation, we have matured from only free, land-owner white people --

CARLSON: Don't hit me with the race crap, okay?

[CROSSTALK]

As a citizen of a country controlled by the conquistadors don't lecture me about that stuff.

[...]

CARLSON: I don't know what chutzpah is in Spanish, but for you sitting here illegally and we're not reporting you or having you like, taken out by force.

VARGAS: And you know what I got a green card now.

CARLSON: Oh, you do have a green card.

VARGAS: Yeah.

[...]

We're all Americans.

CARLSON: No you're not actually, you're a Mexican citizen I believe.

VARGAS: A Mexican-American and that's the pride of this great nation.

CARLSON: You know what you are, you're bold.
