Episode 030: STOLEN LAND - Part True

In this episode of The Jeremiah Gunn Show, Jeremiah tackles the increasingly common claim that modern America sits entirely on “stolen land.” He walks listeners through a historical narrative of New York and early North America, arguing that land ownership has shifted repeatedly among different groups long before the founding of the United States. Using this perspective, he challenges the idea that present-day Americans bear unique responsibility for historical land disputes.

Jeremiah contrasts migration, conquest, purchase, and political change across different eras, from early migrations into North America to European colonial competition and the American Revolution. He argues that history is complex and layered, and that simplified narratives often overlook earlier conflicts, alliances, and transactions.

The conversation then shifts to modern political rhetoric around redistribution, fairness, and collectivism. Jeremiah critiques calls for wealth redistribution and “equity,” questioning whether those advocating these ideas would apply them personally. He uses examples from public figures and historical philosophical arguments to frame a broader discussion about individualism versus collectivism.

The episode closes with a reading contrasting “creator” and “parasite” philosophies, followed by a call for listeners to examine claims critically, question authority, and engage with history in greater depth.

Key Topics Covered:

• The modern “stolen land” narrative and its origins
• Historical land conflicts before and after European settlement
• Migration, conquest, and purchase in early North American history
• New York’s colonial transitions: Indigenous groups, Dutch, and English
• Redistribution, collectivism, and political rhetoric
• Individualism vs. collectivism philosophical framework
• Encouraging listeners to question dominant historical narratives

Takeaway:
This episode challenges simplified historical claims about land ownership and encourages listeners to examine history, fairness, and political ideology through a broader, more complex lens.

Good afternoon, good morning, good evening, whatever it is on planet Earth. We are broadcasting here from the center of the Civil War. More on that later. This program is dedicated to Charlie Kirk. This is the Jeremiah Gunn Show. Thank you for listening. We're going to get to your comments and your questions and concerns. This is the answer, man. This is Dr. No, spelled K-N-O-W. It's time for you to question authority. Ask me anything. In corporate life, I was called a chief problem solver and a professor. And that's what I'll do. I'll profess. I'm a philosopher, prophet, uh fully trained, full of experience in life. I'm your reference desk, help desk. Uh Librarian of life. Dropping my phone as we speak. So I want to talk about By the way, this is the Common Sense Network. Common Sense. That's dedicated to the author of that little book that gave birth to this nation, uh, Thomas Paine. Gave birth to the greatest nation in the history of women. So here's a little important safety tip. Again, thank you. Thank you for listening. And uh send me your comments. Uh yeah, I don't care if you disagree, agree, uh, hate, love. This goes out to you in the middle of this war. This goes out to you as an urgent plea. Uh you can't say I didn't warn you. Uh you can't say nobody told you. This is going to be different than any other podcasts that you've ever heard. Uh, I guarantee it, because I've heard them all. I've uh listened to them all for two score years or more. And um and I and I know what their motivation is. This comes to you in in the name of peace and love and truth. Without truth, no love and peace, no justice. So uh I want to talk today about uh stolen land. Does that ring a bell? Have you heard that uh phrase being thrown around? Stolen land. Stolen land. We're on stolen land. You're on stolen land. Everybody's on stolen land. Uh we're gonna debunk that right now in an easy-to-use, handy format. So let's let's talk about New York for a minute. This is the epicenter of uh a lot of the stolen land stuff, although there's some pop singer that was on the Grammys the other day who was uh gritching about stolen land, and my wife told me she has a $14 million house in Malibu, which I think is named after the Malibu Indians. But anyway, uh so we're all on Stolen Land. Let's start with New York for a minute. Uh because they just elected uh a redistributionist who is going to uh be fair, fair and square and share. Um let's talk about true history, not what you'll learn if you go get a degree in history, not what you'll learn if you watch PBS or which is 67% BS, like CBS. Uh if you watch CBS, you'll see BS. We're gonna even talk about the origin of that term BS and we're gonna correct it for today's modern world. So, uh stolen land. So uh here's what happened. Let's go back all the way back to the history of New York. So what happened was some um native Siberians came here, and they came here uh uh on foot, according to National Geographic Society, uh about 2,000 years ago over the Bering Strait, or they came by boat uh from Asia. Uh everything confirms this. Uh so they walked here or came in a boat, we came in a boat, and then walked around. That's the big difference uh between the two. So uh they came to New York. By the way, one timeout, important safety tip. Uh hopefully you you're still listening. But uh I find that I don't know what my voice sounds like, but I do have I've been told that it's melliferous, mollifalous, morliferous, and I've been told that it's uh monotonous and that uh it may put you to sleep. We don't want that. So uh you know there's a setting on your phone. I use it when I uh listen to books, recorded books. Uh you can speed it up depending on the narrator. So if you would like to speed this up to 1.25, uh 1.5, 2.0, whatever you want, uh uh feel free. That's uh message is brought to you for your convenience and safety and security and enjoyment. All of those. Okay. So uh so back to New York. Some uh a community of uh native Siberians or native Asians uh walked in there uh and uh or came down the coast by boat, uh took over New York. Uh they called it something else, uh which we'll tell you about that later, but uh and then their neighbor community came and took it from them. They stole the land after the uh initial native migrant uh Asians uh came and stole it. Uh so they uh d and then and then another community uh of native Siberians, migrants came and took it from them. Uh none of them bought it from the others. In fact, they they would often take the people as slaves. Uh yeah, that's right, slavery was here before it was here. Uh sorry, don't want to ruin everything for you. But um so they so they came and and preyed on on their uh other communities that were not of their community. And he took in fact uh not one square foot of maybe planet Earth, but surely the United States of America and Canada and was not fought over by somebody long before we got here. Stolen from somebody. Um from thy neighbor. So so then what happened is a community of Dutch people came here with a business goal in mind. Uh they took over they well, they came to this island and they bought it. They s bought it. It was sold, not stole. Sold, not stolen. So they bought it from the uh and and you may have learned this in school, you may have heard it that it was $28 equivalent or something, or some beads or wampum or something. Uh so the Dutch community did that. And then a little while later, the uh English community uh came and uh just stole it. Now this is the first instance where New York was stolen. It was stolen from uh well, it's not the first, the first was when the native Siberians stole it from the God and then each other. So the Dutch came in and uh called it New Amsterdam. By the way, just as an aside, you know, I always wondered why why is it that the teams in New York, the Giants, the Knickerbockers, which is a Dutch name, the the why do these teams wear orange? Why are the Syracuse orange men from Syracuse, New York? What's with the orange? Even the San Francisco Giants, my dad's favorite team, he tried out for them. When they moved to San Francisco, they kept the orange. Well, it it dates back to if you ever watch World Cup or anything like that, you'll see the you'll see the Dutch wearing orange. The flag, the colors, and that flag was prohibited when the Nazis took over. The real Nazis took over uh Holland and we had to liberate it. Um so it was named after William of Orange, so that's why you have all the orange flavor in New Amsterdam. So the English community comes over here and they just flat out steal it from the Dutch. They did steal it. Stolen land. That's the first non-white uh case of of land being stolen. Okay. So uh the another community of English came here because they were kicked out by the rest of their community of English. They call them the pilgrims and puritans. They came here and they uh they wound up kicking out the original English, the uh uh in in the form of a revolution and uh and buying the land from the Indians that were there. That that's in the story in the history of the Mayflower, they actually bought uh they actually bought the the land. And and after they after the English community uh that came here uh uh through persecution and were legitimate immigrants, they came they um when when the native Siberians stopped fighting with them and warring with them. Yeah, there's an interesting story in the uh in the Mayflower. You'll hear about the atrocities committed against the Wapahama Mogog or whatever they were called in in that area of Massachusetts. Uh you know, 47% of our states are named something like that, uh, after Indian tribes. We're gonna talk a lot about native Siberians. It's a fascinating subject to me. I'm uh studied it. Um I'm a real authority on it. I found I've put together resources on it that you just can't find anywhere else. And they're true. They're true history, they're not this uh pandering nonsense. So um So they the the Mayflower in the story of the Mayflower, the the settlers, the legitimate immigrants, uh they were being asked to uh if they wanted to buy all this land from the neighboring tribes of community of native Siberians that were uh immigrants, th migrants that were were uh uh looking to sell their stolen land. And the and they they thought, this is great, this is a real estate boom. And they were buying and buying and buying. And um then one of the guys, one of the pilgrims, had the wherewithal to say, I wonder what they're doing with all this money. All of a sudden they're interested in selling their real estate. Selling, not not stealing, not selling the land that they stole. So what they did was they uh they well, they they looked into it and they found out by putting out some feelers that what they're doing is they're buying guns. They're buying guns so they can kill all these guys they just sold the land to. I know you know, I've seen a lot of bait and switch, I've seen a lot of shady deals in my real estate experience in life. Not a lot, but too many. And uh that isn't one where you sell them the land and then come kill them later. That that was a new one to me. So uh they uh they they come over, they when when when the English community Puritans, uh uh first founders of America, the first settlers from that area, from that community, they uh by the way, I hope I don't drive you nuts using the word community, but it's such a cute, popular word right now. It's just such fun. Uh the my community, your community, your community, my community. We don't have uh a United States community anymore. That's gone. We're we're balkanized past that point. So uh when when we uh finally uh stopped uh fighting against the native Siberian migrants who were trying to kill us uh for the stolen land that they stole, they uh you know the they had uh a couple of ideas, these these tribes that were here, these communities of tribes. Uh you may know that what preceded our revolution was the French and Indian War. It was actually a causal factor to the revolution because of the argument over taxation. Uh the English community over there across the pond wanted us to pay for it. So what the what the native Siberians did in that case, it was called the Seven Years' War or the French and Indian War. Uh some of the tribes sided with the English, some of the s uh tribes sided with the French. Uh, why do you think that is? They had to place their bet on a horse that they thought would win. But it was more uh of the French and the French community and the English community playing one against the other. That's what they did. They played them against each other because why? Because they were already enemies. They were already enemies who had been fighting over the land they stole from each other. More about that later. But um when we kicked out the English, one of the things we did was we uh kind of made good with the Dutch who had the first shot at legitimacy there in New York. Uh we elected uh a Dutch man to the White House. He was uh only number eight, way back, right near the year 1800, on our founding, pretty close. So we uh we elected a Dutchman who spoke Dutch at home, who was the first non-English, you know, Anglo Saxon or whatever, uh in the area. In the White House, uh in the country. So um so the uh so let's talk about let's talk about this idea of uh fair fair uh distribution, redistribution, and so on. So so you know, uh one of the things you'll hear if you go to a University of Destruction or even high school, I saw it on a game show. Uh uh Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader? Turns out this guy was n was not, although I think he either won or came as close as you can to the million bucks. But um he was bashing Columbus just just like a uh just like a parrot. Just like a parrot. You know uh Churchill said when the when the eagles are silent, the parrots begin to jabber. Uh that's that's the problem. That's what we got going on right now. So do we want to be fair? Do we want to be fair and and get things fared up and squared up? Sure. That sounds good. Why don't we do that? So here's what we'll do. We elected uh not we, but uh uh a lot of uh uh low information voters, useful idiots, spoiled brats. The the acronym for them is actually awful. Affluent white urban female leftist. Uh they uh had their way, and they elected a uh communist, uh a Muslim communist. There's a real tight connection between communist, Marxists, tyrants, and uh Islam. And we'll talk about that later, but uh it's undeniable. Uh the stuff going on in Iran right now. Uh you know who put uh the original uh Ayatollah Khomeini in power? It was the uh commies, yep, and the French leftist-leaning commies, and Jimmy Carter, who uh another story for another day. So he created that nightmare, and uh 47 years later, for my dear Persian friends, we are maybe going to help them have a real country like they used to. So let's do this, okay? Uh the this guy, Mom Dummy, who was elected uh mayor of New York and ran as a uh a com a communist uh uh Democrat. Same thing. I I re I repeat myself, as Mark Twain said. So uh he he uh he's got a lot of stolen land in his heritage. He's got a lot of stolen land. I mean, I I think his parents are very wealthy, uh very wealthy. He's a silver spoon nepo baby, whatever. Uh never really did anything with his life except get in here and uh play the play the platitude uh panderer and work his way to the top. Okay. So let's take his mommy and daddy, mom dummy's mommy and daddy's house, because God knows if they're from Pakistan or uh India, whatever they're from, uh whose land they stole over there to be able to get over here and then steal a bunch of land here. Let's take their house away and uh give it to people more deserving. Let's redistribute the wealth. Let's redistribute it, okay? Uh the uh because um you know uh the collectivists like Mom Dummy, they they like to claim uh the people that they claim to revere would uh do that. They'd take the nice big houses and give them out to a bunch of people, make them uh into a uh mini dorm. Uh why not? Uh he might have a governor's mansion on stolen land. I don't know if he moved in or not. You know, Jerry Brown maybe didn't live in it or something as a big virtue signal. But let's take that. Let's take that governor's mansion and let's move in some of these uh unhoused people. No, he's letting them die on the street. You know, he's not sharing the warmth of collectivism. That's what he said in his inaugural. The warmth of collectivism. Look at a satellite photo of uh North Korea someday compared to South Korea, and you'll see what the warmth of collectivism is. So let's take his house and fill it up with these people. They could not die of freezing to death on the street. But you know what? The guy that his hero, his founding fathers, guys like Lenin, they said one death is a tragedy and a million is a statistic. Uh they said if you're gonna make an omelet, you've got to break some eggs. Okay? So collectivists like him, let's let's take it a little step farther. Let's be really fair. Elizabeth Warren became very wealthy. She's the one that's called Focahannis, F-A-U-X, C-A-W, H A-U-N-T-U, United States, Focahannis. Now she scammed her way into uh well, maybe she did this legitimately, but she made a bunch of money flipping houses with her husband, I guess. Then she uh stolen houses, of course. Of course it was all stolen. Uh she uh she she stole people's virtue and honor, uh these native Siberians. She stole their honor by claiming to be one, and Harvard celebrated that they had one on their staff. They had a real genuine native Siberian. And people blew the whistle on that, namely the guy in the White House. He called her out. You know, she's he said he's more Indian than she is. By the way, a quick aside in this Indian idea. I took my kids camping to a uh campground that was a water park and is run by a local band of community of Indians. And uh truck broke down and I had to go to the office and call, and there's an Indian gentleman in there, native migrant Siberian. And he uh you know, I I said to him while I was waiting to uh use the phone or whatever we were talking, I just asked him a little bit. I said, I said, let me ask you a question. Do you want to be called Native American? Or uh do you prefer he said Indian? It didn't take him long at all. He just looked at me and said, Indian. And I said, So this Native Siberian Native American stuff is all just hoo ha for the professor elites, right? And he just kind of shrugged his shoulders. And then I noticed on the wall behind him, I hadn't seen it before, there was a big poster it said Quote, be proud you're an Indian. You might have heard in the news that the Washington Redskins, you know, there's a woman whose grandfather posed for that iconic image that they use on their uniforms and their logo f their team logo, that they're not real happy with this. You know? They're not happy about it. There's a team in Long Island called the Indians, and the tribe is suing because the high school got rid of that name. You know, these are these are always these nanagers, these social engineers, they're always trying to help somebody, but they're only helping themselves. Trevor Burrus, Jr. You know, virtue signaling. So let's take Elizabeth Warren Focahonis. She's got a bunch of houses. Good for her. Good for her. But you know, we paid for those houses. We paid for the streets leading up to them. So you need to get uh you need to get those give those away. Give those all away. Uh including Martha's Vineyard where your uh Obama uh wound up. Yeah. You don't think that land belonged to Native Americans? You don't think that was stolen? Uh Bernie has three houses. He's from Vermont. Why he and Elizabeth Warren Folkohannis are standing behind Mom Dummy in New York City while they're being sworn in? You tell me. I can't figure it out. I I can't figure that out. Except that, you know, the the Democrat Party is synonymous with the uh absolutely synonymous with the Marxist Party, the Socialist Party. So are are they gonna are they gonna do that? Are they are they all of these awful, the asses that they wrote in on, Mom Dummies and the Bernies and the and the uh uh John Carey's and all these other Marxist millionaires? Um are they going to give up their jobs? Are they gonna give up their degrees? You know, why why don't all these uh sh embarrassed white awful why don't they give up their job? I asked one of them once. She was a newspaper writer, uh reporter, and I asked her, I said, what are you waiting for to give your job and your condo and everything you stole back to the blacks or browns or white blacks or white Hispanics that you stole this from? Go ahead. Put up or shut up. But you know, a long time ago, in fact, I didn't know that Karl Marx went back this far, but there was a great, brilliant uh poet. He wrote a book he wrote a poem uh called What is a Communist? What is a communist? One who has yearnings for equal division of unequal earnings. Idler or bungler or both, he is willing to fork out his copper and pocket your shilling. Has anybody heard an apology from uh Focahannis for claiming to be a Native American and getting a job at Harvard and then getting into the Senate based on that? You know, Massachusetts, the ones John Adams, John Hancock, Sam Adams, these are the people that that led the fight against taxation without representation, and now they're electing the taxatutes, you know, the the senator, the pantheon of senators that they have put in office and almost in the White House. Uh it's just real simple, folks. Real simple. Do you go first? Put up or shut the flock up. What is a communist, one who has yearnings for equal division? Yeah, what about the redistribution of wealth, guys? How how come nobody cares about this? What is a communist, one who has yearnings for equal division of unequal earnings, idler or bungler or thief, or both, he is willing to fork out his copper and pocket your shilling. Well, this was probably the best explanation of the two camps of p of communities that are struggling for the wheel of the ship estate. Here it is. I think it's Ayn Rand.

SPEAKER_00 26:31

The creator stands on his own judgment. The parasite follows the opinions of others. The creator thinks. The parasite copies. The creator produces, the parasite loots. The creator's concern is the conquest of nature.

unknown 26:50

The parasite's concern is the conquest of man.

SPEAKER_00 26:53

The creator requires independence in neither sense nor rule. He deals with men by free exchange and voluntary choice. The parasite seeks power. He wants to bind all men together in common action and common slavery. He claims that men is only a tool for the use of others. What's the personal button? What's the personal question? What is it? And as his highest virtue is self-respect. Look at the results. That is what the collectivists are now asking you to destroy as much of the earth has been destroyed.

SPEAKER_01 28:34

Boom. Boom. Well, thank you for listening. Thank you, thank you. And go in peace and love and truth. Please let me know what you think in the comments. Don't matter what it is. Or if you have a question. You have a question, but uh you don't need to doubt any of this stuff. I am the fact checker. Uh as Fauci, the Faucist, the Fascist uh uh famously said, I am the science, but I really truly am the fact checker. Okay. Uh that's all I've done all my whole life is check these facts. So uh until next time, thank you. Thank you for listening, and join us again, please.
