  1. 0:00Darkness is not an affirmative force.
  2. 0:03It simply reoccupies the space vacated by the light.
  3. 0:07This is the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
  4. 0:11It should be uncomfortable for a believer to live as a hypocrite.
  5. 0:15Delivery people out of the bondage of mainstream media.
  6. 0:18And the philosophies of this world.
  7. 0:20God has called you and me to be his ambassador.
  8. 0:24Even in this dark moment.
  9. 0:26Let's not miss our moment.
  10. 0:29And now, the Hamilton Corner.
  11. 0:33Good evening, everyone.
  12. 0:35Abraham Hamilton III.
  13. 0:36Here I am the host of the Hamilton Corner.
  14. 0:39Welcome to the program.
  15. 0:40I am joined solely by the Real J.
  16. 0:44Mac.
  17. 0:45It's just two on two making it do what to do.
  18. 0:47The Real J.
  19. 0:49Mac produced extraordinaire.
  20. 0:50He is in studio today because he is doing 15 jobs at one time.
  21. 0:55He's the paper boy, the milk man.
  22. 0:59He's running everything.
  23. 1:04We're excited to bring you today's edition of the program.
  24. 1:06A lot of things are transpiring all around the world.
  25. 1:11Iran has launched its largest direct offensive against Israel in history.
  26. 1:16Over 200 missiles, most of which Israel is reporting that they have intercepted.
  27. 1:22But there's a lot of information on that front even learning with affirmative evidence demonstrated
  28. 1:33by the IDF's rear admiral Hagari that Hezbollah was planning a northern incursion into Israel
  29. 1:46to accompany the Hamas-led October 7th massacre complete with all manner of munitions, tunnels,
  30. 1:58the whole bit there, we'll get into that as we go into the program.
  31. 2:05But at this very moment, many of you, if not most of you are making your transition.
  32. 2:09Jeff, you guys are by saying, what up, Mon?
  33. 2:12Jeff, you're doing all the jobs, Mon, every team, V.I.
  34. 2:14I'm on.
  35. 2:17At this very moment, many of you, if not most of you are making your transition from your part
  36. 2:20time job where you generate an income to your full time jobs where you cultivate an outcome.
  37. 2:26And I know that there are some that are podcast listeners and you are catching this in the opposite
  38. 2:32direction. We are grateful for each and every one of you. Thank you for doing that. But as you
  39. 2:37are making your way, most of you to your full time jobs, I want to encourage you to do so with
  40. 2:42intentionality. Understand the primacy that God places on family is vitally important. It's very
  41. 2:52easy to complain about things that are happening in the country while neglecting the fact that all
  42. 2:57All of these people by and large have come from someone's home, generally speaking.
  43. 3:01And I know, I know that your investment in your offspring's life doesn't guarantee the
  44. 3:07outcome of that investment.
  45. 3:08What I am talking about is the investment.
  46. 3:12When we stand before the Lord, one of the things that He's going to query us about is
  47. 3:16how we stewarded and shepherded his heritage.
  48. 3:22That's one of the main things.
  49. 3:25It's amazing that even in the world, people who do not know the Lord when they attempt
  50. 3:32to offer mental health assistance and other things, they always begin to tell me about
  51. 3:37your home life.
  52. 3:39The home life is shaping.
  53. 3:41It's formation, not coincidentally because God designed it to be.
  54. 3:45And the fundamental reality is that discipleship is a constant.
  55. 3:48The thing that is a variable is the quality and the direction of that discipleship.
  56. 3:53This is not an affirmative force, but it reoccupies this base vacated by the light.
  57. 3:58If we don't tell our children who they are, if we don't direct them in the way of the Lord,
  58. 4:02rear them in the air, and the tradition of the Lord, the spirit of the age is waiting
  59. 4:07with bated breath to step into the void created by that negligence.
  60. 4:12That's just a simple reality.
  61. 4:14My prayer, my hope for this audience, with parents, grandparents, great grandparents, families,
  62. 4:19church members that we can reverse that in one by one person by person, heart by heart.
  63. 4:27We will be found, faithful, executing our Lord's commission.
  64. 4:33To the Word of God we go.
  65. 4:35I'm not going to spend a whole lot of time on this today, but I'm planning to do a program
  66. 4:40to present a biblical case for civic engagement.
  67. 4:43And it's not going to be, rah, rah, rah, rah, get out and vote.
  68. 4:47But what I want to see, what I want you to see and what I want to present is the fact that
  69. 4:54God is sovereign over his placement of his people in time and in geographical locations.
  70. 5:02He sovereignly placed me and you who are listening to me in the United States of America with
  71. 5:08citizenship, with the express purpose that we would execute his commission within the context
  72. 5:16He has planted us in the Great Commission. Great Commission's execution is ordained by God to be
  73. 5:23contextualized. He's called for the body of Christ in China to be faithful ambassadors of his there.
  74. 5:30Those in Iran, faithful in Iran, those in Iraq, those in Nigeria, those in Sudan, those in Zimbabwe,
  75. 5:39those in the Ivory Coast, faithful there.
  76. 5:44But we should not eliminate the reality of God's sovereignty and His divine plan
  77. 5:51and His contextualized placement of us where we are to execute His commission.
  78. 5:59We have examples all throughout Scripture.
  79. 6:01I'm going to point to one example today, the Apostle Paul,
  80. 6:04in how the Lord specifically ordained for Him to be His Apostle
  81. 6:10in the first century during the Roman Empire where Rome underwent a massive capital construction
  82. 6:17campaign to create roads for the first time in world history that allowed for the Goye therefore.
  83. 6:25And then one of his apostles was a Jewish rabbinic Pharisee while also a Roman citizen.
  84. 6:33in how his Roman citizenship aided him in his apostleship.
  85. 6:41Philippians 4 is one verse I wanna point to you.
  86. 6:44Philippians 4, one verse.
  87. 6:48This verse in many places can be viewed as a castaway.
  88. 6:55But there's nothing to superfluous in the word of God.
  89. 7:00Every portion of it is intentionally placed for our
  90. 7:05teaching, instruction, learning, repute,
  91. 7:06reprove correction, rebuke, training and righteousness.
  92. 7:12At the conclusion of Paul's epistle to the Philippians,
  93. 7:15you remember this is the first church that was planted
  94. 7:19in the European continent.
  95. 7:23This is where Lydia,
  96. 7:28seller of purple was recorded as coming to faith in Christ.
  97. 7:31As Paul is closing out his letter,
  98. 7:34offering his benedictory remarks.
  99. 7:39We have this morsel of truth that is made available to us.
  100. 7:43Philippians chapter four, verse 22.
  101. 7:46All the saints greet you,
  102. 7:50especially those of Caesar's household.
  103. 7:58That should provoke an inquiry on the reader's part.
  104. 8:01Wait a minute, saints in Caesar's household?
  105. 8:06How were there sent in Caesar's household?
  106. 8:12Take a few steps back.
  107. 8:13You recall toward the end of the book of Acts,
  108. 8:16the Apostle Paul summoned the elders of Ephesus
  109. 8:18to gather to him.
  110. 8:20Some were admonishing him,
  111. 8:24don't go to Jerusalem.
  112. 8:27You go to Jerusalem, you're gonna be arrested.
  113. 8:32Paul responds, why are you guys breaking my heart?
  114. 8:36I'm not only willing to go to Jerusalem
  115. 8:38for the sake of our Lord.
  116. 8:39willing to give my life. If that be what is required. He separates from them. Paul
  117. 8:45starts his process just as it was warned to him he was arrested in Jerusalem. While
  118. 8:55in Jerusalem he knew very well that his arrest was on trumped up charges, false
  119. 9:01charges. He nevertheless recognized that his arrest was a part of God's will for
  120. 9:10him to proclaim the gospel in different venues, aspects, and
  121. 9:18context within the Roman Empire. You'll recall when Paul was
  122. 9:24before a gripper, and Paul was before Festus, and how, you know,
  123. 9:28some of these governors would whisper to each other, this,
  124. 9:30this, this, this man, he's not nothing wrong. If he had not
  125. 9:36appealed to Caesar, we would be forced to release him. But
  126. 9:40But because he's appealed to Caesar, to Caesar he must go.
  127. 9:44He goes from Jerusalem later to Caesarea Philippi, standing trial there, ultimately
  128. 9:50makes his way to Caesar in Rome.
  129. 9:57Paul's appeal to Caesar was based on his Roman citizenship.
  130. 10:05Paul's cognizance of his Roman citizenship
  131. 10:10was a civic contribution to his apostolic mission,
  132. 10:18sent her to his apostolic mission.
  133. 10:24Paul didn't decide when he would be born.
  134. 10:28Paul didn't, on his own, declare himself
  135. 10:31to be a Roman citizen.
  136. 10:33Even when one time one of the people who was
  137. 10:37wanting to put some pain on him,
  138. 10:39said, where did you purchase your citizenship?
  139. 10:41Paul said, well, I didn't purchase my achieve.
  140. 10:43I was born a Roman citizen.
  141. 10:48I was born a Roman citizen.
  142. 10:53His utilization of his civic knowledge
  143. 10:57and his exhaustion of the legal appellate process
  144. 11:02is what availed him of an audience in Caesar's household.
  145. 11:08So when we have at the conclusion of,
  146. 11:10at the end of Paul's Epistle to the Philippians,
  147. 11:13his reference to there being saints, haggioys,
  148. 11:17called out ones among Caesar's household.
  149. 11:21This is a direct byproduct of his application
  150. 11:27of civic understanding and its relationship
  151. 11:34with his call to obey the Lord.
  152. 11:38The believer all over the world, our job number one,
  153. 11:42job number one is executed on our Lord's commission,
  154. 11:46proclamating the gospel, making disciples.
  155. 11:51This is what the believer is called to.
  156. 11:53In the United States of America, we have a unique context where we also have the ability
  157. 12:02to keep the roadways open for that gospel to be proclaimed and disciples to be made.
  158. 12:07Now what invariably occurs with all things, there is a temptation and with human beings
  159. 12:12a tendency to create idols.
  160. 12:16For too long, we've had many who have advocated for civic engagement, but that civic engagement
  161. 12:22was not accompanied by robust disciple making.
  162. 12:28Then there are others who would advocate for disciple making
  163. 12:33and would almost arrogantly and condescendingly say,
  164. 12:38ah, I don't involve myself in the messy business of government.
  165. 12:45Because you're dealing with people,
  166. 12:47yes, government is a messy business.
  167. 12:48Can I tell you what else is messy business?
  168. 12:50Disciples making.
  169. 12:52Have you ever had an okay school,
  170. 12:53you preach the gospel to the dope boy on your corner?
  171. 12:56Have you ever had the circumstance
  172. 12:57will you know the person you preach in the gospel to very likely has murdered in his past.
  173. 13:04Have you had the occasion for proclaiming the gospel to a hormonging man or a woman who's
  174. 13:10lived in the lascivious way?
  175. 13:12Have you had to ever have the circumstance with walking alongside someone who is genuinely
  176. 13:16trying to make a transition but is wrestling through the sanctification process when they
  177. 13:21fall in sin?
  178. 13:25Making disciples is messy work too.
  179. 13:28And this, this ungodly bifurcation that we have, I simply want to say, doesn't come from scripture.
  180. 13:36And I also understand with the unique complexities of the presidential race in our nation currently,
  181. 13:42that people may have some challenges or some difficulties.
  182. 13:45And I understand that.
  183. 13:46And I respect that.
  184. 13:47And I would never want to try to diminish genuine concern on those fronts.
  185. 13:53But the believer has to have the wherewithal to understand the context that we're in, like
  186. 14:01the sons of Issach are understanding the signs of the times and what the people of God are
  187. 14:05to do.
  188. 14:08Paul is one among several examples of his civic knowledge and civic engagement working along
  189. 14:17with his divine mandate as an apostle that was effective in this instance, not only proclaiming
  190. 14:25the Gospel and Colossae, not only in Ephesus, not only in Corinth, but only in to Caesar's
  191. 14:31household.
  192. 14:34our nation are accountable to God for how we respond to His call within the context
  193. 14:40that He's placed us in. It is not the will of God for us to stand idly by as the
  194. 14:49gospel's efficacy is ripped from underneath us with our complicity.
  195. 15:00You can't sit this election out. I know a lot of Christians do. This is true that God is sovereign.
  196. 15:05I tell you that all the time. But they fancy that somehow that is separate from their personal
  197. 15:10responsibility. We are his hands and feet and so that's why we have to do what's right.
  198. 15:16The Bible says to him that Noah could do good and just doesn't do it. To him it is sin.
  199. 15:22Sandy Rios 24-7 with your host Sandy Rios. Listen on the podcast page at aFR.net.
  200. 15:29Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner. Abraham Hamilton the third here.
  201. 15:44as I mentioned in the opening segment today, Iran has launched its largest attack ever
  202. 15:55against Israel with now over 200 missiles reportedly launched into Israel directly from Iran,
  203. 16:06directly from Iran. Most of the missiles landed in, were targeted toward, I should say, central
  204. 16:13in southern Israel, but the IDF is reporting that most of the missiles were intercepted and
  205. 16:19there have been minimal injuries in Israel as a result.
  206. 16:26In addition to what has been launched from Israel, Hezbollah, from Lebanon, has also launched
  207. 16:34with the this being the most recent escalation of tensions in the Middle East.
  208. 16:42So much that can be said, this has followed a slew of what only could be
  209. 16:51described as amazing operations conducted and I guess amazing operation
  210. 16:59that has practically hindered Hezbollah, which is Iran's front group in Lebanon, just as
  211. 17:09Hamas was in Gaza and is in Gaza.
  212. 17:14Iran is paying all these terrorist groups, terrorist organizations to be its proxy in their
  213. 17:21continued warfare against Israel.
  214. 17:22And it seems now that Israel, they've known that for quite some time.
  215. 17:27And they're saying, we don't care what Biden says, we don't care what any of these other
  216. 17:30people say, we're going to deal with this ourselves.
  217. 17:34I shared with you last week about the operation with the pagers and the walkie talkies that
  218. 17:43exploded injuring and killing several Hezbollah terrorists.
  219. 17:49Israel has not claimed responsibility for that publicly, but there are many in the intelligence
  220. 17:53communities around the world that I said that looks like an Israeli operation.
  221. 17:58Then you had Ismail Hania, the head of Hamas, who was taken out in Tehran, in Tehran.
  222. 18:11And then most recently the head of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, was just taken out purportedly
  223. 18:19or reportedly by Israel.
  224. 18:22And so these attacks are in these attacks from Iran today
  225. 18:26and Hezbollah are in response to that.
  226. 18:33You know, Mr. Biden has threatened,
  227. 18:36or if Iran took action directly against Israel,
  228. 18:42they'd be very, America will respond forcefully
  229. 18:46in some way, well, we'll see what said there.
  230. 18:51but listen to and watch this clip on this latest
  231. 18:55missile launch by Iran directly in attack upon Israel. It's clip number one. Go.
  232. 19:03Yeah. So first we heard from actually from US sources that an attack from Iran was imminent.
  233. 19:09And then I would say, well, about 45 minutes ago or so we heard sirens and then I went outside
  234. 19:19here in Jerusalem and it looked like orange shooting stars were falling all over the place.
  235. 19:26I heard some booms. Those orange shooting stars, if you will, were apparently shrapnel from
  236. 19:32missiles that had been shot down. And then that came in two waves. There was sort of a break,
  237. 19:38and then there was a second wave. And what we're hearing is that nearly all of the missiles were
  238. 19:43intercepted that some shrapnel did fall, but no one was seriously injured in this assault.
  239. 19:53Now, you always want to keep in mind the time difference, which is why you saw it. It looked like
  240. 20:00nighttime there. Right now it's about 1 30 in the morning, almost 1 30 in the morning in Israel
  241. 20:06currently. It's important to remember how all of this started. All of this began with Hamas's attack.
  242. 20:18Now, almost a year ago, October 7th, 2023.
  243. 20:26In addition to Iran's attack against Israel,
  244. 20:37IDF spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Haggari
  245. 20:42presented a report today that showed
  246. 20:47with demonstrable evidence.
  247. 20:48And I'll start with the clip, Jeff,
  248. 20:50and then I'm gonna go to the pictures
  249. 20:52that when Hamas, remember Iran's proxy in Gaza,
  250. 20:58which is west of Israel,
  251. 21:02Hamas, which was funded and trained by Iran,
  252. 21:08invaded Israel, massacred 1200 Israelis,
  253. 21:13took 251 people hostage as captives.
  254. 21:17We now know almost a year later,
  255. 21:19many of the hostages were murdered in custody,
  256. 21:24egregious raping of women, I mean, barbarism of the highest order.
  257. 21:32What we've learned now is that Hezbollah had nearly 3,000 terrorists on Israel's northern
  258. 21:43border ready to invade Israel from the North on October 8th to press Israel from the West
  259. 21:52and from the North to do some of the same things.
  260. 21:57to and watch this clip number two. Go.
  261. 22:01The Israeli military defending its ground in
  262. 22:03courage and into southern Lebanon saying it aims
  263. 22:06to stop attempts by Hezbollah to infiltrate Israel.
  264. 22:09Also saying Israeli forces have been carrying out raids
  265. 22:13into southern Lebanon for months now.
  266. 22:16An IDF spokesman releasing new video footage this morning
  267. 22:19saying it shows Hezbollah's underground tunnels in Lebanon.
  268. 22:22Israel says it has destroyed many of them.
  269. 22:25These details coming just hours after Israel announced it launched a ground operation inside Lebanon
  270. 22:32Now what you saw in those videos are just that the video just now was just a portion
  271. 22:38of what was found if you would Jeff start toggling through the photos that the IDF
  272. 22:44secured they found massive caches of weapons of
  273. 22:50bunkers of
  274. 22:52tunnels
  275. 22:54and things that Hezbollah with the particular special forces,
  276. 23:00version or a portion of Hezbollah called the Rodwan that were poised to invade.
  277. 23:06But Israel snuffed it out and began launching small incursions and pushed them
  278. 23:14all back away from the Northern border, pushing them back away from the Northern
  279. 23:21border. And so while they are responding to Iran
  280. 23:29and planning, I should say, to respond to Iran,
  281. 23:31they have been, according to Rear Admiral Daniel Higari,
  282. 23:37they've had 70 incursions into Lebanon,
  283. 23:41where they've recovered all kinds of weapons.
  284. 23:49And oh, by the way, they've been doing this
  285. 23:50since October 8th, 2023.
  286. 23:57This makes me wonder, what, didn't a UN dispatch
  287. 24:00a peacekeeping force to the North?
  288. 24:02Wasn't there supposed to be this buffer zone
  289. 24:03between Israel and Lebanon
  290. 24:05because of Hezbollah's presence.
  291. 24:09They found the plans, the invasion plans,
  292. 24:13they were hoping and expecting
  293. 24:15because of Hamas's invasion on October 7th
  294. 24:19from Gaza that they would have had them
  295. 24:23caught off guard and all consumed,
  296. 24:25and then they would be able to come in from the North
  297. 24:29and wreak all manner of havoc.
  298. 24:40The evidence that the IDF is producing has said that
  299. 24:43Hezbollah has been preparing this invasion for years.
  300. 24:47Yet various media outlets in the world stage and in Western media always want to try to
  301. 24:59paint Israel as if they are the bad guy, the bad guy.
  302. 25:06Carl says, the UN has proven to be useless.
  303. 25:08I agree, but I think it's even worse than being useless.
  304. 25:14Terrorist organizations build up tunnels for years while you're there supposedly as a peacekeeping
  305. 25:19force.
  306. 25:20I would call that complicit, not only useless but complicit.
  307. 25:32So Israel has launched a ground offensive into Lebanon.
  308. 25:37According to the IDF, they're not planning to go all the way to Beirut, but they plan to
  309. 25:43do what is necessary so that 60,000 some Israeli citizens who live in the northern portion of
  310. 25:51Israel so that they could return to their homes because they have not been in their homes since
  311. 25:55October 7th.
  312. 26:01This is crazy.
  313. 26:03This is crazy.
  314. 26:07Tonight, there will be a vice presidential debate
  315. 26:11between Senator JD Vance and Minnesota Governor,
  316. 26:15the emotional support governor Tim Walts,
  317. 26:20the debate will begin at 9 p.m. Central,
  318. 26:25I'm sorry, 9 p.m. Eastern, 8 p.m. Central time on CBS.
  319. 26:31Will the moderators ask them about this?
  320. 26:36I would like to know.
  321. 26:40Here's where we get a tax, Joe Biden comes out and says,
  322. 26:42Israel needs to stop this.
  323. 26:45This is wild, man.
  324. 26:47This is wild.
  325. 26:48And if this information is true,
  326. 26:50I have no reason to doubt the information being true.
  327. 26:54Israel is putting on a show
  328. 26:57as to what intelligence operations should look like,
  329. 27:01what power and restraint can look like.
  330. 27:06You know, if it indeed is them
  331. 27:08who hotwired the pages and the walkie talkies,
  332. 27:14they're showing Iran, you talk a big game,
  333. 27:16but we can touch people in your capital in Tehran.
  334. 27:24And it seems that Israel just has had enough.
  335. 27:26And I think they begin to recognize, man, listen,
  336. 27:28we can't sit around and wait for what America
  337. 27:30is gonna say what they're gonna do.
  338. 27:32We have to do what we need to do to protect our people.
  339. 27:37And that's what it seems like it's happening.
  340. 27:40But this debate tonight will be 90 minutes on CBS.
  341. 27:46I will not be able to watch it live,
  342. 27:48but I'm gonna catch up, catch, catch, catch,
  343. 27:50I'm gonna catch it.
  344. 27:51So I'll be discussing this very likely tomorrow evening.
  345. 28:00this debate, but the stakes are very serious, man.
  346. 28:04Do I even need to remind anyone that while we have this
  347. 28:08basically theater of war that's opened in the Middle East,
  348. 28:12the US is Israel's ally, you know?
  349. 28:17What are we gonna do?
  350. 28:18We've talked about, well, if Iran attacks Israel,
  351. 28:21we're gonna respond, are we going to?
  352. 28:24And I don't want anybody to miss because you what I'm saying.
  353. 28:26I am not a war hawk at all.
  354. 28:33But what I'm saying, the drum beats for World War 3, you know, is gone from bongos to the
  355. 28:43based drum in the Martin ban, you know, because you have that happening there.
  356. 28:48Then you have what's happening with Russian Ukraine.
  357. 28:55It was interesting when Zelensky was here and he came on US military aircraft to Pennsylvania
  358. 29:06to hang out with Pennsylvania's governor's Josh Shapiro.
  359. 29:09And then he found his way to Mr. Trump.
  360. 29:11And he was trying, seemingly trying to give Mr. Trump
  361. 29:13to commit the US to things.
  362. 29:14And President Trump said, well, I know Putin,
  363. 29:18I could talk to him and I'm gonna talk to you too.
  364. 29:21And you kept saying it takes to the tango.
  365. 29:24It takes to the tango.
  366. 29:29It's very, very interesting
  367. 29:31because there are divergent views that are vying for
  368. 29:36the head of the executive branch
  369. 29:37of the American federal government.
  370. 29:40You can't forget, you still have China
  371. 29:43and it's increasing, dare I say, tensions in the Pacific
  372. 29:48with Taiwan.
  373. 29:56It's, it's, it's, hmm.
  374. 30:01This is a crucial time, man.
  375. 30:03This is, let me just say it this way.
  376. 30:04This is not a time where we need to have the junior varsity
  377. 30:07on the court.
  378. 30:09All right, we need serious people who have wisdom, all right?
  379. 30:14who have the wherewithal to fill the role of the greatest superpower of the nation as an ambassador
  380. 30:24and representative of our nation on the world stage. This is not amateur hour, man. This is not amateur
  381. 30:36hour. You know, I've been praying through and I'm leaning to calling for a time of fasting and prayer
  382. 30:46on the show, not nearly, not nearly for the election. Because I think one of the major problems of our
  383. 30:54our four-year election cycles, we have too many people
  384. 30:57that our confidence is placed in electoral results.
  385. 31:00Not realizing, listen, this nation will be
  386. 31:04a fundamentally different nation on October 6th.
  387. 31:09There are a lot of things that could transpire.
  388. 31:12For the sake of our nation and the fabric of our nation,
  389. 31:18it would be disastrous for us to have another episode
  390. 31:22to where the results are questionable.
  391. 31:26You know, if at the top of the ticket,
  392. 31:29Mr. Trump wins reelection.
  393. 31:32That's not the end of anything.
  394. 31:34That's the Lord just giving us a moment,
  395. 31:37a moment of reprieve,
  396. 31:40but that's not the end of anything.
  397. 31:43And God forbid, if it goes in another,
  398. 31:46in the other direction,
  399. 31:53we're living in Bible days, man.
  400. 31:55We're living in Bible days.
  401. 31:58And I truly, truly hope and pray that we have enough people
  402. 32:02who are sober about where we are.
  403. 32:05and they are willing to welcome the Lord to lead them,
  404. 32:09to lead us because here's the thing,
  405. 32:12there is nowhere to go from America.
  406. 32:15Do we understand that?
  407. 32:17There is nowhere else.
  408. 32:30Those who place their faith in Jesus
  409. 32:32are elevated to an extraordinary position.
  410. 32:35As co-heirs with Christ, we share in His inheritance.
  411. 32:38The gospel is the ultimate dignity giver,
  412. 32:40elevating the unworthy to unimaginable heights.
  413. 32:44Our lives should reflect the dignity,
  414. 32:46Empowering us to extend the same grace and love to others that has been so generously given to us
  415. 32:51I'm Jordan Shambli and you can read the rest of the gospel dignifies the undignified on the stand
  416. 32:57net
  417. 32:58Hamilton quarter podcast and one-minute commentaries are available at efr.net back to the Hamilton quarter on American family radio
  418. 33:14Welcome back to the Hamilton corner
  419. 33:17Abraham Hamilton a third here to the domestic to the domestic front we go now there two major stories
  420. 33:22One, I hinted at yesterday, but I didn't get to it having to deal with the International
  421. 33:29Long-Shormans Association, the Port Workers, a huge story with massive implications.
  422. 33:35But I want to get to another story I had prepared yesterday because we learned over the weekend
  423. 33:41as a result of a specific request from Representative Tony Gonzalez, he had a particular query for
  424. 33:50the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency.
  425. 33:56I'm telling you, this is just,
  426. 33:59this is sad on a number of fronts.
  427. 34:01And Jeff, I'm going to number five, just so you know.
  428. 34:06Representative Gonzalez asked for information
  429. 34:09concerning the criminality of
  430. 34:14illegal aliens in our country.
  431. 34:19What he learned and what the nation learned
  432. 34:23is quite shocking.
  433. 34:25And I'm definitely going to endeavor to contextualize this information, but it's shocking nonetheless,
  434. 34:38because many have been warning about this, including President Trump.
  435. 34:41And they've been mocked as you're just, you know, you're, you're, you're, what do you call
  436. 34:46it?
  437. 34:47You know, you're racist, you're racist.
  438. 34:51I don't know any Americans that have a problem with legal immigration.
  439. 34:55I know a lot of Americans that have a problem with illegal.
  440. 34:59And especially how it seems that illegal immigrants
  441. 35:01seem to be prioritized,
  442. 35:02especially many of our urban areas.
  443. 35:05I had so many clips where like in Chicago,
  444. 35:08where you have Venezuelans who've been here a year,
  445. 35:10they're able to buy their first home
  446. 35:11because of aid from various government agencies
  447. 35:13and groups, and I know American citizens
  448. 35:15who've never owned a home.
  449. 35:17Huh, that's very interesting.
  450. 35:19And American citizens never had the kind of aid
  451. 35:21from these agencies and governmental groups.
  452. 35:24So why do we have so much?
  453. 35:27Just makes you think about it.
  454. 35:30There was a report on the information collected by Representative Tony Gonzalez.
  455. 35:35I want you to listen to and watch clip number five.
  456. 35:40What we've learned from the Acting Iced Director via this letter to Congressman Tony Gonzalez
  457. 35:45is right now there are over 13,000 illegal aliens convicted of homicide who are roaming
  458. 35:53the United States right now.
  459. 35:54There are another 15,811 illegal aliens roaming the country right now who have been
  460. 36:00convicted of sexual assault and there are even more who are facing charges for homicide and
  461. 36:06charges for sexual assault.
  462. 36:08So this just goes to show guys the non-detained docket has exploded under the Biden administration
  463. 36:14to over I believe it's 7.3 million.
  464. 36:17They're anticipating it could hit 8 million by the end of the years.
  465. 36:20But looking at the numbers on this letter right here, there are currently over 600,000
  466. 36:27non-citizens on ISIS non-detained docket who are either convicted or excuse me 600,000 non-citizens
  467. 36:34on this non-detained docket who are roaming the country right now. Of that 425,000 have
  468. 36:39already been convicted of crimes. 222,000 are pending crimes.
  469. 36:49You learn this information. This is a dog on a chain. This is a dog on a chain. Now I
  470. 36:55I want to be clear and explain in this information.
  471. 36:58First, the data that I submitted
  472. 37:03to Congressman Tony Gonzalez only dates back to July of 2024.
  473. 37:07So this is not even as of October 2024.
  474. 37:11This is as of July 2024.
  475. 37:14And the data that Representative Gonzalez accumulated
  476. 37:22shows that as of July 2024,
  477. 37:25that there are, there were more than 7 million people, 7 million illegal immigrants on what's
  478. 37:35called the non-detained docket. Currently, on the non-detained docket. That's not the
  479. 37:42total number of people who've entered the country illegally over the last two and a half years.
  480. 37:45That is the total number of people that ICE is aware of that have either been convicted
  481. 37:53of crimes, illegal aliens that have been convicted of crimes in America and have been ordered to leave
  482. 38:00or they have been charged with crimes that have not, they have not yet been convicted,
  483. 38:06but have also, while they've been charged with crimes, they're being processed to be ordered to
  484. 38:12leave our country. That's the number that ICE has, over 7 million, over 7 million as of July 2024.
  485. 38:24in that number, in that number.
  486. 38:29And let me be even more clear when I say non-detained docket.
  487. 38:34The non-detained docket means that they're not in federal custody.
  488. 38:37So some of these people are in custody of state prisons and state jails,
  489. 38:44but many of them are not detained anywhere, anywhere.
  490. 38:49That's what is meant by non-detained docket.
  491. 38:54Among those, among the data included within this 7 million number,
  492. 38:58There are 425,431 convicted criminals.
  493. 39:04They have already been convicted.
  494. 39:07They have been convicted in the American legal system of crimes,
  495. 39:11and they have not yet been removed from our country.
  496. 39:15All right?
  497. 39:17There's another 222,141 who've been charged with crimes,
  498. 39:24not yet convicted, but the deportation process has started,
  499. 39:29But they're still in the country.
  500. 39:33Included in those numbers,
  501. 39:36including those numbers,
  502. 39:3862,231 illegal aliens have been convicted of assault,
  503. 39:4514,301 illegal aliens have been convicted of burglary,
  504. 39:5056,533 have been convicted
  505. 39:55with various drug offenses,
  506. 39:5813,099 have been convicted of homicide.
  507. 40:04Homicide, murder, guys.
  508. 40:10An additional 2,521 have been convicted of kidnapping.
  509. 40:14An additional 15,811 have been convicted of sexual assault.
  510. 40:18Those that have been convicted
  511. 40:20and still have not yet been deported.
  512. 40:27There's an additional 1,845 with pending homicide charges.
  513. 40:31An additional 42,915 with pending assault charges,
  514. 40:35An additional 3,266 with pending burglary charges and an additional 4,250 with pending assault charges.
  515. 40:42When ICE submitted this data to Congress, they also took a shot at sanctuary cities.
  516. 40:56I said quote, ICE recognizes that some jurisdictions are concerned that cooperating with federal
  517. 41:00immigration officials will erode trust with immigrant communities and make it harder for
  518. 41:04local law enforcement law enforcement to solve those populations.
  519. 41:07However, sanctuary policies can end up shielding dangerous criminals who often victimize those
  520. 41:15same communities."
  521. 41:16Ilejandro Mayorkas' office, the Department of Health and Human Services, felt like the
  522. 41:28information needed more detail.
  523. 41:30Well, some of that data includes convictions that have transpired years ago.
  524. 41:38Yeah!
  525. 41:42They shouldn't be in the country still.
  526. 41:47And in case you're wondering, because I'm sure some of you are, the number of illegal immigrants
  527. 41:52on the non-detained docket, on ISIS non-detained docket in fiscal year 2021 was 3.7 million
  528. 41:59people. Between fiscal year 2021 and fiscal year 2023, that 3.7 million has ballooned to
  529. 42:07over 7 million illegal aliens who have been convicted of crimes or have been charged with
  530. 42:17crimes and removal proceedings have began, but they have not been completed and many of these
  531. 42:23people are not detained anyway. I know that's shocking here, it's shocking for me to hear this.
  532. 42:32But when you hear things stated that there are tens of thousands of criminals who have entered
  533. 42:38our country illegally, that's not just a hyperbolic statement, guys. That's factual data that ICE
  534. 42:44has a nose.
  535. 42:46Now what's even sadder than that?
  536. 42:49Cause this information came out over the weekend.
  537. 42:53Only one network covered it with about
  538. 42:57a minute worth of coverage.
  539. 43:01This is sick.
  540. 43:03This is it.
  541. 43:03And this is another one of those things, you know,
  542. 43:07when you hear this on this program
  543. 43:10and you'll tell it to others and I can't be true
  544. 43:13cause I haven't heard it anywhere else.
  545. 43:19Just because you haven't heard it anywhere else
  546. 43:20doesn't make it any less true.
  547. 43:22And with everything I report on this show,
  548. 43:24and check it out for yourself to see whether or not I'm telling you to truth.
  549. 43:26Check it out for yourself.
  550. 43:29Check it out for yourself.
  551. 43:31This is insane.
  552. 43:33People might respond, well, Abraham, we have our own problems in America with criminality.
  553. 43:36Yes, we do.
  554. 43:37But you know what type of crime we can completely 100% eradicate illegal immigrant crime.
  555. 43:43You know how?
  556. 43:44By not allowing illegal immigrants in.
  557. 43:45We don't need to compound our problems with criminality with domestic American citizens
  558. 43:50by adding criminals from other countries into our country illegally.
  559. 43:54That's insane. That's insane. I mentioned yesterday the
  560. 44:03poor workers who work on the International Longshoreman Association.
  561. 44:13Their strike has started. I told you would begin on midnight.
  562. 44:16Technically this morning. I. L. A. President Harold Daggot was interviewed.
  563. 44:23just really an off the cuff interview because he's leading the strike and he's upset and it seems that we're gonna have to buckle up because the results of this strike I mean I explained yesterday.
  564. 44:46The ports are impacted from Maine all the way down to the Gulf Coast reaching all the way toward to Texas including a port in my hometown in the Orleans Louisiana.
  565. 44:54You're talking about all along the Eastern Seaboard,
  566. 44:56with everything from clothing items to fruit items, food items,
  567. 45:02automobiles, you name it.
  568. 45:05It comes in to that portion of our country through those ports.
  569. 45:09And if this shuts down for a long period of time,
  570. 45:15I mean, we could probably endure a week or so.
  571. 45:18But if this is a protracted strike, this has the consequence,
  572. 45:22this has the potential, I should say, of bringing our economy
  573. 45:25me to a screeching halt. And I want to mention that our economy had all kinds of difficulty
  574. 45:31during COVID, but that was largely due to increase in demand. People weren't going out. You wanted
  575. 45:36to go so as to people ordering things more than normal. So yeah, lots of ships that were, you know,
  576. 45:42lining up to enter the ports. That was because of increasing demand. But if you have a scuttling
  577. 45:47of supply, that has a potential being even worse than what happened under COVID. Listen to this,
  578. 45:56relatively short clip from Harold Daggot because he was quite upset.
  579. 46:02I'm going to talk a little bit about what he's upset about.
  580. 46:04Clip number three, go.
  581. 46:06Over the weekend, the passcode.
  582. 46:08The auditorium lab at Julie Sue has been terrific.
  583. 46:11She's knocking, knocking down doors.
  584. 46:13She's trying to stop this.
  585. 46:15She's trying to get us to a media where we can have a fair negotiations.
  586. 46:19It's the companies that don't want to.
  587. 46:22They don't want to sit here and be fair.
  588. 46:24So that's why we're out here fighting for our livelihood.
  589. 46:27What more from the automation do you want? What more protections could there be?
  590. 46:31What more?
  591. 46:31Yeah, they have language in there now.
  592. 46:33Not strong enough because what happens is they come in with new technology.
  593. 46:37We just caught them in Mobile, Alabama called Autogate.
  594. 46:41And that means the trucks are coming in and they're already checked in somewhere else
  595. 46:47and not using the checkers in the ILA.
  596. 46:50Circavents in the contract, they don't care. They don't care.
  597. 46:53It's not fair and if we don't put our foot down now they would like to run over us and we're not gonna allow that
  598. 47:00You are gonna grind the economy to a halt here on the East Coast and the Gulf Coast
  599. 47:04Not us they don't spin it now because you're Fox News
  600. 47:11Are you worried that this time capital to settle this thing are you worried that this strike is gonna hurt the everyday American the farmers that need to
  601. 47:19I reached the export market.
  602. 47:21They're telling me that they're going to hurt.
  603. 47:22Now I'll start to realize who the longshoreman are, right?
  604. 47:25Nobody cares about it.
  605. 47:26People never gave a s*** about us until now,
  606. 47:29when they finally realized that the chain is being broke now.
  607. 47:33Cars won't come in.
  608. 47:36Food won't come in.
  609. 47:37Clothing won't come in.
  610. 47:38You know how many people depend on our jobs?
  611. 47:41Half the world.
  612. 47:42And it's time for them and time for Washington
  613. 47:45to put so much pressure on them to take care of us.
