0:00 Darkness is not an affirmative force. 0:02 It simply reoccupies the space vacated by the light. 0:05 This is the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio. 0:11 It should be uncomfortable for a believer to live as a hypocrite. 0:14 Delivery people out of the bondage of mainstream media. 0:17 And the philosophies of this world. 0:19 God has called you and me to be his ambassador. 0:23 Even in this dark moment. 0:26 Let's not miss our moment. 0:27 And now the Hamilton Corner. 0:32 Good evening, everyone. 0:34 Welcome to the Hamilton Corner here on American Family Radio. 0:37 I am your host, Abraham Hamilton, third. 0:39 Thank you also to our NRB TV audience. 0:42 I'm grateful to be with you. 0:44 I'm gonna ask you guys to bear with us. 0:46 It appears we're having some technical difficulties 0:48 with the streaming, but we're trying to get that worked out 0:50 as we go for with the program. 0:52 Those who are listening on the radio, 0:53 radio you won't be affected at all, 0:56 But we're trying to get that going as quickly as we can. 1:00 Thank you so much for tuning into the program, 1:02 each and every one of you. 1:03 I am so grateful to be on again with you this evening. 1:07 I am joined as is our custom by. 1:09 I call it a contingent right across from me, my man, 1:11 a hundred grand Mr. Bobby, 1:13 and in the screening room, 1:17 your friendly neighborhood would a haulik 1:18 perpetually in recovery who leaps tall stacks of birch 1:22 in a single chop. 1:23 I guess I wouldn't be a leap. 1:26 That would be a I'll figure out another word for that in a moment. 1:32 But we are ready to rock and roll with today's edition of the program at this very moment. 1:39 Many of you, if not most of you are making your transitions from your part time jobs where 1:43 you generate an income to your full time jobs where you cultivate an outcome. 1:47 And as you do so, I want to encourage you to do so with intentionality, understanding the 1:54 the primacy that God places on family, 1:57 welcoming that primacy to inform 1:59 how we approach the notions of family, 2:02 recognizing that worship is not limited 2:04 to a particular activity, but it is in fact a lifestyle. 2:09 That the pinnacle of this lifestyle, the worship, 2:11 is obedient, central to the worship lifestyle, 2:18 the pinnacle of which is obedience, 2:19 is our individual responsibility. 2:23 be advocates and execute tours of our King's Great Commission. Every single believer is called 2:29 to ministry. Don't buy the narrative that is limited to a select few. Don't think you have to have a 2:37 specialized office selected for you. Every single believer is called to be 2:44 called to execute our King's Great Commission. So let us be about our Father's business. Our 2:48 nation's greatest and most enduring need is for repentance of the unbeliever. 2:57 The most enduring and greatest need is for repentance across the board, believers who live 3:03 lifestyles of repentance. 3:05 It's very easy to do what Richard Dawkins would encourage you to do between his spot 3:11 at a day. 3:13 I would dare say that I'm not a believer. 3:15 I don't believe what the Bible says, but I would very much call myself a cultural Christian. 3:23 He likes the cathedrals. 3:24 He likes the Christmas carols. 3:26 He likes the things that Christianity produces, but he doesn't like Christ. 3:34 I believe here in our own nation we're having a reckoning because over the last four years 3:40 people got a glimpse into just how crazy, crazy it can be. 3:45 we said, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, 3:46 you know, Chase Strangio, 3:47 dude got a mustache and a beard, but it sounds like this. 3:52 Dude, there's a woman who wants a Supreme Court 3:53 justice is called a mister. 3:56 And they want to do what to our children? 3:58 What? 3:59 That's crazy. 4:01 And a lot of people like an honor, that's too far. 4:05 But in practical reality, 4:07 we have many Americans that are just like Richard Dawkins. 4:10 We want the trappings of the things 4:11 that Christianity produces, 4:13 but we don't really want Christ. 4:17 It's like literally having the affinity for running water, 4:20 Let alone hot running water, but you hate plumbing. 4:26 See how far you get with your pension for running water 4:29 if you despise plumbing and the plumber. 4:34 It'll work like that, Chief. 4:38 And I'm greatly concerned that we're in this moment 4:41 in our nation. 4:42 I've said before, there's a great temptation 4:44 that I am concerned about, that those will believe 4:47 because of electoral results, that this Christless conservatism 4:52 is what you want to adopt and describe to you, 4:54 that there is a, this godless populism where you want the trappings of what a biblical worldview 5:01 produces, the trappings of what Western civilization produces while ignoring what is the foundation 5:07 of what became Western civilization. A lot of people forget that one of the greatest 5:13 socio-political works is Augustine, the city of God, you know, Augustine, that theologian and 5:19 apologist who was a Christ follower, you know him? He's not a coincidence that the Lord produced 5:26 that work through his mind and so much, so much more to the word of God. 5:31 We go Proverbs chapter one and this is going to underscore the concerns I've just been 5:34 articulating. 5:35 Proverbs chapter one, I'm grateful to see it looks like the streaming is up on the tube 5:42 of you, but not in some of the other places. 5:50 Proverbs chapter one, verses 20 through 23 is where I want to go today. 5:54 Proverbs chapter one, verses 23 through 23. 5:56 This is what the word of God says, wisdom cries aloud in the streets. 6:01 Wisdom cries aloud in the street. 6:04 In the markets, she raises her voice. 6:07 At the head of the noisy streets, she cries out. 6:10 At the entrance of the city gate, she speaks. 6:13 How long, old simple ones, will you love being simple? 6:18 How long will scoffers delight in their scoffing and fools hate knowledge? 6:26 If you turn at my reproof, behold, I will pour out my spirit to you and I will make my words 6:32 known to you. 6:35 As I've mentioned, in many ways, we got a glimpse of what our society was careening toward. 6:44 I adopted the moniker of she who shall never be president from 2016 because by God's grace, 6:49 we were spared that demonic travesty. 6:54 And I mean everywhere that I'm saying, I don't mean her personally, but I mean the ideas that 6:58 she espoused. 7:01 And then by God's grace, we saw what 2020 looked like through 2024. 7:11 And God extended his mercy and spared us from she will show and never be president the remix. 7:15 Well, you're part of hola. 7:18 Somebody tell a Lord, thank you. 7:21 Somebody, somebody, somebody tell a Lord, thank you. 7:24 but it's bearing us from that. 7:31 But I'm greatly concerned that many 7:32 will misconstrue God's mercy 7:35 and don't recognize that wisdom cries allowed in the street. 7:38 God is showing us guys that if you reject me in my ways, 7:42 this is what you're going towards. 7:44 I don't think many people properly understand 7:47 exactly how horrific it is for us to live in a society 7:55 where every man does right, 7:56 what is right in his own eyes. 7:58 I don't think we understand that. 8:00 I don't think we understand that it is, 8:02 there is a, you know, all these people 8:04 that try to, not about, there is a binary choice. 8:06 It is God's way or the way of Hades. 8:11 It is God's way or it is man's way. 8:13 There is no middle ground. 8:14 There is no societal syncretism that will work. 8:18 Can we get a little bit of what Godliness produces? 8:21 And then that's mixed with a whole bunch of secular humanism. 8:25 And let's come up with a hard spodge of what can work 8:28 because it will not work. 8:31 Inevitably, when we reject God's way, 8:34 we open ourselves up to every other way, 8:36 and the conclusion of every other way, 8:38 or to say it the way that Jesus said it, 8:39 the conclusion of the broad road is destruction. 8:43 But it don't have to go down like that. 8:46 It doesn't have to be like that 8:48 because wisdom cries allowed in the street. 8:50 The verses that I've read today from the book of Proverbs, 8:54 the word of God is personifying wisdom. 8:58 Wisdom cries aloud in the streets. 9:02 She raises her voices in the marketplace. 9:06 I've said to you guys repeatedly before, 9:08 there's a kind of an undercurrent happening now 9:12 that we have to kind of develop some notion 9:14 of constitution of fidelity, 9:15 but we don't need to try to link it 9:17 to any transcendent theological truth. 9:19 And guys, that's an exercise of utility. 9:21 I'm just telling you, for those who often present 9:27 the oft repeated quip, you cannot legislate morality. 9:31 That's just a lie, guys. 9:33 Just a lie. 9:35 Whenever you have any policy, 9:37 a policy expression is a foundational expression 9:41 of what the policy makers believe, 9:43 what is right versus what is wrong. 9:47 It's just the bottom line. 9:49 If you say to yourself, you know, 9:51 to draw from the tax, the Tea Party movement, 9:54 we're taxed enough already. 9:56 Why? 9:59 Why is it wrong to have one's capacity and resources 10:05 forcibly confiscated from them. 10:06 Why is it wrong to rob your neighbor? 10:09 Why is Stevie wrong? 10:11 Why is Stevie wrong? 10:12 Whether it's a thug on the corner, with a pistol, 10:15 or it's the government? 10:17 Why is that wrong? 10:20 I know you can offer an explanation to me 10:23 as to how things may work better 10:24 if those deaths don't occur, 10:26 but I'm not asking you to explain to me why they work better. 10:29 I'm asking you to explain to me why is it wrong 10:33 to be stolen from? 10:34 Why isn't wrong to murder your neighbor? 10:37 Why? 10:40 No more wars, I get that, right? 10:42 Yeah, okay, cool. 10:43 No more wars. 10:44 Why don't we want people killed in other nations? 10:50 Huh? 10:52 Why? 10:54 Why do we view it to be virtuous 10:58 for a man to be able to eat the fruit of his own labor? 11:01 Why? 11:03 Not what? 11:04 Why? 11:05 See, we, as a society, we've been dumbed down 11:08 such a place to where we have found the notion of investigating the wise to matters as being 11:15 unnecessary to our utilitarian approach to life. 11:19 I don't care what the wild is telling me what works. 11:25 Into where the dumbing down has happened so thoroughly and pervasively some people become 11:28 overly anxious and overwhelmed at the notion of having to think deeply about anything. 11:37 And then the dumbing down occurs because it's far easier to control a populace that is easily 11:44 manipulate. So when you have society aversion to probing the questions as to why then what 11:52 ends up happening is, well, which it works best. This is why we have the intellectual insanity 11:59 offered by people like Congresswoman Nancy Mase, where she'll go to the mat, make all 12:03 kind of commercials. Oh, we don't want we won't have women in men's restrooms on, we 12:09 want, I'm sorry, we won't have men and women's restrooms on Capitol Hill. But you know, I 12:13 I support the same sex marriage. 12:16 Congresswoman Mase, do you not understand 12:21 that one is connected to the other? 12:22 Do you not understand that if you have a society 12:25 that will say sex is irrelevant as it pertains to marriage, 12:28 how then can that same society say it's irrelevant 12:31 as it pertains to marriage, 12:32 but the sex of the people in restrooms is relevant 12:35 when it comes to intimate spaces. 12:42 It's an intellectual inconsistency. 12:44 And for people I heard it be loud and wrong about it, 12:47 not just wrong, but loud and boastfully wrong about it, 12:52 and saying that this is a part of a new presentation 12:54 of conservatism is an example of what I am talking about. 13:02 It is an example of what I am talking about. 13:05 So what I'm appealing to you for is that 13:09 in the midst of this time period where God has granted us 13:12 this reprieve, where God has granted us his mercy 13:15 that we, to use a football analogy, 13:18 that we don't get a drive started to where our objective is 13:22 to get into end zone, but we actually Peter out 13:27 at the opponent's 35 yard line. 13:29 You know, we Peter out at the opponent's 45 yard line. 13:33 Too close to have a successful punt, too far 13:38 to make a field goal. 13:41 And when a situation where the score is of such a field goal 13:44 and you're going to win it anyway, 13:47 that we as a society have pushed so far 13:53 where we have even technological innovations, you know, 13:56 to a radical thing for people who say, 13:58 yes, life begins a conception. 14:00 Then we say, wait a minute, 14:01 should we use artificial reproductive technologies 14:04 to intentionally create conceived human beings 14:08 only for the purposes of discarding them? 14:13 Yeah, I'm opposed to abortion, but I support IVF. 14:16 What is IVF? 14:18 How does it work? 14:21 What is surrogacy? 14:24 How does it work? 14:26 What I'm driving that guy is that we have to resist this temptation to simply say, 14:35 well, we'll have a utilitarian approach to just figure out what works as opposed to driving 14:44 all the way down to the Y. Because if we don't get it right now, and if you think the last 14:50 four years were an indication of where we could be headed, oh boy, buckle your seat belts. 14:55 Shining light into the darkness, this is the Hamilton Corner, an American family radio. 15:11 Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham Hamilton III here. 15:14 Speaking of the notions that contribute to our national degradation, you will be upset 15:27 by this. 15:30 You will be. 15:32 Mm-hmm. 15:33 So on the way out of the door, Mr. Joseph Robin Ed Biden, Mr. Ice Cream Man. 15:46 The notorious slash in glorious jrb his acolytes with cackling camera like 15:54 Except she probably but let's just be honest 15:57 These people are not making any of these decisions 16:00 They're not making any of these decisions. These decisions are being made in their names 16:04 I'm not even certain mr. Biden knows what's going on other than his favorite ice cream flavors at the moment and I mean and 16:17 And I wasn't gonna bring this up because it was so bad. I felt bad for her. I'm you know, I'm compassionate 16:24 I don't know if y'all saw that video, 16:25 Kamala Harris put out after the election. 16:26 She was like, well, he did something unprecedented. 16:29 We raised $1.5 billion. 16:31 It was like, you think that's a positive? 16:35 You lost, you raised $1.5 billion, 16:38 and you spend it all in the matter of 100 days 16:41 to when you end up $20 million in debt. 16:43 Man, that is not a win. 16:47 You know, that is not a win. 16:50 She was chiffing on that sticky icky 16:54 and it got to her individual. 16:56 And they put that out, it's like, oh man. 17:00 But she's going to fade into obscurity now. 17:03 I know she thinks she has a political future. 17:06 I'll tell you in Dougie, not so fresh. 17:08 You know, it's a wrap. 17:10 Y'all are done. 17:12 In fact, lots of with the cannibalizing 17:15 with the Democratic Party rhetorically, of course. 17:18 It's coming to the surface exactly what I told you 17:20 in this program. 17:20 You have like Democratic longtime strategists, 17:23 whatever, like Lindy Lee coming out and saying, 17:26 well, you do know the Obamas didn't want Kamala Harris. 17:30 Nancy Pelosi didn't want camel Harrison almost like a dog 17:34 They wanted to to muscle them out of the presidential election 17:39 But they were hoping for a lightning round of a primary 17:45 President Obama at the time of 17:47 Joe Biden's announcement of his withdrawal from the presidential election. He favored Mark Kelly senator mark here Kelly from Arizona 17:53 I told you guys that was happening which is why he was the last one to come out in the door to come along 17:58 this is a brock 17:59 he was last 18:00 so 18:03 Jill Biden and them say I will y'all want to play okay? I support camel of hairs and they're like oh no 18:10 And then y'all saw what the rest was well on the way out of the door 18:23 just yesterday we learned that 18:29 Someone in America shadow government passed a or should I say asserted a measure under the Biden Harris? 18:36 regimes authority 18:37 That the unfrozen $10 billion for our in what? 18:43 Yes, they did. That is right. The free beacon obtained a copy of the non-public order transmitted 18:52 to Congress from the State Department that described quote, it was in the national interest 18:58 of the United States to allow Iran to access $10 billion that had been frozen in quote, 19:08 $10 billion. The report goes on to say quote the Biden State Department tweaked the waiver 19:14 last year to allow Tehran to convert the funds from Iraqi dinars to euros, then hold those 19:19 euros and bank accounts based in Oman, access to a widely traded currency like the euro, 19:26 and they was Iran, and they was Iran to more easily spend the cash in international markets. 19:32 In quote, $10 billion, the world's number one state sponsor of terror, the nation that 19:45 We know paid trained Hamas, you know, that Hamas that just attacked Israel on October 3rd, 19:53 2023. 19:54 Somebody want to remind me what? 19:56 Oh, yeah, that's right. 19:57 The Biden administration unfroes $6 billion for the Iranians just before Israel was attacked 20:05 in 2023 by Hamas. 20:07 The same Iran that trains Hezbollah and funds Hezbollah. 20:12 the same Iran that funds and trains to Hooti, the Hooti terrorists and Yemen, the same one. 20:23 In Israel, it's asserting itself against Iran's terror proxies and just as that is happening, 20:29 the United States of America makes it easy for Iran to access another $10 billion. 20:37 Guys, you cannot make this stuff up. 20:44 But don't worry, don't worry, of course, because absolutely the money that the US has 20:50 allowed Iran to put their hands on again, it will not be used for terrorist purposes. 20:56 It will be used for humanitarian aid, right? 21:04 That's what the non-public order says Iran has been given access to this money for usage 21:11 only for humanitarian purposes, not like money is fungible or anything like that. 21:17 Of course not. 21:19 Surely the Iranians will use the money. 21:22 According to the US's specificities, right? 21:26 Well, not so fast, my friend. 21:32 I'm going to direct your attention to an interview back in 2023, when I ran then President Ibrahim Raisi, 21:40 was interviewed by NBC's Lester Holt. And this was when this was when the US was sending six 21:48 billion dollars to Iran in 2023. And oh Lester asked them directly. Now you're going to use these 21:57 This is fonts for humanitarian purposes, right? 22:01 Listen to and watch clip number two. 22:04 Go. 22:09 You got it? 22:11 Clip number two, clip number two that won't work, y'all. 22:14 Clip number two is saying we don't want a number two now. 22:18 It's playing, it was playing, the video was playing, 22:20 but I don't know what the audio is doing. 22:22 Maybe let's stop and reload it. 22:25 I thought I had that set up nicely. 22:29 Technology is wonderful when it works. 22:33 But when it doesn't work, okay, we're ready. 22:37 I think we're ready to restart the video. 22:42 I'm gonna keep going and you let me know 22:44 when we have the audio. 22:45 The audio's not working. 22:45 Okay, well, I'll just tell you what 22:47 what was said in the video. 22:49 Iran's president Ibrahim Raisi at the time, 22:55 he said, oh, this money, and he's speaking in Farsi 23:01 or Arabic, but he says, this money belongs 23:04 to the Islamic Republic of Iran. 23:06 And naturally, we will decide how the Republic of Iran 23:10 will spend the money wherever we need it. 23:13 Unless the whole fire is back. 23:15 They wait, wait, wait, the US has said that money has to be used for humanitarian purposes. 23:19 And Iran's Ibrahim, Ibrahim, Raisi says, oh yeah, humanitarian need. 23:24 Yeah. And humanitarian needs means whatever we say the Iranian regime needs, 23:31 the Iranian government is going to determine how it's going to be used. 23:38 Shortly, not like the next day, but a month or a couple months after this interview, 23:43 we see the October 7th attack transpired. 23:46 So I'm sure, I'm sure nothing bad is gonna happen. 23:51 This go around when Iran gets their hands 23:54 on this additional $10 billion, right? 24:01 Oh boy, oh boy, what can I make this stuff up? 24:05 Cannot make it up, cannot make it up. 24:15 Cannot make this stuff up guys, this is remarkable. 24:21 Then I've been having this in the stack for quite some time. 24:27 A report was developed and circulated 24:30 in the United States Senate concerning the percentages of federal employees who actually 24:38 show up to work in person. 24:40 I never want to paint with a broad brush. 24:42 I don't want to speak too broadly about a notion. 24:50 But according to the report, a mere 6% of the federal workforce, quote, reports in person 24:59 to work on a full-time basis. 25:02 6% of the thousands of federal employees, 6% report in person on a full-time basis. 25:11 Now I understand with technology certain jobs, they don't have to be in person, they get that 25:15 in nature, but how much or should I say how efficient is the word if most people are not 25:24 in person. 25:25 And so of course this caught the attention of Elon Musk as he's going on the doge endeavor. 25:32 of you may recall that when Elon Musk took purchase Twitter, one of the first things he 25:38 did was eliminated remote work. 25:42 The next things he did, he terminated right out of gate over half of the Twitter employees, 25:52 then terminated another 20% thereabouts and people doomed Twitter and I think he lost 25:57 like $49 billion the first year and ad revenue eliminated 26:03 and now with a smaller workforce, Twitter's valuation 26:08 has exceeded exponentially. 26:11 But this caught his attention where Elon Musk dug 26:15 into the numbers a little bit more. 26:17 He said he posted this on X quote, 26:19 if you exclude security guards and maintenance personnel, 26:23 the number of government workers who show up in person 26:25 and do 40 hours of work a week is closer to 1%. 26:29 Now again, I'm sure some of the jobs you can do remotely, but 99% if you exclude the 26:39 security personnel than the maintenance workers. 26:44 99% good. 26:46 This is gracious. 26:48 The report continues. 26:49 Quote the nation's capital as a ghost town with government buildings averaging an occupancy 26:54 an occupancy rate of 12%. 27:00 That is wild. 27:04 That is wild. 27:05 The report continues leasing and maintenance costs for federal office buildings as well as 27:12 the costs that keep them running is about $15.7 billion annually. 27:21 Meanwhile the government has ownership of about 7,697 vacant buildings and 2,265 of 27:31 them are somewhat empty and that costs about $15 million for leasing and maintenance of 27:38 underutilized space. 27:41 According to the report, now much of this is not gonna be news to any of you listening 27:46 to this program. 27:47 Many of you have been pointing out for years, our government is a hub of waste fraud and 28:00 abuse. 28:03 One of the other things that I found interesting in this report is that somewhere between 28:12 23% and 68% of teleworking employees for some of the federal agencies are boosting their salaries 28:20 by receiving incorrect locality pay. 28:23 Bobby, you'll be familiar with this. 28:25 The some employees live more than 2,000 miles away from their office, 28:31 yet teleworkers collect higher locality pay, many of them for over a decade. 28:35 Meaning that their offices are in this location, they're representing themselves having lived 28:40 near this location, but they don't live there anymore. 28:42 But the locality pay increases their salaries. 28:47 Like what? 28:48 Over 25% of federal tele workers on a daily basis live over 50 miles away from the workplace, 28:55 according to a US office of personnel management. 29:03 Now again, no shade of people have to commute. 29:05 Commuting is a real thing. 29:06 But how many? 29:09 So if you have government salaries determined in part by the locations of an employee's official 29:13 your work site and there are 58 locality pay areas with base pay for federal employees adjusted 29:21 to account for the cost of living in each. 29:25 Then why should they get that cost of living increase if they never leave their homes? 29:33 You get that cost of living increase because they're taking into consideration and taking 29:36 you this long to get from where you live to work. 29:38 But if you ain't going to work from your home to the office, I'm telling you, waste fraud 29:45 and abuse, that is thy name. 29:52 Yeah. 29:54 And just, that's just amazing, man. 29:57 And again, one of those things that could never 29:58 transpire long term in the private sector. 30:03 You know, you have some of these small business owners 30:04 there at work, no, wait a minute, I'm in the office. 30:06 How come I'm only one here? 30:09 You know, when I get it, you know, the schmovid scare, but 30:12 wasn't that four years ago? 30:13 Oh, no, wait, wait, wait, three years ago. 30:22 Boy, oh boy, oh boy. 30:27 It's just amazingly interesting. 30:28 And then you have this piece. 30:30 I mean, this is kind of obvious. 30:31 I think everybody knew this was coming. 30:34 FBI Director Christopher Ray tended his resignation today. 30:38 I don't think there are very many people shedding tears because Mr. Ray has gone away. 30:51 Mr. Ray has gone away. 30:53 Mr. Trump says, what a great day. 30:57 Because America, we say, yay, for there is no more. 31:00 Christopher Ray. 31:01 What? 31:02 had in the hat you say, nay. 31:05 Chris had a wish and he still collected pay, 31:07 but today is the day where the world said nay 31:11 to Christopher Ray as he parted ways. 31:14 Heh heh heh. 31:19 Seriously, President Trump posted on his true social quote, 31:22 the resignation, the resignation of Christopher Ray 31:27 is a great day for America, it's a really great day. 31:31 As it will end the weaponization of what has become known 31:35 As United States Department of Injustice 31:37 and truly has become a Department of Injustice, 31:41 he goes on. 31:42 It's pretty obvious that that was gonna happen. 31:44 All the many appointments that have been announced, 31:48 I am really looking forward to see 31:51 what Cash Patel would do as the head of the FBI. 32:01 Time! 32:02 Oh, strong little boy! 32:04 That a boy, son! 32:06 You're way away! 32:07 Oh, who's my strong little man? 32:09 Rollovers can be milestones in life, 32:11 Some early on and some later. 32:14 One rollover you might consider is from your individual 32:17 retirement account to a charitable gift annuity 32:19 with the AFA Foundation. 32:22 If you'd like to increase your retirement income 32:24 and leave an impactful gift to the work 32:26 of American Family Association, 32:28 the Charitable Gift annuity is a worthwhile option. 32:31 To learn more, contact the AFA Foundation at 800-326-4543 32:36 or email foundation at afa.net. 32:43 If you own an IRA, 32:44 would like to increase your charitable giving, 32:46 but need retirement income, 32:48 the IRA to CGA rollover may be for you. 32:51 Call the AFA Foundation at 800-326-4543-Extension-345. 33:04 Hamilton Quarter Podcast and One-Minute Common Terrets 33:07 are available at eafr.net. 33:10 back to the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio. 33:14 Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, 33:16 Abraham Hamilton the third here. 33:21 I wanna share something, 33:23 wanna share something to everybody 33:26 that I wanna have a conversation with you about. 33:29 That's just indicative of the types of things 33:32 I'm describing when I'm saying 33:34 that man God has granted us a reprieve 33:36 but I think we've underestimated how far we've pushed 33:39 and how horrific everyone doing what is right in their own eyes, 33:44 what it really looks like. 33:50 So I came across this piece on a side-up ruse 33:53 from time to time called First Things, 33:56 and it's titled, The Piece is titled, 33:58 Return of the Cyborgs, all right? 34:02 Because again, when we're talking about the why, 34:04 I don't think many people often consider 34:06 the logical consequences of the notions they adopt 34:12 of spouse. This piece right to the cyborg is written by an author by the name of Mary 34:18 Harrington. And she was reviewing a book written by a woman who calls herself a cyborg feminist 34:30 by the name of Sophie Lewis. And this woman's book about 224 pages is titled full surrogacy 34:38 Now feminism against family feminism against family and I want to share a bit with you about this and have a little bit of 34:49 Discourse with you on this point because a lot of us were busy. We have our lives we're going through 34:56 So we not always have the time to think through some of these things and implications, but we really really should 35:02 because I 35:04 Wholeheartedly believe in the first amendment. I believe in the marketplace of ideas. I believe in 35:09 in freedom of speech that we don't need societal censorship, 35:14 that the way that you confront a horrible idea 35:17 is by the assertion of a better idea that exposes 35:21 the fallacies within the horrible idea. 35:25 I believe that would everything in me. 35:27 But in order to have a proper marketplace of ideas, 35:31 we need to have people who fundamentally understand 35:34 what the ideas are, 35:35 because what happens in our society, 35:37 for a number of reasons, 35:38 some of which includes censorship, but also it includes 35:44 people lie. 35:46 They know that their ideas are crazy, or let me say it this way, 35:51 are extreme, but they want people to embrace their ideas 35:55 so they don't expose the photos of what they really believe. 35:58 They'll expose just a part. 36:04 For example, here's a perfect example. 36:06 You can do some research to support what I'm saying. 36:09 I remember when the same six marriage debate came about. 36:13 Initially, the assertion was, 36:15 oh no, no, no, no, we're not interested in marriage. 36:17 We just want some type of legal status. 36:20 So we can have people who are same-sex, I'm saying. 36:23 So we can allow our property be inherited. 36:27 We can have visits and hospitals to which I said, 36:31 well, you can do all that right now. 36:33 There's nothing in the law that prohibits anybody 36:35 from writing a will and leaving your property to whoever 36:38 you want, however you see fit. 36:39 just write a will. 36:42 Same thing, if you go to the hospital, 36:44 you notify the hospital who you want 36:47 to be able to visit you in the hospital. 36:49 If you want somebody to even have, you know, 36:51 end of life directives that they can do for you, 36:54 you simply create a living will. 36:56 There's ways to do all of that right now. 36:58 And I said, oh, no, I'm not telling the truth. 37:00 This is not, there's, oh, we don't want them. 37:02 We just want civil unions. 37:03 We just want civil recognition. 37:04 I was like, that's not true. 37:06 Because everything you're saying you wanna do, 37:07 you can do right now. 37:09 And then what happened? 37:12 Five minutes later. 37:14 Marriage, we want marriage, we want marriage. 37:17 We want marriage, our unions are equal to yours. 37:21 We want love, love, we want to love, 37:23 we want to love, we want to love. 37:25 It's like, that's a lie, you can love whatever you want to love. 37:26 You don't need the law to know you can love and not love. 37:29 No, you want, you want, you want marriage, 37:33 not because you want to get married. 37:34 Here's, this is what I'm driving at. 37:36 We say, we want to be able to get married, do some research. 37:41 What percentage of homosexual couples 37:43 got quote unquote married following a burger fell has that increased 37:50 you want to show answer? No, no, no, it is not. No, it is not. 37:59 Because they're not so secret secret, but they don't want you to know about 38:04 pursuant to the after the ball strategy. They don't want you to actually really 38:07 know what homosexual practice and consist of because monogamy is an 38:11 institutional non feature of homosexuality by and large. And of those who 38:22 But what the game area is usually lesbians who divorce according to statistics at a far 38:30 hiring, often far more volatile and violent. 38:33 And I'm not trying to denigrate all of these people individually because there's still 38:37 people made an image of God, but I want you to understand the concepts of what I'm saying. 38:40 That it was a narrative society because the objective was to contribute toward the destruction 38:46 of marriage. 38:51 And it is not the exclusive reasoning for this, but also look at American marriage rates, 38:56 postal burgafell among heterosexual people. 39:01 And what has happened to American marriage rates? 39:03 Postal burgafell, they have plummeted. 39:07 Along with what else? 39:09 Demographic reproduction rates have plummeted. 39:12 Because when you understand the ideas, 39:15 you will understand that critical theory, 39:18 a subset of which is critical queer theory, 39:21 or queer critical theory, 39:23 is promulgated for the purposes of destroying marriage, 39:27 destroying marriage as an institution, 39:30 because the Marxist view, marriage, 39:33 as a system of oppression. 39:36 And so we need to liberate human interaction 39:40 and relationships, this is what they say, 39:42 liberate human interaction and relationships 39:44 from the bourgeoisie oppressive structure 39:48 of familial bonds, of consanguinity 39:51 and biological affinity. 39:54 Sophie Lewis takes this notion to its full extent, 40:03 because she argues in this book, and I'll quote you here, 40:06 that a truly, quote, a truly egalitarian feminism 40:09 must extend the feminist challenge to sex stereotypes 40:13 all the way to the origins of life itself. 40:19 See, Sophie Lewis as a cyborg feminist 40:23 wants to eliminate, I'm sorry, wants to liberate 40:26 The idea of family development, having anything whatsoever to do with biological relationships 40:35 and marriage as a whole in exchanging it for what she calls gestational communism. 40:41 To where the means for this gestational communism is mechanistic artificial reproductive technologies 40:49 to where we strip reproduction in total away from marriage and family and we become a nation 40:57 that it's really the matrix come to life frankly guys to where the focal point of any reproduction 41:04 is the surrogate not a father or a mother because if you're going to truly be any egalitarian feminist 41:12 it also requires the liquefication as we said sorry the liquidation of the family i'm telling 41:17 you guys this all sounds loony tunes and i'm telling you it is but when you take ideas to their 41:24 fullness logical consequence, the lunacy is exposed. 41:30 But we need to know what the logical extent is 41:33 so that when we combat these ideas, 41:35 we know at the genesis what we are actually 41:38 contending against. 41:39 And I'm gonna give you a couple of other examples 41:40 from this piece. 41:44 Sophie Lewis, though, I'm Sir Mary Harrington describing 41:46 Sophie Lewis' writing said quote, 41:48 "'As long as we believe there's a special bond 41:50 between women, gestation, and the desire to care 41:53 for the resulting baby, the sexes can never be 41:56 exactly equal." 41:57 So all these must be eliminated. 42:02 Pause for a second. 42:03 Did you hear what I'm saying? 42:04 I'm gonna read it again. 42:05 As long as we believe that there's a special bond 42:07 between women and gestation, 42:12 y'all want me to translate that for you? 42:14 As long as we believe mommy's have babies. 42:19 And only mommy's can be mothers. 42:22 And mommy's need daddy's to be mommy's. 42:28 She said, we gotta get rid of all of that. 42:32 the transcendent, optimal good of societal egalitarianism. So all of this must be eliminated. 42:44 So in order to accomplish this, quote she suggests, she suggests, we will open a space 42:51 for new communitarian forms of family unconstrained by gender, embodiment, or oppressive bourgeois 42:57 norms. I'm telling you guys, I am telling you. 43:06 And you see, all of this is posited because the family is a system of oppression. 43:14 The first and earliest system of oppression. 43:17 The humanity must be limited, must be liberated from this oppression. 43:21 So in order to liberate humanity from this oppression, we must eliminate the family. 43:26 Now I do recall, what was that? 43:28 What was that three letter organization? 43:30 Oh, yeah, burned loot murder. 43:34 they were using more melanated peoples. 43:39 But many of the peoples who would show up at their rallies 43:42 and shout the three word mantra had no idea 43:45 that their guiding principles say whenever we gather, 43:48 we do so for the express purposes of loosening 43:50 the tight drip of heteronormatives thinking. 43:55 Another one of the guiding principles, 43:56 when we gather we do so because we want 43:59 the systematic destruction of the nuclear family. 44:04 Huh, that doesn't seem to have anything to do 44:07 were more melanated Americans, 44:10 seemed like that's just a repeat 44:13 of the communist manifesto 44:15 that calls for the abolition of the family. 44:22 So you mean to tell me these are different people 44:24 using various issues, 44:26 and they have all the talking points 44:27 and all of the political focus on these issues, 44:29 but the core objectives remain the same 44:31 from Moses Mordecai, Marx, Levy, and Engels? 44:37 You would be right. 44:44 So if Louis goes on to explain 44:46 The whole entire notion of human nature 44:49 is a fabrication in of itself. 44:50 It's nothing more than a social construct. 44:54 There's no such thing as human nature. 44:57 So we need to be liberated from that. 45:03 So if you're Lewis and her full surrogacy now, 45:07 and I wanna give you the full title again, 45:08 full surrogacy now, feminism against family. 45:12 She draws from Shulaman's Firestone, 45:14 whose dialectic of sexist is a book from 1970. 45:17 T'allonies, ideas have been banged, 45:20 about since 1970, envisaged women liberated from reproduction by mechanical gestation and 45:26 a socialized child rearing. 45:31 So if Louis goes on to explore Five Stones Legacy in the work of Donna Haraway, whose 45:35 book titled Cyborg Manifesto from 1985 calls for human machine hybrid visions of personhood 45:43 and feminist liberation to meet the digital age. 45:49 This is argument is not that we should embrace surrogacy 45:52 as practiced under capitalism. 45:56 Rather, she draws on Firestone and Haraway 45:58 to argue that technology enables us to seize 46:01 not just the means of human production, 46:06 but also not just a means of production, 46:08 but also of reproduction for a radical, 46:12 libertarian program. 46:14 And the way to do this is by treating the surrogate 46:18 as a central figure to reproduction. 46:22 Destroy the family, 46:25 destroy God-designed reproduction, 46:28 you know, fruitfulness, multiplication, 46:30 replenishing the earth, 46:32 and replace it all with societally normalized surrogacy. 46:41 So in her mind, with the link quote 46:43 between gestation and womanhood dispatched, 46:45 it becomes easier to denature the supposedly equal 46:51 pre-political bonds of the family. 46:58 Family abolition is an essential project. 47:05 Now pause for a second, 47:08 because when you have this type of ideology 47:10 that this is a logical conclusion that they're going to, 47:13 we don't often see that when you have policies 47:16 that are presented that make fathers irrelevant 47:19 to family life. 47:20 And we wanna have situations, 47:22 I mean, what's wrong with expanding 47:24 the local public schools feeding program? 47:27 What's wrong with expanding that? 47:28 You know, because we don't want children going hungry. 47:31 No, we don't want children going hungry. 47:33 But why is there such a passionate effort 47:34 to have the government replace the role 47:36 that the parents ought to have? 47:39 And so often we have the conversation 47:41 about the school breakfast program, 47:44 then they give them less, 47:45 and then you have the aftercare program, 47:46 but we never get to the, 47:48 what is the ideological core driving these notions? 47:53 People like Sophie Lewis let the cat out of the bag. 47:59 And my friend Jeff Shafer, 48:00 the director of the Hale Institute at the New St. Andrews College, 48:10 he describes that this demolition of the family and this technocratic cyborg feminism 48:17 reduces what is conventionally described as parenting to merely quote, 48:22 provisionally accredited custodians of property on behalf of various stakeholders, 48:29 and ultimately the state. 48:30 And that's how children are viewed more on this as we go forward. 48:34 Preborn celebrates that Roe vs Wade has been overturned. 48:39 Roe has been responsible for the slaughter of over 63 million babies. 48:43 Now the decision to abort a child will be left in the hands of the states 48:48 and sadly abortions will continue in the most liberal states. 48:52 Over the past 16 years, preborn has positioned their clinics in the top 48:57 abortion cities 48:58 where 50% of abortions occur. Preborn's work of saving babies lives continues at an 49:04 even greater level as they save babies' lives and defend their centers from the radical hate 49:09 groups who want to shut them down. 49:12 Preborn's response is dependent on you, the pro-life community. 49:16 Be a part of rescuing lives and changing hearts for Christ. 49:20 $28 sponsors 1 ultrasound and $140 will help to rescue 5 babies' lives. 49:27 Dial pound 250 and say the keyword baby or go to preborn.com. 49:33 All gifts are tax deductible. 49:36 The views and opinions expressed in this broadcast may not necessarily reflect those of the American 49:41 Family Association or American Family Radio.
