0:07This is the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
0:11It should be uncomfortable for a believer to live as a hypocrite.
0:15Delivering people out of the bondage of mainstream media.
0:18And the philosophies of this world.
0:20God has called you and me to be His ambassador.
0:24Even in this dark moment.
0:26Let's not miss our moment.
0:29And now, the Hamilton Corner.
0:33Good evening, everyone.
0:34Welcome to the Hamilton Corner here on American Family Radio.
0:37I am your host, Abraham Hamilton III.
0:40Glad to be back in studio with you.
0:44Wasn't feeling too good yesterday.
0:48My voice still isn't 100% back where I know it needs to be,
0:50but I am grateful to be in studio with you
0:53at this very moment.
0:54Many of you, if not most of you,
0:56are making your transition from your part-time jobs,
0:59where you generate an income to your full-time jobs, where you cultivate an outcome.
1:03And as you do so, I want to remind you to make sure that you make your transition with intentionality,
1:10understanding the primacy that God places on family, your opportunity to participate in it,
1:15because this is the place where we remind you that what goes on in your house is far more important
1:21than what goes on in the White House. I'm joined by the corner contingent, as usual, right across from me,
1:26Hooray — my man 100 grand Mr. Bobby, fross and in the screening room produced extraordinaire
1:32often imitated.
1:33I never duplicated.
1:35Y'all know the drill.
1:37The Real J. MAC… ladies and gentlemen, we're ready to rock and roll with today's edition
1:41of the program, I start to show as I do intentionally.
1:47We'll have a great nation.
1:49We cannot rest on our laurels and sit, in-s spectate, and cheer, hip-hip, hooray.
1:56What has Doge done today?
2:00If we are going to be a great nation, it is going to be the result of what happens in our
2:06homes, what happens in our communities, what happens in our local environments, much of
2:14what has transpired in our nation, that has resulted in the ever expanding Leviathan state
2:20that is national government has occurred because of retrenchments in the family.
2:26God knows every individual, God knows every life circumstance.
2:29He knows the stations and stages of life that we are in.
2:34Nevertheless, the first human institution that God established was the family.
2:40He established the family first with marriage at the center.
2:44He did this intentionally.
2:47He did this intentionally.
2:49Okay.
2:52The family is God's primary mechanism, not exclusive, but primary mechanism
2:57of establishing multi-generational faithfulness to him.
3:01The primary mechanism for establishing his kingdom
3:04generation to generation.
3:07There's a reason,
3:09or let me say it better, this is the reason,
3:12why the scripture bears out the responsibility
3:14for evangelizing,
3:16canochizing and making disciples of the children born into Christian families.
3:20It is the parents.
3:22It is the parents.
3:25All right, there's a reason why God explains
3:28that when he establishes his New Testament Church and communicates that his disciples will be his
3:35witnesses in Jerusalem, in Judea, in the Samaria, to the uttermost parts of the earth is because
3:44he's communicating the fact that there's a locale, there is an immediacy, a proximity, if you will,
3:50where faithfulness is acquired refers. It is, I couldn't believe all of the, you know,
3:56So debating going back and forth when JD Vance said that, well, there's an obligation to your
4:06family first and then to your community.
4:08And people are like, huh, I couldn't believe it.
4:10And this is someone Christian like, are you serious?
4:14Because we have so many people that don't understand, this has helped me see plainly how
4:18we've gotten to where we are.
4:23And so many instances we've confused different things.
4:26My first obligation, guys, biblically, is to my biological family.
4:30It has it prohibit me from serving our Lord by coming on this program and in in
4:36endeavoring to serve him by by investing in the body of Christ throughout our nation.
4:43But nothing I do here eliminates or nullifies the obligation I have to my wife and to my
4:48children.
4:51My wife and my children are my first responsibility.
4:54As much as I love you all, they come before you.
4:58It's just the truth.
5:01doesn't mean that I ignore other outlets, but I must serve them at home first and then into
5:10the community. But man, we've gotten to where we are by launch because we have an increasingly
5:17we have an endemic you want to talk about a metastasizing cancer. There's a metastasizing
5:22cancer of biblical illiteracy in our culture. It was for so long, we've kind of drifted
5:30on the fumes of generations gone by.
5:33And we've arrived at this place where you have so many people
5:37that are critical of Christ following.
5:39And so few people actually know what Jesus actually said.
5:42So few people have actually read the scripture.
5:44So few people will actually read the scripture.
5:47With that in mind, let us read the scripture.
5:52I'm gonna go to Malachi chapter three verse one.
5:54And I'm gonna make a point that extends beyond
5:57the book of Malachi, but the book of Malachi
6:00puts a fine point on this.
6:04Malachi chapter one verse one.
6:08Did I put three verse one on the rundown Jeff?
6:12If I did, that's wrong.
6:13Is one verse one.
6:14I'm sorry, brother.
6:16One verse one is what I meant to put.
6:19I just corrected it in case you're wondering.
6:22Malachi chapter one verse one, it starts very simply.
6:27It says this, the oracle of the word of the Lord to Israel
6:32through Malachi.
6:35The oracle of the word of the Lord to Israel through Malachi,
6:38contrary to what you might have heard in some places.
6:42Malachi is not some Italian prophet named Malachi.
6:47It's Malachi.
6:52I'm pointing you to this text,
6:54because the book of Malachi was written at about 430 BC.
6:57Malachi is a post-exilic prophet,
7:00meaning that he prophesied to the Southern Kingdom of Judah
7:04following the conclusion of Judah's exile,
7:08which began under the Babylonians,
7:09continuing under the Medes and Persians.
7:12All right.
7:14And I'm highlighting this,
7:16and I've said this before in the program,
7:18but I'm gonna emphasize it now
7:19because to truly assess the potency,
7:23the cogency and the depths of the book of Malachi,
7:26it's best to read Malachi in conjunction
7:29with the books of Ezra, Inia Maya, and Zachariah.
7:35All right.
7:36Because Ezra, Inia Maya will post-exilic books.
7:39Zachariah is supposed to go to a post-exilic book as well.
7:43The book of Ezra and the Amiah clearly should be read together.
7:45In some Hebrew manuscripts, they are one book, Ezra and the Amiah.
7:49Okay?
7:52Ezra focused on the reconstruction of the Lord's temple following exile.
7:58Ezra's book includes historical occurrences that transpired prior to Ezra's return to Jerusalem.
8:08So you have the reconstruction of the temple that was finished in about 516 BC. All right.
8:14Then you have Ezra's return that he now has to reintroduce the returned Jews to authentic
8:22Yahweh worship, including temple practices. Ezra was a teaching priest of the high priestly lineage
8:28of Aaron. He was responsible for bringing additional priests back into Jerusalem from exile
8:35because it was some in the Jewish community, the Hebrew community, that their ability even to
8:43converse in the Hebrew language was compromised to a degree. All right? So he's re instituting
8:49authentic Yahweh worship. 13 years after Ezra arrives in Jerusalem, post-exile, Nehemiah arrives.
8:58Nehemiah focuses on the reconstruction of the wall surrounding Jerusalem that had been torn down.
9:10The end of the book of Ezra concludes in a disappointing fashion because Ezra ends up having to confront
9:18many who were of priestly ancestry but that who were living compromised lives.
9:24All right, Nehemiah comes in, helps to rebuild the wall.
9:30We talked about it before with each family attending to the portion right in front of their homes.
9:34They were able to rebuild the wall in 52 days.
9:38Then the book of Nehemiah continues with events following their Malachi ministers as a contemporary of those two.
9:45And he is focusing on again, right worship of Yahweh.
9:52The point I'm illustrating here that I'm endeavoring to illustrate is when you consider the entirety of events,
9:57you know, Cyrus's decree, the Persian King Cyrus's decree, allowing the Jews to return to Judah at about 538 BC.
10:06The struggles in reconstructing the temple, the long pause, the long hiatus, the 15-year hiatus,
10:14then through the prophetic words of like Hagai and Zechariah, there's a zeal that returns to rebuild the Lord's temple.
10:21Then after the temple is rebuilt, you have to teach the people again the Mosaic covenant.
10:29All of these things, these things, these things happening in the decades that are transpiring,
10:33from 538 BC to 430 BC.
10:38Almost a century later, you see Yahweh still sending his power prophets to enable his people
10:44to worship him rightly post-exile.
10:49And then we know the book of Malachi is what introduces us to the intertestamental period
10:55between the closing of the Old Testament period and the introduction of the New Testament period.
11:01But when you see that entire time span, it communicates something profound to me, and I
11:08want to submit it to you, and that is the necessity of there being faithfulness in each
11:16generation.
11:17All right.
11:19This didn't all happen in one moment.
11:22This didn't all take place in four years.
11:25And I've been saying, and I will continue to say
11:27that God has blessed our nation with a reprieve
11:30by aiding us to avoid she who shall never be president
11:33or remix.
11:35But the question I've been consistently asking
11:37our audience here is what will we do with it?
11:40And what I want to add to the considerations
11:43is that each of us has the ability
11:46to contribute to what our nation will be going forward.
11:50as far as it pertains to you, as far as far as it pertains to me, we have say so as to
11:59what our nation will be. Yes, that say so includes our civic participation in our constitutional
12:05republic with by voting, but I will simply tell you that that is one of the lowest levels
12:13of our say so, lowest not meaning to diminish it in its significance, but I'm saying lowest
12:19levels in terms of our investment, our sweat equity, if you will, you know, the
12:26season saying she used to talk to me when I was growing up about sweat equity.
12:32What kind of nation will we be?
12:35What kind of county will you live in?
12:36What kind of family will you have?
12:38You have say so over that over that.
12:45I have say so over what type of investment I will make into my home, into my
12:51family, into my workplace, into my community.
12:54You know, if you have a situation where, you know, man, all that happens at work is just gossip
13:03and worldliness.
13:04Well, my question to you is, what are you going to do about it?
13:09You know, you know how the conversations are around the water cooler.
13:11No, I don't know how they are.
13:12If you're at the water cooler, then the conversation should have a different tone and tenor to it.
13:16But I'm saying, looking at these guys, looking at, you know, Ezra and Nehemiah, we can go
13:25all the way back, we can go to Daniel and his friends, Hannah and I, Azariah, Ms.
13:29We can go further beyond that.
13:30We can talk about Hadassa and the resolution that she made.
13:34And you'll find that the consistent evidence from scripture is that the Lord requires faithfulness
13:40in each generation.
13:41And he could do whatever he wants to do it, but he's chosen to do so through people.
13:47A simple question today is, will you be one of the people that God, that God goes public
13:55through?
13:56Will you be one of the people who will resolve it in your heart to be a vehicle through?
14:02the witness of our God will be made evident through your life.
14:06Will I be?
14:07I can tell you I want to be.
14:09And by God's grace, I'm committing myself to be.
14:14But for far too long, many of our fellow citizens
14:18have been willing to kind of sit on the bench of life
14:21and watch other people doing things,
14:24maybe critique here and there, maybe complain here and there,
14:27but not necessarily getting too involved.
14:29And I'm simply saying the time for that is over.
14:31You have say so.
14:33What type of community you will live in.
14:35You will live in. You have say so.
14:36Of what type of family you will be a part of.
14:38You have say so. Of what type of nation this will be.
14:40What will your contribution be?
14:44The seats and thanks you should say,
14:45everybody is responsible for putting their own log on the altar.
14:51Say like Joshua, that's for me and my house.
14:55We'll put our logs on the altar.
15:00A discipleship minute with Joseph Parker.
15:04Prayerlessness.
15:05What exactly is prayerlessness?
15:08Well, that's the failure to really pray as we should.
15:12When we don't pray, we can miss things God is saying to us and God is doing in and around us.
15:20When we don't pray, we miss blessings God very much wants us to have. It's a challenging area of
15:27life for probably many if not most believers. The failure to pray, you know, the Word of God
15:32tells us in 1st the Sonal and Shep 5 it says, Pray without ceasing. How in the world do we really
15:38do that, well keep in mind, God wouldn't tell us to do something we could not do.
15:42God tells us time and time again to do things that we can only do in His wisdom, in His power,
15:47and in His grace.
15:48Now, I want to say and challenge every listener to really think about this.
15:53It's important that we live a life full of prayer.
16:06Shiting light into the darkness, this is the Hamilton Corner, an American family radio.
16:12Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham, Hamilton III.
16:15here I am looking forward to this weekend getting to see all of you who will be at the
16:21double date night.
16:23It's going to be an amazing time there.
16:24Let me also mention as I have been mentioning before March 1st, that is a Saturday afternoon
16:31at 5.30 p.m.
16:32I will be joining the Garrett Memorial Christian School for their gala.
16:35I was talking debate with Jamie.
16:38You say gala or gala?
16:40Gala?
16:42For their gala.
16:43I might say gala tomorrow.
16:44You never know.
16:45But if you would like to come, you are invited to do so.
16:49All you have to do is go to GMCS Gala 2025.eventright.com
16:58to get your registration in.
17:00I'm really looking forward to being there.
17:02I won't get into it now, but I really believe,
17:08I know that the Lord has impressed something on my heart
17:10to share at this event, to support our family,
17:15really members of our eternal family.
17:17And I say this, guys, not because I think it gives you the woman fuzzies.
17:21I say this because it is true.
17:23The concept of Christ followers being brothers and sisters is not my idea.
17:28That is how we are described in Scripture.
17:31God by a sovereign grace defines or describes his body as the household of faith and the
17:37household of God.
17:38So when we talk to, and I say, my brother so and so and so and my sister so and so, I mean
17:42that.
17:43I have biological relatives, but I have members of, but I'm a member of the eternal family
17:47of God. And so I get excited about the opportunity to spend time with and participate in co-labor
17:54with my brothers and sisters in the faith with whom I will spend eternity in our temporal engagements
18:02and being salt and light. And so I look forward to doing that and going back to this will be
18:08my second time and hope Arkansas to do that is something that I'm looking forward to.
18:13So if you'd like to have your face in the place, please do not hesitate to register to
18:16be March 1st at 5.30 p.m. in Hope, Arkansas, Garrett Memorial Christian School.
18:22You do not want to miss out on this event.
18:25All right.
18:26We're going to jump right into the deep end right from the beginning of the show.
18:29A few moments before I came on to the program, President Trump was in the Oval Office with
18:39Elon Musk, who has become, you know, enemy, public enemy number one, you know.
18:45When the bottom line is, the regressives despise him because they can't do anything about it.
18:51You know, I don't yet know Elon Musk.
18:53I don't believe he is a believer in the faith.
18:56One of the major things that is motivating his fight against regresiveness is because
19:03he had a son who the mother of his son was deceived by the spirit of the age in terms
19:11of trans insanity and they transitioned his son.
19:16He literally said that they killed my son and he said it in this turn because to refer
19:21to his son by the name that he named him when he was born, that that's considered to be a
19:25quote unquote dead name.
19:28So he said they said my son's name is dead now.
19:32And so that's a part of the things that is that is that's one of the major things that's
19:37motivating.
19:38Elon Musk, in addition to his financial sense.
19:42And I saw Alexandria occasional cortex,
19:45trying to talk about Elon Musk is the dumbest
19:47billion that she's ever seen.
19:48I was just like, okay, man.
19:52And I'm not trying to shade anybody.
19:54But let's just put apples and oranges on the scale.
19:58Shall we?
19:59Occasional cortex, bartender.
20:04Elon Musk, rockets.
20:08Shall I continue?
20:12I mean, come on, man.
20:13Like you can say you disagree with the dude, but to say that he's dumb is that that is just objectively not only false, but ridiculous.
20:23Okay.
20:25I say all the time, they're people who I disagree with, they're aggressive in their orientation in their ideology.
20:30They're intelligent.
20:31They're hardware.
20:32They have their their mental capacity.
20:35Their intellectual capacity is amazing.
20:38But it's a software.
20:39That's the problem.
20:40The worldview is whacked.
20:42Their beliefs are horrendous.
20:44So I'm saying all this to say, if you can say you disagree
20:49with the guy, but to say that he's not smart,
20:53it's just, it's just foolish why y'all are riding around
20:56in the cars that he makes.
20:59Y'all driving Teslas talking about Elon Musk is not smart.
21:02I mean, just whatever, all right.
21:04So Elon Musk a few moments ago was in the White House
21:08in the Oval Office in particular.
21:11And this is the real reason why they hate him.
21:13I'm not gonna even give you any more setup than that.
21:16This, if you wanna know, and I want you to save
21:19this video in this audio. Share with your friends. Share this program with your friends, family,
21:24and loved ones. Look, I can handle it. I'm a big boy. Like, hey, did I not go like you?
21:28That's okay. That's okay. You know, I wish I could tell you the number of stories that
21:33I've heard from people saying, I came across your program and I hated what you had to
21:37say. I couldn't believe I despised what you had to say, but I kept listening. And now
21:45I realized and you make a lot of sense.
21:49I didn't believe the stuff that you was saying
21:50and then I started checking it out.
21:52Then I realized, oh man, he is telling the truth.
21:55So share it especially with the loved ones and friends
21:58and coworkers and associates that you don't expect to agree
22:03because with something that invariably occurs
22:07is that they continue to listen.
22:08And then over time, by God's grace, over time,
22:12things tend to change.
22:14But getting back to the conversation at the moment,
22:17All of the protest and you know, I had to laugh
22:21because Chuck Schumer is gonna start his own whistleblower
22:23service, you know?
22:24He created a portal.
22:26This is where you need to go to report people
22:27and people start reporting him
22:29for his threats to the Supreme Court.
22:30Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
22:33This is why they have a problem with Elon Musk
22:38and what he's doing through the United States Doge service.
22:43Listen to and watch clip number three.
22:45Clip number three, go.
22:47Right.
22:48Well, we do find it sort of rather odd that, you know, there are quite a few people in the
22:59bureaucracy who have a sensibly salary of a few hundred thousand dollars, but somehow
23:04managed to accrue tens of millions of dollars in net worth, but while they are in that position,
23:10which is, you know, what happened to USAID, we're just curious as to where it came from.
23:14I think the reality is that they're getting wealthier to tax pay expense.
23:31That's the honest truth to it.
23:33So we're looking at say, well, we just-
23:39That's what they don't want to be exposed.
23:45They're lifelong bureaucrats who ostensibly make, you know, their salaries are a couple
23:51thousand, a couple thousand dollars annually, but a couple thousand dollars, a hundred thousand
23:58here, but ostensibly they become wealthy.
24:02And it could be that they're just amazing investors.
24:06They could be.
24:09Or you know, I must say they're playing, it was more likely that they're getting wealthy
24:13of the taxpayers' expense.
24:16And we just want to know where it's coming from.
24:18I explained to you guys before in the previous program, the reason why you know, I must cast
24:21this where we're thought to do it is because of those service is not a creation of a new
24:26executive branch agency.
24:27It's the repurposing of an existing agency with the additional authority, legal authority
24:34from an IT standpoint to evaluate transactions and communications.
24:39And so this is going to go through and again, AOC saying it's not smart, you know, but the
24:44about pointed out.
24:46Yeah, he's launching rockets and he's figured out
24:48how to relay into his own booster.
24:50Ain't nobody ever done that before.
24:54Nobody, and of course he has engineers
24:55that are working with him,
24:56but sure, I'm sure that people that are intellectually
25:02diminish, they don't have the way without a...
25:04This is the reason why they're scared of Elon Musk.
25:11This is the reason, because there are lots of people
25:13who've talked about it for years
25:14Like the things that the dough service exposed about USAID.
25:18All right.
25:19Lots of people have known about it.
25:22How come nobody's ever done anything about it?
25:24I'm talking on both sides of the aisles.
25:27You know, you had, you know, the Clintons getting rich through USAID.
25:31You had, you had family members of Whistle Girl, Liz Cheney, the Cheney family, getting money
25:38through AID, the Bush family, the Obamas.
25:44You know, a lot of people didn't realize it.
25:46Barack Obama's mother was on USAID's payroll for decades.
25:51And done them.
25:52Look it up.
25:54Uh-huh.
25:55One more time for the people in the back.
25:57Barack Hussein Obama's mama.
25:59Put it in a rap song.
26:00Obama's mama.
26:01Obama's mama.
26:02Obama's mama.
26:03Obama's mama.
26:04Obama's mama.
26:05Obama's mama.
26:06Was on the payroll for USAID.
26:10Lots of people knew about it and nobody had done anything
26:11about it.
26:12Why?
26:13They hadn't.
26:16Who let the doze out?
26:18Oof, oof, oof.
26:21They don't want this to go forward
26:23because when you start looking up under rocks in DC,
26:29you start to find grubs.
26:30You like, Timonimo, well, grub.
26:32Timonimo and Poom, but they're gonna find grubs.
26:35How is it that you make $105,000,
26:38you've been in DC for five years,
26:40now you're worth 15 million.
26:41Somebody's displaying that to me.
26:43Somebody's displaying that to me.
26:45You know, you roll up in here, like this.
26:51A lot of people forget, remember when,
26:53when Mr. Joseph Robin Ed Biden, when he did,
26:56was elevator was going all the way upstairs.
26:58And he threatened Ukraine by saying,
27:00you're not getting a billion unless you fired a prosecutor.
27:03You know what a billion came from?
27:05$1 billion in USAID loan guarantees.
27:09Did you know that?
27:11That's what it was.
27:13See people, people.
27:15Oh man.
27:17And this is why I'm intentionally saying USAID, by the way.
27:20Because a lot of people trying to say USAID,
27:21you get this false idea that USAID exists to provide aid in no no USAID is United States
27:29agency for international development that that is what the acronym is for and so Donald Trump he
27:42letting the dojo you know much and we're gonna look to see we just want to make sure this is legit
27:48are they scamming the taxpayers and look and if it's legit it's legit I personally don't have any
27:54problem with anybody making money, getting wealthy. I think it's a positive for people,
28:00especially Godly people, to be well resourced to accomplish God's will. And I know you have
28:04wicked people that are well resourced, but being well resourced in and of itself is not
28:11a problem. I don't have any problem with that. You know what? I have a problem with liars.
28:15You don't have a problem with thieves. I have a problem with people who are working in governmental
28:21positions and those like you and me who work an entire quarter of the year to pay off our
28:29annual tax bills.
28:31You realize that?
28:33Many of us will work in four months out of a year solely to pay our tax obligations.
28:43So if you're wondering, look Bobby, smile, why are you smiling over there, Bobby?
28:49How are you guys having a show within the show?
28:53If you're wondering why they're afraid, this is why they're afraid because they recognize
28:57for a role is one thing to speak bombastically in campaign terms.
29:02It's another thing to actually try to deliver on those promises.
29:05It seems evident President Trump is moving to deliver on the promises.
29:11Another thing again, and this is why I endeavor to do the programs that I do because you have
29:20these unions, federal employee unions who filed a lawsuit to stop President Trump's federal
29:29employee buyback program.
29:30They are calling it now the Fork and the Road program.
29:35Well the federal judge has now, US District Judge, George L. Tool, heard oral arguments
29:40yesterday concerning the legality of President Trump's offer and has extended the deadline,
29:47which was scheduled to be this Thursday for federal employees to accept the buyout.
29:53And remember what the terms are.
29:54The terms are return to full time work in the office or accept the buyout, which will
30:04provide eight months of your salary and benefits and you go on your merry way.
30:10That those are the terms.
30:13Well, federal unions represented by a Democrat front group called Democracy Forward, this
30:21is rich.
30:22They're saying President Trump's buyback program and the buyback offer quote,
30:28violates the Anti-Deficiency Act, which get this is rich already. Look, I'm about to tell you,
30:32Bob, you about to fall out of your chair laughing. The unions are saying that President Trump's
30:38buyback offer violates the Anti-Deficiency Act, which bars the government from spending
30:44beyond its appropriations and using money for purposes other than intended. That's a quote.
30:51Oh, so now there's a concern about federal spending.
31:00Yes, that's called deficit spending.
31:03Yes, that's the concern.
31:05Their arguments are, well, Congress has not appropriated funds to accomplish this type of
31:10program and this would certainly violate.
31:13I'm like, so now y'all have a problem with spending.
31:17You never want a serious crisis in a way.
31:19I never would have thought, can Mr. Rosa.
31:23The federal employee unions would come across spending that they did not like.
31:30I kid you not, this is what was argued in oral arguments.
31:33I'm going to read it again.
31:35Quote, the federal government's offer violates the Anti-Deficiency Act which bars the government
31:42from spending beyond its appropriations and using money for purposes other than intended.
31:47In quote, that's what you're going to win.
31:58Oh my gosh.
32:00Of course, the Trump administration has mentioned that tens of thousands of federal employees have
32:05already accepted the buyout.
32:07And the Trump administration is welcome to accept the extension of time, giving more federal
32:13employees the opportunities to weigh the offer.
32:15And the offer stands as it is.
32:18Come back to work full time in the office or you can accept the buyout.
32:26But you cannot continue to work for primarily remotely and still get paid as a federal employee.
32:34That does not seem like an unreasonable request.
32:40So it's interesting to me that now spending beyond appropriations and repurposing money
32:48is a problem.
32:50What happened to Social Security?
32:52Aren't they using that money for anything they want?

33:35Hamilton Quarter podcast and one-minute commentaries are available at aFR.net back to the Hamilton
33:42Quarter on American Family Radio.
33:46Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham Hamilton III here.
33:49Many of you probably heard about President Trump's executive order.
33:52No more paper straws.
33:56Yes, he's out of the executive order.
33:58No more paper straws for federal government purchase.
34:01And again, like if you guys ever had to be compelled to drink out of a paper straw, and
34:10It's like, you know, when I travel from America to Washington, DC, I always make sure I keep
34:16my passport with me.
34:18Casey didn't want to let me back in to America.
34:21It's always just smacking the faces to what happens.
34:29You try to go out to eat and they give you a drink and they put a straw in it and you literally
34:32have two good sips.
34:33And the next thing you know, you're going to be fishing, what you thought was the stuff
34:39that your straw came in.
34:40She realized, oh, no, it's my strong disintegrating
34:43into my water, with no ice, we're limiting it.
34:49I'm like, this is so dumb.
34:51What? This is so dumb.
34:56Why are we doing things like this?
34:57And then, no, man, I never get into a grocery store.
35:01What a concept in Washington, DC.
35:04And I wanted to check out the groceries,
35:05and I was like, oh, you have to pay for the bags.
35:07I mean, what?
35:08What? What?
35:10What? You gotta pay for the bags.
35:13So you gotta buy your bags to cart your,
35:17and they're doing all of this in the name
35:18of the environment, it's insane.
35:23And again, I am not a fan of executive orders
35:27being the primary mechanism for government.
35:31There also needs to be a calibration with common sense.
35:33All right, you put paper in liquid,
35:36the paper will dissolve, okay?
35:41Or I'm gonna have to be like speed race
35:43or to drink my drink.
35:48That is just insanity.
35:49And then, and then, and I, and I shared, I alluded to this.
35:52I didn't get to finish making this point.
35:54I shared what I shared about a previous program.
35:56This is why I brought out to you the fact that, you know,
36:00Bill Clinton did a federal employee buyback program.
36:03And you didn't see anybody protesting,
36:05saying it's unconstitutional,
36:07all that you have to follow lawsuit to happen.
36:10And it like I read headlines like this from NBC News, NBC News.
36:13Judge extends freeze on Trump's unprecedented plan
36:17to get millions of federal workers that resign.
