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. 0:28And now the Hamilton Corner.
11. 0:33Good evening, everyone.
12. 0:35Welcome to the Hamilton Corner here on American Family Radio.
13. 0:38I am your host, Abraham Hamilton III.
14. 0:42Joined by the corner contingent.
15. 0:44Welcome also to the NRB TV audience.
16. 0:48Everyone who's tuning into the program,
17. 0:51the radio listeners, podcast listeners, television show
18. 0:55watchers, everybody, live streamers.
19. 0:59Welcome to the program.
20. 1:00I am grateful to be with you another day.
21. 1:04I am joined by the corner contingent.
22. 1:07I don't know if I said I'm the host of the program,
23. 1:09Abraham Hamilton III. Did I say that?
24. 1:12I'm on track.
25. 1:14Hey, I didn't have to put my PF flyers on
26. 1:16to get them in the studio today.
27. 1:18Would you love that, Jeff?
28. 1:22Speaking of Jeff, I'm joined by the corner contingent.
29. 1:24I do it in reverse order today in the screening room
30. 1:26we have produced extraordinaire.
31. 1:30I don't care what y'all say, the baddest man in the land.
32. 1:33It's the truth.
33. 1:34Mr. J. Mac is in the building.
34. 1:36Oh, oh, oh, that's what J. Mac, I thought that was a time
35. 1:42homing.
36. 1:43We then expanded the utilization of the audio.
37. 1:48I see.
38. 1:49And right across from me, my man 100 grand.
39. 1:51Mr. Bobby.
40. 1:52R-R-R-R-R-R-R-R-R-R-R
41. 1:54outside.
42. 1:55We are ready to roll with today's program.
43. 1:59At this very moment many of you, if not most of you are making your transition from your part-time jobs,
44. 2:06where you generate an income to your full-time jobs where you cultivate an outcome.
45. 2:11And as you do so, I want to remind you to make your moves with intentionality,
46. 2:17understanding and embracing the primacy that God places on family,
47. 2:22Recognizing that every single one of us has the exact same 24 hours in the day.
48. 2:28We obviously need the time to rest, to refuel our bodies.
49. 2:32There's a reason why God granted us a day of rest and made it an instruction in this holy word.
50. 2:39We would be wise, wise to implement that in our own lives.
51. 2:46But as a result of being captured by the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords,
52. 2:51continuing the reflection and celebration of our Lord's resurrection, the greatest way
53. 2:57to celebrate our Lord's resurrection is obeying what He commanded us.
54. 3:01That's the greatest way to celebrate.
55. 3:03That He is risen. Say it loudly and proudly. He is risen indeed.
56. 3:09And live it loudly and proudly He is risen indeed.
57. 3:13When we've seen the King as He's rightly to be seen, everything about our lives change.
58. 3:20Everything about our lives change.
59. 3:25the way we navigate uncertainty and difficulty changes because we are now
60. 3:29on board the ship captains by the Prince of Peace. As you see the utter insanity swirling all around us,
61. 3:40you know, you have the Supreme Court over the weekend weighing into a case that was pending before
62. 3:44the Fifth Circuit. How do you do that? You know, you have, and I was thinking about this on my way
63. 3:50walking to the studio today. You remember Occupy Wall Street? And then all of a sudden it's just
64. 3:58Disappear.
65. 3:59The next thing you know, folks are showing up at the world economic forum.
66. 4:05And then we went from occupying Wall Street to making sure Wall Street and getting that
67. 4:09money.
68. 4:13Interesting how that happened, how Occupy Wall Street just disappeared.
69. 4:16But I'm sure it was a true grassroots movement.
70. 4:24Lige trash and garbage.
71. 4:25It was not.
72. 4:29You have paid agitators who are literally working to advance a Marxist agenda in the United
73. 4:38States of America. Because among the nations of the world, the United States of America still to
74. 4:42this date with all of our problems stands as an outlier on our planet in terms of a nation with
75. 4:52potency that hasn't already. Conan, that's right, Pamela, totally organic. I mean, it had to stamp
76. 4:59and everything on it, you know?
77. 5:03To the Word of God, we go.
78. 5:04Word of God, we go.
79. 5:08I'm going to invite you guys into my own
80. 5:12meditations upon the Lord's Word today.
81. 5:14In James chapter 1, James chapter 1 verses 1 through 5,
82. 5:18and I'm also going to mention verse 12.
83. 5:21If you've been following this program for any length of time,
84. 5:25you know, we've talked about the book of James.
85. 5:28You have extra biblical affirmation
86. 5:31into who James was the natural brother of Jesus, the biological offspring of Joseph and Mary,
87. 5:40who did not become a convert to being a disciple of Christ a follower of the way until Christ
88. 5:47resurrected.
89. 5:49Josephus wrote in his Antiquities of the Jews which was an attempt to provide an accurate
90. 5:55chronicling of Jewish history that compelled him to write about what was initially viewed
91. 6:01to be another sect of Judaism, which was just simply that follows of the way who later identified
92. 6:07as Christians in Acts chapter 11. Josephus recorded James' moniker as James the just.
93. 6:17You have the Christian historian, Eusebius, who writes later, who describes James' ultimate
94. 6:26martyrdom as he was on his knees praying that the Lord God above would open the eyes of the
95. 6:34Jewish people to recognize Yeshua was in fact and is in fact the Messiah.
96. 6:40You see this as the additional communication of a nickname for James as
97. 6:45old camel knees because he prayed so much. The book of James is dated by scholars
98. 6:52in about the mid-40s AD, certainly because of its text prior to the Jerusalem
99. 6:58Council which takes place in about 50 AD. But the Apostle James writes these
100. 7:03words that I would commend to you for your heartfelt consideration. That's right.
101. 7:10Occupy Wall Street, they disappeared anymore. If they're exactly right, because that's what
102. 7:15Marxists do. Another iteration that Occupy Wall Street focuses with Black Lives Matter
103. 7:21organization. Same agenda. You look at the here, agenda, not bringing principle to have
104. 7:25the exact same agenda, regardless of the name of the group. La-ra-size another one,
105. 7:29you know, back to the Word of God. James chapter 1 verses 1 through 5 is what I'm
106. 7:35I'm gonna read first.
107. 7:36And then I'm gonna mention verse 12 as well.
108. 7:38The Apostle James says this,
109. 7:39James, a bond servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ.
110. 7:48To the, had the sneeze, excuse me,
111. 7:54to the 12 tribes who are dispersed abroad, greetings,
112. 7:59consider it all joy, my brethren,
113. 8:03when you encounter various trials,
114. 8:07knowing that the testing of your faith
115. 8:11produces endurance and let endurance have its perfect result so that you may be perfect and
116. 8:22complete, lacking nothing.
117. 8:25But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God who gives to all generously and without
118. 8:34reproach and it will be given to him.
119. 8:37first thing I want to mention, what a tremendous phenomenon that we have recorded right for
120. 8:46us in scripture, that you have a man who grew up in the home with a person that he recognized
121. 8:52as his older brother, and yet he introduces his epistle by recognizing the man he grew up
122. 8:59in the home with as his Lord.
123. 9:03Now, if you have siblings, I have siblings.
124. 9:07I have three sisters and two brothers.
125. 9:13My older brother popped off talking about,
126. 9:15hey, you do know I'm the Messiah.
127. 9:20Let's just say it wouldn't be met with a document
128. 9:24of me referring to him as my Lord and me as his do-loce
129. 9:28in the Greek state.
130. 9:30You have that in the scripture,
131. 9:34that James came to the point of recognizing
132. 9:38the man whom he shared a home with as Messiah.
133. 9:44Oh my goodness. In addition to having five other siblings, I have six children of my own.
134. 9:52I'll just cut right to the taste. I don't imagine any of them referring to their older brother as
135. 10:00Messiac. Verse two, consider it all joy, my brother. This is an articulation that can only be made from
136. 10:15and comprehended by maturity in Christ.
137. 10:20Because our natural inclination is not to when we hit rough spots,
138. 10:26rejoice in our Lord always and again I say.
139. 10:32No, that's not the response.
140. 10:34And Jameson said that we needed to have this exuberant, emotional,
141. 10:39expressive phenomenon. He said, considerate, all jewel.
142. 10:44That is an internal, mental deliberation and consideration that happens in the hidden man of the heart.
143. 10:51Consider it all joy.
144. 10:53And then James explains why.
145. 10:55Not because the trial itself is joy, provoking, enjoying, inducing.
146. 11:02No.
147. 11:03Because of what it says in verse three.
148. 11:08Knowing that the trial of your faith, the testing of your faith, what does it produce?
149. 11:17The reason why this assertion is made from maturity and comprehended by maturity, because
150. 11:23when we have the encounter, it requires us to consider prayerfully and by the grace of
151. 11:30God by his spirit to consider beyond the immediacy of the moment, but to consider what the moment
152. 11:42can produce and to consider who is the divine orchestra conductor of our lives as we endeavor
153. 11:51to follow Him. The considering it all joy can only transpire when we think about who's leading us
154. 12:00and what is the product of Him leading us in our own lives. Because of the endurance that is produced,
155. 12:10because of our King's desire for us to be perfected. Again, note that the word perfect there when it
156. 12:18it says in verse four, that you may be perfect and complete lacking in nothing.
157. 12:23The perfection is not the humanistic English understanding of an absence of error.
158. 12:28No, it is the Greek word, teleoise, which means matured, which means the
159. 12:35maturation is transpiring.
160. 12:40So because we recognize the one who's leading, who is the conductor of this
161. 12:46Orchestra. It causes us to move beyond the immediacy of what we are experiencing, the feelings, the emotions, the perception, and immediately refocus our attention back on the one who is the giver of life.
162. 13:00Then it gives us a tool that we employ. A tool that we employ as we face the trials of various sorts, the difficulty of various types.
163. 13:13But if any of you lacks wisdom, let them ask of God.
164. 13:18One thing that I believe is often missed in this text is that the apostle James is directing us by the Spirit of God to specifically ask God for wisdom in navigating the particular trial that we are facing.
165. 13:31This, of course, we should ask the wisdom generally, but James has given us tools to navigate the particular trial to enable us to nestle ourselves in to a posture that will enable us to consider the truth.
166. 13:45trial, joy producing, joy provoking.
167. 13:50Because in the face of it, we can go to the one who is the
168. 13:54fount of all wisdom. Lord, how do I navigate this? What I know,
169. 13:59you don't do anything haphazardly. I know you don't do anything
170. 14:01superfluously. Well, this is an intense reality that I'm facing.
171. 14:05This hurts in this particular way. This is challenging in this
172. 14:08particular way. Lord, how do I navigate this? And James reminds
173. 14:11us that if you lack wisdom, ask of God, and he gives generously
174. 14:16without reproach.
175. 14:19And then we have this incentive in verse 12,
176. 14:21blessed is the man who perseveres under trial.
177. 14:27But once he's been approved,
178. 14:28for once he's been tried,
179. 14:29he'll receive the crown of life,
180. 14:31which the Lord has promised to those who love him.
181. 14:33The challenge is to refuse to allow the intensity
182. 14:36of the trial to dislodge us from the truth that we know.
183. 14:42And truth ultimately,
184. 14:43not being in accumulation of facts and figures,
185. 14:45but truth ultimately being a person.
186. 14:47That is how we can navigate this
187. 14:50and have the assertion from maturity
188. 14:52to walk in maturity that enables us
189. 14:54to consider it all joy when we face challenges.
190. 15:01A discipleship minute with Joseph Parker.
191. 15:04The Ten Commandments are the moral law of God.
192. 15:08Well, that's Old Testament.
193. 15:10We'll keep in mind the moral law of God does not change.
194. 15:14And the fact is some of the biggest challenges
195. 15:16we're dealing with in our culture, in our world today,
196. 15:19our direct result of people violating
197. 15:22the clear counsel of the Ten Commandments.
198. 15:25We think of the tragedy of abortion.
199. 15:27The Bible clearly tells us you shall not murder.
200. 15:31God's word is so clear.
201. 15:33Did you know murder is never in order
202. 15:36under any circumstances,
203. 15:37not through abortion or through any other means,
204. 15:39yet sadly we live in a world that tries to say,
205. 15:42well under certain circumstances, murder is okay.
206. 15:45Many try to say that one of those circumstances is because of abortion.
207. 15:50Remember God's word does not change and it's important that we as the people of God are
208. 15:55clear, boldly clear on that reality.
209. 16:05Shiting lightning to the darkness, this is the Hamilton Corner, an American family radio.
210. 16:11Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham Hamilton III.

231. 17:11I was told that they're uploading the dates by quarter.
232. 17:16So stay tuned there as well.
233. 17:19Okay.
234. 17:22I had this story in my stack yesterday
235. 17:24and now I know why,
236. 17:26Lord didn't let me get to it yesterday
237. 17:29because the oral arguments for this case
238. 17:32took place today before the United States Supreme Court.
239. 17:34Yep, that same Supreme Court.
240. 17:40That jumped into a case
241. 17:41that hadn't even been appealed to the US Supreme Court yet.
242. 17:45Concerning immigration.
243. 17:47But what am I talking about?
244. 17:49Back in 2023,
245. 17:51The largest public school district in Maryland, the Montgomery public school district rescinded
246. 17:59a policy that it had previously adopted.
247. 18:04The Montgomery public school district allows faith-based and religious opt-outs in its curricula
248. 18:13for all sorts of circumstances.
249. 18:16They allow opt-outs for religious concerns about musical performances, dissections of
250. 18:22certain animal carcasses, even high school
251. 18:27sex education classes, they allow for opt-outs.
252. 18:32This is the Montgomery Public School District in Maryland.
253. 18:36All right. Then you had a group of parents of elementary school-aged children.
254. 18:47I want you to hear me very well when I tell you this.
255. 18:50elementary school age children as young as five years old. The Montgomery Public
256. 18:59School District adopted a policy to where LGBTQIAP plus I heard they now at MS 13 to that acronym.
257. 19:13That's a Babylon B item. I didn't come up with that the Babylon B is in love with that.
258. 19:16The books that the Montgomery Public School District required as a matter of policy for
259. 19:30storybook learning.
260. 19:32These are picture books for elementary school-age children, books that include titles like Pride
261. 19:39Puppy, picture books about sex workers, you know, all kinds of deviant behavior that I
262. 19:49I won't even begin to explain,
263. 19:51but you got animated, graphically illustrated,
264. 19:54picture books for elementary school age children.
265. 19:58Well, parents in the school district
266. 20:00said they wanted to opt out from this.
267. 20:03They don't want their children taught this.
268. 20:05The parents includes Christians,
269. 20:07it includes Muslims, it includes Ukrainian Orthodox Christians.
270. 20:12And the school district said,
271. 20:14okay, we'll allow you to opt out.
272. 20:18Well, the parents waited for a year to be notified
273. 20:21that they could opt their children out.
274. 20:25And then the school district said,
275. 20:26you know what we changed our minds.
276. 20:29We don't wanna allow any, hear this guys,
277. 20:32we don't wanna allow any elementary school age children
278. 20:35to be opted out of this curriculum.
279. 20:39They have to be in class
280. 20:41and participate in these books being read.
281. 20:43We don't care nothing about your first amendment concerns,
282. 20:46parents.
283. 20:49Did I mention these elementary school children?
284. 20:54See what you need to understand, parents.
285. 20:56Oh, I forgot, the policy decision was made
286. 20:58by the school district because they felt
287. 21:02it was more important to offer inclusive instruction
288. 21:06for their children than it was to respect first amendment, right?
289. 21:11Did y'all hear what I just said to you?
290. 21:13Mm-hmm.
291. 21:15It was more important for them to have an inclusive curriculum.
292. 21:22Now you know what they mean by inclusive, right?
293. 21:25Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
294. 21:30So they said, we ain't let nobody opt out anymore.
295. 21:32Nobody can opt out.
296. 21:34I don't care about your religious concerns.
297. 21:35Now remember, they still have opt out
298. 21:36so high school sex ed, you can have opt out some music,
299. 21:40you can have opt out even religious dissection,
300. 21:43but you cannot opt out of this.
301. 21:46Now some of you guys who remember when I told you
302. 21:49that former Justice Stephen Breyer
303. 21:51let the cat out of the bag when he offered his descent
304. 21:53in the Carson versus making case out of Maine,
305. 21:58When he said the reason why we support public schools
306. 22:00to track tax dollars because they are the primary
307. 22:03values transmission system to preserve our system
308. 22:07of government, you remember that?
309. 22:09Here you have the Montgomery Public School District
310. 22:14saying the exact same thing.
311. 22:16Oh, parents y'all have values,
312. 22:17but when they come over here, when they come over here,
313. 22:21our values are more important than your values.
314. 22:25Because we transmit values over here of inclusivity.
315. 22:28Okay, what you believe you can't opt out force the parents think about this guys force the parents to get lawyers
316. 22:36to get lawyers
317. 22:39To sue the school district now before I even get into the legal side of this
318. 22:43Can you imagine the impact on the children in the school?
319. 22:47Amongst the children, but also their perception amongst the teachers. I'm not saying all
320. 22:54But can you imagine oh yeah, you know that's as well Johnny over there
321. 23:00his parents, he can't read the book.
322. 23:03Think about this.
323. 23:13The school district determined that its policy is that their values of inclusion are more
324. 23:19important than the parents' religious objections.
325. 23:23Did you all hear what I say?
326. 23:24So the parents sue in the United States District Court in Maryland, and guess what?
327. 23:32They lose in the lower courts.
328. 23:34The appellate court, in the two to one decision, the appellate court rule that the parents who
329. 23:40who had religious objections to this instruction,
330. 23:42they lose because just because their children
331. 23:48are exposed to these, this is, guys,
332. 23:50this is in the opinion from the Pelicoid.
333. 23:52Just because the children are exposed to these ideas
334. 23:55doesn't mean that the government through the school
335. 23:57is trying to change the children's belief system.
336. 23:59Now remember I told you these are elementary school
337. 24:01aged children, five year olds.
338. 24:05I remember being elementary school,
339. 24:06I had to teach Miss Dion, oh I love Miss Dion.
340. 24:10If Miss Dion would have told me the sun was blue,
341. 24:14You couldn't tell me this unwedendly.
342. 24:17But the court you see, the court, the appellate court said,
343. 24:21we're not.
344. 24:22The government isn't infringing upon your religious beliefs
345. 24:26just because they're being exposed to this information.
346. 24:29Doesn't mean that it's changing their beliefs.
347. 24:33And what world do you think that could be true?
348. 24:36So the parents were forced to appeal this case
349. 24:39to the United States Supreme Court.
350. 24:43And the United States Supreme Court
351. 24:45the word oral arguments on this case today.
352. 24:54Ha ha ha ha.
353. 25:00Just as Brett Kavanaugh was shocked during the oral arguments, he said this quote, I guess
354. 25:11I'm a bit mystified as a lifelong resident of the county how it came to this.
355. 25:19End quote.
356. 25:20He argued, he mentioned during the arguments that this is a state of religious liberties
357. 25:24at the core of its founding.
358. 25:27How do we get to this?
359. 25:30To this, there's a bit of news coverage on this.
360. 25:31You might expect, listen to and watch clip number two, go.
361. 25:36In the largest school district in Maryland,
362. 25:38a dispute over books, gender, and religion
363. 25:41is pitting families against each other,
364. 25:43in a case now coming before the Supreme Court.
365. 25:46At issue, a policy by Montgomery County Public Schools
366. 25:49that does not allow parents to off their children
367. 25:51out of lessons that use these books
368. 25:53and feature LGBTQ plus themes,
369. 25:56including same-sex love stories and transgender characters.
370. 25:59In 2023, a group of parents who are Muslim, Catholic, and Ukrainian Orthodox filed a lawsuit
371. 26:04saying the school policy violates their First Amendment rights to freedom of religion.
372. 26:10But the policy has been upheld by lower courts.
373. 26:13The case is bringing a heated national debate to this community.
374. 26:16Look, Tabitha's in the chat saying, yes, it does change our outlook.
375. 26:20I work in childcare and have sadly seen the evidence.
376. 26:22Yes, it changes our outlook.
377. 26:25Of course it does.
378. 26:26That's the girl hit the nail on the head.
379. 26:30I wonder if this court know what a woman is.
380. 26:33Guys, this is a perfect opportunity
381. 26:36to provide a subject matter lesson.
382. 26:40Remember when Justice Katanji Brown Jackson
383. 26:43during her confirmation hearing
384. 26:46could not or would not define what a woman is
385. 26:48and now you have her on the bench.
386. 26:51When you have parents saying
387. 26:53that the government through its public schools
388. 26:55doesn't have the authority to indoctrinate my children
389. 26:58and sexual rebellion,
390. 26:59yet you literally have Katanji Brown Jackson,
391. 27:01the one who says you didn't know what a woman was
392. 27:03on the bench hearing this case.
393. 27:05How do y'all think KBJ is gone?
394. 27:08We're going to decide in this case, what do you think?
395. 27:10Wait, wait, wait, what do you think?
396. 27:15Guys, it is appalling.
397. 27:21That first the school district,
398. 27:23the Montgomery County School District,
399. 27:26then not one, but two federal courts will say,
400. 27:31ah, it's no problem.
401. 27:33Who cares what the parents believe?
402. 27:35Who cares
403. 27:38with the parents believe.
404. 27:42Now remember, this is the same school district,
405. 27:44it has opt-outs for all kinds of other things.
406. 27:47Why do you think they want to fight so hard
407. 27:49to keep the elementary school-aged children
408. 27:51from being able to opt out of this kind of instruction?
409. 27:58I call it doctors of demons
410. 28:00that are being propounded without tax money.
411. 28:09The district said no opt-outs from these storybooks.
412. 28:14Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
413. 28:20Justice Neil Gorsuch seized on some of the documented statements
414. 28:28of the school board members from Montgomery County
415. 28:31who said things like this, quote, students are just coming to school
416. 28:34parroting their parents' dogma.
417. 28:36Students are coming to school parroting their parents' promotion of hate
418. 28:42and talking points endorsed by white supremacists and xenophobes.
419. 28:47That's what school board members are saying about the parents,
420. 28:50who don't want their children learning about same-sex love stories in trans
421. 28:59gender characters. One of the storybooks required a children to be able to
422. 29:04identify sex workers. Sex workers. That's what you want your five-year-old to learn, man.
423. 29:11Justice Katania Brown Jackson, you know the one who didn't know what a woman was.
424. 29:24I'm never gonna let that go.
425. 29:27I'm never gonna let it go.
426. 29:28Because now you see why it was important
427. 29:31to get an answer to that question.
428. 29:37Surprisingly, you wanna know what Katanjibrown Jackson
429. 29:39was interested in learning about during the oral arguments?
430. 29:45Katanjibrown Jackson was worried about,
431. 29:47well, how far are you planning to go with these opt-outs?
432. 29:51Because the way the oral argument hearing was going,
433. 29:54it was clear that you had at least five, if not seven,
434. 29:57justices that were like,
435. 29:59Mm-mm.
436. 29:59Mm-mm.
437. 30:00We gonna slap this right now.
438. 30:03But when you wanna know what Kachanja Brown Jackson
439. 30:04was interested in, he was interested in knowing,
440. 30:06well how far do we go with these opt-outs?
441. 30:08I mean, what if a teacher has a homosexual
442. 30:13and they have their homosexual lovers?
443. 30:15They can't put pictures of their partners
444. 30:17up in the classroom.
445. 30:19The parents can opt out of that too?
446. 30:23Or what about, what if there's a transgender child
447. 30:26in the class?
448. 30:27The parents can opt out of that too?
449. 30:29God, you see, you see what?
450. 30:31It's not surprising that the one who don't,
451. 30:35who refuses to say what a woman is,
452. 30:39is asking these kind of questions.
453. 30:43Then you have Sonia Sotomayor.
454. 30:46Oh my God.
455. 30:50Who thinks she's being lied, offering other hypotheticals?
456. 30:56Well, what would it be a problem if children were exposed
457. 30:59to books about where you had characters that were divorced
458. 31:02or interfaith or what about a modest dress?
459. 31:05Did the parents be allowed to opt out of that too?
460. 31:07And the thing that always makes me,
461. 31:09makes me, one of the things I note from this,
462. 31:11Sony's Sotomayor, Sony's Sotomayor,
463. 31:13I don't believe has any children of our own,
464. 31:16but she gonna tell us what to do with our children.
465. 31:19You know?
466. 31:21Just as Elena Kagan even said, you know,
467. 31:24when I learned that we talking about children
468. 31:26as young as five, they're even non-religious parents
469. 31:29that probably have some problems with these books.
470. 31:31Yeah!
471. 31:37And then they started to let the cat out of the bed.
472. 31:39We need to be careful how far we go with this
473. 31:41because we're getting to the place where we're letting parents determine curriculum.
474. 31:45Uh-huh.
475. 31:51That's another one.
476. 31:53I don't believe Kagan has any children either.
477. 31:58Guys, this is...
478. 31:59This is...
479. 32:00Today, this happened today.
480. 32:07And I know a lot of us like to think, well, that's happening to me.
481. 32:09That's not happening to my neck of the woods.
482. 32:10I would just urge caution.
483. 32:11Guys, this is straight up sick.
484. 32:14This is straight up sick.
485. 32:15The Lord said, what went to you who serves a stumbling block to the least of these?
486. 32:23Mm-hmm.
487. 32:24Cagan.
488. 32:25Mm-hmm.
489. 32:26Laying at Cagan, not married, no children.
490. 32:31They don't have children.
491. 32:33Cagan and so tomorrow in particular,
492. 32:34but they're gonna tell you what to do with your children.
493. 32:38Remember, this is the United States Supreme Court.
494. 32:43If you can't opt out from this in Maryland,
495. 32:46what is the implication for the rest of the country?
496. 32:49We talk some more about it.
497. 32:50We come back from this spring.
498. 33:01The American Family Association's mission
499. 33:03is to inform, equip, and activate individuals
500. 33:05to strengthen the moral foundations of our culture.
501. 33:08We also support the Church.
502. 33:10Our goal is to be a leading organization
503. 33:12in biblical worldview training for cultural transformation.
504. 33:16We believe true morality flows from biblical principles
505. 33:19in direct people to the manner in which God intends him to live.
506. 33:23Thank you for standing with the American Family Association
507. 33:26as we seek to stop the erosion of godly values.
508. 33:31As a nurse, I primarily work with children
509. 33:33who are abused and exploited in trafficking,
510. 33:36and I frequently see very unfair situations.
511. 33:40We must talk about the issue of abuse.
512. 33:44We can't base our actions on fear.
513. 33:46We have to be faith informed in what we do.
514. 33:50The Dr. Nurse Mama Show.
515. 33:52For more from Dr. Jessica Peck,
516. 33:53tune in at 2 p.m. Central on American Family Radio
517. 33:57or on the podcast page at aFR.net.
518. 34:04The Hamilton Quarter Podcast and One-Bitted Common Terries
519. 34:08available at aFR.net back to the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
520. 34:14Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner. There's one way you can certainly protect your children
521. 34:23from this, disciplining them from your home. And this, and you know, I've said it before,
522. 34:32I'm out or running around looking for a fight, but I'm certainly not going to run for any.
523. 34:36I'm grateful for the attorneys that are representing these families here. We need to communicate
524. 34:40these things to fight for our freedoms publicly.
525. 34:42But the one thing that I've said numerous times that I will continue to say,
526. 34:45that we get one opportunity to shepherd the hearts and minds of our children.
527. 34:49There are no do-overs. There are no do-overs.
528. 34:53I was talking to Bobby during the break. Remember, the boy who decided to start winning
529. 34:58skirts coming to school in Loudoun County, Virginia,
530. 35:00and he would get young girls in the bathrooms and would rape them. Remember that?
531. 35:04You can't unring that bell.
532. 35:07You know, this case, that's before the court today, stems from 2023.
533. 35:11how many children have been subjected to this demonic storybook instruction in the last two years
534. 35:24that have not been allowed to opt out. It is wicked, man. It is wicked. And when you see people that
535. 35:33are so willing and eager to corrupt the minds and hearts of young children, it's sick. It's sick
536. 35:47and to see that our nation is so sick that you can go to two levels of a federal court system
537. 35:54and have no sanity. Fewer things make me more angry than seeing this intentional corruption of
538. 36:10children. Now from the legal side, I expect this to be a moment of sanity from the court when you
539. 36:22consider the scope of cases in this area, not specifically the opt-out provision, but like the
540. 36:30the Carson versus making case and the coach Joe Kennedy case that I can see they're being
541. 36:35a win for the parents in this case from the Supreme Court.
542. 36:39But I'm telling you, man, the founders didn't intend for us to have a nation that we all
543. 36:43have to wait with baited breasts biting our fingernails.
544. 36:46We don't know what's going to happen waiting for lawyers and black dresses to pronounce for
545. 36:51us all how we can live as citizens.
546. 36:53That's not the way our nation was supposed to function, man, and to have school district
547. 37:01administrators to have the audacity to say, you know what?
548. 37:05We teach your children this.
549. 37:06I won't care what you think about it.
550. 37:13Guys, we have to open our eyes.
551. 37:16We have to open our eyes.
552. 37:19A great resource if you have questions, you can hear this story
553. 37:24and you may be aware of some things happening in your neck of the woods,
554. 37:27a great resource to start.
555. 37:31It's going to HSLDA.org.
556. 37:32You can get a lot of information from there, especially what the laws are
557. 37:37in your portion of the country, where you live in the country.
558. 37:40Because this is insanity man these I my children. Oh belong to the governor. I don't co-parent with the government my children
559. 37:48Oh belong to the state
560. 37:49All right press secretary Caroline Levitt was speaking today and
561. 38:01She mentioned
562. 38:02There's some things appear to be moving and she said at Trump's beat
563. 38:07on
564. 38:08the economic front according to
565. 38:11Press Secretary Levitt the White House has received documents outlining proposals from 18 nations
566. 38:18as to how they would like to address trade with the United States of America. Listen to
567. 38:26and watch clip number one go.
568. 38:29Book to our entire trade team this morning. There is a lot of progress being made. We
569. 38:33now have 18 proposals on paper that have been brought to the trade team. Again, these
570. 38:38are proposals on paper that countries have proposed to the Trump administration and to
571. 38:44our government. You have Secretary Bessent, Secretary Lutnik, Ambassador Greer, any C
572. 38:48Director Hascent and Peter Navarro, the entire trade team,
573. 38:52meeting with 34 countries this week alone.
574. 38:55We are moving at Trump's speed to ensure these deals are made
575. 38:59on behalf of the American worker and the American people.
576. 39:02And just yesterday, it seemed to get a little bit lost
577. 39:04in the news, and I think it's a service to the American public
578. 39:07that it did.
579. 39:08The Vice President announced terms of reference
580. 39:10for a trade deal with India.
581. 39:12That is a big deal.
582. 39:13We know when we look at the numbers,
583. 39:15the monetary trade barriers and the non-monetary trade
584. 39:18various from India, they have been ripping off the United States and American workers for
585. 39:22a very long time.
586. 39:23So the fact that the Vice President with Prime Minister Modi on that trip in India announced
587. 39:29these terms of reference, which is essentially a framework to move the ball forward to sign
588. 39:33a good trade deal between our two nations, is great progress.
589. 39:37And it speaks to the work ethic and the real labor that's being put into this effort by
590. 39:41the President's trade team.
591. 39:43Hmm. Just saying. Just watch. You mean, I've said it before,
592. 39:49I'm not a terrorist guy. I've never been a fan of terrorists.
593. 39:53But as I have said, President Trump is the first person, certainly in my lifetime,
594. 39:59certainly in the last half century that's been willing to identify that we can
595. 40:02continue to let China do what it's doing. Are we going to make a make an adjustment?
596. 40:06And this, this announcement concerning the terms of reference, that's,
597. 40:12that's the term of art that's employed, the terms of reference between the United
598. 40:16States and India when Vice President JD Vance was in India with India's Prime Minister Narendra
599. 40:25Modi.
600. 40:26It's kind of a big deal.
601. 40:29It's kind of a big deal.
602. 40:31So having documents and it'd be clear it's like a, it's a draft, right?
603. 40:36It's a draft proposal.
604. 40:37It's nothing has been solidified concrete yet.
605. 40:39But again, do you think we'd be having these conversations?
606. 40:41If President Trump didn't do what he did, no, I would have done things differently.
607. 40:47I'm a different guy.
608. 40:49I told you, I thought that the most prudent route
609. 40:51would be deregulation first.
610. 40:55Then stabilizing our tax rate scheme
611. 40:59because the tax rates from President Trump's first term
612. 41:04are set to expire.
613. 41:06I thought those are two chips that need to be nailed down
614. 41:09before you attempt to do anything with foreign trade.
615. 41:13President Trump thought differently, all right?
616. 41:17But here we are.
617. 41:19And with the clip didn't share,
618. 41:21that you had 18 proposals from 18 nations and the president is hosting 34 nations this
619. 41:27week, just this week. 34 nations are meeting with President Trump's trade team. That's significant.
620. 41:39But you want to know about that. Something else that's happening. And I don't expect
621. 41:46the talking snake, the liars, and the American provda to point this out. But I'm going to do it.
622. 41:56So Angel Studios recently released its animated film, King of Kings.
623. 42:06The film is based on Charles Dickinson's, the life of our Lord in which he ended up writing
624. 42:13a work that chronicled his efforts to teach his own son about Jesus.
625. 42:20For disclosure, I took my children to see this film and they absolutely loved it.
626. 42:27I don't want to spoil anything, but the film was set with Charles Dickens's son loving
627. 42:32tales like King Arthur and the Excalibur.
628. 42:36And Charles Dickens is like, hey, you want to know about a king?
629. 42:41And so he recounts basically the gospel, the gospels.
630. 42:46And his son ends up being enthralled by it.
631. 42:54Well, King of Kings just broke a 27-year-old record in terms of box or office revenue and
632. 43:03when you contrast that with Snow Woke, Snow Woke ain't making no coin.
633. 43:13You get to realize and I'm gonna say something after I share this information, but it's not
634. 43:19as if people don't know what types of films American people want to see.
635. 43:23It's because they're just like the Montgomery school district.
636. 43:26They don't care what you want.
637. 43:27They're gonna tell you what you should like.
638. 43:30Are you needing anybody pulled?
639. 43:32You know, the Snow Wilkins, the Snowball Condensers High,
640. 43:35and say, hey, you probably should make this film.
641. 43:37I mean, you keep losing with these films.
642. 43:43Nah, we're gonna tell them what they're gonna like.
643. 43:47All right, well, King of Kings just took down
644. 43:51the former highest-grossing, faith-based animated film,
645. 43:56which was Prince of Egypt for 1998.
646. 43:58King of Kings is now taking its place.
647. 44:00Place vision two and watch clip number three, clip three.
648. 44:03Go.
649. 44:04Faith based movies are taking over theater as this Easter weekend.
650. 44:07The King of Kings breaking faith based animated box office records with its domestic box office
651. 44:13at an estimated $45 million.
652. 44:16I think one of the things that we are about at industry is listening to our audience and
653. 44:20what we have found is when we actually look out to the audience and ask them what are
654. 44:25movies that you want to see, we give them the power to tell us as the studio, which ones to pick.
655. 44:32And it was our audience that scored King of Kings way in the 90 percentile to say this is the kind
656. 44:38of movie that we want. And that's what we do at Angel Studios. We deliver films to the audience.
657. 44:43They are the boss for Angel Studios. So there you have it. I mean, it's not a surprise over the
658. 44:54resurrection Sunday celebration weekend.
659. 44:58King O'Kings was the second highest grossing film only coming in second behind the Minecraft movie.
660. 45:05It's not that these people, meaning the movie makers and all don't know what works.
661. 45:14They're not interested in doing that.
662. 45:17They're more interested in trying to be some kind of activist.
663. 45:20So what we do?
664. 45:26Look, I'm running into talking for us.
665. 45:28All right, you keep making snowwokes y'all can spend three hundred four hundred million dollars on the film and don't make any money from it
666. 45:35And then you have little bitty angel studios
667. 45:39And they'll keep doing it so because eventually eventually
668. 45:46Hollywood is a business at the bottom line
669. 45:50foundation and it's it's
670. 45:54It's vitally important that we understand that we understand
671. 45:58That there's no such thing as neutral everything has
672. 46:03a worldview foundation in the overwhelming majority of entertainment is endeavoring to communicate a
673. 46:12message. When the scriptures warn about false teachers, we would be woefully underserved if we'd
674. 46:20limited the concept of false teaching to someone standing behind a lectern who might or might not
675. 46:26have a sweat of s in the bow tie. No shade of the bow ties because I don't know I like a bow tie.
676. 46:31I have one in the wild in the studio, but I had to bring that back.
677. 46:35Jeff might object, but we'll work that out.
678. 46:40That's not the only source of false teaching.
679. 46:43So you have all of these efforts, snowwoke.
680. 46:47I don't remember all these things.
681. 46:48I don't want to watch them.
682. 46:50And for me to make the effort to go to the theater,
683. 46:53that's a big deal.
684. 46:55The Hamiltonian train, it takes a little to get the cars on the train
685. 47:00moving.
686. 47:00You know what I mean?
687. 47:03But yeah, that's another.
688. 47:04I remember Indiana Jones and all of it,
689. 47:08they messed up Indiana Jones and just messing up
690. 47:11all this stuff.
691. 47:12You know, Disney used to be a trustworthy source
692. 47:15that Americans believed in, and that has been totally
693. 47:19corrupted, totally corrupted.
694. 47:23So usually, vote what you're feeding your dollars.
695. 47:27And you determine where you're gonna put your money.
696. 47:29Don't go see these things.
697. 47:32I have children, I don't have the luxury
698. 47:34of just blindly going into a theater.
699. 47:36No, we do research.
700. 47:38There are things that are available.
701. 47:39One million moms is a great resource.
702. 47:42Writing reviews on films and things of that nature.
703. 47:45And we determined.
704. 47:46So we made an objective.
705. 47:49This is one where we'll put a few coins in.
706. 47:52King of Kings, we'll put a few coins in.
707. 47:55My children loved it.
708. 47:59One of my, one of my, you know, Bobby Abby.
709. 48:02She's like, but daddy, there was some portions
710. 48:04of the gospel.
711. 48:05I wonder why they didn't include this.
712. 48:07All right, Abby, let's talk about it.
713. 48:08If you know my that's one of my daughters you know her that's her personality
714. 48:13But all in all they they they know this they know these things I give you one more on my way out of the door
715. 48:22Now gonna be mad a judge in New Mexico judge Jose
716. 48:30Cano who was a magistrate and donia on a county
717. 48:35Resigned from his magistrate position. Y'all want to know why?
718. 48:39Because an illegal alien got arrested at his house
719. 48:45We got a few minutes.
720. 48:46Jeff put the book info on the screen.
721. 48:48You got it?
722. 48:49Put the book info on the screen.
723. 48:51The illegal alien was hanging out with the judge's daughter.
724. 48:56In Tom Hohman, get ready Bobby,
725. 48:58play me a song on the way out.
726. 49:00Tom Hohman and, show it up.

728. 49:08They find my man, let me give you his name.
729. 49:11Oh, what did I put his name?
730. 49:13Here it is, Christian Ortega Lopez.
731. 49:18Also, happened to be an MS-13 gang member.
732. 49:20I'm sorry.
733. 49:21A Tren de Aragua gang member from Venezuela
734. 49:24was arrested at the judge's house.
735. 49:26After his arrested judge said,
736. 49:28you know what, I'm going to resign from my judgeship
737. 49:30because I got illegal aliens at the house.
738. 49:32I'm probably not going to keep my position as a judge.
