0:00Darkness is not an affirmative force.
0:02It simply reoccupies the space vacated by the light.
0:06This is the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
0:10It 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.
0:23Even in this dark moment.
0:26Let's not miss our moment.
0:28And now, the Hamilton Corner.
0:32Good evening, everyone.
0:34Welcome to the Hamilton Corner.
0:35My name is Abraham Hamilton the third.
0:38Thank you for tuning into the program.
0:40And as you've done all throughout the weekend,
0:43all the years we've been on the air here.
0:47It is a privilege to join you on a daily basis.
0:50We are here in studio.
0:52I'm accompanied by producer extraordinaire, often imitated,
0:56never duplicated the real J. Mac.
0:59and we are ready to rock and roll with today's edition of the program
1:03at this very moment many of you if not most of you are making your transition
1:06from your part-time jobs you generate income
1:09to your full-time jobs where you cultivate an outcome and through which you
1:12cultivate an outcome and as you do so
1:14i want to remind you as i do on a regular basis what goes on
1:19in your house is far more important what goes on in the white house
1:23uh... here we have most recently the white house is signed the bill
1:28to reopen the government, which was the product
1:32of political shenanigans driven by Democrats,
1:36who tried to hold, not tried to, who held the country hostage
1:42because Obamacare was never affordable from the beginning.
1:46In fact, it was designed to be unaffordable,
1:49but they wanted to try to make political,
1:51make a political grandstanding gesture in order to,
1:55and you heard their own party members tell you,
1:58Well, this was our leverage point.
2:00So all of the hand-ringing and, oh, we want people to get there.
2:05They're down with EBT.
2:06Yeah, you know me.
2:08You know what, SNAP, yeah, you know me.
2:11And all of this stuff that they were talking about,
2:13that they don't care about that.
2:15They're willing to use it for their advantage
2:17so they perceive for political purposes.
2:19And just let me say, the government reopening
2:23is just going to continue with the current
2:27continuing resolution until January.
2:31So we'll be back with the same issue
2:36brought before us in January.
2:37And it's important for the American people
2:39to pay attention to that because we'll
2:41have another episode where temper tantrums over Obamacare
2:44subsidies, subsidies will transpire.
2:48There is a vote, Republicans agree
2:51to vote on the enhanced subsidies,
2:53but it's very unlikely that they will pass.
2:57So what's going to happen in January, but before we get to any of that and beyond any of that,
3:03what goes on in your house is more important because you do not have the capacity to directly
3:07impact that, but you do have the ability to directly impact and I would add the responsibility
3:15to directly impact what transpires in your home.
3:19So at this very moment as you are making your transition, you must, I must, we all must do
3:26do so with intentionality. Well, I'll be making mine a little later once I get off there. But
3:31we must do so with intentionality because we're not going to outvote. We're not going to out politic.
3:36We're not going to out Supreme Court opinion. We're not going to out rule 22 filibuster rule. We're not
3:42going to house majority, sentiment, majority house minority, sentiment, minority deficiencies
3:46that are bound in the home. That's just the truth. Those things are significant. Those things are
3:53important, we need people on the front lines in those areas. But if we have people serving in those
3:59capacities, but there is a continued negligence, a continued ignorance, a continued refusal to do
4:06what God requires of us in our homes, God's, those things are become nothing more than window-dressing.
4:12And I will continue to ask this question rhetorically, how long do we expect a wicked
4:18populace to endure righteous leadership. When that populace has the prerogative, the constitutional
4:26prerogative to select its own servant leaders. What quality, what kind of servant leaders do you think
4:33will be selected when we have an increasingly wicked populace? We have to put into practice
4:42what God calls us to. Making disciples is not merely, this is a church growth strategy.
4:48No, no, no, no, no.
4:49Making disciples is a vehicle through which God establishes his kingdom.
4:54And because the American experiment in individual liberty flows directly from the truth and
5:02scripture, directly from the revelation of the immago, the reality of the immago day,
5:07directly from some of the revelations articulated throughout the Protestant Reformation, because
5:12our nation flows has been constructed directly from that, guess what our nation needs in
5:19in order to maintain and to continue this in the words
5:23of Benjamin Franklin, a republic, if you can keep it.
5:26Guess what's needed to keep the republic?
5:33A people who are self-governed as a fruit
5:38of the Spirit of God which indwells the regenerate.
5:41That is what we need.
5:44We need more believers to populate our nation.
5:47We need more people who have a biblical worldview.
5:49We need more people who will fill out what Proverbs 14
5:53He tells us in verse 34, righteousness, exultination,
5:57but sentence of reproach to any people.
6:00To the word of God we go, Proverbs, chapter three.
6:02Proverbs, chapter three, verses one through eight
6:06is where I'm going to go.
6:07And I want you to notice something as we navigate the scripture.
6:11I'm gonna read it first and then we'll talk through it
6:12a little bit.
6:14Proverbs, chapter three, verse one.
6:16My son, do not forget my teaching,
6:19but let your heart keep my commandments.
6:23For length of days and years of life and peace,
6:26they will add to you.
6:29Do not let kindness and truth leave you.
6:32Buying them around your neck,
6:33write them on the tablet of your heart,
6:36so you will find favor and good repute
6:39in the sight of God and man.
6:42Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
6:44and do not lean on your own understanding.
6:47In all your ways, acknowledge him,
6:50and he will direct your pass,
6:52or he will make your past straight.
6:54Do not be wise in your own eyes.
6:57Fear the Lord and turn away from evil.
7:00It will be healing to your body and refreshment
7:04to your bones.
7:06Hear the proverb writer articulates a view
7:10that is consistent throughout scripture in verse one,
7:12when it says,
7:13my son, do not forget my teaching.
7:18You can really put our nation in this point.
7:21America, do not forget my teaching.
7:24Well verse one explains is that you have the conveyance of wisdom utilizing as a framework
7:35the Father-Son relationship where the Father is representative of the heavenly Father,
7:43but the Son has been provided with robust teaching and instruction.
7:49And the Father adds to that robust teaching and instruction the admonition, don't forget
7:54what I've taught you.
7:57This is a sobering and gripping articulation and expression because the reality exists that
8:06one who's been the beneficiary of robust, godly council and instruction, it is not an automatic
8:13that that beneficiary will retain that instruction.
8:17Hence the exhortation here, don't forget my teaching.
8:23Don't forget what you've learned.
8:26Don't forget what I've taught you.
8:28in many ways we're living in a moment right now in our country where what is being displayed collectively
8:34is the fact that generationally we've forgotten the teaching of the Lord. We've abandoned that
8:42instruction. The reality exists that one can be presented with robust, godly, eternity-based,
8:53biblically anchored, guidance and instruction and that the one to whom that guidance and instruction
8:59was provided can become conveniently forgetful of the guidance and instruction.
9:05But it's not the Lord's will for that to be our experienced guys.
9:09Hence the admonition, do not forget my teaching.
9:13Then verse two conveys something that should be jolting for us as well as encouraging for
9:20us.
9:21Because very often, and I talk about it a lot and I reflect on it a lot, I think about what
9:26is going to be like in the tangible presence of God in the eternal state with all of the
9:32saints throughout human history.
9:35Whether it will be no need for a son because the presence of God is so radiant.
9:40I reflect on it often.
9:42I talk about it often.
9:46This scripture highlights the reality that heeding the Lord's instruction, refusing to
9:52to forget the heavenly Father's teaching and instruction,
9:56embracing the gospel of Christ Jesus,
10:00and repentance and faith, it has eternal benefit.
10:04Absolutely, but guess what?
10:07It also has temporal benefit.
10:10Verse two says, the refusal to forget the teachings
10:13of the Father, result in length of days and years of life,
10:18and peace being added to you.
10:21It's very similar to what you have,
10:23For example, in Exodus and recounted again in Deuteronomy,
10:27when the Lord commanded in Moses,
10:29receive God's commands, honor your father and your mother,
10:34that your days may be long in the land that your God
10:36has provided for you.
10:37In the New Testament, the Apostle Paul echoes that exact
10:40same command in Ephesians chapter six,
10:42and then he adds,
10:43this is the first commandment with promise.
10:47Then many times growing up in the Orleans,
10:49I would have conversations with families.
10:53When I say you may not realize that we're one of the most
10:56potent ways to short circuit your life
10:59is to refuse to honor your father and mother.
11:04One of the tried and true ways to short circuit
11:09your ability to enjoy what God has provided
11:12is by refusing to honor your father and mother.
11:15Here the Prophet writer is communicating something very
11:18similarly in that submission to God's word
11:22has benefit for us in the here and now.
11:27It is eternally beneficial and it is temporarily beneficial
11:32And the corollary is true.
11:34The corresponding implication is true,
11:37refusing to heed the Lord's word is detrimental to us,
11:44temporally.
11:46And if you reject the free gift of salvation, eternally,
11:50the text goes on,
11:52for length of days and years of life and peace,
11:55they will add to you.
11:57Do not let kindness and truth leave you.
12:01Buying them on your neck,
12:03write them on the tablet of your heart
12:04soul you will find favor and good repute in the sight of God and man."
12:12And that goes to similar verse, when the man's ways please the Lord even his enemies will be at peace with him.
12:17Yes, they're still enemies, but they won't have a ground or a basees upon which to assert perpetual hostilities towards you.
12:26So the result, the net result is that even his enemies will be at peace with you.
12:32And that is a spectrum, even his enemies will be at peace.
12:35associates
12:37Those who ain't may not like you that much but they can't do nothing about it loved ones, etc
12:41And it goes on down the line
12:47Then we get to verse five trust in the Lord with all your heart see all of these things flow in the direction toward verse five
12:55For refusing to forget the Father's teachings
12:58Keeping his commandments, treasuring them in our hearts
13:02It's like bank vaults banks have volts because they want to protect the most valuable
13:09assets they have. Our hearts should be volts for the Lord's commands, the Lord's
13:16word, biblical instruction. Our heart should be volts there, which is what the
13:22scripture is indicating when it says, well, let your heart keep my commandments.
13:26Again, it is true that we can be around the fount of knowledge from wisdom and
13:32understanding and yet not treasure it sufficiently. And so we simply trifle away
13:38the life giving virtue that God's Word is.
13:41And what God's Word produces in us.
13:44Back to verse five,
13:45trust in the Lord with all your heart,
13:47and do not lean on your own understanding.
13:51And do not lean on your own understanding.
13:57We all have made a God's image.
13:58We have understanding,
14:00but the scripture's admonition is to us,
14:02refuse to allow that to be the thing
14:05that governs our engagement.
14:06We surrender and submit our understanding
14:08to the wisdom of God.
14:10In all your ways acknowledge Him,
14:16and He will make it pass straight.
14:18I've explained before the word for acknowledge there is yada.
14:21Some might think that texts the same provide mental assent
14:23to God's existence, and that is not what He's saying at all.
14:26So where yada literally means to carry forward
14:28in every occurrence and future occurrence,
14:31the reality of the full scope, breadth, depth,
14:33and height of who God is.
14:36And welcoming that to govern your engagement
14:40engagement in the various circumstances. Do not be wise in your own eyes. Fear the Lord,
14:48turn away from evil. It will be healing to your body in refreshment to your bones. Christ's following
14:53has eternal benefit and temporal benefit as well. A discipleship minute with Joseph Parker,
15:04prayerlessness. What exactly is prayerlessness? Well, that's the failure to really pray as we
15:12we should. When we don't pray, we can miss things God is saying to us and God is doing
15:19in and around us. When we don't pray, we miss blessings God very much wants us to have. It's
15:26a challenging area of life for probably many if not most believers. The failure to pray,
15:32you know, the Word of God tells us in 1st Thessalonians chapter 5, it says, Pray without
15:36ceasing. How in the world do we really do that? Well, keep in mind God wouldn't tell
15:41us to do something we could not do. God tells us time and time again to do things that we
15:45can only do in his wisdom, in his power, and in his grace. Now I want to say and challenge
15:51every listener to really think about this. It's important that we live a life full of prayer.
15:57Shiting light into the darkness, this is the Hamilton Corner, an American family radio.
16:11Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham Hamilton III here. I'm delighted to have on
16:15program a woman who I admire I love her work enjoy all that she is doing and has done as she's been on
16:22the show before but it's been a while since we have had have had her on so I'm grateful to have her on
16:27today I'm speaking of none other than Miss Brigitte Gabriel national security analyst New York Times
16:33best-selling author and chairman of act for America her latest bestseller is rise rise and I have the
16:42the subtitle right here.
16:44Wait a minute.
16:45There we go.
16:46In defense of Judeo-Christian values and freedom,
16:50Miss Brigitte Gabrielle, thank you for joining me here on the Hamilton corner.
16:53I thank you.
16:54I'm delighted to be back with you.
16:56Oh, it is truly my pleasure and I am.
16:59I am completely confident that our audience will be blessed by the time we've
17:03been here together today.
17:05I wanted to jump right into it.
17:07We've seen some pretty significant events develop in our own
17:12nation lately went with the most recent being the election of the
17:16Islamianist in New York City, Zorran Mamdani, then you had you had Omar Fata
17:22who ran for mayor but didn't win but came pretty close and many
17:28hapless that's right. Then you had the phenomenon of of Islamic
17:31majorities in Dearborn Michigan I believe she eyed predominantly and in
17:37Hamtramic Michigan where you had the mayor and Dearborn to tell a local
17:40Christian resident that hey, you're not welcome here.
17:43What do you see happening in our country
17:47and with your background and your experiences
17:49and we can get into that, however you wanna go with that?
17:52What is she happening in our country
17:53and does it seem to have a familiar ring
17:56to what we've seen throughout history around the world
17:58and what you've experienced personally?
18:00Well, this is a scary thing for me
18:03because I see my past in America's future
18:07unless America wakes up today.
18:09I come from the, I was born and raised in the country of Lebanon, which used to be a
18:14modern Christian country.
18:16In my lifetime, I have seen the transformation of Lebanon from a majority Christian country
18:22to not only a majority Islamic country, but to a terrorist country, one of the biggest
18:28terrorist players in the world who harbored one of the most lethal terrorist organization
18:34in the world, Hosbalah.
18:36the
18:38attacks in four continents across the globe.
18:40So what starts in the Middle East doesn't stay in the Middle East.
18:44Right now, we are witnessing, we are witnessing the spread and the infiltration of Islam is coming
18:52out of the Middle East and spreading all over the world, bringing with them their ideology,
18:58their customs, their traditions, their faith and enforcing their faith and their habits
19:06and their traditions of the countries that they left and came to the United States so
19:10they can escape. They are enforcing that now down our throat. So they want best of what
19:17America has to offer what they come here here for the prosperity, the freebies, the benefits
19:23of the United States, the social security checks, the Medicare, Medicaid or whatever it is that
19:30they get the free health care, free this free that if you cannot make enough money, we're
19:35We're going to give you snap.
19:36We're going to give you food stamps.
19:38We're going to even give you free housing.
19:40And if you can qualify even for a free cell phone.
19:42So they want all the freebies that our freedoms enables us to give to our people, to our citizens,
19:49to take care of them.
19:50Now they're coming from these countries and they are trying to shove, not trying.
19:54They are shoving down our throat, all these bad things that they left.
20:00And that's why Americans need to wake up right now.
20:04just talk about it, not just think, oh my gosh, we've got a problem. But saying, I think, okay,
20:10one, we need to develop the backbone to say what needs to be said. And we need to organize,
20:16mobilize and engage our citizens to stand up and say, you're going to lose your country
20:22unless you become engaged today. So well said, and I didn't even mention that the things we
20:27mentioned, we're witnessing the genocide in Nigeria, the persecution and Sudan of Christians,
20:34The genocide of Christians in Nigeria, the persecution in the Sudan, the Democratic Republic of Congo,
20:38it's happening all over the world and it's being brought to our domestic shores.
20:41You mentioned that we need to wake up right now and develop the backbone to say what needs to be said.
20:46So, Ms. Gabrielle, what needs to be said?
20:49Well, one, we need to call evil by its name, evil.
20:54We need to stand up for our Judeo-Christian values and say, look, these values, these Islamists are bringing with them to our country,
21:02are not American values.
21:03They are not the values that made our country great.
21:06As a matter of fact, their values are the values that keep their countries as a third-world country.
21:12Their values are the ones that are oppressing individual rights, oppressing women.
21:17Fifty percent of their societies are basically do not produce anything, do not contribute anything.
21:23Women who are oppressed in their society. This is not how we operate.
21:27We do not want Sharia law in the United States. You want to practice your Sharia law?
21:31You stay where you are. You can immigrate to Saudi Arabia. You can immigrate to Indonesia.
21:35You can immigrate to Egypt. You can go stay in your own region in the world. You don't need to come
21:40to Canada and freeze your neck off or come to Minnesota and freeze your neck off from Somalia.
21:46People like Ilhan Omar, for example, and this fat guy who ran for mayor and lost, thank God,
21:53did not like Somalia so much. Why are they living? Or bludging their allegiance to Somalia,
22:00campaigning in Somali instead of campaigning in English, why are they here? They can go back to Somalia.
22:06So the first thing we need to identify the problem and start speaking up about it. And the second thing
22:11is we need to start organizing in our own communities, creating groups in our own communities that impact
22:18our elected officials who make the decisions that affect us. Look, it is our elected official that
22:23decide how many refugees get deposited in your state. It's your elected officials that approve the
22:29funding for these refugees that are deposited in your state. And so we need to impact those
22:35decisions. And that's why my organization act for America. And I encourage everybody,
22:40if my message resonates with you, go right now to act for America dot org and join us.
22:47Start a chapter in your community. If you have five friends who believe the same way you do,
22:53get together, start a group. We will connect you with other people in your state and in your city
22:59who are members of our organization who share our concern,
23:02who will work with you, that will grow your chapter,
23:05where you can impact your local policy.
23:07We monitor bills coming down for a vote
23:09at the federal level and the state level,
23:11and we notify you about these bills coming down for a vote.
23:14So make sure you are signed up to receive our emails
23:17and action alerts,
23:18the started chapter in your community.
23:20If you already have a group up and going,
23:22make sure you register your group with our organization
23:25so we can come behind you.
23:27We can lift you up.
23:27we can support you. We can give you our resources. We can give you our technology that will help
23:33you mobilize in your own community. That's how we can make a difference.
23:37Man, it's so profound. You speak so powerfully to this point is the question I'm going to make.
23:42I'm going to present to you now because many people will say, well, Abe and Brigitte,
23:47you guys are talking about this, but the overwhelming majority of Muslims are non-violent.
23:52It's really only a minority that is violent.
23:56What would you say to the person who would present to you the notion that the majority
24:00are not violent in terms of those who are Islamic practitioners?
24:04I agree with them.
24:05I agree with them 100%.
24:08But these are not the ones we are worried about.
24:10These are not the ones on 9-11, 2001.
24:15We had 2.3 million Muslims, peaceful, moderate Muslims living in the United States.
24:21It took only 19 radicals to bring the World Trade Center down, kill 3,000 Americans, and
24:27bring America down on its knees.
24:31Our air traffic came to a shrieking halt.
24:35Our stock market plummeted and stopped.
24:38Literally stopped.
24:39We were paralyzed not by the 2.3 million, but by 19 people.
24:45When you look at the radicals who drive the agenda all throughout the world, it doesn't
24:49matter where.
24:50They are the ones that passionate who are impacting the lives of millions of people.
24:56And we cannot allow that to happen in our country.
24:59And this is why I say 2% of the passionate will always overrule the 98% in different.
25:05This is why we need to organize.
25:07We're not organizing against those who want to come assimilate.
25:10We're not organizing against those who are peaceful people who want to come to this nation,
25:14who want to be a part of the American fabric, who want to contribute to America, who want
25:18to become taxpayers who are gonna support our society,
25:22who are gonna create jobs, employ Americans.
25:26This is what immigrants did for the last 300 years
25:29who came to this country.
25:30Myself included, I am a first generation immigrant
25:34from the Middle East.
25:36I'm a brown-skinned woman.
25:38I came to this country, I worked hard,
25:40I did not collect welfare,
25:42I paid for my own ticket to come to the United States,
25:45I paid for my own lawyers,
25:46I studied America's history so I can pass the exam to become an American because most people
25:52don't realize.
25:5340 years ago when I came to the United States and I had to become an American, I had to study
26:00after I got my green card.
26:02I had to study a two-inch thick book written by the Daughters of the American Revolution
26:07about America's history, America's judicial system, our laws, our judicial process, our
26:15Congress. And I had to take a written exam as well as a verbal exam in English about America's
26:22history, what made us great, our constitution, et cetera, in order for me to become an American.
26:28By the time I became an American, I knew more about American history than my own American-born
26:34husband did. You know, these are the type of immigrants we want to bring to this country and
26:39assimilate them. I created jobs. I started my own company. I didn't matter what I, you know,
26:45what the first thing I did in this country when I came was, you know, I needed money.
26:50We started our own business. I had a baby and I was pregnant with my second child.
26:54I put an eight by 10 paper at Regent University next to my house. And I said, I will type student
27:01papers for a dollar a page. We had just bought our first computer and I would put my kids to bed
27:06And I would sit at night from 10 o'clock at night till 2 o'clock in the morning typing student papers
27:12I didn't mind whatever job I had to do in order for me to make money to feed my family
27:17I did not depend on America to give me a dime
27:21Those are the type of immigrants we need to come to our country
27:24And so this is why we fight so hard. It's not that we are against Muslims
27:29We are against radicals who want to come to our country
27:31bless their prayer five times a day disturbing the peace while we can at ring
27:37church bells. When was last time in your own city you heard church bells ringing?
27:41On Sunday or on Wednesday? Has anybody ever awakened to the ringing of a church
27:48bell? Of course not! It's disturbing the peace. So why do people have to be
27:52awakened to the call of prayer Islamic call of prayer screaming about killing
27:57the infidels, by the way, because we know what that or Ann says, why are we allowing this in
28:02our country? This is why I say you need to be as organized as the Islamist are. That's
28:10why we need to organize. And again, if this message resonates with anybody who's listening
28:15right now, go to act for America dot org, join us, start a chapter, become a member, support
28:22become a proud member, stand with us.
28:24And you know what?
28:25We are, I'm a Christian.
28:28I was taught to love.
28:30This has nothing to do with hating Muslims.
28:34This has nothing to do with hating a group of people.
28:37This has something to do with when we see something wrong
28:40happening in our country, we stand up and do what is right.
28:43And a lot of Christians, by the way,
28:45I'm speaking to a Christian audience.
28:47People tell me, I'll appreciate I'm praying for our country.
28:50I'm praying for our country.
28:52Well, you know what?
28:54People say to me,
28:55I'm not an activist,
28:57I'm a prayer warrior,
28:58but I'm not an activist.
28:59And I tell them,
29:00you know what?
29:00Jesus set the example
29:02of what activism is.
29:04Jesus was the first activist.
29:06When Jesus saw something wrong in the temple,
29:08he walked into that temple,
29:10he overturned the table.
29:11He said,
29:12not in my father's house.
29:13When he saw something wrong,
29:15he stood up for what is right.
29:17And he did not allow it to continue,
29:19not under his watch,
29:20because he knew that was wrong.
29:22We are entrusted to whom much is given much is required.
29:27God doesn't change the world through lightning and the sky.
29:29God uses his people as instruments of change.
29:34We are the instruments.
29:35We can read our Bible, we can pray for our country,
29:38but we need to act for our country.
29:41And that's exactly why I named the organization act for America.
29:45Now think about America, not hope for America,
29:48Now, pray for America, but act for America,
29:51because you can help and wish and pray, and I do,
29:55but I act for my country as well,
29:57because without action, nothing happens.
30:00Go to actforamerica.org right now,
30:03and join us, fight for our country,
30:06preserve our today Christian values,
30:08America is worth fighting for.
30:10Well said.
30:11Now, I wanna ask you this,
30:12because some may not be familiar with your background,
30:15because I know about your background,
30:17suffering, the bombing in Lebanon and ultimately becoming a journalist in your early 20s on
30:24Arabic television, by the way, before you even came to this country, would you just share
30:28a little bit of your background for those who may not be familiar with it?
30:32I think, well, I was born and raised in Lebanon, which used to be the only majority Christian
30:37country in the Middle East.
30:39It was Paris of the Middle East.
30:41We imported people into our country who did not share our values.
30:45We had open borders.
30:46We were multicultural.
30:47We were open minded. We were fair. We were tolerant. Of course, like all Christians, you know, we want to do on to others
30:53What we want others to do unto you unto us we open our hearts to people we want to welcome people take care of people and
30:59We ended up importing people into our country who did not share our values once they got into our country
31:04They were majority Muslims. They put their heads together with the Muslims in Lebanon
31:08Once they became the majority they declared war on the Christians and started killing the Christians
31:13My 9-11 happened to me in 1975, when radical Islamists blew up my home, bringing it down,
31:21burying me under the rubble wounded.
31:23I ended up in a hospital for two and a half months, and later ended up living in a bomb
31:27shelter for seven years underground from the age of 10 till the age of 17 robbed of my
31:34youth.
31:35By the time I was 20, I had lost.
31:37I had buried most of my friends who were killed by radical Islamists.
31:41I ended up leaving to Israel and from Israel, I came to the United States.
31:45And I thought I left everybody, you know, all the crazies behind.
31:49But the crazies are now here in America.
31:52And I want to circle back to what you opened up the show about the concern, how we saw
31:59in Michigan, the mayor telling a Christian standing there talking about the blasting
32:03of the prayers, you know, that he wants to kick him out of the city.
32:07He wants to celebrate him when he leaves the city.
32:09The irony is they're both Lebanese, both from my home country.
32:15One is the Shiite Muslim who is now a mayor in Michigan and the other Christian who was
32:20standing up speaking is also Lebanese where he lost his country, our country of birth,
32:25theoretical Islam.
32:26And we are seeing the same thing play in the United States.
32:31That's why people need to heed the warning of people like us who escaped the Middle East,
32:35who came to the United States.
32:37are warning about these issues and that's why you need to speak up now while you still have a tongue
32:42and the freedom of speech to be able to speak up and stand up for America and because of America.
32:48Well let me break in because we're about to hit a break. You're listening to the Hamilton corner,
32:52my guest is Brigitte Gabriel Gabriel from Act 4 America. More when we come back from this break.
33:01Do you have an aimless teen living at home who lacks motivation and drive?
33:06Hi, I'm Mark Gregston with Parenting Today's Teens.
33:09Many of today's parents are facing a generation of high school graduates that can't seem to
33:13find direction or purpose.
33:15They won't get a job and they don't plan to continue their education.
33:19And in their eyes, the future is just one big scary unknown.
33:23So if your recent grad seems to be stuck in a rut, it's time to get him going again.
33:29Require him to search for a part-time job or take some classes at a junior college.
33:33Encourage him to discover new interest in hobbies.
33:36It's okay to wander aimlessly for a while, but at some point you need to insist on taking
33:41steps forward.
33:42Before long, he'll be off the couch and back on track to finding his way.

33:56The Hamilton Quarter Podcast and One-Bitted Common Terrors are available at eafr.net.
34:11to the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
34:15Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner.
34:16My guest is Brigitte Gabrielle, actforamerica chairman, actforamerica.org is the website.
34:22You need to go there now as you've heard her say numerous times.
34:26Actforamerica.org is the website.
34:28Jeff McPlease make sure we have that in the show notes and for those who are tuning into
34:31the program.
34:32Before we went to the break, you were making a point that I was unaware of in Dearborn that
34:36the mayor is sheite, but also the one who was basically scurrying off, not sheite, was
34:42Lebanese. And he is sheite, but he's Lebanese and that the one he was excoriating from the
34:49podium is also Lebanese. Would you just continue that and then we'll get to the seeming love
34:56affair between Islamists and the Democrat Party?
34:59Absolutely. What most people don't realize is in their born Michigan, their born style,
35:04We call it Dearborn Estan in Lebanon.
35:07In Dearborn, Michigan, there are 450,000 Shiites
35:11from the town of Bintish Bail,
35:13which is Hezbollah, major base in South Lebanon.
35:17450,000 live in Dearborn, Michigan.
35:21So the Islamic concentration in Detroit
35:23that you see there are Al-Shiite Lebanese
35:25who are all the relatives
35:27and they've got connections to Hezbollah in Lebanon.
35:29And so most people don't realize that.
35:31And the Christians who live in Dearborn Michigan
35:35are afraid to even speak up, you know,
35:37like this Lebanese, when you see people warning
35:39about what's happening in Dearborn,
35:41or what's happening with the rise
35:43of Islamic radicalism in America,
35:45they have to be very careful because those of us
35:47who are so passionate, because we come
35:49from that part of the world.
35:50We have seen this play before,
35:53we're just telling you how the play is gonna end.
35:55We've been there, we've seen it.
35:58But Americans are not ready to hear the truth
36:00and they are uncomfortable with the truth because they do not want to judge anybody, you know,
36:04they're being very careful, but that's the reality.
36:07That's why it's such concentration of radicalism and Michigan, that's where it's coming from.
36:14Now, you mentioned and I've referred to your book, Raj, your latest best-selling book.
36:20You said you have a whole chapter in your book that illustrates this connection seeming
36:25like because I asked a question on the air.
36:27There's no way that I can take New York City's Islam in a serious because if he's a serious
36:31Muslim, there's no way he could be a supporter of LGBTQ and transgender and all that kind
36:36of stuff.
36:37So what's the real truth here?
36:38And you have an entire chapter in your book that talks about kind of the useful idiot role
36:43that is the missing or are placing the Democrat party.
36:47And would you just expound on that a little bit?
36:49Exactly.
36:50The Islamists are willing to lie, cheat, you know, you know, and Islam.
36:55is Allah called taqiyyah or qithman, which means lying or deception.
37:00And Muslim is allowed to lie.
37:02He can even swear laying his hand on the Quran
37:05that he's telling the truth, knowing that he is lying
37:08and knowing that he is fully forgiven by Allah
37:12and by the Quran because he is commanded to do so
37:14in order to advance Islam.
37:16So you've got these Muslims working
37:18with the leftist in our country.
37:21You've got care, the consul and American Islamic relations,
37:24Working with the ACLU, the ACLU is basically the legal arm of care.
37:28And you scratch your head and you think to yourself,
37:31how can these two people have anything in common?
37:33The radical Islamists care with the ACLU,
37:36but they are using the leftist as the useful idiots
37:40as pawns at the hands of an organized Islamic community
37:44who knows exactly what they want to do in the end,
37:46who knows exactly their goal in the United States.
37:50A lot of them are front for the Muslim Brotherhood,
37:52like care, the Council on American Islamic Relations.
37:54They started as the Islamic Association for Palestine, which was listed in the Muslim Brotherhood
38:00Project for North America as a front to advance the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States.
38:07They ended up changing their names later because they needed the name that is very kind of beautiful
38:14and kind of flows with the breeze that Americans are comfortable with, like, Council and American
38:19Islamic relations, which sounds so wonderful and multicultural and etc.
38:24So this is what we are seeing right now.
38:27And the election in New York is a perfect example.
38:31You've got these young, lefty women who are all crazy about the radical Islamist mamdani,
38:39and who are so enamored by him not realizing if the guy is the true Islamist, this is the
38:43guy who started his political activism with the Muslim Student Association on college campus
38:49who comes from a radical father and mother who are devout Islamists who talk about the
38:56who actually justify suicide bombers, call them fighters, they consider them terrorists.
39:02And you've got all these young beautiful lefty young women who believe in abortion and
39:07women's rights and you know, all the lefty stuff gays and lesbians and LGBTQ and transgender
39:13rights and all of that men and women's sports, etc, etc.
39:17They are the ones who elected Mom Dani.
39:20And so, you know, we need to wake up the American public.
39:24And not just wake up the American public, Abe.
39:26This is an important point I wanna make.
39:29We need to wake up our own base
39:31because what's killing us is the apathy on our side.
39:34It's not that the left is organized.
39:36We know the left is organized because they want to organize.
39:39We know they are organized.
39:41Our base not only does not, is not active,
39:45is that organized, they don't even come out to vote.
39:48The apathy is the, the apathy is the cancer on the right
39:52that's killing the right and killing this country.
39:55This is why people need to be engaged.
39:58This is why people need to be active.
39:59And you know what, activism is so much fun.
40:01Can you imagine getting together with five of your best friends
40:06who shared your ideas?
40:07It's like a support system nowadays in America.
40:10Talking about how can we make a difference in our own country?
40:13Get them to invite five more friends.
40:14We have chapters who meet who are like 400 people.
40:17They get together once a month.
40:19It is amazing.
40:20They have met new friends that they never even knew existed
40:23in their own community.
40:25People that came together because we connected them together.
40:27This is how we organize on the local community.
40:31Get together and say, okay,
40:32who do we wanna run for school board?
40:34I'll give you a perfect example.
40:36Most people don't even show up to vote for school board.
40:39I live in a city of 450,000 people.
40:43You know how many people came out to vote for school board?
40:46150.
40:47150.
40:49Can you imagine if you have a chapter of 150 people,
40:53you can run your own people to run for school board
40:56and get only the chapter members to show up on vote for them.
41:00And we can literally take school boards across the nation.
41:05Wait, you say 150, 150 total or 150,000?
41:09150 people.
41:11And 50 persons showed up and voted for a school board in a city of 450,000.
41:19Oh, wow.
41:20People are not paying attention to these positions.
41:23This is exactly how we are losing.
41:25This is how the left is winning.
41:27The city councils, the mayoral, the state delegates, the school boards, because our
41:32people are not voting for these.
41:34Our people get excited and vote for congressmen or senator or, you know, they think, okay,
41:38election every two years.
41:39They're not paying attention to the locals that with the offices that we need to take but
41:45When when you are organized in a group you sit down together and make a list this month's meeting is gonna be about making a list of
41:52Who are our you know a school board members?
41:56Most people don't even know who are the school board members in their community
41:59Can you imagine you sit down and say okay? We need to make a list of our school board members and let's see who knows them
42:05Where do they stand? How do they vote? Okay, we've got, you know, this person,
42:10John Smith, who votes always for DEI and left this transgender in women's
42:17bathrooms and blah, blah, blah. We need to get rid of this person and we need to
42:20replace him with somebody that reflects our values. Okay, who from our
42:25chapter is going to run against this person? Okay, Abe, do you want to run
42:29against this person? Sure, I'll run against this person. You run, you get your chapter
42:34members to go out and vote for you and get their friends to go out and vote for you.
42:39People can literally take school board members nationwide if they apply the strategy of organization.
42:46That's how the left and the Islamists are organized and we are not and we need to start doing
42:50that.
42:51Go to actforamerica.org right now.
42:55Join us.
42:56Start a chapter, register your group with us, sign up to receive all your emails, our
43:00emails and action alerts and become a member today.
43:04That's how we're gonna take back our country.
43:06Now you made the point about not just discussing things
43:11and pontificating and all of that, but taking action.
43:16And there are things,
43:17one of the blessings we enjoy in this country
43:19is the separation of powers
43:21and the system of checks and balances.
43:24What would you say needs to be done in order
43:27to frankly beat back the tide of frankly the negative influence that are seeking to take
43:35over and ultimately destroy our country and our way of life?
43:40Look, they are organized and we are, I go back to organization.
43:45I go back to organization and I'll give you a perfect example right now.
43:50And I'm going to ask you this question.
43:53Okay?
43:54You may not know the answer because I ask this question to tens of thousands of people that I speak to.
44:01Okay.
44:01People, for example, everybody knows Obama was a community organizer, right?
44:07What do we have Obama for? Community organization.
44:10He was extremely organized. He organized communities.
44:13And Obama's grassroots organization is what everybody talks about.
44:20Oh my gosh, he organized the community. It transformed our country.
44:23Can you name me Obama's grassroots organization?
44:26Mm. He had several of I remember it.
44:31No, there was one. Mm.
44:35That he organized the whole nation with.
44:37It's on the tip of my tongue when I'm over call the name right now.
44:43Organizing for action. Yes, right.
44:47OFA. OFA when he left office morphed into something 10 times bigger,
44:52now has 6,000 chapters nationwide.
44:55Can you tell me that organization?
44:56Those are the people who are in your backyard,
44:59in your community fighting you right now.
45:01No, I don't wish, I don't know the name of it.
45:03Right, because on the right,
45:06I asked this question to literally groups of 10,000
45:11at a conference or in a mega church.
45:14And in five years, I've asked that question only,
45:17one person knew the answer.
45:19And he was a 30-year-old Russian Jew,
45:22a member of the Lincoln Republican Club in Orange County. And he knew it because he came from the,
45:28he used to be a Democrat. That organization's name is Indivisible, indivisible.org. On our side,
45:36our idea of activism is going to conferences. I ask people all the time, are you engaged? Are you
45:41active? Oh, yes, Brigitte, I'm very informed. I'm a member of the Republican Party. I attend
45:46every meeting. We have great speakers. Last month, we had so-and-so and this month, we have so-and-so,
45:52and people go to CPEC, oh my gosh, three days,
45:55we had incredible speakers,
45:57and I got my picture taken with Laura Ingram,
45:59and I got my picture taken with, you know,
46:02at that time, Charlie Kirk, or this and that,
46:04or this and that, and oh my God, it was fantastic.
46:06And we went to this conference and that conference,
46:09and people go to a conference, get excited,
46:11they hear great speakers, and they hear Laura Ingram, et cetera.
46:15You're not gonna hear anything new from Laura Ingram
46:17that you're gonna watch on the evening news on Fox at 7 p.m.
46:20People do not know what to do.
46:22They go home seven days later.
46:24They have no idea what to do, no idea who they're fighting
46:27and no idea what to do.
46:28And that's our job.
46:30We attack from America, not just educate,
46:33but mobilize people to understand.
46:36You know, General Hsu said, no, die enemy.
46:39You cannot win a war unless you know your enemy,
46:41unless you know who you're fighting.
46:43Our side does not know who they're fighting.
46:47They know a lot of information.
46:48They're very well informed.
46:50They hear from great speakers, they have no clue who they're fighting and what they
46:55can do.
46:57So what would you say they can do?
47:00Organize in their local community, match in the visible, start your own groups like in
47:06the visible and mobilize to save America.
47:09Those with the most passion win at the end of the day.
47:14And remember that big wave that we were supposed to have in 2022, the red wave, everybody
47:19Everybody, oh, we're going to have the red wave.
47:21I was not one of those people.
47:23Why do we have the thing?
47:28Our side is so pathetic.
47:30They think President Trump is going to fix it.
47:32See, the left doesn't depend on President Obama.
47:35Does that depend on President Biden?
47:37They have a machine.
47:40And it doesn't matter who's on power.
47:42The machine is moving and organized.
47:44That's why they win.
47:46And that's why they came out and won in color.
47:49and all the election, this last election.
47:52You know, everybody's focused on Mamdani.
47:54But do you realize that that's from the beginning
47:57of the year until now, we have lost,
47:59the Republicans have lost every single special election
48:02across the nation in the last 10 months?
48:05Most people don't realize that.
48:08Because everybody put their arms down
48:09and thought, oh, President Trump,
48:11we elected President Trump, he's gonna win everything,
48:14he's gonna fight for us, I'm not worried,
48:16he's gonna fix it.
48:17people sit on their marbles and think, okay, my job is done. I'll go out next year and vote.
