1. 0:00Darkness is not an affirmative force.
2. 0:03It simply reoccupies the space vacated by the light.
3. 0:06This is the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
4. 0:11It should be uncomfortable for a believer to live as a hypocrite.
5. 0:15Delivery people out of the bondage of mainstream media.
6. 0:18And the philosophies of this world.
7. 0:20God has called you and me to be his ambassador.
8. 0:24Even in this dark moment.
9. 0:26Let's not miss our moment.
10. 0:28And now, the Hamilton Corner.
11. 0:31Good evening, everybody.
12. 0:34Welcome to the Hamilton Corner.
13. 0:36Here on American Family Radio, I'm your host, Abraham Hamilton, the third.
14. 0:40Grateful to be with you.
15. 0:41Again, I'm joined by the corner contingent right across from me, my man, 100 grand.
16. 0:46Mr. Bobby, Rosa is in the studio behind the board and in the screening room produced extraordinary,
17. 0:54often imitated, never duplicated.
18. 0:55The real J. Mac, ladies and gentlemen, we are ready to rock and roll with today's edition
19. 1:00of the program. So much is happening. That it really is a, it can be overwhelming. When
20. 1:13you're talking about the foolishness du jour, I mean, it is, it is, it can be overwhelming.
21. 1:18But that's why I endeavor to remind you as I do every day, and it's also a reminder to
22. 1:24myself that what goes on in your house is more important than what's going on in the White
23. 1:27house because you and I are directly responsible for what happens in our homes.
24. 1:33At this very moment many of you, if not most of you, are making your transition from your
25. 1:37part-time jobs where you generate an income to your full-time jobs where you cultivate
26. 1:41an outcome.
27. 1:43As you do so, I want to remind you to do so with intentionality, understanding the primacy
28. 1:48that God places on family and welcoming that to govern, to guard, and to guide your engagements.
29. 1:54I understand exactly what I said, just like you, I have bills to pay.
30. 1:58I have children that eat every day.
31. 2:01You know, I'm like, can y'all skip a day or two?
32. 2:03They're like, no daddy.
33. 2:05I need my cocoa puffs today, just like I did yesterday.
34. 2:12But I'm inviting you to recalibrate your thinking,
35. 2:15because income generation is a part of what we do,
36. 2:17but it's not synonymous with our identities.
37. 2:20Our identity should be connected to outcome cultivation.
38. 2:24The responsibility of the believer is to be a disciple maker, not merely a convert,
39. 2:29but a disciple maker.
40. 2:31And the first iteration of that is our homes.
41. 2:34The world works over time to stretch us, to strain us, to cause us to have attention
42. 2:40and emotional investment everywhere else.
43. 2:44And we leave our families just to pick up the pieces of a, of a day's worth of leftovers.
44. 2:51And I want to encourage you to reverse that.
45. 2:52to be intentional about the time we spend with our families, to be intentional about the opportunities
46. 2:58that we have with our families to recognize that the family is God's primary institution
47. 3:04for generational kingdom building.
48. 3:06It's the primary one.
49. 3:08That's why no matter what the situation is, mental health professionals always begin with
50. 3:13tell me about your relationship with your father.
51. 3:16For good, bad or worse, good, bad or indifferent, it always starts there because God has designed
52. 3:21it designed us frankly so that fathers have an outsized and enduring impact upon our children.
53. 3:32You can read sociological study up to sociological study.
54. 3:34That's why you see, you know, 70s, 80 year old men talking about their relationship with
55. 3:40their fathers because God designed it that way.
56. 3:43So we will either intentionally utilize God's design or we will neglect our way into something
57. 3:50we really truly do not want.
58. 3:52Frankly, there is no middle ground there.
59. 3:55Now I understand that we have many different people
60. 3:57at various life stages.
61. 3:59We have people in various iterations.
62. 4:01Some of you are like me, many of you are like me.
63. 4:03I'm gonna say grab young children still on my home.
64. 4:05Some of you may be grandparents.
65. 4:07And you guys have heard me say many times,
66. 4:08some of you may be great grandparents.
67. 4:10We need all hands on deck.
68. 4:12And if we would allow the Lord to transform us
69. 4:16within our families, there's no question
70. 4:18that's what can happen in our nation.
71. 4:20So as you're making your transition,
72. 4:21I simply want to remind you.
73. 4:24Don't forget what's going on in your home.
74. 4:26In fact, reverse the world's trend
75. 4:29to cause you to give significance and import
76. 4:32to everything else but our families.
77. 4:36Let's reverse that.
78. 4:37To the word of God we go.
79. 4:38I want to return to Psalm 20
80. 4:40and to another verse deeper into the Psalm
81. 4:44than I did the last time we navigated this text.
82. 4:49by way of reminders Psalm 20 comes to West chronologically from King David, he was the
83. 4:54author of Psalm 20, but it follows the events that are recorded in 2 Samuel chapter 10 and
84. 5:001 Chronicles chapter 19.
85. 5:03In 2 Samuel 10 and 1 Chronicles chapter 19, it's recorded there that Israel was at war
86. 5:10against two nations simultaneously.
87. 5:12It was Syria and the Ammon who had come against, they come against King David in the nation
88. 5:21of Israel.
89. 5:23And one of the things you'll find when you read those chapters, 2 Samuel 10 and 1 Chronicles
90. 5:2819, you'll find that the Syrians at that juncture had a military weaponry advantage.
91. 5:38They had the innovation of chariots and they had a massive amount of horsemen.
92. 5:43Alright, it specifically refers to 700 charioteers and 40,000 horsemen, which is to be contrasted
93. 5:51with foot soldiers.
94. 5:53So you have 40,000 horsemen and chariots, you have a lot more mobility, a lot more thrust,
95. 5:58if you will, if you're going against foot soldiers only.
96. 6:04And that is the contextual backdrop for this psalm.
97. 6:07I want to zoom in to verses six through eight in the Psalm.
98. 6:14And remember David is the one who wrote the Psalm
99. 6:17and he says this, now I know that the Lord saves his anointing.
100. 6:22He will answer him from his holy heaven
101. 6:24with the saving might of his right hand.
102. 6:27Some trust in chariots and some in the horses,
103. 6:31but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.
104. 6:34they collapse and fall, but we rise and stand upright." Now, this Psalm truly leaps from the page when
105. 6:43you factor in the historical reality that David is expressing this, is expressing this after having
106. 6:53contended with Assyrian Ammonite tandem, national tandem, that thought that they had the upper hand.
107. 7:02They thought they had the upper hand because they had placed massive confidence in their
108. 7:08military innovation.
109. 7:10They placed massive confidence in what we have tanks and you don't.
110. 7:16They placed massive confidence in the fact that they had a slew of horsemen, that they
111. 7:26were not confined to foot soldiers for battle.
112. 7:31Yet, yet the Lord in His divine providence and in His sovereignty empowered David and the
113. 7:38nation of Israel to be victorious.
114. 7:41And when we turn to this passage before, I mentioned it in light of the necessity of never
115. 7:48getting too big for your britches.
116. 7:49That's what my dad used to say all the time.
117. 7:51Never getting too big for your britches.
118. 7:53I don't want anybody to take from this, though something that I am not intending to communicate.
119. 7:59I am grateful.
120. 8:00And I said this when I talked about this earlier this week, I'm grateful.
121. 8:02that the United States of America has the most potent military in the entire world.
122. 8:07That is an objective fact.
123. 8:10That is an objective fact.
124. 8:12But we need to be very wary about making the fact about our military prowess as the fulcrum
125. 8:23of our confidence.
126. 8:25We need to be very wary of having in God we trust in our Federal Reserve notes and on our
127. 8:29legal tender.
128. 8:30The truth is the practical reality is in our military retrust or in our, you know, our GDP
129. 8:36we trust, our ghost domestic product we trust because the scripture is replete from Genesis
130. 8:41on to revelation with the reality that God rules and reigns in the affairs of men, our
131. 8:50national history, United States of America as we are approaching the celebration of the
132. 8:54250th anniversary of our Declaration of Independence this July, right?
133. 8:58At that time, the global pre-imminant military superpower with a Redcoats in England, King
134. 9:05George thought everything was sweet.
135. 9:08Nothing could come his way because who can get at the Redcoats?
136. 9:12This is what he thought.
137. 9:14This is what he thought.
138. 9:15And because of the reality of human nature, and you add into it, I would definitely argue
139. 9:20this in this day and age, with the inundation with information, we need to be very careful
140. 9:26about that we do not miss construe, readily access to information with ready access to
141. 9:32wisdom. Because right now we have people that have access to information at the click of a
142. 9:37button. You pick up one of these pocket rocket computers, you know, they call them phones,
143. 9:41even though most people don't even call them with them. They do more texting than calling.
144. 9:45But this, this is a pocket rocket super, super computer. You know, many of you, like,
145. 9:50I've shared the story before, when I was in college, we had to go to the computer lab
146. 9:54to use computers.
147. 9:55And the processing capacity in these pocket rockets exceed, well most of us, experienced
148. 10:02in college.
149. 10:04Now, these younger generations, they're digital natives.
150. 10:07But we should not misconstrue ready access to information with wisdom because it ain't
151. 10:13the same.
152. 10:14And we have so much, we have such an inundation of information.
153. 10:18We have people who are, who are topically aware of a whole bunch of stuff, but don't
154. 10:21really have any expertise in anything in particular.
155. 10:24It doesn't really delve into the depths of too much things.
156. 10:27It's kind of the click and scroll phenomenon that is overwhelmed modern society.
157. 10:38But getting back to the text where I conclude in verse 8, it says,
158. 10:41They collapsed and fall.
159. 10:43Who is they?
160. 10:44It's the they who has placed their confidence, who has made their boast in the chariots.
161. 10:50It's the they who's made their boast in the horsemen.
162. 10:53Those are the ones who collapsed and fall.
163. 10:56David contrasts that with, but we rise and stand upright.
164. 11:01Who is the we?
165. 11:02Those who place our trust in the name of our Lord.
166. 11:08We're in a time period.
167. 11:11You know, we have people that have expertise in various areas and absolutely study these
168. 11:14show yourself to prove.
169. 11:16The scripture says, as a workman worthy to rightly divide the word of truth.
170. 11:21But in a particular discipline, if you have a vocational discipline, you know, if you're
171. 11:24You are an artist and you know you are a professional, some other sort.
172. 11:29You should be excellent, especially if you're a Christ follower,
173. 11:32because we do everything that we do hardly as unto the Lord and not unto men.
174. 11:37Excellence should be the standard for those who are in Christ.
175. 11:43But our pursuit of excellence is not about self-aggrandizement.
176. 11:47Our pursuit of excellence is not so we can pound our chest and look down our noses at other people
177. 11:53other people to look a scans that them to say, huh, you need to get up to my level.
178. 11:57That's not what we do because we understand what the apostle James said that God opposes
179. 12:08the proud.
180. 12:11God gives grace to the humble.
181. 12:14We cannot afford even in the era of modernity, even with technological innovation, even
182. 12:21with military supremacy, even with the largest GDP in the world, those things should never
183. 12:30be our fulcrum of confidence.
184. 12:34Certainly we need to be able to observe facts.
185. 12:37Certainly we should state facts, but we should recognize all good and perfect gifts come from
186. 12:43the Father of Lights.
187. 12:48I never get out, I've told the story in different places.
188. 12:51I don't think I've ever told the story on the radio.
189. 12:54I mean, if you guys know, I never even intended to be on the radio,
190. 12:59but I was in law school when Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans.
191. 13:02And I honestly, I never thought I would leave New Orleans and never thought I'd
192. 13:05practice law anywhere else because when I was in law school,
193. 13:07I studied only the Le Poli any code.
194. 13:09And I applied to take the bar exam in Louisiana prior to Hurricane Katrina coming,
195. 13:14you know, then Hurricane Katrina hits.
196. 13:18And here's another thing.
197. 13:19I actually had a job solidified at a law firm in New Orleans prior to Hurricane
198. 13:24Katrina.
199. 13:24Well, in a moment's notice and in one weekend, everything I thought my life would consist of
200. 13:32was blown away in one weekend.
201. 13:34I called the Louisiana State Bar to confirm that I would still be able to sit for the Bar
202. 13:38Exam that summer.
203. 13:41They regrettably informed me, Mr. Hamilton, I am sorry to inform you, but we had massive
204. 13:46flooding and we have no record of your application for the Bar Exam.
205. 13:51Should you still desire to sit for the Louisiana Bar Exam, you're going to have to wait an
206. 13:54entire cycle. I would have to wait until the next year to take the test. And many of you know the
207. 14:01rest of the story God used that to thrust me to Texas. I ended up having to learn Texas law
208. 14:06in two months and take the Texas Bar Exam and the rest of the story well but my point is
209. 14:12that I had an entire perspective of what my life was going to consist of and just like that.
210. 14:19Everything changed. My simple encouragement is to remind you that especially when you're successful
211. 14:30as has commonly understood that you cannot afford to be lifted up in pride because God opposes the
212. 14:38pride. The opposite is the proud. This is this applies to individual. This applies to individuals,
213. 14:44but it also implies to nations. May God grace our nation to be a nation where confidence
214. 14:53is also connected with God-driven humility. A discipleship minute with Joseph Parker.
215. 15:04Genesis is a wonderful, powerful, and supernatural book.
216. 15:08It's the book that begins to answer our questions about God.
217. 15:13People ask many questions about life, real questions that they wish to get answers for,
218. 15:19questions such as where did we come from?
219. 15:21Who created us?
220. 15:23Who created the world?
221. 15:25Who created the universe?
222. 15:28What is the purpose of life?
223. 15:29These are only a few of many legitimate questions that people often ask.
224. 15:34If you'd ask many scientists in our culture today, what are some of your main goals and
225. 15:39what is your purpose in studying science?
226. 15:41We're trying to find out who we are and where we came from.
227. 15:46The Word of God has answers, many, many answers.
228. 15:49It's God's Word that gives us answers to all of our questions.
229. 15:53He, of course, has answers that no one else would even begin to have.
230. 16:05Shining light into the darkness.

262. 17:38M-I-C-H-N-D-O-R-G, the Inch Conference.
263. 17:43It's gonna be an amazing, amazing time there as well.
264. 17:46All right, some of you might have heard,
265. 17:50I was on today's issues for a little while earlier this
266. 17:52morning and I alluded to this.
267. 17:57I wanted to share a little bit more
268. 18:04in a bit more detail what I alluded to because this is April 15th and this is
269. 18:11tax day all across the country and it's sad that so many people in our nation
270. 18:20they look forward to tax day unfortunately because they expect to get
271. 18:24refunds and for the most part what some don't understand is that when you get a
272. 18:30refund it's because you basically provided an interest free loan to the
273. 18:33government for an entire year. And they're not giving you something because of their so
274. 18:40gracious. They really given you your money back that they forcibly borrowed from you.
275. 18:51And I'm not laughing because it's funny. I am, I'm going to go see these laughs, keep from
276. 18:58crying kind of thing. Because like I was, many of you were, well not many of you, all of
277. 19:05you were born into, unless there's some very, very seasoned saints listening to the show
278. 19:11today, the majority of us were born into an era to where a federal income tax has just been
279. 19:17the norm, you know?
280. 19:19And it's one thing when there is something that's been normative, but we don't understand
281. 19:31And as a history that precedes what we think is normative.
282. 19:35But the reality of tax day is brought to you by Regressives R.S.
283. 19:42That's just the reality is brought to you by Regressives R.S.
284. 19:47What most people may not be aware of, the federal income tax coincided with the passage
285. 19:54and the signing into law of the Federal Reserve Act, which was initially tried and failed in
286. 20:011910 but it ultimately was passed in 1913 and signed into law by none other than you guessed it Woodrow Wilson.
287. 20:09One of, if not the worst, President in American history. The Federal Reserve Act was signed into law December 23rd, 1913.
288. 20:17Just marinate on that for a bit. Sign into law December 23rd, 1913. Now you asked, I'm going to ask you a question.
289. 20:27Do you think there was great intention for the citizens of the United States of America
290. 20:32to be able to consider well what had just been signed into law if it was signed into law
291. 20:39two days before the National Christmas holiday?
292. 20:43You think there was great intention for that?
293. 20:46Yeah, December 23, 1913.
294. 20:52One of the things that coincided with the legislative package that culminated in the Federal Reserve
295. 20:56Act which was the act that as I mentioned created the Internal Revenue Service.
296. 21:03The Internal Revenue Service was created to facilitate the 16th Amendment.
297. 21:09What is the 16th Amendment?
298. 21:11The 16th Amendment is the amendment that allowed for the first time a direct taxation on the
299. 21:19income-generating capacity of the American citizens.
300. 21:22The 16th Amendment, which was adopted February 25, 1913, says this, quote,
301. 21:29The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes from whatever source
302. 21:35derived without a portionment among the several states and without regard to any census or
303. 21:41enumeration.
304. 21:42Now, one of the things that I want to say on the onset when the 16th Amendment was initially
305. 21:49passed what was presented to the American people and stopped me if you heard this before
306. 21:55was that the federal income tax would only be a soap the rich tax that the federal income
307. 22:01tax will only affect the top 1% of wage earners. Have y'all heard that before? Have y'all heard
308. 22:09that before? Bobby, look at Jeff, got his hood on Bobby's again.
309. 22:15ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha I got a trek ha ha ha ha ha ha
310. 22:23I got a hook top now ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
311. 22:26the the federal income tax was presented to the American people as if it was only going
312. 22:32to be attacks against attacks upon the one percent of wage earners in the country.
313. 22:38Mm hmm do you do, you already wanted to see who's paying income taxes now?
314. 22:46is it the top 1% of the wage earners
315. 22:48that are paying a federal income tax?
316. 22:50And I wanna state something,
317. 22:51is something is wrong principally
318. 22:53if it affects the top 1% of wage earners or not?
319. 22:57Because then you had the inclusion,
320. 23:00which was a part of the design from the very beginning,
321. 23:02for there to be a progressive income tax.
322. 23:05Have you heard that terminology?
323. 23:07That the more revenue you generate,
324. 23:09the higher tax will be?
325. 23:12Because it was the mechanism for the redistribution of wealth.
326. 23:17And so as often as I can, I want to remind people
327. 23:22that this was not, the federal income tax has not been,
328. 23:27is not a staple of the American experience,
329. 23:31let alone system of government,
330. 23:33is something that was created during,
331. 23:36and installed during the quote unquote, progressive era,
332. 23:40which I call the regressive era.
333. 23:44If you examine the reality of capital formation
334. 23:47our country at the individual level, even at the banking level.
335. 23:51One of the most immediate things that is transpired is that it is the primary vehicle
336. 23:55that has transformed the United States of America from a capital formation nation to
337. 24:01a debtor nation.
338. 24:04When the Federal Reserve Act was passed, 90 plus percent of the American populace was 100
339. 24:09percent debt-free.
340. 24:11100 percent.
341. 24:14the passage of the Federal Reserve, that's actually been reversed almost identically.
342. 24:19It's one of those things.
343. 24:25Theft is theft whether it's committed by an individual or if it's committed by the government.
344. 24:30One of the most pernicious forms of theft is the invisible tax that is described as inflation.
345. 24:36Many of you, even on your jobs, you have what they call cola, cost of living increases,
346. 24:41to where inflation is treated as if it is an inescapable automatic reality.
347. 24:47And the truth is that inflation is the product of debt consumption fiscal policies.
348. 24:55That's just the truth.
349. 24:57And so I just wanted to take a moment to remind you of that because when you see these notions
350. 25:04repeated, it's not anything new, it's rinse and repeat, oh, we need to tax the rich, we
351. 25:08need to do this.
352. 25:09And people say tax the rich and they don't even consider who pays income taxes now.
353. 25:18who pays the overwhelming majority of income taxes now.
354. 25:22And you have the phenomenon, and we talked about it before,
355. 25:25like New York Governor's Cathy Hocho
356. 25:28is basically crying for, which he said,
357. 25:31rich New Yorkers to move back to New York
358. 25:34because they need your tax revenue
359. 25:38because you have all of these policies.
360. 25:40You know, like the Islamianist,
361. 25:44Mom Donnie's city-owned grocery stores.
362. 25:47I'm sure that's gonna work well.
363. 25:49It's going to be the DMV applied to produce.
364. 25:52Surely that won't go wrong.
365. 25:54Won't be anything wrong there.
366. 25:59I just wanted to present this so people
367. 26:01can have a better understanding of how these things unfold.
368. 26:04And these are not benign, innocent ideas.
369. 26:08They always have a motivation.
370. 26:11They always have a result.
371. 26:12And then you have that combined with the revelations of fraud
372. 26:17that are transpiring around our country.
373. 26:19And a lot of it was exposed by Nick Shirley in Minnesota
374. 26:22and in other places that that fraud,
375. 26:25once again is brought to you by regressives
376. 26:27because the fraud wouldn't be possible
377. 26:28without the massive tax revenue,
378. 26:31that is forcibly confiscated from the American citizens.
379. 26:36And then you think about it, the billions of dollars,
380. 26:38and I have store after store right now,
381. 26:39I can show you people, illegal aliens and others,
382. 26:42they're driving like Mercedes-Benz's and other things,
383. 26:44while you have others that are hard working,
384. 26:46working feverishly to provide for their families,
385. 26:49they don't own those things.
386. 26:53And it's amazing that we can't, or should I say,
387. 26:55we have not sought to crush the fraud,
388. 26:58to stand out the fraud, but let you or I try
389. 27:02to escape our federal tax bills and see what happens.
390. 27:05You know what I'm saying?
391. 27:05And listen, y'all know I'm an equal opportunity,
392. 27:08opportunity truth teller.
393. 27:10It boggles my mind, and Representative Jim Burchett
394. 27:13from Tennessee said this, it boggles my mind
395. 27:15how quickly the doge cuts in the conversations
396. 27:18around the Department of Governmental Efficiency
397. 27:20completely went away.
398. 27:22Have y'all noticed that?
399. 27:23And what did representatives in Burchin say?
400. 27:25Tim Burchin said Elon must be able to move as fast as he can
401. 27:29because if he don't move fast enough,
402. 27:31what you're gonna find is you're gonna have dirt
403. 27:33in members of both primary and political parties.
404. 27:35And because of that bipartisan,
405. 27:38also known as uni-party willingness
406. 27:41to allow the scams to continue
407. 27:43because many of those people are beneficiaries of the scams,
408. 27:47they're gonna shut it down.
409. 27:48And what's happened?
410. 27:49Do you hear anybody talking about doge now?
411. 27:52other than me
412. 27:57anybody
413. 27:59those cuts in that any of that has been codified
414. 28:04now
415. 28:04it's not been codified
416. 28:09those things those scams those
417. 28:12federal fraud federal fraud
418. 28:15and you have the congressional slush fund to pay out
419. 28:19uh... sexual assault and harassment claims
420. 28:25you know like i talked earlier this week about representative swalwell
421. 28:28resigning from Congress and then old Tony Gonzalez
422. 28:30resigns from Congress as well.
423. 28:34And it's represented as if both of those things
424. 28:36happened contemporaneously.
425. 28:38No, they didn't happen.
426. 28:39But do you think anybody in DC was surprised about Swalwell?
427. 28:42You know, Frank Fang.
428. 28:47And this is honestly one of the major reasons why the Epstein
429. 28:51saga remains an outsized notion in the minds
430. 28:57of many of the American citizens
431. 28:58because the idea of having people in positions of power
432. 29:02who are compromised because of their hedonistic
433. 29:05and let's just say it this way,
434. 29:09abhorrent and deviant sexual lifestyles
435. 29:11that they're easy to manipulate and control.
436. 29:15You think anybody was surprised about Swalwell?
437. 29:20But what happened?
438. 29:22Swalwell just became a PR problem.
439. 29:26But nobody in DC is surprised about it.
440. 29:31So much so that there is,
441. 29:32and I have this in my stack,
442. 29:34Representative Anna Paulina Luna posted this
443. 29:37And honestly, it made me sick of my stomach.
444. 29:39She posted this today, this morning at 11.14 AM.
445. 29:43She put, quote, a friendly reminder
446. 29:45that house oversight subpoenaed the records
447. 29:48of the Congressional Sexual Erasmid Slush Fund,
448. 29:50and we will be releasing them.
449. 29:52Maybe we'll see more resignations.
450. 29:53You never know, hashtag trash day.
451. 29:57That's probably true, but can I tell you something?
452. 29:59It makes me sick of my stomach,
453. 30:00that everybody knows there's a Congressional Slush Fund
454. 30:03to pay harassment claims.
455. 30:05You know what a, you know what a funds come from?
456. 30:09tax day
457. 30:11a per fourteenth
458. 30:13spin around in bobby since it's been around forever it has been around forever
459. 30:17it has been around forever
460. 30:19but we just we can not in go on and
461. 30:21and people in congress and in how many times these types of things how many
462. 30:25times what that there people are elected and you know these people were so
463. 30:27committed
464. 30:28when they were elected
465. 30:30then they get the d c
466. 30:31like it is the total favor
467. 30:33what what happens
468. 30:40is disgusting
469. 30:42reading representative
470. 30:44paulina lunus
471. 30:45X tweet post, whatever you wanna call it.
472. 30:48No, I'm sorry.
473. 30:49Eli, it's a tweet, bro.
474. 30:51I'm sorry.
475. 30:52What are you gonna call it?
476. 30:53An X?
477. 30:53It can't call it an X.
478. 30:56It's a tweet.
479. 30:57It made me nauseous.
480. 30:58It made me nauseous because it made me think about
481. 31:06all these people know about Swalwell.
482. 31:10His staffers are the ones that
483. 31:13accused him publicly first of criminal sexual assault.
484. 31:21People that had worked for him.
485. 31:23And then you rewinded it up a little bit.
486. 31:25Don't you recall, he was one of the main ones trying to go in on Brett Kavanaugh during his
487. 31:29confirmation hearing.
488. 31:30Remember that?
489. 31:35But he goes from that to all of these other things as the allegations include and it's just
490. 31:40disgusting.
491. 31:41And you see that it's a bipartisan cesspool because you have the Tony Gonzalez situation,
492. 31:48which this is a new, the adulterous affair happened several years ago.
493. 31:55And then when the woman who had the affair with him committed suicide, then it became a
494. 32:07bigger issue.
495. 32:08But the adultery really wasn't a non issue for the people in DC primarily.
496. 32:16So it's just one of those things that's sickening to consider.
497. 32:19But this is where I want to come to rest.
498. 32:21That all that fraud and the slush fund is created by your tax dollars in mind and to truly consider
499. 32:32Whether or not this other smut that abounds in a something called ugly Hollywood,
500. 32:39they call DC ugly Hollywood, that abounds in ugly Hollywood, is that a reflection of the smut
501. 32:46that abounds in our society? Isaiah said the whole head sick.

509. 33:29Hello, I'm Sam Roor, President of the American Pastors Network, a growing national network
510. 33:34of pastors committed to the authority of scripture and preaching the whole Council of God.
511. 33:39We believe biblical obedience is the foundation for revival and impacting our culture for Christ
512. 33:43is our duty.
513. 33:44For too long, the pulpits of America have been silent on the important issues, such as marriage
514. 33:49and family and assault on learn-ability.
515. 33:51Join us in the battle for truth on Stand in the Gap weekend Sunday evenings at 6 p.m. on

517. 34:00Faith advisors must be faithful.
518. 34:04This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian World View.
519. 34:07Others have always surrounded themselves with spiritual advisors in the hope they will receive
520. 34:11wisdom from God or the gods.
521. 34:14The Egyptian pharaoh had his wise men and sorcerers.
522. 34:17The kings of Judah and Israel had their prophets and priests.
523. 34:21President Trump has his own White House Faith Office of Religious Advisors, led by prosperity
524. 34:26preacher Paula White-Cain, which also includes evangelical leaders Franklin Graham and Robert
525. 34:32Jeffress.
526. 34:34The most important issue is that the faith advisor followed the example of the Old Testament
527. 34:38prophet, Makiah, who said, as the Lord lives, what the Lord says to me, that I shall speak.
528. 34:45Here are most recent programs on this issue at theChristianworldview.org and then join
529. 34:49us this weekend for another topic that will sharpen your worldview.
530. 34:53Listen to the Christian worldview with David Wheaton, Saturday mornings at 8 Central on
531. 34:57American Family Radio.
532. 35:04The Hamilton Quarter podcast and one-minute commentaries are available at aFR.net back
533. 35:10to the Hamilton Quarter on American Family Radio.
534. 35:15Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham Hamilton the third here.
535. 35:18Another thing I wanted to clear up or should I say expound upon a bit further from my T.I.
536. 35:25interview earlier was this National Popular Vote Compact.
537. 35:34I hope Virginians understand just how much they were duped by now.
538. 35:41I mean, the former CIA agent now Virginia governor, Abigail Spamberger, you know,
539. 35:48what's one of the things the CIA is known for, Mr. Rosa.
540. 35:52Line, line.
541. 35:53We not give you the professional description.
542. 35:55He's about to say, he's a misdirection in subterfuge.
543. 35:59Not lying.
544. 35:59That what they're known for.
545. 36:00They lie.
546. 36:01They lie like a rug.
547. 36:02They lie.
548. 36:03Known to lie, campaigned as a quote unquote moderate as soon as she was sworn in, the
549. 36:13mask was off.
550. 36:14You know, and because they have unanimous government among the Regressives in Virginia,
551. 36:22they ram through, you know, you take your pick, what's the spooky dude named George
552. 36:29Soros?
553. 36:30It was the George Soros buffet line.
554. 36:33You know, the George Sore, Boofey line.
555. 36:36Some of y'all listening to me remember this when I was a young, young man and a little boy
556. 36:40growing up in New Orleans, they had a furniture store and the, the, we called the special man.
557. 36:47You want to buy a furniture?
558. 36:48You go see the special man.
559. 36:49The special man would say, let him have it.
560. 36:53Let him have it.
561. 36:54That's the Spamburger saying to the George Sore, let him have it.
562. 36:58Whatever you want.
563. 36:59That's what he gets.
564. 37:00That's what he gets.
565. 37:02And that's been attacked, it's been employed all over the country and contested areas to
566. 37:09where those who would be regressive say, just say you're moderate, just say it, which shows
567. 37:14you the other contempt they have for the American populace.
568. 37:17Because the assumption is, oh, nobody's going to check.
569. 37:19You could just say whatever you want to say about yourself.
570. 37:21Nope, I was going to try to verify whether that is true.
571. 37:24But if you'd used I have a voter guide, you would have known, now she's lying.
572. 37:27That's not who she is.
573. 37:31being said amongst the legislation that she signed, one of the major things, Virginians,
574. 37:37if you're listening, I know we have a contingent, a significant audience in Virginia. You have
575. 37:44an election coming up next week, Virginia 21st, I'm sorry, April 21st, to where you're
576. 37:49going to be voting on Governor Spamburgers, signed, sealed, delivered, redistricting plan.
577. 37:59And though the state of Virginia is considered a purple state in terms of its makeup, Spamburger's
578. 38:10redistricting plan will completely decimate any prospect of there being a balance of representation
579. 38:18in terms of congressional representation from there.
580. 38:21The Virginia congressional delegation will look just like its state's legislature if Spamburger's
581. 38:27playing passes. But in addition to that, she just signed into law, it just happened, that
582. 38:34Virginia will now change the way they allocate their electoral votes. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
583. 38:42They've signed on to the National Popular Vote Compact. Now I want to be clear about something.
584. 38:46The National Popular Vote Compact has a trigger, a conditional trigger that only comes into effect
585. 38:53if there are enough signatories to the compact to represent 270 electoral votes,
586. 38:57which is the number of electoral votes that's necessary
587. 39:00for a candidate for the presidency to be elected president of the United States by the Electoral College.
588. 39:06Virginia has 13 electoral votes,
589. 39:10as it stands currently in order for a candidate,
590. 39:13well, should I say, as it stood prior to the change,
591. 39:18and prior to, as it stands currently until the change goes into effect,
592. 39:21and that will require another forty eight electoral votes to join the national
593. 39:25public vote compact
594. 39:26uh... but as it stands currently
595. 39:29the way that virginians vote in the state whoever wins the majority
596. 39:33of votes in the state
597. 39:34that's how the state cast its electoral college votes
598. 39:39but with virginia virginia entering the national popular vote compact
599. 39:43what they're saying even if the virginians in the state
600. 39:47let's say vote for a republican presidential candidate
601. 39:53the Virginians vote will not matter
602. 39:56if the national popular vote favors the Democrat candidate.
603. 40:02So the national popular vote compact literally has
604. 40:05within it the capacity to absolutely nullify
605. 40:09Virginia's votes for the presidency
606. 40:12as long as enough Californians and New Yorkers
607. 40:17and citizens in Illinois, if they all decide
608. 40:20they want a candidate other than who the Virginians want,
609. 40:23Abigail Spamberger just down the law that says that we are going to cast our Electoral
610. 40:27College votes according to the votes of other people.
611. 40:30That's what she's agreed to do.
612. 40:33Now the whole purpose, and this is why you have to study history for yourself, because
613. 40:36people will try to offer a revisionist idea concerning the purpose for the Electoral College.
614. 40:47The purpose of the Electoral College from which they're Genesis was to require the chief executive
615. 40:53of the federal government to be elected by a cross section of citizens in the entire United
616. 41:02States of America.
617. 41:04The debate, and you can read this for yourself, read the Federalist Papers, read James Madison's
618. 41:08notes on the Constitutional Convention, the debate was how do we balance the interest of
619. 41:12a large state at the time, like New York, against those of a smaller state like Rhode
620. 41:18Island, like Maine?
621. 41:24How do we balance the interest of large population centers alongside those of smaller population
622. 41:33centers?
623. 41:36So the conclusion in the 1787 Constitution Convention was that it was not sufficient to simply rely
624. 41:44on a popular vote because if a popular vote is all as necessary, then candidates for the
625. 41:48office of the presidency would only have to win urban population centers.
626. 41:55out population today, you literally could have a candidate if they win California, they
627. 42:01win New York, pick one or two other states, they don't even have to go to another state
628. 42:09to win because we have other states with large land masses, but the population isn't the same.
629. 42:19But the national populist vote compact is an in-runner around the wisdom of the electoral
630. 42:23college.
631. 42:29And I mentioned it, if you want to talk about regressive ideology, can you imagine a more
632. 42:34more regressive notion than to say that I am willing, as the governor of my state, to say
633. 42:37that I want to sign on to an agreement that even if my state votes against what other states
634. 42:42want, we will cast our state's entire electoral college ballots slate according to what other
635. 42:48states do. Now, I want to be clear about something. The electoral college, the constitution grants
636. 42:54to each state the lawful authority to determine how they're going to use their electoral votes.
637. 43:01So the majority of the states right now says whoever wins our state, that's who gets our
638. 43:04electoral college votes. States like Nebraska do it a little bit differently. They allow for
639. 43:08a circumstance where you can win individual congressional districts and you can get an
640. 43:13additional set of electoral college votes depending on your performance in the entire
641. 43:18state. That's how Nebraska has decided to do it. So I'm not saying it's unconstitutional
642. 43:22for states to determine how they want their to design how the electoral college votes will
643. 43:29be cast, but what I am saying is that trying to circumvent the Electoral College by signing
644. 43:36on to a national popular vote compact is it in running around the Constitution because
645. 43:41you're basically amending the intended and express purposes of Constitution without actually
646. 43:45amending the Constitution.
647. 43:49That's what I'm saying.
648. 43:50So, I wanted to explain that to people and it's vitally important, vitally important for
649. 44:00Virginia's to understand that as you're going to vote Tuesday next week.
650. 44:10And I'm doing this because we've been the one,
651. 44:13we've been spending a lot of time on international issues lately,
652. 44:15but I've thought it was important to spend some time on some domestic issues.
653. 44:23And that's one of them. And it's a very important one. Now,
654. 44:28I know that the whole gerrymandering thing, it cuts both ways. I understand that.
655. 44:37But what I'm hoping that you begin to realize the Spanberger tactic is,
656. 44:44being employed, employed over and over and over and over and over again. And America people
657. 44:50continue to fall for it, continue to fall for it. Have a couple of other things that I want
658. 45:01to get to here. Now I want to toggle over to some international issues. And this, this
659. 45:11just broke really yesterday. In Spain, they have basically a socialist government. Spain's
660. 45:21Prime Minister, believe his name is Sanchez, just announced that they are moving to legalize
661. 45:29500,000 former illegal alien Muslims in the state, in the nation, I'm sorry, of Spain.
662. 45:42Now, the significance of this is because Spain is a part of the European Union.
663. 45:51And what happens in Spain has the potential to impact all of the European Union as well
664. 46:00as England, the EU, because they have what they call the Shenzhen zone.
665. 46:05I may be mispronouncing that.
666. 46:07The Shenzhen zone, the Shenzhen area within the EU.
667. 46:13What that means is that if Spain legalizes their illegal aliens, then those illegal aliens
668. 46:20can and hear me clearly here settle permanently in any EU country after five years.
669. 46:28Permanent Lee.
670. 46:32Not just doing a little bit of history.
671. 46:33Remember we had Bill Federer on.
672. 46:34He explained how historically the Muslims invaded Spain and occupied Spain for almost
673. 46:41seven centuries.
674. 46:46Seven centuries.
675. 46:48And there are people who talk about the Crusades, but they always decontextualize Crusades.
676. 46:53And no doubt about it, there were horrors, egregious evils that occurred during the Crusades.
677. 47:02But you know what people usually leave out?
678. 47:04That the Crusades were a response to the Ottoman Caliphate.
679. 47:10They usually leave that out of the conversation.
680. 47:13They act as if, well, you know what, you had a bunch of people there and nothing better to
681. 47:15do.
682. 47:16And they're sitting around, but cross on their church, you know what, they decide they want
683. 47:18to wake up and go kill a bunch of people.
684. 47:19That's the way they try to explain the Crusades.
685. 47:21They don't explain the Crusades as a response to Muslim conquest and colonialism.
686. 47:31They don't explain it that way.
687. 47:36And I've said before, and we talked about this before, this is not an effort to indict
688. 47:41all Muslims and things of that nature.
689. 47:44But the history tells a story that's being repeated right now.
690. 47:48That's being repeated right now.
691. 47:55In many ways, I have a clip from Tommy Robinson.
692. 47:59Some of you may be familiar with him.
693. 48:00He's an activist in England.
694. 48:02And he's been jailed because of the hate speech laws and all kinds of things.
695. 48:08And he's like, man, I'm just trying to tell the truth to warn our people and really try
696. 48:12to warn Americans to wake up before it's too late for you here.
697. 48:16But he just talks about this clip is going to talk about how rape has ascended as a result
698. 48:22of Islamic migration in Europe and the UK.
699. 48:27Listen to and watch clip number four.
700. 48:29This is him on Tim Poole's podcast.
701. 48:32It's time we rob it in clip number four. Go. Okay. Yeah, they're not here to work. No,
702. 48:35they're not here to assimilate or integrate. They're here to dominate. And that's not every
703. 48:39Muslim. Yeah, but the per se, you have to look at the broad numbers and I'll give you some numbers.
704. 48:43Yeah. In the UK, Muslim men make up 3% of the population. They're responsible for 90% of the
705. 48:48convictions for rape gangs, 90% from a 3% population. Now 30% of men convicted are called Muhammad.
706. 48:54If you go to Sweden, 63% of the rapes, Muslim migrants, there's about 15% Muslim population,
707. 48:59but 63% of the rapes Paris, 77% of the rapes are Muslim migrants. Austria, 48% of the rapes are
708. 49:05Muslim migrants. Germany, 58% of the rapes are Muslim migrants. Now, all these things are migration
709. 49:12and immigration is meant to benefit the nation. So if we look in Germany, since Angela Merkel,
710. 49:17I just said 58% of the rapes are foreign national Muslim migrants. 11% of the rapes in that country
711. 49:24last year were by Syrian nationals.
712. 49:27They're from Syria.
713. 49:28They're passed from Syria, they're born in Syria,
714. 49:31they've been brought into the country.
715. 49:32We're told, Germans are told, for diversity,
716. 49:35it's not for diversity.
717. 49:36You opened your borders, you let a million men in,
718. 49:37you didn't know who they were.
719. 49:38Just look at the rape statistics that have gone up
720. 49:41from 2017 to 2022, the rapes have gone up 45% in Germany.
721. 49:46In the UK, 2023 to 2023 are raped from from 8,800 to 8,000.
722. 49:518,000 in the 28,000 rapes and that's gone from 8,000 to 8,000 88,000 now
723. 49:58You take that same you take that same statistic and go another 20 years
724. 50:01You're talking a million rapes 880,000 rapes and nothing's gonna stop it
725. 50:05I'm not nothing stopping it
726. 50:07They're not stopping it the men that are coming in a hostile
727. 50:10An afghan is 22 times more likely to commit a sexual assault on raping Britain than any other nationality the British nationality
728. 50:16Why are they coming in?
729. 50:18They have to be an honest assessment about it and one of the major questions is whether or not that conduct is a violation of
730. 50:27What is taught in the Hadith in the Quran or is it consistent with it? We have to have an honest conversation about it. Y'all have a great evening
