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. 0:33Good evening, everyone.
12. 0:35Welcome to the Hamilton Corner.
13. 0:36My name is Abraham Hamilton.
14. 0:37The third I am the host of this program
15. 0:39joined by the Corner Contingent.
16. 0:41Right across from me, my man, 100 grand Mr. Bobby.
17. 0:44R- R- R- R- R- R- R- R- R size, manning the board,
18. 0:48and in the screening room we have produced
19. 0:50extraordinary, often imitated, but never duplicated,
20. 0:52the real Jay Mac, and we are ready to rock and roll
21. 0:55with today's edition of the program at this very moment.
22. 0:59Many of you, if not most of you, are making your transition
23. 1:02from your part time jobs, where you generate an income
24. 1:05to your full time jobs, where you cultivate an outcome,
25. 1:09and as you do so, I want to remind you
26. 1:11to do so with intentionality.
27. 1:13understanding the primacy that God places on family and welcoming his view as
28. 1:22communicated to us through his word to govern God and to God your engagements.
29. 1:29As the Apostle Peter said, all things that pertain to life and Godliness, he's
30. 1:34provided for us in his holy word that illuminates to our minds via his spirit,
31. 1:40where the Spirit of God will remind us of all things that Jesus taught and it is imperative
32. 1:48that we embrace it.
33. 1:49I am going to explain as we go throughout the show today and provide an example, a pretty
34. 1:59pertinent example of what happens when you have the hiss and the suggestions of the talking
35. 2:06snake laundered through academia.
36. 2:09There is a concerted effort to deceive palpable deception.
37. 2:15That's why we did the show a few days ago
38. 2:17about the Gibeonites who were actually hivites,
39. 2:21who acted as if they came from a faraway place,
40. 2:26solely to deceive the Israelites to making a covenant
41. 2:30with them.
42. 2:33And that deception is plintious in our society.
43. 2:40But as you are making your transition,
44. 2:42You have the opportunity to execute the King's Commission starting right in your home.
45. 2:46It's vitally important that we are ambassadors of the King of glory and the highways and by
46. 2:54ways of life and society.
47. 2:57But we cannot seek to do so.
48. 2:59And let me say it this way, we can.
49. 3:00We should not seek to do so at the expense of our homes and our families.
50. 3:05We have to get back to the reality that the gospel of the kingdom of God advances a person
51. 3:14at a time, a neighbor at a time, a family at a time, a brother who has been a hero in
52. 3:21the faith to me, who has become a friend recently as Dr. Del Tackett, formerly of Focus on the
53. 3:26Family, who has been on the show before I was on his show earlier this week.
54. 3:35And he explains how for the first three centuries of the New Testament church that would grew
55. 3:42from 12 men to the entirety of the Roman Empire expanded in those first 300 years from neighbor
56. 3:51to neighbor.
57. 3:53That's how he grew.
58. 3:54It wasn't this, it didn't have a marketing budget.
59. 4:00They didn't have a slick PR campaign with the spokesman tuning in now.
60. 4:04You know, it didn't have a tour with light's camera action.
61. 4:07They had people who loved Jesus enough to take Him at His Word and love their neighbors
62. 4:11enough to recognize that the greatest thing I could ever do for my neighbor is communicate
63. 4:16to them the necessity of having eternal life.
64. 4:20There's only one name under Heaven by which men must be saved and that is the name of Jesus
65. 4:25Christ.
66. 4:26That is what we get the privilege to do starting right in our homes and working outwardly from
67. 4:32there.
68. 4:33How do we go?
69. 4:34Second Corinthians chapter 10.
70. 4:36Second Corinthians chapter 10,
71. 4:38verses three through five.
72. 4:41Very familiar passage of scripture.
73. 4:42This is not going to be novel to many of you,
74. 4:48but this is so necessary.
75. 4:50It's just fun how these people keep recirculating.
76. 4:53We got TVs on in the studio,
77. 4:54got Austin Goldsby on one of the screens,
78. 4:58and he worked in the Obama administration,
79. 4:59so now he's the chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank
80. 5:03of Chicago.
81. 5:04I wonder how that happens.
82. 5:05Isn't it amazing how these people keep popping up
83. 5:07in different places?
84. 5:09You know, it's amazing.
85. 5:12To the Word of God.
86. 5:13Second Corinthians chapter 10, verses three through five.
87. 5:19This is what God's holy word says.
88. 5:22For though we, though we walk in the flesh,
89. 5:25we do not war according to the flesh.
90. 5:29For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh,
91. 5:33but divinely powerful for the destruction of forces.
92. 5:36So some translations transliterate that verbiage
93. 5:40as to the destruction, to the demolition,
94. 5:43the demolishing of strongholds.
95. 5:46All right, verse five, for we are destroying speculations
96. 5:52or other transliterations say their imagination.
97. 5:58So we are destroying speculations
98. 6:00and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God.
99. 6:05We are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ.
100. 6:10This is so vitally important because much of what is promulgated against the Lord's people
101. 6:16and this time is to get us to conflate what is real and what is not real.
102. 6:22For when the Scripture says, well, we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh.
103. 6:25For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but are divinely powerful.
104. 6:31Dr. Rathbend would say that the weapons of our warfare are not of this world, but they are
105. 6:37of the real world.
106. 6:40The real world is the spiritual world.
107. 6:42That is the real world.
108. 6:44That is the world where we who have placed our faith in Jesus Christ for salvation will
109. 6:51spend eternity and enjoy eternal life.
110. 6:55Those who reject the free gift of salvation will spend their eternity in the real world,
111. 7:01but suffering eternal damnation.
112. 7:05It is vitally important that we understand what the real world truly, truly is.
113. 7:13The weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, meaning they are not natural in origin.
114. 7:21Their potency is in governed by the natural order.
115. 7:28Human familiarity doesn't dictate the potency, the effectiveness of the utilization of our
116. 7:36weaponry.
117. 7:39In contrast to that natural orientation and disposition, the Lord has revealed to us in
118. 7:44his holy word, but that the weapons of our warfare, which are not fleshly, they are divinely powerful.
119. 7:50They are mighty through God.
120. 7:56That reference to divinely powerful is a communication of their origin.
121. 8:01Their origin is in God.
122. 8:03Their capacity is dictated by God.
123. 8:07The utilization is ordained by God.
124. 8:10Their effectiveness is stewarded it and shepherded it by God.
125. 8:17But it's incumbent upon us to understand that, to believe that, to live as if we believe
126. 8:24that and to implement our divinely powerful weaponry as if we do believe that.
127. 8:33reference to the capacity of our warfare in their ability to destroy
128. 8:39fortresses, to demolish strongholds. The Lord wouldn't have said that they were
129. 8:47strongholds or fortresses if they were not. Fortress like, if they were not,
130. 8:52strongholds. The capacity for these strongholds to grip us have that capacity
131. 9:03from our vantage point. But the weaponry that the Lord has afforded us as a
132. 9:09capacity to obliterate them. And application of this weaponry is what enables us to do what
133. 9:20verse 5 says to destroy speculations, not entertain them, not, well, everybody has a reasonable
134. 9:27opinion, not, well, surely I can see the value in that. No, no, no. When we recognize that
135. 9:32these offerings are rooted in an anti-Christ disposition, there's no tiddly-winks to be played.
136. 9:43Now we destroy those speculations and I've explained before the great word for speculations there or imaginations in the King James is
137. 9:51Lagismos which is related to the root word from which we get the word logic from much of
138. 9:58The warfare and this is not to to to minimize what I say that this is the exclusive understanding
139. 10:04but much of the warfare that we engage in is to confront and to destroy
140. 10:10Antichrist ideologies that are offered in our society
141. 10:14to bind people that become strongholds in people's lives.
142. 10:22Have you noticed, this is just an example, have you noticed how reflexively people who
143. 10:27support the intentional slaughter of unborn children in the womb, have you noticed how
144. 10:33many of them are gripped by that position?
145. 10:38Do you think they've arrived at that fervent position merely by intellectual reasoning?
146. 10:46No, no, no, no.
147. 10:51To persuade men to be willing to encourage and even provide money to have their own offspring
148. 10:58murdered for moms, women who are moms.
149. 11:03This is when I have the privilege of meeting and talking to pregnant women, I don't say
150. 11:07you will be a mom, I tell them there are moms.
151. 11:10When you have the little baby growing inside of you are a mom.
152. 11:14to have the ideologies that would convince moms
153. 11:18to go and destroy their own children.
154. 11:23You think that's merely the product of rationality?
155. 11:26It's not.
156. 11:28There's a demonic ideology at the root
157. 11:31that undergirds all of this.
158. 11:33Not least to mention, and I won't get into the science
159. 11:35on this, but when you have a mom
160. 11:37and the baby is growing and her capacity to nurse her child
161. 11:40is growing and then they eliminate that,
162. 11:42how that impacts healthy breast tissue
163. 11:46how you can trace the ascendancy of things like breast cancer to the ascendancy of abortion
164. 11:52in our society.
165. 11:53But do you think that's the product of rationality alone?
166. 11:57It's not.
167. 11:59But the weapons of our warfare, not carnal, but their divinely power, their divinely powerful,
168. 12:05I'm sorry, for the destruction of fortresses.
169. 12:10And because of that, we, the people of God, have the opportunity, the wherewithal, the
170. 12:14the privileges, prerogative, and the responsibility to destroy
171. 12:20Lagi's Mass, ideologies that would derrival the truth of our Lord.
172. 12:27And we do this not because we're societal crusaders.
173. 12:34We don't do this because we want to assert our own unilateral notions
174. 12:37of rightness.
175. 12:38No, we do this because we love our God with all our heart, soul, mind,
176. 12:42strength we love God the true and living God with all our heart, soul, minds and strength.
177. 12:47And the second is like it.
178. 12:49We love our neighbor as ourselves.
179. 12:52The truth of the reality, the truth of the matter is that the harvest is plentiful, plentiful,
180. 12:59but the laborers are few.
181. 13:03Many in our world have eyes that are blinded, that are blinded.
182. 13:11When God has dispatched his people as his hands and feet to be vessels through whom he
183. 13:20opens blind eyes.
184. 13:24That's why we destroy the vain ideologies.
185. 13:27That's why we pray without ceasing.
186. 13:29That's why we're willing to engage even when it's not convenient for us.
187. 13:35That's why our trip to the grocery store, not just trips to the grocery store.
188. 13:41That's why when God gives us blessed us to live what we live that we recognize, man, this
189. 13:45is by God's divine, providence and assignment
190. 13:48that I am placed where I'm placed.
191. 13:49And my neighbor is across the street from me,
192. 13:51and my neighbor is beside me,
193. 13:52and another on the other side of me,
194. 13:55that my life is a life that I live on mission.
195. 13:58Because I recognize life on this side of eternity
196. 14:00is fleeting, and the evidence of the real world is imminent.
197. 14:10We live in light of the real world.
198. 14:13We live in light of eternity.
199. 14:15And it is the love of God that compels us
200. 14:21to compel men to be reconciled to God,
201. 14:25within all of the uncertainty that surrounds us.
202. 14:28It's all the more reason with fervor and zeal
203. 14:34with an urgency about ourselves that we communicate
204. 14:38that there's one name under heaven by which men must be saved.
205. 14:41And when these anti-Christ ideology,
206. 14:43whatever is in schism you wanna mention
207. 14:45that may not have rhythm,
208. 14:46are that we examine it under the white, hot scrutiny
209. 14:50God's holy word and cause those anti-crisis ideologies to fold before the King of Glory.
210. 15:00A discipleship minute with Joseph Parker.
211. 15:03We were made to do the will of God.
212. 15:06That's our design.
213. 15:07That's what will really fulfill us carrying out what he's called us to do.
214. 15:10Whereas as much as we think we know what we want to do, we really don't.
215. 15:14I think of the message of that great theologian, Dr. Seuss.
216. 15:17Of course, the story of Green Eggs and Ham, an interesting story.
217. 15:20Sam I am chasing, chases the fella, trying to convince him to eat green eggs in him.
218. 15:25And when he finally gives in he finally decides to eat him to get rid of Sam I am.
219. 15:30And when he tastes him he realizes, man I like this.
220. 15:34That's a beautiful example of the way the gospel is for people and people who finally
221. 15:39surrender to Jesus they come to realize. Jesus is what I've been looking for my whole life
222. 15:45and it's like something inside of them screams out, this is it. How important it is that we're
223. 15:50about God's business to helping people to find out what life is all about.
224. 15:53It's knowing Jesus and following Him as well.
225. 16:00I'm Rick Scarborough and this is my take.
226. 16:02The 2026 World Cup brought hundreds of thousands of visitors from 48 nations to 11 American cities.
227. 16:09Each arrived carrying an image of America shaped by headlines, politics and stereotypes.
228. 16:15And most left surprised saying America's nothing like the media told us.
229. 16:19Fans marveled at the everyday things we take for granted.
230. 16:23the freedom of travel, overflowing super stores, oversized meal portions, and above all the warmth
231. 16:28and hospitality of the people they met here. The lasting story isn't the scoreboard,
232. 16:33it's how quickly first-hand experience overturned expectation. Replacing character with genuine admiration
233. 16:40for a great nation, when a stranger's open heart meets a stranger's open hand, the lies of the headlines
234. 16:47fall away. The world sees the goodness we've let politics of
235. 16:51cure. I'm Rick Scarborough and that's my take.
236. 16:55Shining light into the darkness. This is the Hamilton Corner, an
237. 17:08American family radio. Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham
238. 17:13Hamilton the third here. I'm going to play something for you now.
239. 17:16And I want you to pay close attention to it and I want you to see
240. 17:24if you're able to detect the hiss of the talking snake as you listen.
241. 17:30What I'm going to share with you is a clip from an interview by Ross Duthot, who was at this time,
242. 17:41and recently he made a change, and I'll explain that.
243. 17:44A New York Times columnist and an author who is moving over to CBS to work on their 60 Minutes program.
244. 17:52Ross, who thought is understood to be conservative.
245. 17:58And he is interviewing the Kent Professor of Law and History named Samuel Moen.
246. 18:07Samuel Moen.
247. 18:08All right.
248. 18:10Samuel Moen has, you know, the Ivy League pedigree, his undergraduate, I'm sorry, his
249. 18:15Juris Doctorate degree came from Harvard Law School.
250. 18:18He has a PhD in History from the University of California.
251. 18:22And as I mentioned, he is the Kent professor of law and history.
252. 18:27That is a particular distinguished title that he bears as he works at Yale University's Law
253. 18:35School.
254. 18:36He's one of the people.
255. 18:38If you would send your child to Yale Law School, he would be one of the people who would be
256. 18:43teaching your child at the time that they might have made it to law school.
257. 18:48They probably would be adults.
258. 18:50by then, but I want you to hear because Ross do thought, do you do thought is responding
259. 19:00to the idea that Samuel Moyn who is presenting and just so you can distinguish the voices Samuel
260. 19:06Moyn is a person who said, well, you know, I got to myself a little bit of hot water by
261. 19:10espousing these ideas.
262. 19:14And I want you to listen, listen closely because these are the types of ideas guys that
263. 19:23are being filtered through our society.
264. 19:28Like if you've ever wondered,
265. 19:29how could these people, they're so educated,
266. 19:32how could they come to these conclusions?
267. 19:36And as you listen, I also want you to consider,
268. 19:40what does God's word have to say about any of this?
269. 19:44All right, listen closely.
270. 19:46This clip is going to be about a minute and 17 seconds long.
271. 19:51This is Samuel Moyen espousing some, well, let me just let you listen to it, and then I'll
272. 19:59provide commentary thereafter. Listen to and watch clip number five, clip five, go.
273. 20:04I've gotten in some hot water for proposing. We consider over waiting the votes of younger
274. 20:10people or assigning the youngest eligible voters proxy votes for the unrepresented children of
275. 20:16of our country.
276. 20:18So those are edgy.
277. 20:19Why not assign them to those children's parents?
278. 20:22Well, because there's a divergence of interest
279. 20:25between parents and children.
280. 20:27And I think it's likelier that young people,
281. 20:31not people who are raising families,
282. 20:34will have the best insight into the interests of children.
283. 20:40Whereas you, if you were awarded five-
284. 20:42I think that's dast.
285. 20:43I think it's absurd to imagine that a 24-year-old recent college graduate has a better assessment
286. 20:51of the interests of my own children than I do.
287. 20:54I say this with all due respect to 24-year-old recent college graduates, of whom I hope to
288. 20:59be the parent of in nine years or so.
289. 21:02I think parents generally confuse the interests of their family with the interests of their
290. 21:08children and part of our goal, I think, is parents, but also as a society is trying to
291. 21:15make sure that children aren't the hostages of their parents as much as we rely on parents
292. 21:21to raise them.
293. 21:22Now, did you hear that?
294. 21:26So the law professor, Samuel Mowing, is the one who's saying that his idea, this is his
295. 21:34brilliant idea and I want you to know that this was a part of a podcast episode during
296. 21:47which Samuel Moyen is lamenting the fact that he feels like older people are hoarding over
297. 21:56younger people.
298. 22:02So this kind professor of law and history, you know, all of his studies of history and
299. 22:08all of his studies of law and all of his efforts to train the next generation of lawyers.
300. 22:15Uh-huh.
301. 22:16Now, how many Supreme Court justices come from Yale, I have come from Yale Law School?
302. 22:22Mm-hmm.
303. 22:23Mm-hmm.
304. 22:25His idea is, well, he says we should wait the votes of younger voters, not just to be crystal
305. 22:34clear about what he means by that.
306. 22:36He means that younger voters votes should count more than older people's votes in our country.
307. 22:44Think about that.
308. 22:47On what basis?
309. 22:50Oh, no, not not protecting.
310. 22:51Oh, no, no.
311. 22:52He doesn't mean that older people are protecting younger people.
312. 22:55He means young, older people are keeping young people oppressed.
313. 23:02That's what he means.
314. 23:06I mean, he has a new book that he just put out that says, the title of it is this,
315. 23:11Jaren Talker, C in America, how the old are hoarding power and wealth and what to do
316. 23:16about it.
317. 23:17Hoarding power and wealth.
318. 23:22So his his his magnum opus of an idea is that we need to wait the votes of younger American
319. 23:31voters so that their votes count more than older Americans.
320. 23:37Now he didn't specify what is this cut off or older and younger.
321. 23:41Now I want to hear what I'm saying.
322. 23:48He wants to wait the votes for Americans who many of whom just finished the tide pod challenge.
323. 23:55Y'all know what that is?
324. 23:57Yeah.
325. 24:01And the reason why he wants to wait the votes for younger people is because I'm the younger
326. 24:06voters.
327. 24:07So these are people who will be over to the age of 18 who have the legal right to vote.
328. 24:12Younger voters votes should be waited more heavily because they should be voting as proxies for
329. 24:22children who are too young to vote, right?
330. 24:26And his reasoning for that is, did you hear him?
331. 24:29reason for that is that younger American voters will have a better understanding of the interests
332. 24:38of the children in our country.
333. 24:43I'm going to say this and I'm going to play it again for you.
334. 24:46Yeah, yeah, yeah.
335. 24:47To which Ross do thought interrupts and say, wait a minute, wait a minute.
336. 24:50Why should we assume that younger Americans will know better what the children in our
337. 24:57country want than their parents?
338. 25:00Why not if your idea is to wait the votes in favor in such a way to wear the children in
339. 25:07America are represented.
340. 25:09Why not allow the children's parents votes to be waited to represent their interest?
341. 25:17And did you hear his response?
342. 25:19His response was, and guys, I cannot make this stuff up.
343. 25:22I'm saying this and then I'm going to play it again so you can hear it just in case you
344. 25:25missed it.
345. 25:26He literally said out of his mouth.
346. 25:28Bobby had the audacity to be sat out of his mouth that younger voters, especially those
347. 25:34who are not raising families.
348. 25:35He said that have, will have the best, this is what he said, will have the best insights
349. 25:43into children's interests.
350. 25:45That's what he said to which Ross Dutto says, what are you kidding me?
351. 25:50You know, no shade to the 24 year old, you know, recent college graduate, but I think
352. 25:56I know better what my children's interests are than a 24 year old who don't live with
353. 26:04me and I never met my children, to which Samuel Moyen, Professor Moyen goes in and says, well,
354. 26:14you see, parents have this little problem.
355. 26:17You see, parents have this little pesky idea.
356. 26:20They tend to, you know, conflate their interests for their family with the interests of their
357. 26:28children saying that, you know, these parents tend to think that what they think is best
358. 26:34for their family that their children agree with it.
359. 26:37But the reality is, this is what Moyn said, children's interests are divergent from their
360. 26:43parents.
361. 26:44Guys, he said that all loud.
362. 26:47To what my immediate thought was, as well as, how do you know?
363. 27:02How do you know?
364. 27:04You are making all kind of assumptions and presumptions.
365. 27:10You have all kind of things that you're assuming in this.
366. 27:12And then he goes on to say, and this is how he ends his, I'm sorry, but his not just stupid,
367. 27:19insidious remarks.
368. 27:21He says, quote, a part of our goal is to make sure, and he says, as parents and as society,
369. 27:31that a part of our goal is to make sure children aren't the hostages of their parents, end quote.
370. 27:41the hostages of their parents.
371. 27:55Now, I want to remind this ain't no, this is not no young kid,
372. 27:57this is the Kent professor of law and history
373. 28:03at Yale University.
374. 28:10But this is nothing more than demonic ideology.
375. 28:14We just talked about 2 Corinthians chapter 10.
376. 28:16This is vain imaginations, demonic speculations,
377. 28:21but they're being laundered through academia.
378. 28:23This is, read Isaiah chapter one, two, and three.
379. 28:28What, why do we have things like, oh, I don't know,
380. 28:32certain ages before children could have driver's license?
381. 28:34Why do we have things about, you know,
382. 28:37you have to be a certain age to do make certain decisions
383. 28:38with your life?
384. 28:39Why do insurance companies charge more money
385. 28:42for younger people?
386. 28:42Is it because they're more risky or less risky as drivers?
387. 28:47Yet, Mr. Moore in here is saying that,
388. 28:50but the society needs to franchise,
389. 28:54and franchise the children.
390. 28:57And the best way to do so, you know,
391. 28:58since we're not gonna let children vote,
392. 29:00although I wonder if Samuel Moore
393. 29:02would be in favor of just letting children vote for themselves.
394. 29:09He says, we need to let younger people vote with weighted votes
395. 29:15because they need to be the proxies
396. 29:17for the interests of the children.
397. 29:18You see, because we don't wanna have a society
398. 29:21where the children are the hostages of their parents.
399. 29:28Hostages.
400. 29:31What does that sound like to you?
401. 29:34What does that sound like to you?
402. 29:35Now that I've explained that, I'm gonna play it one more time.
403. 29:37I'm not gonna play it again after this.
404. 29:38I want you to listen again after I explain that
405. 29:40because I know sometimes we can miss
406. 29:45some things as we're listening.
407. 29:46I'm gonna play it again, let's do it closely again.
408. 29:49It is clip number five.
409. 29:51Let's play it one more time, clip five, go.
410. 29:54I've gotten in some hot water for proposing.
411. 29:56We consider over waiting the votes of younger people
412. 30:00or assigning the youngest eligible voters proxy votes
413. 30:04for the unrepresented children of our country.
414. 30:07So those are edgy.
415. 30:08Why not assign them to those children's parents?
416. 30:12Well, because there's a divergence of interest
417. 30:15between parents and children.
418. 30:16And I think it's likelier that young people,
419. 30:20not people who are raising families
420. 30:24will have the best insight into the interests of children.
421. 30:29Whereas you, if you were awarded five-
422. 30:31I think that's a test.
423. 30:33I think it's absurd to imagine that a 24-year-old recent college graduate has a better assessment
424. 30:40of the interests of my own children than I do.
425. 30:43I say this with all due respect to 24-year-old recent college graduates, of whom I hope to
426. 30:49be the parent of in nine years or so.
427. 30:51I think parents generally confuse the interests of their family with the interests of their
428. 30:58children and part of our goal, I think, is parents, but also as a society is trying to make sure
429. 31:05that children aren't the hostages of their parents as much as we rely on parents to raise them.
430. 31:12Now, did you all hear all of that? This is wild, guys. This is wild, but this is what these people
431. 31:17really believe. This is what these people really believe. When you see policies and efforts made to
432. 31:28to separate children from their parents,
433. 31:30you know the whole thing,
434. 31:31you're separating families at the border.
435. 31:33No, this guy wants to separate families in America.
436. 31:35He wants to separate households via vote.
437. 31:43Does that sound familiar to you?
438. 31:45Some of the same types of things that was poised
439. 31:48or started presented by Moses, Mordecai, Mark's,
440. 31:51Levvy and Frederick Ingalls.
441. 31:52Children don't need to have a particular affinity
442. 31:55and relationship and investment in their biological families.
443. 31:59I need to be made children of the state.
444. 32:01The 24 year, the ones who best represent
445. 32:05the interest of children must be younger voters.
446. 32:08And notice what he said,
447. 32:09younger voters who are not raising families themselves.
448. 32:12Did you hear that?
449. 32:13That was one of his caveats,
450. 32:14who are not raising families themselves.
451. 32:17They will know best what children's interests are
452. 32:21to which Ross Duthot says,
453. 32:22that's absurd, man.
454. 32:23That's absurd, my boy, because it is absurd.
455. 32:26Now Ross, do thought knows it's absurd.
456. 32:28I know it's absurd.
457. 32:29You know it's absurd, but how many others do you think
458. 32:32know it's absurd all around our country?
459. 32:36How many will say, well, this is the Yale professor
460. 32:42of law and history, surely, his idea has merit
461. 32:46because of his pedigree.
462. 32:51Surely Abraham, you shouldn't be so quick
463. 32:53to discount his ideas because look at his academic achievement
464. 32:57and the position that he holds within our society.
465. 33:04Now, add into your calculus what we've been talking about over recent weeks concerning
466. 33:10voluntary familial astrangement. Do you see the line of commonality that is flowing through all
467. 33:17of these kinds? My man was able to tie on in his glasses, you know, no shade to the spectacles,
468. 33:26you know what I mean, no shade to that. And he's speaking and calm and caustic tones
469. 33:33and literally seeping the odes of hell.
470. 33:39I mean, screw tape and wormwood are all throughout
471. 33:43his commentary, but it's incumbent upon us
472. 33:46to have the discernment necessary to where we destroy
473. 33:50Lagi's Moss like that.
474. 34:00AFA action takes attacks on the family seriously.
475. 34:04The enemies of the family constantly employ new tactics
476. 34:07to try to sneak past our radar.

485. 34:30At Vitekliano, author of the article,
486. 34:33Foundations from the Past.
487. 34:35I wanted readers to understand that the founders
488. 34:37of our nation knew that for this amazing experiment in Liberty to succeed, the Christian
489. 34:44faith and the morality that flows from it had to exist at the heart of the Republic.
490. 34:51It's a special issue of the Stand Magazine, toward a more perfect union, available at
491. 34:56AFA.net, slash the Stand.
492. 35:00The Hamilton Quarter Podcast and One-Minute Commentaries are available at AFR.net.
493. 35:10to the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
494. 35:16Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner.
495. 35:18I'm just, I'm still reeling from that kind of intellectual
496. 35:22drivel that is bantied about in our society.
497. 35:28And part of the reason why I'm doing this, because many of you,
498. 35:31like me, will say, well, man, how did all these younger people
499. 35:38get so enamored with socialism?
500. 35:41This is how, this is how.
501. 35:45Marx postulated that the family was a bourgeoisie concept
502. 35:48in which children were oppressed by their parents.
503. 35:51Wives were oppressed by their husbands.
504. 35:54And we need to utilize societal measures
505. 35:58to alleviate that oppression.
506. 36:01You use different words
507. 36:02but he's communicating the same ideas.
508. 36:04Moin is, we don't wanna have a society where children
509. 36:08are the hostages of their parents.
510. 36:11And so to liberate them, we're gonna have unrelated
511. 36:1420-somethings, and 18-year-olds and 19-year-olds who have their votes weighted because they
512. 36:20will have the best interest of other people's children in mind.
513. 36:25That's what he's saying, man.
514. 36:32That's what he's saying.
515. 36:33And no matter how you cut it, when it boils down to brass taxes where rubber meets the
516. 36:39road, we are going to come down to whether man's word or God's word will prevail.
517. 36:43That's the bottom line.
518. 36:46I came across a blast from the past this week and I want to share it with you.
519. 36:52The late Justice Antonin Scalia in his, as only he can, I found some footage of him from
520. 37:01C-Span where he's speaking before a Senate committee, kind of similar to what Justice
521. 37:07Amy Coney Barrett did not too long ago, but notice there's a little different presentation.
522. 37:13And Justice Scalia goes on to explain, well, you want to know why our U.S. Constitution
523. 37:20is special.
524. 37:22And he provides an explanation that you don't hear this type of clarity and poignant articulation
525. 37:29very often.
526. 37:31And I thought it was important to bring to our audience here because he hits the nail on
527. 37:36the head.
528. 37:37And our Bill of Rights is important, but that's not the main game.
529. 37:43That's not the reason why our Constitution is special.
530. 37:48Other nations have had and do have, quote unquote, articulations of rights.
531. 37:54But our founders, as you're going to hear Justice Scalia, the late Justice Scalia explained,
532. 37:59our founders would say that those amount to nothing more than mere parchment guarantees,
533. 38:04meaning, and that's on paper, that ain't in real life.
534. 38:09Blast from the past, Justice Antonin Scalia, listen to this, it's two parts, but I'll start
535. 38:14Part 1, Clip number 6, Clip 6, Go.
536. 38:17If you think that a Bill of Rights is what sets us apart, you're crazy.
537. 38:24Every banana republic in the world has a Bill of Rights.
538. 38:28Every president for life has a Bill of Rights.
539. 38:32The Bill of Rights of the former evil empire, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was
540. 38:37much better than ours.
541. 38:38I mean it literally.
542. 38:40It was much better.
543. 38:41We guarantee freedom of speech and of the press.
544. 38:43Big deal.
545. 38:44freedom of the speech of the press, of street demonstrations and protest, and anyone who is caught
546. 38:51trying to suppress criticism of the government will be called to account. Whoa, that is wonderful
547. 38:57stuff. Of course, just words on paper, what our framers would have called a parchment guarantee.
548. 39:06And the reason is that the real constitution of the Soviet Union, you think of the word
549. 39:12Constitution. It doesn't mean a bill. It means structure. Say a person has a sound
550. 39:17Constitution. Here's a sound structure. The real Constitution of the Soviet Union,
551. 39:21which is what our framers debated that that whole summer in Philadelphia in 1787.
552. 39:28They didn't talk about the Bill of Rights. That was an afterthought, wasn't it? That
553. 39:33Constitution of the Soviet Union did not prevent the centralization of power in
554. 39:39in one person or in one party.
555. 39:42And when that happens, the game is over,
556. 39:44the Bill of Rights is just what our framers would call
557. 39:48a parchment guarantee.
558. 39:52To hear that, it's not merely the Bill of Rights,
559. 39:55the Bill of Rights is important, yes.
560. 39:58But everybody in a republic has their version
561. 40:01of a Bill of Rights.
562. 40:03The genius of our Constitution
563. 40:06is the separation of powers.
564. 40:10the decentralization of power.
565. 40:14Justice Scalia continues.
566. 40:16Clip number seven, go.
567. 40:19So the real key to the distinctiveness of America
568. 40:26is the structure of our government.
569. 40:28One part of it, of course, is the independence
570. 40:30of the judiciary.
571. 40:31But there's a lot more.
572. 40:34There are very few countries in the world, for example,
573. 40:36that have a bicameral legislature.
574. 40:39Oh, England has a house of lords for the time being,
575. 40:42but the House of Lords has no substantial power.
576. 40:44They can just make the commons pass a bill a second time.
577. 40:48France has a Senate, it's honorific.
578. 40:50Italy has a Senate, it's honorific.
579. 40:52Very few countries have two separate bodies
580. 40:56in the legislature equally powerful.
581. 40:58That's a lot of trouble, as you gentlemen doubtless know,
582. 41:02to get the same language through two different bodies
583. 41:06elected in a different fashion.
584. 41:09Very few countries in the world
585. 41:12have a separately elected chief executive.
586. 41:17Sometimes I go to York to talk about separation of powers.
587. 41:20And when I get there, I find that all I'm talking about
588. 41:24is independence of the judiciary.
589. 41:27Because the Europeans don't even try
590. 41:29to divide the two political powers,
591. 41:32the two political branches, the legislature,
592. 41:35and the chief executive.
593. 41:37In all of the parliamentary countries,
594. 41:39the chief executive is the creature of the legislature.
595. 41:41There's never any disagreement between them and the Prime Minister, as there is sometimes
596. 41:47between you and the President.
597. 41:49When there's a disagreement, they just kick them out.
598. 41:52They have no confidence vote, a new election, and they get a Prime Minister who agrees with
599. 41:56the legislature.
600. 41:59You see, and that's exactly how the functions in the parliamentary countries, generally speaking,
601. 42:03are the head of state is selected by the parliament.
602. 42:10It's not this division of authority.
603. 42:15The key to the specialness, if you will, of the United States' government structure, and
604. 42:22this is why I always explain that our Constitution must be understood and interpreted in light
605. 42:28of the Declaration of Independence.
606. 42:30The Declaration of Independence is the what of the United States of America and the Constitution
607. 42:35is the how.
608. 42:37That is what it is.
609. 42:39And the what makes our governmental structure special is the decentralization of power,
610. 42:48the separation of powers, the checks and balances that flow federally as a result of the separation
611. 42:59of powers.
612. 43:00Now, if you study our history, you study James Madison's notes on our Constitution.
613. 43:05These are some of the things that were arrived that early on in our discourse following the
614. 43:11prayer meeting prompted by Ben Franklin's rise in motion in the summer of 1787 in Pennsylvania.
615. 43:22Why was the separation of power such a central feature of our constitutional formation?
616. 43:29It's because our founders understood the sin nature of man.
617. 43:36Mm hmm.
618. 43:39What is it that the democratic socialists of America are seeking to do?
619. 43:42Oh, that's right.
620. 43:43They want to reduce that separation of power, get rid of the Senate all together.
621. 43:49No longer have a bi-camera,
622. 43:55deliberating legislature with a president with veto power.
623. 44:00And I know for a lot of people, we kind of get caught up in the European
624. 44:04talk about this a lot, a government to gridlock. But the reality is gridlock, as is commonly understood
625. 44:09in our system, is not a bug. It's the feature. It's made to be that way so that it is very difficult
626. 44:16for legislation to be passed because the founders did not anticipate it that the federal government
627. 44:24would be the least involved form of government in American daily life. And when we have people,
628. 44:32Like myself, I advocate for a limited government.
629. 44:40But it is the separation of powers that sets our nation apart.
630. 44:46But those who have a regressive worldview, they want to consolidate power.
631. 44:53They want to abandon the Senate, the Democratic Socialists of America want to do.
632. 44:56Get rid of the Senate altogether.
633. 44:58And in fact, get rid of the Supreme Court as it's currently functioning.
634. 45:04Get rid of the presidency as you currently function.
635. 45:06And we have an expanded uni-camera legislature, and then the judiciary and the presidency
636. 45:11are subordinate to that legislature, just like European nations.
637. 45:15Isn't that interesting?
638. 45:16I thought it was important to highlight that for you, because we used to do this thing in
639. 45:21our country called civics and teaching civics, that we wouldn't do that too much of that anymore.
640. 45:29We used to have an understanding that if there was a problem that persisted in our communities,
641. 45:33that we the people would step up and address whatever the problem is.
642. 45:36Now we kind of have a state that says,
643. 45:38well, we need to get government involved.
644. 45:41That did not used to be the American way.
645. 45:46But in order to get back, what I hope you can see from this,
646. 45:49in order to get back there is not merely
647. 45:51an understanding that we need to get back to a better
648. 45:53government, we need to come back to understanding man's
649. 45:56sinful inclinations.
650. 45:58Because the only way utopian visions of any society can
651. 46:01persist is if people deny the reality of man's sinful nature.
652. 46:06That's the only way.
653. 46:09That is the only way.
654. 46:10So I thought it was worthwhile to offer that reminder
655. 46:17and to welcome our audience here to become re-initiated
656. 46:29to that reality.
657. 46:34I mean, I have so much more.
658. 46:35Am I stacking on if I'll get to it all?
659. 46:39Like, for example, you have Anthony Fauci's government
660. 46:46Phone was finally turned over and it's interesting. There were only three contacts listed by names all the rest of the contacts have numbers in them
661. 46:56But there are over
662. 46:5834,000 text messages and 522 voicemails
663. 47:01But the contacts just so happened and I have any
664. 47:06Surely nobody tried to delete any evidence from the phone before it got turned in surely right?
665. 47:09I mean
666. 47:11But the text messages man, this is this is disgusting and I'll get right to some of the text Jeff
667. 47:15but the screenshots on because Fauci and others were publicly saying the
668. 47:23schmovitch shots are just fine. Pregnant women can take them but behind the scenes
669. 47:27Fauci was texting people and expressing concern for the impact that the shots
670. 47:35would have on pregnant women. Jeff, if you throw on the screen the green one first
671. 47:39with the green background and this is a message from Anthony Fauci. If you're
672. 47:46watching the show look on the right side of the screen, to where Fauci says this,
673. 47:49quote, I asked around a bit more and another issue came up that you need to be
674. 47:54aware of. Since many people have significant cytokine storms and fever
675. 47:58after the second dose, this theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in
676. 48:03the first trimester of pregnancy, end quote. Now, this is what this man is saying
677. 48:12in private while he is going out in public and saying, oh, there's nothing wrong
678. 48:17the shots, pregnant women can take the shots. You know, we got another one, put the other
679. 48:22one on the screen, Jeff, because during Mr. Robinette's time, his surgeon general was a
680. 48:28man by the name of Vivek Murthy. And Vivek Murthy and Dr. Fauci were discussing the concerns
681. 48:34that they had that the shot might even result in mutilating, mutilating the babies inside
682. 48:44of the pregnant moms. The top message from Dr. Mercy to Dr. Fauci, quote, this is really
683. 48:49helpful. Thanks. I've been hearing the concern about the mRNA causing mutations causing mutations
684. 48:57in a developing fetus as well. That's a really good point. Read the cytokine storm post second
685. 49:03dose. Next message from Mercy to Fauci. Quote Tony Rochelle, did you see this announcement
686. 49:10today from WHO saying they advise against pregnant women taking the Moderna vaccine because
687. 49:16of lack of data. It has led to a flurry of questions. What is your take? I imagine we will all get
688. 49:23asked about this in quote now. Do you know people? No moms who took these shots while they
689. 49:34were pregnant? Do you know moms who who miscarried as a result of or should I say shortly after
690. 49:41taking these shots. I can't imagine the pain of the miscarriage in the first place, but then to learn,
691. 49:56then to learn. Fauci with his sunglasses and wanting to be the most famous man in the world
692. 50:02is expressing these concerns in private, but in public saying, oh they're safe,
693. 50:09people just taking them at his word. And this is further evidence that Anthony Fauci deserves
694. 50:16has been the rest of his life in prison.
695. 50:20And the fact that that is not going to happen is quite disconcerted.
696. 50:28But there is one. He won't escape.
697. 50:33There's one that he won't escape.
