0:00Darkness is not an affirmative force.
0:03It simply reoccupies the space vacated by the light.
0:06This is the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
0:11It should be uncomfortable for a believer to live as a hypocrite.
0:15Delivering people out of the bondage of mainstream media.
0:18And the philosophies of this world.
0:20God has called you and me to be His ambassador.
0:24Even in this dark moment.
0:26Let's not miss our moment.
0:28And now, the Hamilton Corner.
0:33Good evening everyone.
0:34Welcome to the Hamilton Corner here on American Family Radio.
0:37I'm your host, Abraham Hamilton III.
0:39I am joined by the corner,
0:41contingent right across from me,
0:43my man 100 grand Mr. Bobby,
0:45Herr.
0:46And in the screening room,
0:48producer extraordinaire often imitate
0:49and never duplicated the reel.
0:51Jay Mac, ladies and gentlemen,
0:53we are ready to rock and roll
0:54with today's edition of the program.
0:57My goodness, things are happening all over the world.
0:59So apparently the US Supreme Court doesn't believe that the US Postal Service
1:05Can regulate how it's going to handle mail?
1:09well some
1:11mail
1:12Of course if that mail is um
1:15Electoral bouts that I had channeling through me. We'll get into that
1:20because I saw this opinion actually they've read through the opinion yesterday and
1:24and couldn't as gracious man couldn't as gracious then oh yeah don't look now
1:30but the Fed hikes interest rates is announcing a hike to the interest rates
1:34why is that oh oh don't worry it that the the resilience of the American
1:42economy is remaining strong and the production of the American economy but
1:45they need to hike interest rates that's what they said in own reports this is
1:52This is crazy. And I, I shared one side, well, I won't say one side. I shared before Monday the whole deal with Jacob Cox and the other
2:01the warnings about a eyes, dangers, but I also want to get into the fact that it is not lost on me.
2:09That all of a sudden you have all of these AI companies clamoring for regulation.
2:15Whenever you ever seen that, oh, please, oh, please regulate me. What's that? What is that about? And, and I know I already mentioned just seven
2:22We shy six weeks now six weeks of some change shy of anthropics
2:27Initial public offering what is what is really going on there? We're gonna get into all of that
2:32But before we do I want to remind you because at this very moment many of you have not most of you are making your transition
2:39From your part-time job. So your full-time jobs listen guys
2:42I say this daily because it's simply that important
2:45We will never out politic out supreme court opinion out
2:50talking head and spoke smiles our way away from the necessity of making disciples.
2:57And the reality is that disciple making is a constant. It is going to happen. The
3:02question is who is going to do the disciple making and in what direction
3:07will it take place? Jesus told us that the student when fully trained there will
3:12be like his teacher. It is going to happen. The way we've gotten to this place where
3:18you have the ascendancy of Marxism and you have Islamism.
3:22And listen, when I talk about Islam,
3:24I know, statistically speaking,
3:26that the majority of Muslims are not terrorists.
3:30But the reality is all terrorists happen to be,
3:34all Islamic terrorists happen to be Muslim.
3:37And really it's about what, five to six million Muslims
3:39in America, if only 1% of that five to six million
3:43are terrorists, do you realize that's 50 to 60,000?
3:48ISIS like folks right here in our own country, do you realize that?
3:51And then here's the fundamental question,
3:52undergirding it all.
3:54Are the people who are ISIS like Sharia adherents,
3:58are they responding to an accurate rendering
4:03of what Islam teaches, or are they perverting
4:06what Islam teaches?
4:07That is what we have to reconcile with.
4:10All right, all of these things are happening.
4:12You have the identitarians,
4:14professing to be so-called conservative,
4:16but they really are concerned about skin color.
4:20What is going on?
4:22That this used to be the province of the regressives.
4:25Now you have people professing to be conservatives
4:27and their primary concern is, well,
4:29they don't look like quote unquote heritage Americans.
4:32What do you mean look like heritage Americans?
4:35Last I checked, you had descendants,
4:37you had African slaves in America before there was in America.
4:41You had descendants of African slaves
4:43fighting in the American Revolution.
4:46Am I a heritage American?
4:49That's this is insane, but all of the things are happening
4:51swirling because darkness is not an affirmative force, but it reoccupies a space that is vacated
4:57by the light. If we are not anchored in truth, we make less of Christ. Everything else takes
5:06preeminence, which is why we have to go to the Word of God. John chapter three is what
5:11we're going to begin the program today. John chapter three, verses 16 through 21, John chapter
5:20three verses 16 through 21 is where we going to begin the program and this is what God's
5:28word says.
5:29Oh man, for God so loved the world that he gave his only son that whoever believes in
5:38him should not perish but have everlasting life, eternal life.
5:44For God did not send his son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the
5:51The world might be saved through Him.
5:57Whoever believes in Him is not condemned.
6:02But whoever does not believe is condemned already, because He has not believed in the
6:10name of the only Son of God.
6:13And this is the judgment.
6:18The light has come into the world.
6:22people love darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. For everyone who does
6:32wicked things hates the light, hates the light and does not come to the light lest his works
6:42should be exposed. But whoever does what is true comes to the light so that it may be clearly seen
6:52that his works have been carried out in God.
6:58I'm gonna read that last part again,
6:59but whoever does what is true comes to the light
7:03so that it may be clearly seen that his works
7:07have been carried out in God.
7:09I'm presenting this to you guys
7:11because I don't want to be among the crowd
7:15that merely despises the darkness,
7:17that we diagnose day in day out,
7:19all of the things that are problematic.
7:21This is going wrong, that is going wrong.
7:23That is a problem and we never get to the solution.
7:27And when solutions are proposed, but they do not include the light, capital L, the Christ
7:35that is coming to the world, not to condemn it, but that the world might be saved through him.
7:42I'm not, I'm not interesting.
7:43I'm not interested in just, you know, a ping ponging back and forth of the various iterations
7:51of the darkness. I am interested in the light being put on the lampstand. I am
7:56interested in people being brought to the light. I am interested in engaging in such
8:01a way to where we don't merely respond to the crises of the moment in the
8:06temporal sense, but we never get to the eternal root of the matter because the
8:10truth is what is transpired in our country is that little by little, almost
8:16imperceptibly, we have had a populist that has become increasingly comfortable being contrary to the
8:23king of kings and the lord of lords. Increasingly comfortable with that, to where it's almost verboten
8:32and I know some of you asked me and I'll tell you a couple things. So I had some people that came to me
8:39following a wrestling balls passage and they say, hey, we think you should be considered for that
8:45position. And then what came to me after the fact was, would you be willing to
8:50moderate how often you talk about the Bible? Would you be willing to edit that
8:55out of your show? I'm just telling y'all some inside poo. And guess what my response
8:58was? No, I'm not. Now listen, I understand, you know, that's a big platform. Sure, a lot of
9:05money evolves. Sure. But you know what? I'm not willing to moderate the truth for
9:09that. And I don't honestly, I don't even think I was actually in the running for
9:14or anything like that.
9:17But the reality is that's something,
9:18that is something that has happened to me
9:19repeatedly throughout my life in various ways.
9:21Would you be willing to just kind of tone down?
9:24I mean, you know, you could refer to the Bible every now and again,
9:26but do you have to read it every program?
9:29Guys, this was real conversation.
9:30I'm giving you all some backyard pool.
9:32I had another conversation one time saying,
9:34you know, Abe, you come out really hard
9:36and saying, you know, Mormonism is not Christianity.
9:39Would you be willing to kind of moderate that a little bit?
9:41Y'all know what my answer was?
9:44No.
9:45And the reality is folks, y'all know the story.
9:49I never thought to be in radio in the first place.
9:51So if God sees fit to remove this platform,
9:54the Lord give it to the Lord, take it away.
9:56But I'm not gonna moderate the truth
9:57because there is one name under heaven
9:59by which men must be saved.
10:01If we do all of our pontificating and we swirl about,
10:04we go talk about the composition of the house representatives
10:07and which seats are toss ups in the midterm elections
10:09in the US Senate.
10:10We talk about GDP and interest rates being hiked
10:12and Supreme Court opinions.
10:13And we never get to the cross of Christ.
10:16Never get to the cross of Christ.
10:21What would a prophet and man to gain the world?
10:22You lose his soul.
10:24And we have a society that we get all nervous,
10:26get kind of squeamish.
10:28We still talk about the real issue in our country
10:30is that the light has come into the world,
10:32but men love darkness rather than the light.
10:35I posed the question before.
10:37If Charlie Kirk, and as we are witnessing
10:41the one year memorial of his public assassination,
10:46and his public martyrdom.
10:50Because Charlie Kirk didn't get shot
10:52when he was talking about libertarian economics.
10:55He didn't get shot when he was exclusively politically
10:57organizing.
10:58He got shot when he started saying things like,
11:00the one thing I wanna be known for is the courage
11:02of my faith.
11:04That's when these things unfolded.
11:05And I asked a question at one time in one of these
11:07small groups, I said, do you guys think
11:09turning point USA would have been able to be,
11:11become as large an influential as it became
11:14If Charlie Kirk began with where he ended up,
11:20and y'all know, listen, I'm just being real.
11:24You know what they said to me?
11:26No.
11:27In fact, they had a lot of people within the organization
11:30and within the donor base that were very uncomfortable
11:33with how much Charlie Kirk talked about the gospel
11:41and how many gospel proclamations
11:45are coming from turning point,
11:47the institutional organization.
11:48I know they have a separate organization,
11:49turning point faith, I know that.
11:51And I know Pastor Lucas Miles is running that,
11:53praise God for that.
11:54But I'm talking about in the central core
11:56of what the organization is.
11:58What I'm saying guys is that men love darkness
12:00rather than light.
12:03And that is the real problem.
12:06You know, greed and lying and deception.
12:10What is the Bible tell us those things come from?
12:13I'll give you the other thing.
12:13I know by God's grace I've been able to meet several people
12:17over the years who've converted away from Islam.
12:19Can you name one person who became a terrorist
12:22who converted Christianity away from Islam?
12:26You cannot name them.
12:28You cannot name them.
12:31And we do all of this kind of, oh,
12:34hoo, uncomfortable, wait, I don't wanna do all of these things.
12:37Guys, reality is Islam is a political ideology.
12:42It's a political ideology.
12:47And you can do several things.
12:49Read the Quran and Haddis yourselves and study history.
12:57My great concern is that they are not enough of us
13:01that are willing to say, this is the judgment.
13:04As the scripture said, this is the judgment,
13:07John 3 19, that the light has come into the world
13:11and people love the darkness rather than the light.
13:16The light has come into the world,
13:17but people love the darkness rather than the light.
13:23That is what is plaguing us.
13:26That is what is plaguing us.
13:28You, there, there, there are all of this strange
13:31and tern and turmoil.
13:33What kind of nation will be when John Adams
13:35told us the Constitution Republic that we have inherited is only effective for holy religious
13:41and moral people.
13:44It is entirely inadequate for the governance of any other.
13:46So if you're wondering why there's so many people that are pining for the fundamental transformation
13:51of the United States of America, you have regressives on the left that want to push toward socialism
13:56and Marxism.
13:57You're not at a conversation with a guy.
13:58He was trying to say, well Abraham, you know, not all Democrats are Marxists.
14:02I say I understand that in terms of their personal profession, but look at the policies
14:05that they support.
14:06Can you show me any aspects of the DSA political platform
14:10that the Democrat Party disagrees with?
14:12Show me, show me.
14:16Did you have people that are regressives
14:18in the Republican veneer that are saying things
14:20like, well, what we need, we need a strong man,
14:23a political strong man, I said, that's not what we need.
14:28The greatest and most desperate need
14:29for our country guys is repentance.
14:32And one of the things that's gonna be necessary
14:35is for the bride of Christ to have a courage
14:37to the boldness anchored by the love for our Lord,
14:39that compels us to love our neighbor so much
14:42that we cry aloud and spare not,
14:44that we tell what the truth is.
14:45And the truth is that men have loved darkness
14:47rather than light.
14:49But here's the good news,
14:50that the light has come into the world.
14:53And the light was a light of men,
14:54and the whole so-ever place that faking him
14:56can be redeemed and enjoy eternal life.
15:01A discipleship minute with Joseph Parker.
15:05What if God wrote a book?
15:06Would you read it?
15:08Well, the fact is, God did write a book
15:10and it's called the Bible and we have the privilege
15:12of reading it.
15:13The author of the word of God is God our heavenly Father.
15:16He used about 40 or so secretaries
15:19to write the word of God.
15:20But God is the one that inspired every word
15:24of the word of God.
15:24So it's a book by God about God.
15:28The word of God is Jesus and Jesus is the word of God.
15:32And so from Genesis to Revelation,
15:34you're reading an autobiography,
15:36a book by God about God.
15:38God continues to introduce Himself to us.
15:41And more and more we come to know who Jesus is
15:44and His personality through the Word of God.
15:47We live in a world where people read lots and lots of things,
15:50but the most important book in all of the world for you to read
15:54is the book written by the creator of the universe,
15:56the precious Word of God.
16:01The following is not an actor,
16:03but a real life story from Trinity Debt Management.
16:06Every day I speak with people who are worried
16:09and are feeling a lot of pressure because of credit card debt.
16:12That's why I'm very proud of what we do at Trinity.
16:16We just help.
16:17We give people the support they need,
16:19along with a real plan to become debt-free.
16:22Credit card bills are consolidated into a single monthly payment
16:26that is much less than what they were paying before.
16:29Most of our members end up saving thousands
16:32and even may improve their credit scores
16:35by as much as 200 points.
16:37I know from the bottom of my heart that I'm making a difference in the lives of the people
16:41we help.
16:42It just makes me really happy.
16:45If credit card debt has you down, call Trinity at 1-800-788-1813.
16:51My name is Julie and I'm a Trinity counselor.
16:54Call me and become debt free for keeps.
16:561-800-788-1813.
17:06Shining light into the darkness, this is the Hamilton Quarter, an American family radio.
17:11Welcome back to the Hamilton Corner, Abraham Hamilton the third here.
17:16I'm going to get into this and I guess I'll start with President Trump's response to it.
17:24But I want to get into the details of the decision because when you start thinking about
17:28well, you know, should we or should we not disturb the mailing ballot requirements just
17:34short of the just before the midterm elections?
17:38I mean, we're in September already and the midterm will be in November and all of these
17:42things, I think it's important to provide the details to you so you can see exactly
17:47what it is we're talking about because it's one thing to discuss, well the
17:50Trump administration tried to change the rules for the mail-in ballots just before
17:53the midterms when it actually happened months ago, dating back to May,
17:57infofilmated with campaign promises, by the way. If you would Jeff, would you put on
18:04the screen President Trump's true social post? He posted this yesterday morning after
18:09the Supreme Court released its opinion and this is the style of the case. The United
18:13States Postal Service versus California.
18:16That's the case style.
18:18Style is the legal description for the name of the case.
18:21When you throw that up on the screen,
18:23I want to read this because I want you to see
18:24the strong language that President Trump used here.
18:25Nothing profane, but he clearly was upset about this ruling.
18:30And this is what President Trump said.
18:31Quote, Republicans just got another bad decision
18:33from the United States Supreme Court.
18:35One, that the court system took forever to give,
18:37and then blamed it in part on no time left
18:40to implement a solution to our totally corrupt
18:42and out of control mail-in voting disaster.
18:45You got the screenshot?
18:47Oh, he's coming, he's coming.
18:47I'm gonna keep reading, cause, you know,
18:49time waits for no Jeff.
18:51Heh heh heh.
18:52The mailing voting disaster,
18:53which is a laughing stock all over the world.
18:56And where we are the only country
18:57that has to endure such a nation-destroying scam.
19:01Justice is a leader when Thomas,
19:03legends both strongly disagreed
19:05with this horrible, highly political ruling.
19:08It is a big loss for Republicans and America itself
19:11and makes cheating by the radical left Democrats on mail-in ballots a much easier thing to do.
19:18And now they have an open field to do so.
19:22The Supreme Court has really let our country down.
19:24Certain justices are petrified of these crazed and depraved Democrats and are totally unable
19:29to show the courage necessary to save our America.
19:32Their horrible decision on terrorists will be costing the USA for many years to come trillions
19:37and trillions of dollars.
19:39They didn't even state money paid does not have to be paid back.
19:42Much to the benefit of entities that truly hate our country and have been ripping it off
19:46for years, unnecessarily costing us immediately billions of dollars.
19:52Likewise a Supreme Court's decision on birthright citizenship is a complete and total disaster
19:56for America and has already led to massive corruption with respect to citizenship in
20:01our country.
20:02The damage done to America is incalculable and they know this just as everyone else does.
20:09It is an irreparable and unrecoverable harm."
20:14That's what President Trump said.
20:15The court's inability and unwillingness to do the right thing for our country will go down
20:19in a very negative way in the annals of history.
20:22The Supreme Court is bullied and cajoled by the radical left into making decisions that
20:26have set America back at least a hundred years.
20:29These are not the people I interviewed to serve on the United States Supreme Court.
20:33They are merely a shell of their original selves, a court that is costing the United States
20:37trillions of dollars with shockingly bad rulings that are of such magnitude that it won't be
20:41easily possible for our country to recover or heal. It is a court that will go down as
20:46having rendered some of the most destructive, hurtful, and damaging decisions in our country's
20:51history. It is not easy for me to write this criticism of the United States Supreme Court.
20:55It will likely cost me dearly for years to come, but I feel that my obligation and duty
20:59as president to do so for the America we love. Thank you for your attention to this very important
21:04matter, God bless the USA." That's what President Trump posted on True Social. Now, I've talked
21:09at least about the Birthright Citizenship decision, which was absurd, right? And it's not
21:14guys' and not rocket surgery. The 14th Amendment said that any person born or naturalized in the
21:20United States of America is a citizen if they're born here and subject to our jurisdiction. But the
21:26US Supreme Court just ruled basically that the subject to our jurisdiction requirement is practically
21:32irrelevant. That's just, you know, that, that, now of course, Congress can pass a constitutional
21:40amendment, but the problem is that you've, that decision is said that is what the amendment
21:44means. So they basically have amended the US Constitution extra, you know what I'm saying,
21:50different, they have judicially amended the US Constitution. That's what you used to
21:55call that judicial activism. Now, I don't want anybody to think I'm saying that Supreme
21:59Court hasn't done any good things because they have, but on some of the most important decisions
22:03they come up like this, you know, you don't get the Dobbs opinion without the current Supreme
22:07Court. That was huge. You don't get the overturning a Chevron difference without the current Supreme
22:11Court. That is huge. But on big issues, the court keeps coming up short on other big issues,
22:18like the Coach Joe Kennedy case was a big, that was a big case. There's some things they have
22:22done good. So I don't want to say that it's been, you know, nothing, but there are some
22:27things guys that are, that are very, very important to say it that way. And this is one of them.
22:36So this decision that was released yesterday is a seven to two decision seven to two.
22:41Did you hear me?
22:43The only two people who descended from this decision were justices Alito and Thomas.
22:51The other seven all agree with this.
22:54So I'll start with the last portion first.
22:56Well what the first thing president Trump said that a part of their rationale was because
23:01it's too close to the election to implement the changes that president Trump had required.
23:06But the part of the reason is because the courts have been holding the stuff up.
23:11The Trump administration has been asking the courts, would you please make a decision?
23:14Would you please make a decision?
23:15Would you please make a decision?
23:16Because the midterms are right around the corner.
23:18Alright.
23:20The executive order, guys, I'm telling you, y'all gonna think this is why I like to translate
23:26these legal decisions and legal opinions into English for the American people.
23:32Because when you start thinking, oh man, this has got to be entirely complex.
23:37really not that complex. They use a lot of big words, but it's really not that complex.
23:42All right. The court made this decision basically saying, and this is quote, this is just as Kavanaugh's
23:54concurring opinion, right? Justice Kavanaugh wrote quote, in my view, based on the brief in the court
24:01has received that this interim stage, there is at least a fair prospect that the final rule falls
24:05within the Postal Service's statutory authority. But applying the rule in the 2026 elections would
24:10would be arbitrary and capricious in violation
24:13of the Administrative Procedure Act
24:14because state and local election officials
24:17do not have sufficient time to reasonably implement
24:20the rule before the elections.
24:23Then we have time, bro.
24:24What took y'all so long?
24:28Literally like I said, my wife says,
24:30"'Ain't could you go to the store?'
24:34And she asked me to go to the store on Friday,
24:39but I gotta go to work on Monday."
24:42And I gotta be in office at 8 a.m. on Monday,
24:44and I get up at seven o'clock on Monday morning and say,
24:46Oh, baby, no, I'm sorry.
24:47I can't go to the store because you know I got to go to work.
24:50Did she ask me to go on Friday?
24:54That's what this is like.
24:55That's one aspect of it.
25:00The additional other, the additional aspects of it.
25:04So what this boils down to is Justice Alito
25:06wrote a dissenting opinion, which Justice Thomas concurred in,
25:11said, first of all, the Administrative Procedures Act
25:14doesn't even govern this case.
25:16And this is the simple reason, folks.
25:18All right.
25:19Here's a little bit of civics for your consideration.
25:23All right.
25:24What is the United States Postal Service?
25:28I'm so glad you asked that question.
25:29The United States Postal Service is an agency
25:33that is within the executive branch.
25:36You understand what I'm saying?
25:37What are the three branches of our federal government?
25:40Class, the executive, the legislative, and the judicial.
25:44The legislative being Congress,
25:46which is comprised of two houses,
25:48the house in the Senate because our national legislature is a bi-camera
25:52legislature. So good. Well done, class.
25:55Well, what if an agency falls within the scope
25:59of one branch or the other? For example, in this instance, the federal
26:04executive branch. Who has the authority to govern
26:08the federal executive branch class? Well, that would be the president, Mr. A.
26:13Because the president is the chief executive officer of our military
26:17And he's also the chief of the executive branch.
26:20So very good folks.
26:23And guess what else?
26:24Class Pursuing to 39 US code, section 201 and section 221
26:30and section 410, the United States Postal Service,
26:36text notes, along with congressional authorization
26:40is governed exclusively by the president.
26:45In this instance, guys, I'm telling you,
26:46y'all gonna flip when y'all hear this.
26:48In this instance, President Trump issued
26:50executive order that required four small changes to the way that mail-in ballots are
26:56handled.
26:57Y'all ready for this?
26:58All right.
27:00Change number one.
27:01President Trump's executive order required that federal ballot mail has to be sent in
27:05envelopes with three special features.
27:08Feature number one.
27:10That the envelope has an election mail logo.
27:13There's a specific logo to say that this parcel of mail is election mail.
27:18already okay requirement number two that
27:21the u.s. postal service has the up that that that i'm sorry that the envelope
27:25has the ability to be scanned using high-speed processing equipment because you
27:30know some places like i don't know california seems to be unable to count
27:35balance when you have states like florida comes along the same night that
27:38they're turned in
27:38it's amazing how that
27:40happened so to to to to the two requirements so far
27:43you got to have a particular logo that says this is election mail
27:46requirement number two is that you have to be able to scan it with high speed processing equipment
27:51requirement number three that there's a special barcode that is unique to each voter
27:58and states must design envelopes that are here to these requirements and submit the designs to
28:04the postal service for review so why would they do that class because the federal government has
28:10an interest in making sure that the person who sends in the mail in ballot is actually the person
28:15as registered to vote. Oh gee, I wonder why they would do that. And what's the fourth requirement?
28:21What's the fourth requirement? The states must upload basic information about the voter
28:26to a postal service portal. Under the rule, the postal service must review mail sent from states
28:34to voters for compliance with these requirements. Why would they do that class? Because the federal
28:39government was trying to make sure, you know, because the Senate won't move on the same act,
28:42Trying to make sure if people are using mail-in ballots that the ones sending the ballots in are asking the people who've uploaded their voter information to do so.
28:49Is that very difficult?
28:53While we're debating whether or not AIs gonna kill everybody within a decade.
28:58Is this so hard to get envelopes?
29:00Guys, this is literally what the debate is.
29:06Now before I go any further, and you'll get why I'm saying this, do you want to know who the people are that sued?
29:12Because what happened is President Trump issued the executive order.
29:15of order, then there were lots of people all over the country who filed lawsuits.
29:19Some of them, Justice Alito pointed out, would not even have standing.
29:23They don't have standing.
29:25You can't complain.
29:26You don't have the law for the order to complain about mail.
29:29Changes to how mail is to be collected.
29:34I'll give you some of the greatest hits.
29:41States, about two dozen states.
29:43Y'all want to know which states filed to challenge this executive order?
29:47I'm sure you wanted to know.
29:49Lead plaintiff, California.
29:52I wonder why they would do so.
29:54Washington State.
29:56Nevada.
29:58Colorado.
30:00Delaware.
30:02Connecticut.
30:03Illinois.
30:05Maryland.
30:06Minnesota.
30:08Michigan.
30:09New Mexico.
30:11Maine.
30:13The District of Columbia.
30:15Does anybody notice a pattern
30:17in which states are suing to try to?
30:19I wonder why these states wouldn't want the postal service to ensure that the people who
30:26receive the mail-in ballots and send them back in are actually the people who actually applied
30:30for them.
30:31Because if you recall, I told you, in the state of Michigan, for example, in violation of Michigan
30:35state law, that you had people who received mail-in ballots who never requested them.
30:39Isn't that interesting?
30:42That my friends would be a violation of state law in that interesting.
30:50might I remind you that this executive order was required
30:54all the way back in April and May?
31:01You mean to tell me that I won enough time to get,
31:03God, notice this is just envelopes for the ballot.
31:09And you've noticed that the states that have filed
31:12these lawsuits all tend to lean
31:13in one particular direction.
31:14You even noticed that?
31:15You also had the League of Women Voters
31:18in over 250 current and former members
31:20of the House of Representatives
31:22who filed to invalidate this executive order, which,
31:25according to Justice Alito and Justice Thomas,
31:28what this boils down to is whether or not
31:30the executive branch under the president
31:32has the authority to enforce rules that govern mail.
31:37How it be collected?
31:40To which they both concluded clearly
31:42through congressional authority and by our constitution
31:45that the executive branch governs the agencies
31:48under the executive branch.
31:50Guys, that is what the whole argument,
31:52That is what the entire argument was.
31:54Well, the Supreme Court has ruled that no.
31:59The chief of the executive branch cannot require agency within this jurisdiction to even though,
32:08even though, in other areas, in other areas, rules concerning male collection are changed
32:16all the time with statutory authority.
32:19But in this instance, you cannot do so.
32:24Guys, this is comical.
32:33This is comical.
32:36Justice Lido wrote, in order to assert the ultravirus claim, the plaintiffs must show that
32:41the challenge regulation of envelopes here is entirely in excess of the power to govern
32:48and collecting, handling, transporting, delivering, forwarding, and returning of mail.
32:56Does not the US Postal Service have the authority to do so?
32:59Come on, man.
33:00Guys, this is politicized.
33:03Justice Alito and Justice Thomas also argued that a lot of the people that were asking for
33:08because this was at the injection stage.
33:10So it hadn't even gone into effect yet.
33:13The president made the executive order.
33:14The lawsuits came of firing.
33:16So you had district courts that say, oh, you can't do that.
33:18President Trump.
33:19So they were arguing whether or not the injunction
33:21should stand against it.
33:23So it never got off the launch pad.
33:27And Justice Kavanaugh says, oh, man, shucks.
33:30If we had just gotten to this a little earlier,
33:32maybe we could have let it happen.
33:34Because you know, it takes a long time to print envelopes
33:39and put barcodes on envelopes with voter information
33:43that the states allegedly already have
33:46because they already should know who is registered to vote.
33:50Guys, that is what the entire argument was, and in the 7-2-2 decision, the Supreme Court says,
33:54Nah, USPS, you cannot regulate mail collection.

34:31Hi, I'm Tim Moore, Senior Evangelist on Christ in Prophecy.
34:35With all the uncertainty in the world today, it's good to know that God's promises never
34:39change.
34:40On Christ in Prophecy, we'll examine the signs of the times and consider what's really happening
34:45in the world today through the lens of God's prophetic Word.
34:49To hear more biblical hope for the future, join me for Christ in Prophecy, Sundays at 11
34:54AM Central right here on American Family Radio, and find out what's really going on in the
35:00world.
35:01Here's a $10 bill.
35:02It's got the picture of Alexander Hamilton on the front of it.
35:05You know, it's kind of sad.
35:06When I was 10 years old, everything that I could buy for a dollar now costs about $10.
35:12That's the cost of inflation.
35:14It's just paper.
35:15It's not backed by anything.
35:16You can't exchange it for gold and silver you used to, but you can't do that anymore.
35:20And that's unfortunate.
35:21You know, pirates wouldn't accept this.
35:23Pirates, they want a gold and silver.
35:26Patriots, the founders of this nation, also want a gold and silver coin.
35:29In fact, they put a provision in the Constitution.
35:3117 words that said states could only make gold and silver coins tender within the states.
35:38That's why I wrote this new book, Pirate Money, Discovering the Founders, Hidden Plan
35:42for Economic Justice and Defeating the Great Reset.
35:45It will explain exactly the history of money and exactly why gold and silver coins can be
35:50made modern with new technology and a useful monetary system.

36:05Hamilton Quarter Podcast and One-Minute Common Terrets are available at EFR.net.
36:11Back to the Hamilton Corner on American Family Radio.
36:16Welcome back to Hamilton Corner.
36:17I was asking Bobby Dinnabrek.
36:18I'm asking Bobby DeNerbrick.
36:19I wonder why states like, you know, California and Massachusetts and Michigan and Illinois.
36:27I wonder why they wouldn't want to have, you know, requirements concerning mail-in ballots
36:33that would say that for those who use a mail-in ballot, that you have to upload the voter information
36:38to the Postal Service and have the ballot apply to the unique barcode per voter.
36:45I wonder why that would draw the ire so much so you would file this preemptive lawsuit that
36:51included associations of people that as Justice legal pointed out, they didn't even have standing
36:56to follow.
36:57I wonder why they would stop that.
37:01Because you know, there's no widespread, hanky-panky going on with milling boats, you know?
37:09That's not happening, right?
37:11But you know, just spitball in here for a moment, when I wonder how widespread, you know, if
37:20there was any kind of things going on there, I wonder if the spreading, you know, the story
37:25of the news, you know, I wonder if we start examining how the news is spreading.
37:31I wonder if we check off this list of states, if we look there, what one might find, eh?
37:36Wait, what do you think?
37:38What do you think?
37:39Well, boy, tell me what do you think?
37:40What do you think?
37:41What do you think, Jeff?
37:42Oh, my wife, she put me lost.
37:44Your wife, you know what?
37:45You know what?
37:48She put me lost.
37:50What do you think?
37:50What do you think?
37:51What do you think we popped the hood of those things?
37:53Well, maybe, maybe, maybe if we look at the states
37:55that actually file the lawsuit to make it impossible
38:02to have a particular barcode that applies
38:06to an individual mail-in ballot requester,
38:11I wonder what we find there?
38:13Or is it that those states would like to have the utilization of mail-in ballots without having
38:19any particular, you know, connected between who is and who's not registered to vote?
38:25You know, I wonder if this will make it easier or harder to harvest.
38:33Yeah, you know what I mean?
38:34I'm just spitballing, you know.
38:36You see it, you're a J investigation.
38:38Yeah, you know, but here's the thing, no.
38:40You know, it's kind of obviously I've forced the DOJ investigation, but you know, remember
38:43where Harry Reid said, you know, when he had his binders full of women, you remember all
38:48of that? And when they said, Harry, Harry Reid, you came up with those accusations and
38:53none of that stuff was true. And you remember Harry Reid's response? He lost, didn't he?
39:00Harry knew he was lying. He didn't care. I'll move on. I referred to this earlier. And
39:12while I stand by the comments I make concerning Jacob Cox and I wanted to share that information
39:16because if you've been listening to the show for a while, I've been sharing
39:18that information over time. That's not the first time I was sharing information
39:21like that. There have been others long before who have been explaining that
39:26there's some things that are very concerning Elon Musk at one point warned
39:29at several points. I should say warned about some of the dangers with with
39:32artificial intelligence and things of that nature. But I don't want you to think
39:36that it's lost on me that all of a sudden, you know, Jacob Coxon comes out with his
39:42warnings. And then it just so happened to coincide with a
39:47dissent upon Capitol Hill from all of these AI companies asking
39:52for regulation. I do find that to be a bit curious and dubious. And
40:02at the exact same time, it's almost like it's a concert, you
40:04know, I've ever seen, you know, an orchestra where the conductor
40:07is, and then he points to the brass section, it's like on right
40:11on cue, the brass section response.
40:15So all of a sudden all of the Democrat elected officials
40:19also start singing the melody for regulation.
40:25It can help but feel coordinated.
40:29And excuse me, having lived through the Schmovid debacle,
40:36if such coordination gives me the heebie-jeebies.
40:40So I want you to have the information,
40:41but again, we've been talking about the necessity
40:43discernment. I don't want you to be to not have access to to an entire scope because I find that
40:54to be highly puzzling. You know, you didn't want all you didn't want the regulation before and
41:01and you want to have this arms race you want to be first to get to you know artificial general
41:07intelligence and artificial superintelligence you want to be China but now you're all asking
41:10in concert for regulation and also don't think I've forgotten that anthropics about the habits big
41:16the IPO in a few weeks.
41:18All of those things are not coincidental.
41:20They're not coincidental.
41:22And so we need to be aware of all of that information
41:24to be able to discern what is happening.
41:27But as I said Monday, as I said before,
41:29and I will continue to say, it's not an occasion to fear.
41:33I do not want to provoke trepidation
41:37because the reality is the earth is the Lord
41:39and the fullness thereof, the world,
41:41and we who dwell therein,
41:42and God is ordained you and I for this moment.
41:45There have been many people.
41:47There have been many a previous instances
41:48throughout human history when man thought
41:50he was gonna create something that would dethrone God,
41:53basically.
41:54That's what Yuvaha Rari said.
41:55The, get this oxymoron, the atheist Jew.
41:58What an oxymoron.
42:00Right?
42:01What an oxymoron.
42:03You know, that AI is gonna take over even religion.
42:06I was like, man, come on man, that's not,
42:09there have been many who's thought that in the past.
42:12So I don't want you to be ignorant of that kind of
42:14Conflation of events there some will say man that was nothing more than the PR stunt by anthrop to try to drive their IPO price
42:20Because nothing caused motivation like fear and I get that I understand fears often use
42:25Quite maliciously and malevinly as a motivator, but I want you to have all of the information all right today
42:40The Federal Reserve which I will remind you which is not a federal entity and it has no reserves I
42:46I feel obligated to say it every time because it's a fact.
42:51The Federal Reserve is a private bank that has, as I'm talking to, never been audited.
42:58Isn't that amazing?
43:01Also one in which I would argue, unconstitutionally, that Congress has ceded its constitutional
43:08obligation to coin money, because if you read the actual articles of the Constitution,
43:14the obligation on the federal stage to coin money is Congress's alone does not have the
43:18authority to outsource it to a private entity. All right. No more than can you have, for
43:28example, the US Army to become a privatized phenomenon. You can hire private industry to
43:35make weapons for the military, but the private entities cannot be the US military. Not a
43:45clean analogy, but I think it articulates point of drawn express
43:52Augment what yeah under
43:59But they would have to be recruits into the military though. They can't be a separate entity
44:03They would have to be recruits into the actual military. They cannot be a separate
44:07What a Federal Reserve is an entirely separate entity
44:10Why is it that our economy has held hosses to this private bank? That's a that's a that is a
44:17and a conversation for another day.
44:20But I will continue to recommend
44:22Yeah, we're Giffer friends, the creature from Jekyll Island.
44:24I have it is a long read, but you need to read it.
44:27Your children need to read it to understand
44:29what is going on.
44:30All right.
44:32Well, the Fed today, and this is interesting
44:34because just 12 days ago, President Trump threatened
44:39that he would stop trading with 50 plus US trade partners
44:43if the Federal Reserve did not cut rates.
44:47That's right, Sister Angie, 1913.
44:50The Federal Reserve Act was passed in 1913,
44:52but you have to go all the way back to 1910
44:53because it was an attempt at 1910 to pass it in it failed.
44:57Why did it fail in 1910?
44:59What happened across the past in 1913?
45:01Anyway, I won't get this sidetracked,
45:02but this, well no, they lied.
45:05That's what happened.
45:06In 1910, they were more honest about what they were trying
45:09to accomplish and the American people said, no way.
45:12So then they lied.
45:14They said, oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
45:15that's not what we're on to accomplish.
45:16That's, then they grieze the skids to your point
45:19of different senators.
45:20They got some senators who were viewed as a hostile
45:24to the making trust to be the water carriers for this measure.
45:28And then because unfortunately, Americans tend to not pay attention to 1913 like it
45:33does now, they say, Oh, if this person is carrying it, then they must be okay.
45:37Kind of kind of in true Pelosi fashion passed the bill to find out was in it.
45:44And now we're we're paying the consequences today back to today.
45:50The Fed today announced even as by the president Trump's threat.
45:58You know, he said he can stop trading.
45:59If the Fed did not cut rates, they not only did not cut rates, the Fed under the new chairman
46:05that President Trump pushed for, by the way, raised, I'll announce an increase to interest
46:11rates.
46:12The first interest rate hike in three years, 0.25% or 25 basis points.
46:19Listen to and watch clip number one, clip one, go.
46:22And the Federal Reserve did indeed raise rates, 25 basis points on this.
46:26This is the first rate hike since July of 2023.
46:29Now we also got the projections for what the Federal Reserve believes the economy is going
46:32to do.
46:33They see PC inflation at 3.7% overall this year, then falling dramatically next year to 2.3%
46:40before having 2.1% in 2028.
46:43Now Core follows a similar path.
46:45That inflation is going to be up to 3.4% this year, then down to 2.5% next year, following
46:50with 2.2% in 2028.
46:52on unemployment, the Federal Reserve sees us at neutral 4.1% through the next three years
46:59for growth, the Fed sees GDP going up, 2.3% this year, 2.4% next year, then 2.2% in 2028.
47:07Now, on the forward guidance with this, you may remember the Federal Reserve Chairman does
47:11not offer forward guidance.
47:12He did not offer forward guidance in this report also.
47:15So one member down, the Fed is indicating there could be one more rate hike this year, which
47:21is what the markets are predicting.
47:22The markets think there's going to be another rate
47:24like in the December meeting, and then holding next year
47:27steady with a cut in 2028.
47:30So again, this is without the Federal Reserve Chairman's
47:32input related to this.
47:34Now, in the Fed statement, it says,
47:35economic activity is increasing at a solid pace.
47:39The statement acknowledges elevated uncertainty
47:42because of geopolitical events, as it describes.
47:44It says, for the first time in the statement,
47:47it says that the domestic spending has been resilient.
47:51I have not seen domestic spending added into a statement there saying that the consumer
47:56is very strong.
47:57Now the Fed sees job gains keeping pace with the workforce.
48:00I was since the last statement of this sentence, I think is important.
48:03I'm going to read it.
48:04It says, today's policy action will support a timelier return to the committee's 2% goal.
48:09So again, we saw our first rate hike in about three years here.
48:14So you know, I have a couple questions.
48:16So the Fed makes its announcements and they distribute it a summary and print of the decision.
48:25The Fed voted 12 to nothing.
48:27So you have Fed, Bank, Chairs of the Federal Reserve Banks around the country that come together
48:32to comprise the board with the chair at the board, at the head of the board.
48:37They voted 12 to nothing, unanimous.
48:41That's not often what happens.
48:42It's not often a unanimous decision to increase interest rates.
48:47then you have the note in the report that says, quote,
48:51our decision to increase interest rates comes at a time
48:54when the American economy appears to be strengthening,
48:57noting labor market data, private sector earnings,
48:59and capital investments as indicators of their strength.
49:04Huh, so then why do you feel the need to raise interest rates?
49:08If domestic spending is, quote, resilient, end quote,
49:13because usually the Fed intervenes to try to bolster
49:16domestic spending and try to bolster the economic indicators in the domestic market.
49:20So they say, so why do this now guys?
49:24And the ending statement that the gentleman read to you is that the Fed is primarily focused
49:29on inflation.
49:30Well, what is the main thing driving inflation right now?
49:32The iron thing.
49:40So if that's the one thing, which by the way, there's still oil coming in and out of the
49:46street.
49:47It's not that we have a deficiency in oil.
49:49I mean, do we need to talk about?
49:51we have domestically already and then what we,
49:53what we access ourselves toward in one Vince O'ela,
49:58I know it's Vince O'ela, but you know, some people,
50:00the Vince O'ela.
50:03So if we have access to all this oil,
50:05what's the problem?
50:06You don't tell you what the problem is?
50:07Refineries.
50:08See, we have unfortunately, with all of the oil you have access
50:11to, we have outsourced our refining capacity.
50:14The thing that's necessary to get the natural occurring
50:16phenomenon to be able to be refined
50:19so that we get it in our actual gas tanks
50:20and our automobiles and things of that nature,
50:22we've outsourced that.
50:23So instead of the fan hiking interest rates,
50:25why don't we have a move towards,
50:27I don't know, reducing regulations
50:29to allow things like rigs and refineries
50:32and things and pipelines to be developed and accessed here,
50:37so that we can refine, because if we have all the oil
50:40in the world, we can't refine it
50:42to where we have market accessibility,
50:44then guess what happens?
50:45Inflation.
50:48So when you raise interest rates,
50:51at a time when the domestic market is resilient
50:54in your own words, what do you think that's going to do?
50:58How would that impact the economy?
51:00What I'm saying, folks, this is a shell game that I hate,
51:03that I hate, and I hate to say it,
51:07but I think a part of it is connected
51:09to the political reality of the midterms.
51:16This is troublesome.
51:20Nevertheless, as I began the show,
51:23the light has come into the world.
51:24And so, the solution that will ride downstream solutions
51:28is by having our populist turn to the light and we can make demands and righteousness of our servant.
