Hi Truthseekers, Kathy Malloy here for Church Night!
I had to unfriend an old friend, known her since elementary school, used lo live around the corner. We went to high school together – same homeroom. Then she found Jesus and lost her mind. Her Facebook page is chock-a-block with pseudo-science about COVID19, insinuating the virus is over-hyped and really an excuse for the government to strip us of our rights. She posted graphics showing its more dangerous to wear a mask because it traps germs in your lungs, making you sick. She’s a cake decorator, so clearly more qualified than Dr. Fauci.
Her born again ‘Murican teenage son works at Chic-Fil-A (of course) and brags that he takes off his mask as soon as his manager leaves and never washes his hands. He doesn’t need soap, he’s washed in the blood of the lamb. And they’re BIG Trump supporters, because nothing says Christian like “grab ’em by the pussy.” Yeah, the unfriending was inevitable.
Losing her as a friend is sad, but even more tragic is the number of Bible-thumpers who agree with her. They are everywhere, and might be making your curly fries. As if we didn’t have enough to worry about with murder hornets. Perhaps Mother Earth finally had enough and is wiping us off the face of the Earth – can’t blame her. We’ve been terrible stewards for a century or more. This pandemic could serve as a teachable moment for us, but not the Rapture Right who claim dominion over the planet, the atmosphere, and lots of bullets. Never understood the right-to-lifers who tote automatic weapons and claim “stand your ground” rights to kill anyone they deem a threat </Treyvon>
Black men are being hunted like deer here in Georgia, where former high school football star Ahmaud Arbery was gunned down while jogging. He didn’t even have Skittles. According to the incident report, Arbery was shot after two men spotted him running in their neighborhood on a Sunday afternoon. A running black man, must be a criminal. Gregory McMichael told police that he and his adult son thought the runner matched the description of someone caught on a security camera committing a recent break-in in the neighborhood. They armed themselves with guns before getting in a truck to pursue him, then jumped out of their truck and attacked him. When Arbery fought back, they shot him. Neither of these white men have been arrested or charged, because its Georgia. Supposedly a Grand Jury will convene in June. Oh well, until then these Rednecks can freely hunt young black men.
This is Brian Kemp country after all. The governor who gained fame with his campaign commercials where he pointed a shotgun at a teenager and “blew up” immigrants with explosives.
Honestly, we really need to move. Kemp has reopened everything in Georgia, and my former FB friend is delighted. Go get that manicure, girlfriend. I’ll pass.
And today our Fearless Leader toured a mask factory in Arizona, while not wearing a mask, with a cover of the song “Live and Let Die” by Guns-N-Roses playing in the background as the employees clapped. Where are we? The Guardian has more:
During a pandemic that has seen more than 70,000 deaths in the US (almost a quarter of the global amount), there is probably no worse song the president could walk out to than Live and Let Die, a cover by the rock band Guns N’ Roses. But these are strange times, and so as Donald Trump walked around an N95 mask manufacturing plant in Phoenix, Arizona, that’s exactly what happened.
The president was, of course, not wearing a mask. He never does. Even when standing next to a bin full of hundreds of masks, in a mask manufacturing factory, he still managed not to wear one. And so, watching a clip of Trump being told how the mask works to prevent the spread of the deadly virus, it’s hard not to imagine he is off somewhere in his head, thinking about what he’s going to have for his dinner (that would be fries).
“Thats great, that’s great,” says Trump, as a Honeywell employee describes how the mask traps air particles. “How many do you make a day, Ryan?” he asks, breathing all over the bin full of masks.
Be safe out there, Truthseekers. Wash your hands. Remember, friends don’t let friends eat at Jesus Chicken.

Hi Kathy,
A person I worked with at my first summer job, disconnected from me many months ago. He is an “Always Trumper”. He could not argue with me and could not tolerance my views.
Here is an example of his willingness to ignore contradiction. He thinks you should be completely self-sufficient. He has money for retirement. Here is the rub. He got bariatric surgery as a birthday present for himself. He was fiscally responsible, but cannot shut his mouth.
Their bad actions are not important. YOUR bad actions are intolerable. It is the hypocrisy that I hate.

Beautifully expressed Kathy. Except for the shooting part it’s getting pretty much the same here in LA county. The lambs are being led to the slaughter of us all by crying that their rights and liberties are being taken away from them. Poor babies. They NEVER mention responsibilities that are the other half of living in a ‘free’ country. I’ll be most weren’t even able to speak yet at the time where the US government used to round up young men and send them to war in a cause they did either not understand or were completely against. That is a loss of freedom and liberty.
Gotta cut the bloated orange dickhead a bit of slack tho- He wore a pair safety glasses thinking it was a face mask. I’ll bet he tried on many to see which looked best.
Following today’s announcement of a Trump personal aid testing positive for the CV-19 virus let us show our concern and caring nature by passing the hat, after contributing to Mike’s show, to collect and send to the White House cases of Lysol, bleach and both oral and rectal light sabers to the president all for internal use of course. This coming on advice from Trump’s most beloved and trusted sources, himself. Let’s Make America Great Again!
I hope that Mike is alive and well? no Friday podcast no Saturday bonus?
