"I take anything you say with a grain of salt I will look this up and call you back"

Spoilers: he won't call back

What a moron!! These people cannot refute the truth. I love when you call them out on it!

I am so happy you brought up the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence the other day. I am so disappointed in the LA Dodgers. I’ve lived in LA 44 years and am beyond disappointed in their actions. My son is a fashion designer and has dressed two Sisters in SF at their annual fundraiser. He dressed the first Sister when he was still in high school. He had recently come out as gay and loved drag. The Sisters embraced him like they do everyone they encounter and support. Sister Mora Lee Declined took a chance on him as a teenager designer and they rocked the runway! Their work is incredible. Generous , uplifting and full of love. Shame on the Dodgers!

I heard this fool in real time, Michelangelo! Those silences on his part in response to your questions were priceless. I doubt that he will be calling back.

Hi Mike, once again you display a certain calm I could never achieve... to deal with the ignorant, the uninformed, those within the MAGA information silo seems to be your calling.. this caller talks about taking your information with a grain of salt...well, I’d sure as hell tell him where to place that grain of salt... hope you and your partner have a relaxing weekend, ready to deal with these loons on Monday.

Complete buffoonery. You called him out. Awesome. 👏👏👏👏It’s fair to say that a good 40% of people in this country bathe themselves in lies, misinformation and hate. They wear their ignorance as a badge of honor. It’s revolting. We must continue to counter their lies with facts. Not sure what good that will do. We’re at a nexus and juncture of when ignorance meets untreated mental health issues combined with unlimited access to guns. Bad combination

...but we have to come up with a better way to reach more people, and motivate LGBT and our allies to fight back, cuz Orbán’s Hungarian Christian Nationalism or 1950 is looming.

Separation of religion? (At 32 seconds in)

That's right, Sakina! Let the kids grow up with their bible training and blindly follow their pastor and the GQP governor.

I heard that clown 🤡

Personally I think he got you mixed up with someone else, and called the wrong show...

“The ignorance we’re dealing with” is exactly the problem. We are in the middle of a Republican ‘blitzkrieg’ to roll back the clock to 1950, so fast and so furious, that it’ll be over before we can mount a defense.

There are a lot of Johns from North Carolina. I hear it from straight people, who fine with gays, but are uncomfortable with “children being pushed to be trans” 🙄 It’s so important that you use your show to speak real world truth to all the Johns,

The "nor prohibiting the free exercise thereof" is a pseudo-argument, a stand in for "I get to impose my religion upon you, even though it's actually inconsistent with my religion's teachings, and I really don't know what I'm talking about in the first place."

And we know that, of course, because he had no answer to your very rudimentary question, Michaelangelo. He can give no examples because there aren't any.

So, if turned away by ambulance or hospital due to tightly held religious beliefs, after expiring from that waste of time, can also be turned away by the “Undertaker” as well. Out in rural areas there is often just one choice. What are they going to do, leave a body out to rot ? All this fuss, so immature “I don’t like you, you’re different, you’re icky, get away from me, cooties”. Why is it adults cannot move away from 8th grade level ? No wonder they love and adore their GOOS, Great 🍊 One Savior. “Birds of a feather...”
