Does silver solution cure COVID? Jim Bakker's 2020 claim, checked

Televangelist Jim Bakker's silver solution COVID cure and apocalypse food buckets anchor a blunt obituary of the PTL scammer who just died.

A Fox News obituary covers PTL, Heritage USA and the Jessica Hahn scandal, and the court record fills in the rest: Bakker's wire fraud conviction drew a 45-year sentence that shrank to eight, and he walked out on parole after about five years. Marjoe Gortner's death gets the tribute Bakker never earned. Gortner's documentary exposed the trade from inside, from sweat-activated forehead ink to staged healings to Haiti appeals that raised $350,000 a month while only a few thousand reached Haiti. Shane Vaughn's 2022 broadcasts come back next. He brands BLM demons and Nephilim and calls Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson a jungle monkey spouting monkey sense. Then he reads an apology that a Joy-Ann Reid clip, apparently from the same episode, undoes with a racist slur. Gene Bailey's eulogy for his friend Jim Bakker insists the man admitted his mistakes and served his time. The sentencing numbers, the food buckets, the Bible pitches and Bakker's February 2020 silver solution claim, which brought regulators' fines and refunds, all contradict Bailey. Hank Kunneman's Captain Zepto closes the episode. Kunneman tells Christy Hare that God gave him this Trump-haired space hero, who serves King Elion, while he was blow-drying his hair. The "digital download" ships as a DVD, and the interview ends with an appeal for cash. Subscribe, leave a review and check the website for more episodes holding televangelist grifters to the record.
