The ‘Rona is still roaring, but MAGAT governors don’t care. Cases are on the upswing in Florida and Texas, but, hey, “Feeeeedummmmmm”!” Birmingham and Richmond remove treason monuments with wildly differing results, Drag-named Virginia state senator Amanda Chase decries removal of Lee statue as “erasing white history. Fragile, she is. White-wing extremists busted in Vegas for planning an attack on peaceful protesters. Other white-wing monsters present at protests in Columbia, SC.

Prayerona Meetin’ Wednesday, Head-ON With Bob Kincaid, 3 June 2020
We interrupt Prayer Meetin’ Wednesday for remarks by President Barack Obama, given the cavernous leadership void in America today. Sometimes, it’s valuable to sit back and pay attention to the voices of our immediate present. Also: James Mattis finds his voice, a day late and a dollar short. In the midst of a national uprising over racism, Make West Virginia Great Big Ol’ Governor Jim Justice tries his hand at making WV a sundown state for at least one black man, anyway. And, of course, some news from Christianity, where a church in Idaho used the power of Reeeeeevival to create their very own COVID-19 spike.

Trumptanoronic Tuesday, Head-ON With Bob Kincaid, 2 June 2020
Why do police so constantly claim they’re in fear for their lives? Might it be because organizations like the NRA have made them that way? Regardless, if they’re so scared, maybe they need to be in another line of work. Then again, what other line of work makes it almost impossible to be fired and provides free top-shelf, silk-stocking lawyering when you trample the law and lynch a man? Humvees and other troop carriers have invaded D.C. A call from Mike Malloy in the midst of the protest in Atlanta.

Friday-Rona-The-Front-Porch, Head-ON With Bob Kincaid, 29 May 2020
An extra-heavy Front Porch gathering around the extraordinary, ordinary roundtable as the group confronts the reality of a country ablaze with Trump’s COVID-19 PanDonic and police brutality-induced racial tensions unseen since the late 1960s. Criminal charges have been filed against Chauvin, but it’s also apparent that people are working feverishly behind the scenes to make sure he never spends a day in jail. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
Thorona-in-the-Side Thursday, Head-ON With Bob Kincaid, 28 May 2020
Cop riot in Minneapolis, white-wing militia makes an appearance. Amy Klobuchar’s bid for VP likely tanked. Long history of violence by the cop who murdered George Floyd. How does a grand jury work and why? Wrasslin’ coach in Washington state puts up a video of him “proving” having a knee in your neck couldn’t possibly kill someone. Another Republican compares having to wear a mask to the Holocaust. Republicans/MAGATS in Pennsylvania weaponize the ‘Rona and a furious hero emerges.
Prayrona Meetin’ Wednesday, Head-ON With Bob Kincaid, 27 May 2020
100,000 dead Americans are “no big deal” according to well-known EVILgelical Gospel sharps. Former “Youth Pastor” busted after lying about being robbed. Ex-gay preacher says Gavin Newsom is “Goliath.” Ex-feminist lesbian English Professor claims gawd sent the ‘Rona to stop Pride parades. ICE Agents caught having sex with victims of sex trafficking. White-wing domestic terrorists threaten democratically elected governors. One, at least, got fired. Tests touted by Clorox Claudius turn out to be no better than a coin toss.

We’ve been discussing higher education this week and what on-line learning could mean to students in the future. Is this how we’ll be learning in years to come? Join in the conversation and let us know what you think about this topic.
Titaronic Tuesday, Head-ON With Bob Kincaid, 26 May 2020
Catching up with a weekend of madness. It’s almost as though the MAGAT governors wanted the spikes they’re getting. Clorox Claudius opens his war on masks. Insulin? Who ever heard of insulin? Viral Vespasian wonders aloud if he should take it. The NY woman who tried to get a man killed whines her life is “being ruined.” Murder in Minneapolis, as citizens take to the streets in protest.

We began our first hour revisiting our discussion with Dr. Kevin Shanley from yesterday where we discussed the political climate in China. We also touched on the subject of on-line education and it’s need since the pandemic. We asked the question of how higher education will fair in the move to the virtual realm. Will it try to continue in the traditional sense we’ve all become familiar with, or will it lean more toward distance learning?
Please join us in continuing this conversation and thank you for your continued support!

Hong Kong and China: a master class, featuring Dr. Kevin Shanley. You want to know what he knows.
Friday-on-the-Frona Porch, Head-ON With Bob Kincaid, 22 May 2020
A compendium of MAGAT anti-masker k-k-krazy. Virus vector church in Mississippi goes up in flames. Kayleigh MAGAninny lies that Americans haven’t “been able to pray” during the Pandonic Trumpandemic. There’s something not quite right about my absentee ballot. Much room for mischief.
Thornoa-in-the-Side Thursday, Head-ON With Bob Kincaid, 21 May 2020
Lots of per capitas. Lots and lots of per capitas. Another day, another privileged, stupid person throwing a fit about having to think of someone besides herself by wearing a mask. ZOMG! You’re breathing carbon monoxide! You’re hurting your antibodies! Another arrest in the lynching of Armaud Arbery. Biden eyes the Tim Kaine of Joe Bidens as a running mate. Please. No. No, Joe, NO. Anti-abortion industry exposed for the fraud it’s always been. Illinois MAGAT gets bounced from legislative session because “Feeeeedummmm!”
Prayerona Meetin’ Wednesday, Head-ON With Bob Kincaid, 20 May 2020
Glory! EVILgelical gospel sharp compares himself to Jesus because he held a church service that exposed 180 people to the ‘Rona. Another anti-masking covidiot throws a pity party, this time at Trader Joe’s . . . then develops symptoms. Hydroxy Hadrian claims he’s almost done with the course of Plaquenil he never took in the first place. He also did to Michigan and Nevada what he did to Ukraine . . . threatened to withhold aid if those two states don’t do his sick bidding. Our pal Dave is back in the blind and shared his story of the virus. Millions are losing their healthcare and Medicaid is taking a beating. This wouldn’t be allowed to happen in a civilized country.
Dr. Bill Obrien’s Virtual Civics Wednesday, 20, May 2020
It isn’t Christmas but we’re discussing the Tale of Two Santas’, the theory and strategy written by Jude Wanniski in 1976. He touted the theory within the Republican Party about tax-rate reduction, which it would seem someone took seriously, and it was carried out by our current government after the 2016 elections. It would seem that focusing on tax reduction, remember Paul Ryan, falls within the scope of those who need it least receive it rather than those who need it most.
Trumptanicorona Tuesday, Head-ON With Bob Kincaid, 19 May 2020
As West Virginia tries to figure out how to keep whitewater rafters socially distant in a rubber raft careening down an ancient gorge and foregoes the riverside buffets, Hydroxy Hadrian headed to the Senate today for a buffet luncheon with Republican senators so ancient they fart dust. No worries, tho’, cuz Viral Vespasian is on the Hyrdoxy, some call it the Hydroxy. Meanwhile, the MAGATS are shrieking for the execution of “that one” who used to live in our WHITE House because Michael Flynn. And Steve Scully over to the CSPAN has the worst job on earth.
Dr. Bill Obrien’s Vitual Center Tuesday, May 19, 2020
Plato’s allegory of the Cave tells us much about ourselves as a whole. It describes how we perceive the world around us and how we can come to the wrong conclusion with regard to our perception of reality. Right now knowledge is at a premium and it heeds us to pay attention to information that could be the difference of to be or not to be. That isn’t a question, it’s a percentage. The difference in being is based on accurate knowledge of the situation in order to see the situation clearly. Don’t be caught staring at the wall of the cave.
Moran Monday, Head-ON With Bob Kincaid, 18 May 2020
A late-breaking bit of moranity upended the program’s plotline. Hydroxy Hadrian claims to be taking the “Hydroxy.” Loves it. Says it’s “very safe.” Says he feels great. Lies through his teeth. I advance my personal theory as to what he’s taking. Suffice to say, it’s not what he thinks it is. Eric and Junior prove the apple isn’t the onliest thing that falls near its source. Karen wants to speak to the manager. Karen’s going to sue. Karen’s an idiot. She repeats propaganda lines that run straight to Mother Russia. Mike Pompeo’s problems multiply faster than ‘Rona particles.
