2/ Instead of money, we get this:
Copeland...well, he's been himself.
Blamed the virus on "hatred toward Trump."
Tithing: "You get your tithe in that church if you have to go take it down there and drop it off...or something."

3/ Copeland Pt. 2
Said he "healed" people.
Said Trump is a king: "It still is, because when you are born again—and he is—then you have been made unto our God a priest and a king, and he stands in the office tantamount to a king.”

4/ Pat Robertson
Claimed, while sitting at a table shilling his own products, said a "healthy gut" will protect you from coronavirus. Because the virus infects the lungs, I don't think that's true. https://twitter.com/RightWingWatch/status/1234576958899597319

5/ Benny Hinn
Asked for "worldwide prayer" and says, "We are living in historic times, foretold by the prophets of old, and one of the remaining signs of Christ’s coming is that the greatest revival in world history is soon approaching." https://www.bennyhinn.org/enewsletter/call-to-prayer-for-coronavirus-spread/

6/ Joel Osteen
Osteen's Lakewood Church did host an emergency blood drive on March 23. That's great. It really is. Even so, I imagine a few of his congregants could use just a fraction of his $40 million. https://abc13.com/religion/joel-osteen-holds-blood-drive-amid-covid-19/6032666/

7/ Rick Warren
Warren, pastor of Saddleback Church in California, urged his congregants to help others by donating food and supplies. This is great, but asking others to give isn't the same as actually donating your own money.

T.D. Jakes is a kind fella and offered "Resources to Comfort the Concerns Felt Around the World."
You might think this is money. Nope. He is releasing videos teaching people how to manage PTSD, escape addictions and talking to children. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/covid-19-response-t-d-181700297.html

Joyce Meyer said to give to food banks.
"We're all gonna experience some of that (inconveniences). Let's not complain about the inconveniences but thank God for what we do have...reach out and help them, esp people who have needs greater than your own." https://joycemeyer.org/handofhope/stories/our-response-to-the-coronavirus

I'll likely never be this popular again, soooo, with that in mind, I don't have anything to shill but ask that you donate to the following (and others)
