"...Jesus Christ gave Holy Communion to Judas Iscariot."

No he didn't. If one views the synoptic Gospels in light of the book of John it becomes clear that Judas left the other 12 in the upper room before Jesus engaged in the "this is my body" ritual. "and then it was night"

Mahoney probably hasn’t read his Bible in years.

I find that only John’s Gospel explicitly records that Judas departed, but John does not record the initiation of the Blessed Sacrament. The other three Gospel writers describe the “this is my body” ritual, but make no mention of Judas’ departure, either prior to or after same.
