John is a strange liar

John is a strange liar.

He lies on six days of the week, but on the seventh day, he always tells the truth.

He made the following statements on three successive days:

Day 1: "I lie on Monday and Tuesday."
Day 2: "Today, it"s Thursday, Saturday, or Sunday."
Day 3: "I lie on Wednesday and Friday."

On which day does John tell the truth?
