Falwell ‘Incapable’ Of Taking Responsibility, Threw Wife Under Bus

Hey, they’re leaving their reality show in 2021 after all these years.
I’ve never watched it. Won’t miss it at all.

But yeah, Josh and TPM have a thing for this story. Can’t report on it enough.

Ask yourself: if this had been a young woman, would you be calling her a whore as well?

I don’t know which I find more infuriating – the endorsement via blackmail, or the nonsense about needing a “businessman” as president. The government just isn’t a business. I mean, yet, anyway.

He may have been of the age of consent, doesn’t mean that he wasn’t being groomed and manipulated by people in positions of power and wealth abusing that for their own kicks. Becki sounds like quite the predator when it comes to young men.

The only difference between them and Epstein is 2-3 years.

I agree with you, and since I tend to follow the “no harm no foul” standard of personal behavior, I have no animus for the man-whore or the Falwells. The stunning hypocrisy is the real outrage here, not their personal behavior. But give it a year and they’ll all be laughing it up on some talk show. That said, there should be an army of accountants descending on Liberty U as we speak.

Well, if she was doing it for money… that’s kind of like the job description.

If she was accepting money for providing sexual favors, that is pretty much the definition of “whore”. But in the case of women, the use of the word has been abused for so long and women have been denied other means of earning a living for centuries. So no I would not a call any women a “whore”. Except for the verbal-whores like Kellyanne Conway and Sara HuckSan.

If she parlayed sexual favors into multi-million dollar real estate deals? What do you think?

He’s right, and the press fell for it hook line and sinker too. Falwell’s press release the night before the story broke blamed his wife for ‘having an extramarital affair’ and Granda of blackmailing him over it. This is after years of rumors that more than an affair happened and Jerry was involved too. But what did the major networks all report… the exact thing Falwell wanted them too, that ‘his wife had an affair on him’. Hell CBS News ran that story angle for 3 days, two of which where after Granda’s statements came out saying Jerry was involved too.

Just another sad story on how the MSN can be manipulated into reporting what a conservative want them too.

Do we know she was under? :grimacing:

According to Cohen in his interview last night, Cohen just spoke to the attorney of the person who had the photos (a friend of Granda’s) and threatened him with extortion charges if the photos were not made to go away. He did not indicate what assurances he received of their deletion, but seemed to believe the discussion had its intended effect.

And that is exactly what is happening.

Everyone seems to be blaming Becki Falwell for being a predator—but Jerry is just as guilty.
Perhaps if Jerry had been interested in Becki—instead of being interested in watching the Pool Boy----this might have been a different story.

There’s a strong gay subtext to Jerry’s behavior, and it’s being glossed over in every story.

We know Jerry and Becki will.

(BTW, of course her name is spelled with an “I”.)

FARTWELL will be back. He will do the Jimmy Swaggart thing and the marks will gladly double down with the tithes for him to continue his Pulpit Pimping Lifestyle!

She is a Cougar all the way, but I do remember when I was 20, I needed no grooming, I needed the opportunities!!

Unfortunately, I believe Cohen as much as I believe Trump.
Cohen said there was no collusion with Russia also.

The GOP is the party of hypocrisy, pure and simple.

Not really. Some cuck-fetishits get off on being humiliated. For others, it’s a weird validation of their manliness, as in, “I’m so awesome that my wife is so hot the pool boy wants to bang her.” The Falwells seem not to have been too terribly inhibited in their sex life, and Granda has no reason to hold back any same-sex details at this point.

Jerry Falwell Jr. is not a minister. He ran Liberty U as a businessman, not as a preacher.

You mean other than a fat book advance.
