And Let's not forget about the other Deplorables

Lo and behold...


Michael Cohen, Trump's former attorney, says he helped the Falwells block the release of racy photos [CNN]

The President's former fixer. A prominent evangelical couple. Allegations of blackmail and sexual indiscretions with a hotel pool attendant.
It sounds like the plot of a lurid page-turner, but this story is true -- and it just keeps getting stranger...

Now, Michael Cohen, President Trump's former personal attorney and fixer, tells CNN that he intervened to make sure revealing photos of the Falwells were not released publicly in 2015. Cohen, in a statement to CNN, identified Granda as the person who may have possessed the photos.

"These were personal photos between a husband and wife that Mr. Granda somehow came into possession of," Cohen told CNN. "I dealt only with his attorney to ensure that, if Mr. Granda actually did possess them, they would never be released publicly."

Jerry Falwell Jr. embroiled in controversy over affair allegations

"Jerry and Becki (were) very upset at the prospect of its potential public release," Cohen continued.

And donors may want to start asking about how their tax-deductible funds donated to Liberty University are being spent:

Falwell told CNN he will receive a $10.5 million compensation package from the evangelical school: $2.5 million to be paid during the next two years and another $8 million thereafter.

As the university's president and chancellor, Falwell was paid about $1.25 million per year.

Falwell told The Washington Post his Liberty contract entitles him to the severance package because he is departing the school without being formally accused of or admitting to wrongdoing.

Why is it that the Preacher's kids are always ho's and douchebags?

 

[TX-Beau]

I also very much hope that Liberty U crashes and burns in the most spectacular fashion....or I would be happy if it just dwindled away and died a quiet death. Unfortunately, I suspect that we are going to see a much more reactionary and hard line approach from the Board and they will be looking for someone with real Baptist cred to re-build after this.
If the new President of the University has enough 'star' power....they may come out of this even more dangerous than ever since they won't have guilty open secrets that might be used to neuter their influence.

Southern Baptists became Southern Baptists in order to KEEP slavery. Hypocrisy is ingrained. The greatest commandment has always been, do as I say not as I do and god will forgive us all - have another beer...

^ We all knew that Cohen would be in the mix somehow.

The lesson in this is that eventually, as the Cohen characters turn against their mob bosses and the pool boy finally spills the beans on the hypocritical trash he blackmailed for all these years, that the sins of the rich and dirty and famous Trumps may all come out as well, non-disclosure agreements or not.

I am reminded almost daily now of the Roman historians who chronicled the fall of the Republic and the licentious, criminal and depraved behaviour and acts of the Imperial era. We are watching the narrative in real time.

I was warned by an aged historian when I was about 12 years old that I would likely see the fall of the American Republic in my lifetime and the rise of corrupt and venal autocrats. He could see the seeds being sown even then in the post-war era for the seizure of the State by the richest individuals and corporations and was sure that the fundamentalist christian churches would also be part of the machine that would bring this about. Of course I look back and realize that he was seeing the Southern strategy being played out and the rise of the military industrial complex as a result of the Vietnam debacle.

Unless an American takes an advanced History class in college, we either do not get education on our own history or we're given a very sanitized version.

Much of what is going on right now is a repeat of other things that happened in the 1840s with Andrew Jackson, things that happened in the 1910s with Woodrow Wilson or things that happened in the 1950s with Joseph McCarthy (and the sycophantic Republican Party that enabled him).

A lot of the people mentioned in this thread and in the " caught having sex with the menz" thread are connected with evangelical Christianity and the Religious Right movement. The QAnon followers are largely from the evangelical community. The Cult of Trump followers also overlap with the Religious Right. It's apparent that there's a pattern. It's a common theme in autocracies and populist governments across the globe.

What is different is that we're not all living in the same reality. We don't agree on basics of the truth. That's why we have people who refuse to wear masks. It's why we have a bunch of people sitting in their homes who are about to get hit by a category 4 hurricane that they believe is a hoax. It's why we have a group of people - some of whom are running for public office- who believe that there's a Deep State pedophile ring who sexually abuse and eat children.

We haven't heard from the personal trainer yet. Wifey wasn't party to those private training sessions.

Looks like someone is trying to clean up their IG....

Crosswhite's deal was pretty sweet. Buying a facility from a University because they give you the money to buy it and take the mortgage.

I assume that he was the next alpha who helped Falwell live out his fantasy as a closeted voyeur cuck. At the very least.

Recurring themes....

Kalamazoo pastor paid teenage boys to have sex with his wife, police say [Michigan Live]

A Kalamazoo pastor accused of sexually assaulting four male victims between the ages of 15 and 17 is said to have paid the children to have sex with his wife while he watched.

The Rev. Stricjavvar “Strick” Strickland, of Kalamazoo’s Second Baptist Church, has been charged with 11 felonies connected to alleged incidents spanning from Aug. 1, 2015- Aug. 31, 2018, according to a probable cause affidavit filed last week in Kalamazoo County District Court.

Kalamazoo NAACP Leader’s Home Raided In Sex Crime Investigation [WBCKFM]

WWMT reports that the Michigan State Police were at the Rev. Strick Strickland’s home for several hours Thursday, as they executed a search warrant at the residence on Prairie Ave. Authorities say that they are investigating allegations from more than one victim on charges of criminal sexual conduct and pandering, which the Michigan Penal Code defines as a charge related to procuring a woman for prostitution by threat, persuasion, or promises.

The MSP wouldn’t say who they were investigating, and no charges have been filed as of yet. Of the search, in comments to various media organizations, Rev. Strickland of Second Baptist Church said it was just an attempt to sully his name.

Allegations of impropriety first came to light after the murder of Aniya Mack in Kalamazoo earlier this year. Mack's ex-boyfriend, Donnovan Lewis, allegedly told police that he killed her after he became enraged that she was engaging in a sexual relationship with Strickland. Mack was a member of Strickland's church, and Lewis alleges that Strickland threatened her if she came forward about their relationship. Mack had also been driving a vehicle owned by Strickland's wife.

Repressed pathological predators hiding in plain sight.

The tragedy is the damage they do along the way...and the mystery is how they can reconcile their actions with their religious 'rules'.

 

[rareboy]

Speaking of pathological, notice anything in common about these guys?

[TX-Beau]

I'd like to see the pictures of the trainer just fucking railing the cabana boy. Jr. can be jacking off in the corner, just off camera.

I would bet cash that both of those guys knew exactly what was going on (with Jr's head - heh,) and like good hustlers, capitalized on it. Pay for play Jr. I seriously doubt there are any victims here.

Well, if it means a couple of million and my own business, sign me up.

God knows, I've done worse for less.

If only Daddy had let Jr. be the little Queen he so obviously wants to be - Liberty University wouldn't be short millions of dollars. It's kind of sad in a car crash kinda way.

You have this middle aged men, obviously lusting after these young guys - throwing up cash, real estate, and even his wife's cooter to get near them in some kind of sex by proxy fashion. It's the definition of pitiful, I mean MY GOD, where is your self respect?

If only he'd been able to bankrupt Liberty along the way. Think of that, Liberty, broke, reputation in shreds, headed by a pathetic closet case, pimping out his wife just to get a glimpse of some young, hard cock. Wouldn't Daddy be proud.

 

[rareboy]

There's no question that it wasn't his wife he was busy watching.

But at the end of the day, even being sympathetic to kink doesn't excuse the rank hypocrisy...and the harm that he has done.

But he also has done everyone a big favour by laying bare the rank hypocrisy and taking a battering ram to the smug Falwell empire and fake university. If the parents aren't dissuaded from spending their cash to get Johnny and Mary their religious education....I'll bet that this has produced a huge shift among the student body.

And he's answered the question about why Falwell supported Trump over Ted Cruz.

 

[TX-Beau]

I would love to know how the students suddenly feel about all those medieval rules they're forced to accept.

I know sadly what it probably is though, they'll claim that the hypocrisy doesn't diminish the message, and they are more worthy for not being hypocrites themselves - all the while implicitly being big old hypocrites.

Ahhh Southern Baptists, so contrary.

I think this is what they mean when they say that the US has two justice systems - one for poor people and one for the wealthy.

 

[rareboy]

wow.

I figured this POS would get a promotion instead of fired.

I imagine that Trump will be snapping him up for cabinet asap.

Texas Assistant Attorney General Nick Moutos said he was ousted from his position after posting tweets in support of QAnon and against LGBT people.

News of the assistant attorney general's ouster was first reported by The Texas Tribune, after a left-wing watchdog report surfaced that Moutos had made comments about QAnon and LGBT people on social media.
