Falwell Jr. and his U.S. Evangelical followers certainly are morally bankrupt. We simply don’t know if Cohen’s accusations are true.

Will Wikileaks publish the pictures that Junior is suppressing? Not unless Putin says, “Yes!…oohhh, yes!!!”

Update: The Miami Herald reports that they have seen 3 pictures of Rebecca Falwell in “various stages of undress.” However, they can’t authenticate the pictures. Two appear to be taken at the Falwell Farm and one at the Cheeca Lodge, an $800.00/night gated resort off the Overseas Highway in the Keys.

This reminds me of watching the Mark Driscoll meltdown, when it gradually became clear that the train had no brakes and was going to crash.

Thanks for the helpful context and link. We know Cohen, like Trump, is not to be trusted. Curious how Falwell Jr. has invested much energy (and money) to associate himself with such morally deplorable people. This is how history will remember Falwell and his Evangelical followers.

Just to be clear, Cohen’s claims about the photos actually come from a recording secretly made by the actor Tom Arnold on March 25, 2019 and first reported by the Wall Street Journal on April 24. It’s unclear which parties had the pictures, Granda or the Fernandezes or the lawyers. Here’s a recent story from the NYT: The Evangelical, the ‘Pool Boy,’ the Comedian and Michael Cohen

Pool attendant Giancarlo Granda, the one who was handed $1.8 Million from Falwell Jr, denies knowing anything about Trump’s former fixer Michael Cohen and Cohen’s claim about compromising photos involving Falwell, his wife, or both. Given Cohen’s track record, such claims may very well be nothing other than a complete fabrication. As for Falwell handing $1.8 Million to a pool attendant with no business experience or training, Falwell Jr. can explain that one himself.
