Exposé on Jerry Falwell Jr. alleges group sexts, racy photos, and more about the ‘personal trainer’

An explosive exposé about Jerry Falwell Jr. published by Politico reveals a smutty side to the evangelical leader that many would consider unbecoming for the president and chancellor of the world’s largest Christian college.

According to multiple current and former employees of Liberty University, most of whom spoke under anonymity due to ironclad non-disclosure agreements, Falwell runs a “totally dysfunctional organization” and is “very, very vocal” about his sex life around the office.

One former university official recounted an awkward car ride he took with Falwell about ten years ago.

“All he wanted to talk about was how he would nail his wife, how she couldn’t handle [his penis size], and stuff of that sort,” the former official said.

Others allege that Falwell frequently texts sexually explicit messages to male colleagues, including sending them racy photos of his wife Becki in various sexual poses.

One of the alleged photographs featured Becki dressed in a sexy French maid costume.

Falwell allegedly meant to send the photo to his and Becki’s personal trainer, Ben Crosswhite, as a sort of “thank you” for helping her to reach her fitness goals, but he accidentally sent it in a group text to a bunch of other people.

Falwell denies this ever happened, telling Politico, “I never had any picture of Becki Falwell dressed in a French maid uniform and never sent such a non-existent photo to Ben Crosswhite.”

Though the claims do compute somewhat with a report published by the Miami Herald earlier this summer that confirmed at least three photos of Becki “in various stages of undress” exist.

Two of them were taken at the family’s farm in Virginia and the third was taken at a vacation lodge in Florida.

Many of the sources also told Politico they were uncomfortable with the couple’s relationship to Crosswhite, who was offered a sprawling, multi-million dollar, 18-acre fitness facility belonging to the non-profit university plus an additional $650,000 from the university for almost nothing in return.

One of the people familiar with the sweetheart deal said, “We gave Ben everything he asked for.”

Crosswhite declined to comment to Politico about the deal or his relationship with Falwell, though when the story first broke last month, he did put out a statement saying: “My wife and I consult each other before every major business deal and we bought the complex from Liberty together. My wife and I both work around the clock to make our business succeed.”

Boxer Anthony Joshua Says He’ll Fight in Saudi Arabia Despite Death Penalty for Homosexuality, Abysmal Human Rights Record

Boxer Anthony Joshua was asked about his participation in an upcoming world championship fight against Andy Ruiz in Saudi Arabia on December 7 despite the country’s abysmal record on human rights, particularly toward gay people.

Said Joshua to BBC Sports’ Natalie Pirks: “There are certain polices that are in place in the country and there are certain policies we just have to abide by, and I abide by the law and that’s just how it goes in certain places. …

Said Pirks: “If you’re gay, you can be put to death there. That’s not abiding by the law, that’s taking the fight somewhere where a country is…”

“I feel like in this situation I’m damned if I do and damned if I don’t, a certain thing I can’t win for,” Joshua continued. “I feel like I stand in the middle and I feel like boxing is just trying to open up the barriers for people to travel and see. If you cant come to the country, you can still watch it, you’re still open to support and I appreciate your support from every community. I feel like so many communities have been through a lot of stuff, even my own community, we’re still going through stuff. If I’m going to fight for one cause, I’m going to fight for every cause and right now the cause I’m fighting for is getting my belts back. I do want to put on that cape and be like the spokesman but I’ve got some big tasks ahead of me at the minute. I feel I’m still young, I’ve still got time – there will be a time where I may be more involved in certain aspects where we stand up and try and make change.”

Trump Attacks ‘Boring’ John Legend and ‘Filthy Mouthed Wife’ Chrissy Teigen, Who Clap Back with Ferocity

Donald Trump attacked John Legend and Chrissy Teigen after the couple appeared on an MSBNC town hall on Criminal Justice Reform hosted by Lester Holt. Trump bitterly raged about how he didn’t get enough credit for it.

Tweeted Trump: “When all of the people pushing so hard for Criminal Justice Reform were unable to come even close to getting it done, they came to me as a group and asked for my help. I got it done with a group of Senators & others who would never have gone for it. Obama couldn’t come close……..A man named @VanJones68, and many others, were profusely grateful (at that time!). I SIGNED IT INTO LAW, no one else did, & Republicans deserve much credit. But now that it is passed, people that had virtually nothing to do with it are taking the praise. Guys like boring………musician @johnlegend, and his filthy mouthed wife, are talking now about how great it is – but I didn’t see them around when we needed help getting it passed. “Anchor”@LesterHoltNBC doesn’t even bring up the subject of President Trump or the Republicans when talking about………the importance or passage of Criminal Justice Reform. They only talk about the minor players, or people that had nothing to do with it…And the people that so desperately sought my help when everyone else had failed, all they talk about now is Impeaching President Trump!”

Legend and Teigen clapped back swiftly.

Tweeted Teigen: “lol what a pussy ass bitch. tagged everyone but me. an honor, mister president.”

And Legend: “Imagine being president of a whole country and spending your Sunday night hate-watching MSNBC hoping somebody–ANYBODY–will praise you. Melania, please praise this man. He needs you. Your country needs you, Melania.”
