1. Blackmail

I'd like to hear from Pecker.

Should be fun watching Falwell run from the graduation ceremonies

[Kingofalldems]

2. Are there some sort of tapes out today?

[malaise]

3. Cohen recorded stuff that has been verified

Wait for an 'I have sinned' from Falwell - looks like the pool boy story is true

[lordsummerisle]

6. As Mike Malloy would say

"have I told you how much I hate these people...?"

[malaise]

8. Ditto

All scum - all thieves, all con men (and women).

4. No, the news has been covering Cohen handling some racy pics

of Falwell, Jr. et ux and a threat of blackmail.

5. Her report was based on a Reuter's exclusive reported here:

Falwell, president of Liberty University, one of the world’s largest Christian universities, said someone had come into possession of what Cohen described as racy “personal” photographs — the sort that would typically be kept “between husband and wife,” Cohen said in the taped conversation.

According to a source familiar with Cohen’s thinking, the person who possessed the photos destroyed them after Cohen intervened on the Falwells’ behalf.

Cohen, who began a three-year prison sentence this week for federal campaign violations and lying to Congress, recounted his involvement in the matter in a recording made surreptitiously by comedian Tom Arnold on March 25. Portions of the recording — in which Cohen appeared to disavow parts of his guilty plea — were first reported April 24 by The Wall Street Journal.

9. That photo with the Con shaking his hand while he couldn't even look up

speaks volumes.
calling Mr Pecker!!

[NewJeffCT]

12. photos between a husband and wife?

I don't know what that means? Did they make sex tapes of themselves? Between a husband & wife implies there was no pool boy involved, no?

[Ilsa]

10. I wonder who twisted Falwell's arm for the endorsement?

Trump or Cohen?

[rzemanfl]

11. He has two arms. n/t
