"Falwell Jr., for his part, says he hopes that his story will inspire others in crisis to seek mental health resources.
“I shouldn’t have been afraid to admit my vulnerabilities and to reach out for assistance from the mental health professionals who could have alleviated this pain and stress,” he wrote.
“I am committed to speaking out and sharing with others at Liberty the importance of seeking counseling instead of thinking you need to be tough and try to bear these burdens on your own.”"
C'mon, Jerry - take off the dress. This right here is exactly what is wrong with this country.

I've well and truly learned that lesson. Asking for help is a personal and social dumpster fire.

I assume it can also be a professional get-out-of-jail-free card. At least the first time.
But yeah, I can imagine.

Let's not lose track of the most important lesson in this. Never hire a pool boy named Giancarlo. I mean, seriously, how dumb can you be?
It's as bad as hiring a 24-year-old Au Pair named Elsa or Gretchen...
Hiring a pool boy is bad enough, but if you do hire one, get someone with glass, acne, and named Milton...

That. Is. Huge. News.

In a claim likely to intensify the controversy surrounding one of the most influential figures in the American Christian conservative movement, a business partner of Jerry Falwell Jr has come forward to say he had a years-long sexual relationship involving Falwell’s wife and the evangelical leader.
Giancarlo Granda says he was 20 when he met Jerry and Becki Falwell while working as a pool attendant at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach hotel in March 2012. Starting that month and continuing into 2018, Granda told Reuters that the relationship involved him having sex with Becki Falwell while Jerry Falwell looked on.
Granda showed Reuters emails, text messages and other evidence that he says demonstrate the sexual nature of his relationship with the couple, who have been married since 1987. “Becki and I developed an intimate relationship and Jerry enjoyed watching from the corner of the room,” Granda said in an interview. Now 29, he described the liaisons as frequent – “multiple times per year” – and said the encounters took place at hotels in Miami and New York, and at the Falwells’ home in Virginia.
His friendship with the Falwells eventually soured, Granda told Reuters, in part because he wanted to dissolve his ties with the couple and fell into a business dispute with them.
