I'm less worried about Larry Craig except as an example of liberal hypocrisy - support LGBT+ except where their politics differ, then they're free game. I don't get the vice squad thing in 2019 - if people want to cruise, let them, as long as no threat to kids, general public health. "Wide stance" was funny as a term, but really, who did he harm? It seems a safe selective signaling paradigm. As for Falwell, yes, he's running a billion dollar org dedicated to discouraging these freedoms plus backing/enablung a criminal traitor as president - this is in the "public's need to know" category, like a dangerous pharmaceutical that's being covered up or simply mass dangerous fraud.

Josh Marshall wrote a piece on this story today...I posted it down the section a ways but will copy it here and delete there
Don, Jerry, the ‘Pool Boy’ and The Times
As per your title, I recall he tends to like to follow "intriguing" stories of exactly this kind, like oh say, the Senator Larry Craig story
