How quickly do you all think the mainstream media will ignore this bombshell story about Raphael Warnock and his church? Gonna guess if Free Beacon didn’t break this story we’d have never known about this shockingly bad story.
Keep in mind, this is a church and this guy is a PASTOR.
Well, also keep in mind that Warnock is a Marxist, too. DAMN ... and for all we know ... he could be a Georgia Bulldawgie Fan, as well!!!
Andrew Kerr (@AndrewKerrNC) ~ NEW: Records obtained by @FreeBeacon reveal Raphael Warnock's church, which pays him a $7,417 monthly housing allowance, secretly owns a low-income apartment building that tried to evict residents during the pandemic.
One for just $28.55 in late rent.

Did we mention they pay Warnock over $7k a MONTH for a monthly HOUSING allowance? Yeah.
And they were going to evict someone over not quite $30?!?!
That is insane.
Oh wait, it gets worse.
Andrew Kerr (@AndrewKerrNC) ~ Since early 2020, 12 eviction lawsuits have been filed against residents of Columbia Tower at MLK Village, which Warnock's church owns 99% of.
The average rent owed by the residents clocked in at just $125 a month.
The building has received over $15 million in taxpayer funding.
$15 million in taxpayer funding.
Read that again.
And they’re evicting people?
Warnock has some ‘splainin’ to do.
Andrew Kerr (@AndrewKerrNC) ~ "They treat me like a piece of shit. They're not compassionate at all," Columbia Tower resident Phillip White told me.
White is a 69-year-old African American who says he served in Vietnam and received an eviction notice on Sept. 20 for failure to meet a $192 rent payment.
Vet.
African American.
Getting evicted over not quite $200.
Andrew Kerr (@AndrewKerrNC) ~ The building tried to evict White in September 2021 for $179 in past-due rent. He said the case was dropped after he paid up, plus an additional $325 in fees.
White plans to fight his latest eviction, but he will do so without legal representation. He doesn't even own a phone.
Doesn’t even own a phone.
DAMN ... ya mean lil' Barry didn't even give him an Obama Phone?!
Andrew Kerr (@AndrewKerrNC) ~ None of the residents of the building I spoke with had any idea that Ebenezer Baptist Church owned their building.
One resident told me she was served an eviction lawsuit during the pandemic after she paid her rent one day late.
Yikes!
Andrew Kerr (@AndrewKerrNC) ~ A Fulton County marshal carried out a court-ordered eviction notice less than 3 weeks after Warnock sent this tweet.
The resident was sued for late rent of just $28.55.
And this is what Warnock tweeted back in August of 2020?! Oh my!
Reverend Raphael Warnock (@ReverendWarnock) ~ US Senate candidate, GA Unemployment benefits have expired, rent is due today, and many Georgia families are at risk of eviction in the middle of a pandemic.
My opponents are supposed to be serving the people in Washington, but they're clearly only concerned with serving their own interests.

What a sweetheart.
Andrew Kerr (@AndrewKerrNC) ~ "Plaintiff DEMANDS ... Possession of the premises ... Past due rent of $28.55 for the month(s) Feb ... $75.00 Late Fee + $60.00 Court Cost + $250.00 Consq Exp."
This lawsuit was filed not even halfway into February 2020. The resident wasn't even 2 weeks late paying their rent.
Andrew Kerr (@AndrewKerrNC) ~ Warnock's church has the resources to help these people.
It pays Warnock a $7,417 monthly housing allowance as he serves in the Senate, and the church's audited financial statements obtained by @FreeBeacon show it ended 2021 with cash and "cash equivalents" exceeding $1.2 mil.
They give him thousands a month for HOUSING … while people in their rental properties suffer.
How very Christian of them all.
Andrew Kerr (@AndrewKerrNC) ~ Ebenezer Baptist Church owns the building through a network of shell organizations connected to the Ebenezer Building Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charity that delegates all management duties to the church and identifies Warnock as its principal officer in its IRS Form 990 filings.
WOW.
Andrew Kerr (@AndrewKerrNC) ~ Ebenezer said in a June application seeking $5 million in funding from Georgia to renovate the apartment that it owned 99% of Columbia Tower, and that its charity was founded in part to facilitate its ownership of the building.
Note the building address. Same as the lawsuits.
Busted.
