Warnock's words keep getting more controversial Friday, December 18, 2020 | OneNewsNow.com Staff (OneNewsNow.com) Spanish A controversial candidate for U.S. Senate in Georgia faces even accusations over past statements, drawing more scrutiny for his far-left extremism. He is Raphael Warnock, a Democrat and pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta. In a 2017 sermon he leveled criticism at the U.S. Senate for passing a billion dollars in tax cuts to bring a correction to the economy. Warnock said members of the Senate “declared war and launched a vicious and evil attack on the most vulnerable people in America.” He then went on to compare the federal government as evil and wealthy King Herod.
