racist.

walker has a business worth $100 mill

Walker has lied so much about his businesses that such a claim is hard to believe now:

"The largest venture within H. Walker Enterprises appears to be Renaissance Man Food Services, a poultry products and distribution company, according to court records and Walker’s own public statements. In his December financial disclosure, Walker reported earning a $100,000 salary from the company.

He has described the company as a “mini Tyson Foods” and touted it as the largest minority-owned business of its kind in the country. He told the Dallas Morning News in 2009 that Renaissance Man Food Services employed more than 100 people and grossed $70 million a year. In a more recent interview, Walker told Fox News that the company employed 600 people.

Walker, however, has told a different story in government documents and in court records.

During the pandemic, Renaissance Man Food Services reported just eight employees on applications for two Paycheck Protection Program loans from the federal Small Business Administration totaling $180,000. The first loan in April 2020 amounted to $111,300 and has since been forgiven.

The large estimates of employees he has made to the press over the years appear to refer to chicken processing jobs, which are not actually part of Walker’s business. In reality, manufacturers supply chicken to Renaissance Man Food Services which the company then sells to retailers and other business under one of Walker’s food brands, court documents show.

In a 2018 lawsuit against his company, Walker backtracked from previous public statements he’d made about the poultry business and his involvement in the chicken processing plants. He acknowledged that the company didn’t own any plants, but that he partnered with the company that actually owns the plants to sell his branded chicken products.

“I don’t mean to speak of ‘own’ in a technical sense,” he said in a declaration to the court."

Looks like we'll be spared the embarrassment of US Senator Herschel Walker; all the major networks have called the runoff for Senator Warnock.

Hopefully any future ex celebrities and sports figures see this and forget about running.

@Booger
I wonder if republicans have learned ANYTHING from this? I doubt it. They will tout their house victory and play down the now 51 vote Dem side.

Explain how someone comparing one black man unfavourably against another black man can be racist. You’ve grasped the concept of racism about as well as you have communism.

Why it was so close is still slightly disturbing.

But look at his opponent. His church has anti-semetic speakers. He is unfair to tenants, he is a socialist,,,,,which may work in some capacity where your mob lives, but not in a country of free enterprise, etc.
If we go socialist, the whole world will suffer.
But we will lose in the end, there is no stopping parasitic people. I have my kids ready, though. Uhhh, y'all won't do away with net worth, etc, will you? Hadn't thought of that.

This is a "Debates" platform.
Not a "make up alternative facts as you go along" stage.

Clean up your act fellow American.
It's your... Constitutional Right.
And that requires your... Civic Duty.

I've had Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" playing in my head all morning long.

Hallelujah!
