Raphael Warnock Lives Free in $1 Million Luxury Home—Purchased by His Church

Senator Raphael Warnock from Georgia is living in a luxury home provided by Ebenezer Baptist Church, where he serves as a part-time pastor. This arrangement has raised ethical questions and criticism.

• Warnock resides in a five-bedroom house worth over a million dollars, purchased by his church for $989,000 in 2022.

• He lives there rent-free and does not pay property taxes, as church-owned properties are often tax-exempt.

• The church's decision to buy this luxury home has caused concern among some church members, including those affiliated with civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

• Dr. Albert Paul Brinson, a former associate of King, expressed that King would not have approved of the luxury accommodations.

• Warnock has not publicly discussed his housing arrangement but has encouraged church donations for a fundraising campaign.

• His financial disclosure indicates he earned $31,800 from the church and nearly $461,000 in book royalties in 2023; it is unclear if he donated to the church.

• Warnock's housing benefits have come under scrutiny due to allegations that the church also evicted low-income residents from another property during the pandemic.

• While ethics experts indicate that the arrangement may comply with Senate rules, concerns about the ethical implications remain.

Raphael Warnock's living situation has sparked debate regarding ethics and fairness, especially given the contrast between his luxurious accommodations and the struggles of low-income residents evicted by the church.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

  Multiple U.S. states governed by Republicans are withdrawing state funds from BlackRock's management, as they disapprove of the ESG investment policies of the world's top asset manager, the Financial Times reports.

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
