Washington, D.C. – Things are going from bad to worse for Raphael Warnock as more and more information comes out about the low-income housing complex owned by his church, Ebenezer Baptist.
Not only did the squalid building serve eviction papers to people for as little as $28.55 in past-due rent during the pandemic, but according to new reporting, they served three notices just last week!
More:
Residents told the Free Beacon that Columbia Residential, the building’s administrators, has become more aggressive in its rent collection policies, and sent out a notice in September saying it would no longer accept late fees and would start removal proceedings after five days of non-payment.
“If you don’t pay your rent by the fifth, a dispossessory notice comes out that week,” a resident told a Free Beacon reporter who visited the building in October. “They won’t accept the payment after the fifth.”
The latest evictions involved tenants who were just days late paying their October rent, and owed as little as $115, according to Fulton County Magistrate Court records filed by Columbia Tower.
Instead of running away from the problem as Raphael Warnock has repeatedly done, Herschel Walker ran toward it. Not only has he offered to pay ALL of the overdue rent (something Warnock could do with just a few thousand dollars of his monthly housing allowance), but he also went and visited the building himself.
We never knew churches to be in the eviction business, but then again we have never met anyone quite like Raphael Warnock.
Statement from NRSC Spokesman T.W. Arrighi: “Raphael Warnock is constantly protected by the local and national press. But Georgians know better. Not only is he far from the saint he makes himself out to be, but he won’t even take the slightest blame for his church evicting underprivileged residents from their apartments. This isn’t leadership, it’s cowardice. Little by little, Georgians are learning that they have not been told the truth about Raphael Warnock.”
