With Senator Warnock back in DC today, someone should ask him why he decided to illegally use his campaign account as a piggy bank to fund his personal expenses? We eagerly await a response.
Statement from NRSC Spokesman T.W. Arrighi: “Raphael Warnock and his army of liberal hack lawyers think they are above the law. Seldom held accountable for his misconduct, Senator Warnock operates under the assumption that no one will bat an eyelash at the flurry of lawsuits in which he is currently embroiled – and that he can illegally use campaign funds as a piggy bank for his personal expenses. The shine is fading from the media’s darling as people realize that not everything is on the up and up with Raphael Warnock.”
