Christian Walker had some 'advice' for his father if he wants to be a Senator—and he didn't hold back.

Christian Walker—the son of failed Georgia Republican Senate candidate Herschel Walker—criticized his father and the Republican Party at large after the older Walker lost the Georgia runoff to incumbent Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock.

The younger Walker took his father to task for his litany of personal scandals and accused his father of making "a fool of [his] family" in a tweet outlining his father's history of violent and despicable behavior.


Christian Walker wrote the following recommendation to his father after the runoff was called for Warnock:

"Don't beat women, hold guns to peoples [sic] heads, fund abortions then pretend your [sic] pro-life, stalk cheerleaders, leave your multiple minor children alone to chase more fame, lie, lie, lie, say stupid crap, and make a fool of your family.."
"And then maybe you can win a Senate seat."

You can see his tweet below.

Christian Walker later followed up with a tweet admonishing former Republican President Donald Trump and the GOP as a whole, noting the Walker family had "begged" Herschel Walker not to run only to receive "the middle finger" as soon as he caved to Trump's demands.

He then accused Republicans of hypocrisy on the subject of identity politics, saying they only decided to support Walker "because he was the same skin color as his opponent" despite having no political experience whatsoever.

He concluded:

"A boring old Republican could have won."

Herschel Walker's campaign was marred by numerous scandals.

He faced scrutiny regarding past violent behavior, including a 2001 incident when police confiscated a handgun after he frightened his ex-wife Cindy Grossman—the mother of Christian Walker—with his "volatile" behavior and a 2005 death threat he leveled at his ex-wife and her boyfriend.

In October 2022, Christian Walker publicly accused his father of having threatened to kill him and his mother; shortly afterward, an ex-girlfriend told The Daily Beast that Herschel Walker swung his fist at her after she discovered him in bed with another woman.

But few scandals attracted as much attention as the one that raised questions about Walker's position on reproductive rights.

Recent reports revealed Walker fathered several children out of wedlock, paid for a girlfriend's abortion, and pressured her to get a second one despite coming out against reproductive rights and endorsing a proposal to ban all abortion procedures nationwide—even for cases of rape, incest and when the mother's life is in jeopardy.

Shortly afterward, The New York Times interviewed the same woman, as well as her friend, corroborating the original reporting by The Daily Beast. The woman additionally told The New York Times that she ended her relationship with Walker when he advised her to have a second abortion in 2011.

Family court records in New York confirm that Walker and the woman had a son, who was born in 2012. Earlier this month, Walker acknowledged that his accuser was the mother of his son, and as to whether she had an abortion, Walker claimed that he didn't "know anything about that."

Social media users soon offered their own commentary on the drama within the Walker family.



Walker's loss capped the most expensive Senate campaign in recent history.

Although Democrats had already secured control of the Senate following last month's midterm elections, the Georgia runoff was crucial in deciding whether Democrats will enjoy a true majority rather than a 50-50 split that would require Vice President Kamala Harris to serve as the tiebreaker on proposed legislation.

Warnock's victory means Democrats now have 51 seats to the GOP's 49, ending the power-sharing agreement that has been in place over the last two years in an evenly divided Senate, and making it easier for Democrats to implement President Joe Biden's legislative agenda.

The House GOP Just Shared A Tone-Deaf Tweet About 'Communist Regimes'—And It's Irony At Its Finest

Not getting the traction they need off their usual fearmongering, the GOP recently changed things up—in cooperation with the White House—from attacking immigrants to reviving the 1950s era "red scare," coming 70 years after the original led by Wisconsin Republican Senator Joseph McCarthy.

The change in tactics hinges on voters not knowing the difference between communism and democratic socialism.

MAGA Rep. Dragged After Making Bonkers Olive Garden Comparison In Push For Voter ID

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise was criticized after he, touting the "SAVE America Act," made an oddball comparison using Olive Garden to complain about the lack of voter ID laws.

The Trump administration has pushed to eliminate no-excuse mail voting as a central goal of the "SAVE America Act," a sweeping federal elections bill that, among other things, complicates voting for individuals whose legal name does not match their birth certificate and poses a restrictive photo ID requirement for voting that disproportionately impacts minorities.

Gavin Newsom Furiously Calls BS On Trump Admin's Reason For Freezing Over $1 Billion In Medicaid Funds For California And Minnesota

California Governor Gavin Newsom criticized the Trump administration following its announcement that it's withholding more $867 million in Medicaid funds earmarked for California and $199 million for Minnesota due to fraud allegations.

The Trump administration said the money will remain frozen until the states submit documentation proving the payments are legitimate and free of fraud. Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said the funds would only be released once both states provide the requested records.

Olympic Snowboarder Chloe Kim Sparks Debate After Calling Out Fans Who Only 'Facetune' Themselves In Photos With Her

Olympic snowboarder Chloe Kim is used to making headlines for what she does on the slopes. This week, though, she's going viral for something entirely different: a TikTok calling out fans who "Facetune" themselves in photos with her while leaving her completely unedited.

For anyone who's blissfully unfamiliar, Facetune is a photo-editing app that's become a social media staple, offering everything from skin smoothing and teeth whitening to facial reshaping and AI-powered filters. Some people use it with a light touch, while others opt for a much more dramatic transformation—but either way, it's a common part of posting selfies online.
