Former NFL player and current GOP Senate candidate for Georgia Herschel Walker is feeling the consequences of some of his more bizarre claims. A new campaign ad put out by his opponent, incumbent Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock, features Walker's own words.

Walker previously claimed to Glenn Beck that he had access to a "dry mist" that could "kill the virus," just by walking through it, during a 2020 appearance on Beck's podcast.

Walker said:

"Do you know, right now, I have something that can bring you into a building that would clean you from covid as you walk through this dry mist?"
"As you walk through the door, it will kill any covid on your body. EPA-, FDA-approved."
"When you leave, that will kill the virus as you leave, this here product. Then, I have something—you can go and spray down this product."
"Do you know? They don’t want to talk about that. They don’t want to hear about that."

Walker never specifically named this supposed miracle spray that could kill COVID-19 with a simple spray when entering or exiting a building.

The campaign ad put out by Warnock accuses Walker of pushing a "snake oil body spray for COVID" before asking if Walker is really the right person to represent Georgia.

A seemingly magical spray to kill COVID is far from the only bizarre, or downright disturbing, thing Walker has said.


Twitter users were definitely not buying Walker's claims, and many agreed with Warnock.





MeidasTouch, a political action committee (PAC) originally created to stop the re-election of Donald Trump in 2020, compiled a list of the top 10 most "bizarre and dangerous" things Walker has said.

In addition to the bizarre and dangerous, Walker has also made some plain ridiculous claims.

Like his belief Donald Trump has never claimed the 2020 election was rigged, saying the claim has only ever been made by members of the media.

Trump, of course, repeats this claim of election fraud at nearly every public appearance he makes.

'Young Sheldon' Star Explains Why She Asked For An Intimacy Coordinator On The Show—And It Makes Sense

Entertainment journalist and Glamour magazine Senior West Coast Editor Jessica Radloff's new book, Young Sheldon: The (Juicier-Than-Meemaw’s-Brisket) Inside Story of the Hit Comedy, shared a story about actor Emily Osment joining the show in its fifth season that's drawing praise for her consideration for her fellow child star, Montana Jordan.

Osment, who began acting at age five, is one of a rare breed in Hollywood—a child star turned successful adult actor. It's a journey many kids have infamously stumbled on, but that Jordan has also successfully navigated perhaps in part thanks to Osment.

Texas GOP's Bizarre Text Warning Voters About 'Weirdo Furry Socialists' Sparks Mockery

A Texas political action committee sparked online mockery after multiple people independently told the San Antonio Current they received a text message urging Texans to vote Republican to keep so-called "furry Socialists" from choosing their leaders.

The message was sent Saturday alongside a photo purportedly showing a man wearing a fox-tail accessory as he left a polling location in Collin County. The message identified its sender as Texans for Common Sense, a political action committee funded entirely by Texans United for a Conservative Majority PAC, a far-right organization backed by West Texas oil billionaire Tim Dunn.
