The Daily Beast reports:
When Herschel Walker’s campaign aides approached him this winter to discuss whispers that Walker had a secret child, the Georgia GOP’s Senate candidate told his campaign the rumors were false. Walker’s aides already knew he was lying. They had expected him to lie, and had obtained documents in advance of that conversation verifying that Walker did indeed have another child, The Daily Beast has learned.
They handed the documents to him, and after some more back and forth, Walker finally admitted it was true. His aides asked if there were any other children they needed to know about. Walker insisted this was it. Emails and texts show advisers discussing how they don’t trust Walker—both to tell the truth to them and to handle campaign events properly—and harboring concerns that he isn’t mentally fit for the job.
Read the full article.
Emails & texts corroborate what the adviser describes as a “shitshow”—aides can’t trust Walker, who “lies like he’s breathing,” and the mock his intelligence and stability behind his back. They’re secretly investigating a new alleged child, because they don’t trust his denials.

Donors are allegedly bailing—including Home Depot megadonor Bernie Marcus, who threatened to pull a million-dollar gift after the kids were revealed. Worse, campaign officials have apparently been lying for months to higher-ups in the Republican Party about how bad this all is.
