@thedailybeast @SollenbergerRC At this point, Hewitt recognizes the interview is going extremely poorly for Walker and tries to clean stuff up for him. Walker responds with a word salad. https://t.co/nFhdjhtNoi — PolitiTweet.org

@thedailybeast @SollenbergerRC The Walker said that he hadn't spoken to his son Christian since the first Daily Beast report about his other kids because Christian "started believing that I had other kids" and that was "totally not true." WALKER HAS THREE OTHER KIDS! WTF! https://t.co/LWnQni1rtk — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
Walker criticizes @thedailybeast and @SollenbergerRC for not retracting their earlier story that Walker had four children, but had only acknowledged one publicly. AFTER THAT STORY, WALKER ADMITTED HE HAD FOUR CHILDREN Now he's calling for The Daily Beast to retract that story? https://t.co/nnEBAb9Nvi — PolitiTweet.org

In other words, Walker is obviously lying when he says he has "no idea at all" who is accusing him of paying for an abortion. This is a poor choice when you are denying a damaging story and trying to get people to believe you. Then things got worse. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
@SollenbergerRC Hewitt then asked if he knew who was making the accusation. Walker, inexplicably, said he had "no idea at all." The woman has identified himself as the mother of one of Walker's children. So it's one of those four women. Pretending it's a mystery makes zero sense. https://t.co/X8qNYXCqGo — PolitiTweet.org

@SollenbergerRC Walker appeared this morning on Hugh Hewitt, a very sympathetic radio host. First, Walker said that he had not paid for an abortion but IF HE HAD DONE IT he would have been "forgiven" so everyone should stop talking about it https://t.co/AjlShJCJRf — PolitiTweet.org

Wow. I didn't think Herschel Walker's response to @SollenbergerRC's report that he paid for an abortion could get worse. But it has. A historic political train wreck. 🧵 — PolitiTweet.org

5. The use of anonymous money is not limited to Republicans. The Sixteen Thirty Fund, a non-profit that doesn't disclose its donors, donated $57 million to Super PACs supporting Democratic candidates in the 2020 cycle. https://t.co/QsgQ3vA8gE — PolitiTweet.org

4. One Nation can accept unlimited donations from corporations and individuals and then transfer them to @Senate_Fund The difference is that @Senate_Fund has to disclose its donors and One Nation does not https://t.co/QsgQ3vA8gE — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
3. Where does the @Senate_Fund get its money? The group's top donor is One Nation Through June 30, 2022, One Nation donated $33.5 million to the @Senate_Fund One Nation is a non-profit run by the same people as @Senate_Fund Its donors are secret https://t.co/QsgQ3vA8gE — PolitiTweet.org

2. No one is spending more money in 2022 than the @Senate_Fund, Mitch McConnell's Super PAC. In September, @Senate_Fund spent $82 million on campaign ads. All Republican candidates COMBINED spent just $33 million. https://t.co/QsgQ3vA8gE — PolitiTweet.org

1. 2022 is the most expensive midterm campaign in history and its being dominated by ANONYMOUS donors Follow along if interested. 🧵 https://t.co/QsgQ3vAG6c — PolitiTweet.org

Herschel Walker promised to file a defamation lawsuit against the Daily Beast on Tuesday morning. It's now Thursday morning. Still no lawsuit. — PolitiTweet.org

"He didn’t accept responsibility for the kid we did have together, and now he isn’t accepting responsibility for the one that we didn’t have. That says so much about how he views the role of women in childbirth, versus his own." — PolitiTweet.org

"I’m telling the truth. I’m not trying to glorify abortion—that’s a very personal choice that everyone has to make for themselves—but I have no shame in it. It is what it is. It’s part of my story, and what makes me who I am today" — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
She has this to say "I don’t think there’s anywhere in the Bible where it says ‘have four kids with four different women while you’re with another woman.’..Or that an abortion is an OK thing to do when it’s not the right time for you, but a terrible thing for anyone else to do.." — PolitiTweet.org

The woman who says Herschel Walker paid for her to get an abortion is also the mother of one of his children https://t.co/CT0hqyFWrR — PolitiTweet.org

"Months before news broke alleging that Herschel Walker paid for an abortion, top Republicans in the state — including those advising his team — warned him that the story could torpedo his campaign." https://t.co/8vM1gSyqzc — PolitiTweet.org

In the ad, Walker suggests he addressed these violent incidents in his book. That isn't true. — PolitiTweet.org

Herschel Walker is running a TV ad complaining that people are making too big of a deal of the fact that he threatened to kill his wife. This is not a joke. https://t.co/OTAQ2mwxwy — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
Instead, Walker has said he "never asked anyone to get an abortion" and "never paid for an abortion." It's unclear specifically what he means. In a lawsuit, he'd have to make that clear. — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
One problem with a lawsuit is Walker would need to specify HOW he was defamed. So far, he has not denied: 1. That a woman he was dating got pregnant 2. That she had an abortion 3. That he sent her a get-well card 4. That he sent her money in the card — PolitiTweet.org
Judd Legum @JuddLegum
UPDATE: Herschel Walker pledged to file a defamation lawsuit against The Daily Beast on Tuesday morning, claiming its story that Walker paid for an abortion was a lie It's now Wednesday afternoon. No lawsuit has been filed. https://t.co/lcZvKMfM1Q — PolitiTweet.org

8. Allegations that a candidate for U.S. Senate threatened to kill members of his family are serious, irrespective of party affiliation But Republicans are choosing to simply ignore it https://t.co/HcW9cVpouG — PolitiTweet.org

7. Other statements by Republicans, including messages of support from Trump and the @Senate_Fund, McConnell's group which is spending tens of millions to support Walker, also ignore Christian's claims https://t.co/HcW9cVpouG — PolitiTweet.org
