Kelly Loeffler is the 'Scratch & Dent' discounted version of Ann Coulter. Pic.twitter.com/3NWeVhXLZZ — Brian Anthony Bowen (@BrianAnthonyBo1) December 7, 2020 Has anyone actually seen Kelly. The latest tweets from @SenatorLoeffler. The latest tweets from @kloeffler. Kelly Loeffler said she couldn't in 'good conscience' reject the certification of electors for Georgia - reversing a decision she announced just two days before the tumultuous scene.

Senator Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) has demanded her Democratic opponent Rev. Raphael Warnock apologize for comments he made in a 2011 sermon about God and the military.

Loeffler and Warnock will contest one of two Senate runoff elections in Georgia on January 5. Republican Senator David Perdue will face Democrat Jon Ossoff in the second race on the same day.

A video of Warnock's sermon has resurfaced on YouTube and Loeffler shared a clip on Twitter on Wednesday. In it, Warnock can be seen preaching on the topic of serving God.

'I'm the daughter & granddaughter of veterans, and proud to serve on the VA Committee,' Loeffler wrote.

'@ReverendWarnock—this is despicable, disgusting, and wrong. You owe our active military & veterans—who sacrifice so much for our country—an immediate apology.'

Warnock says in the video clip Loeffler shared: 'America, nobody can serve God and the military. You can't serve God and money. You cannot serve God and mammon at the same time. America, choose ye this day who you will serve. Choose ye this day.'

The full video of the sermon, entitled 'When Truth Meets Power,' was uploaded to YouTube in April 2011 and can still be watched on the site, though it had just over 1,000 views at the time of writing.

In the video, which is just over three minutes, Warnock discusses politics in general terms. He has been senior pastor at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, Georgia since 2005 and the sermon appears to have been delivered there.

'Politicians try to keep their power. Political parties lie in order to keep their power. And church folk, yeah, you too, maneuver..in order to keep your power. And Jesus says, that's not power. That's paranoia,' Warnock said at the time.

'Because when you've got real power, you're not worrying about your place in the world. You know how to be exalted and you know how to be abased. You know how to sit high and you know how to sit low and you're not worried about your place in the world because you're connected with something that's greater than you and you're concerned about something that's greater than yourself.

'When you have real power, Jesus says that you'll lay it down so that somebody else can have some power. Real power will lay itself down on behalf of the powerless.'

Terrence Clark, communications director for the Warnock campaign, told Fox News in a statement that the sermon was 'based on a biblical verse that reads 'No man can serve two masters.. Ye cannot serve God and mammon,' a biblical term for wealth.'

'Reverend Warnock was speaking about the need to commit to moral life before pursuing other priorities,' Clark said. 'As the video of the congregation's response makes clear, this is another blatant effort by Kelly Loeffler to take Reverend Warnock's words completely out of context. Given her own decision to spend her first days in the U.S. Senate profiting off the pandemic, perhaps she should watch the sermon more closely.'

Clark was referring to accusations of insider trading made against Loeffler. A Senate investigation into the matter has been dropped. She denied any wrongdoing.

The runoff elections in Georgia may be crucial in determining control of the Senate. If Warnock and Ossoff succeed, the balance of power in the chamber will shift to the Democrats.

Sunday night brought forth one heckuva double feature: two separate debates for the Senate runoff in Georgia. Ordinarily such a hoedown wouldn’t receive national attention. But not only has this been one of the most intense election seasons in American history, but this particular runoff — set to happen on January 5 — may wind up flipping the Senate blue. (Also, it’s 2020, so everything is weird.) Earlier in the evening, Democratic challenger Jon Ossoff debated…well, not his Republican opponent David Perdue, but rather an empty podium, as Perdue didn’t show up. The other, between Republican incumbent Kelly Loeffler and Reverend Raphael Warnock was also weird, but in a much different way.

For one thing, Loeffler — who like Perdue has been accused of dumping stocks upon learning about the severity of COVID-19, which they’ve downplayed — delivered a performance many on social media called “robotic.” She was stiff, her words delivered as though by rote, as though she had memorized only a few scary Republican buzzwords and kept repeating them, no matter the question. But she used two words to describe Warnock more than most: “radical liberal.”

My Wife, who is NOT watching the debate, just asked me if I'm rewinding the TV, because she keeps hearing Kelly Loeffler say the EXACT SAME THING over and over, starting with 'Radical Liberal…'

I am NOT rewinding.
Ready to move forward with Reverend Warnock.

Lots of jokes were made.

Kelly Loeffler is a brainwashed Stepford Wife that is shorting out. She keeps repeating radical liberal…

Does Loeffler know any other lines besides “radical liberal”? Mix it up a little, you weird fembot. pic.twitter.com/Cyvsm8L5lF

The eTrade android should stop saying Radical Liberal every five seconds

So clearly @KLoeffler went in with a single strategy: just keep repeating “radical liberal Raphael Warnock” over and over and over like a robot. She didn’t, however, answer why she traded stocks on her inside Senatorial knowledge about the pandemic. #GADebate

This debate is a direct result of Trump politics.

We will see this same thing over and over again from Republicans in 2022 & 2024.

It's a robotic racist attack repeated over and over and over again. The most used line in this debate (more than 10 times) is 'radical liberal….'

“Radical liberal Raphael Warnock'

Others wondered if “radical liberal” isn’t the insult Republicans seem to think it is.

Jesus Christ was a radical liberal.

— Bradley Whitford (@BradleyWhitford) December 7, 2020

To #KellyLoeffler a 'Radical Liberal' is anyone not afflicted with privilege or willing to pad their portfolio on the bodies of dead Americans, and whose spirituality was not invented in the past 2 months.@ReverendWarnock is a decent human being. That makes him radical to her.

To her credit, Loeffler repeated other words as well.

Kelly Loeffler has 3 basic lines in this debate:

1) 'Radical Liberal' Raphael Warnock
2) 'SOCIALISM'
3) 'I have live the American dream.'

She says these 3 lines no matter what the question.

— Chris Cillizza (@CillizzaCNN) December 7, 2020

'radical liberal'

'socialist'

'They will take your guns'

'They will defund the police'

What do you notice about this?

Republicans have no ideas.

They have fear.

They use fear.

Because most of the time fear works.

But fear won't create any positive change for people.

— Don Winslow (@donwinslow) December 7, 2020

Others thought her overuse of the same words were just part of an overall poor debate performance, in which she avoided answering if she believes Donald Trump’s baseless accusations about voter fraud, and claimed to have been “exonerated” of accusations concerning insider trading.

Kelly Loeffler’s debate performance was such a disaster she should have gotten advance warning to sell her stock before

Wonder if Kelly Loeffler could pass the Turing test.

On the other hand, unlike Perdue, at least Loeffler showed up.

Senator Loeffler

The Georgia runoff is on January 5. If both Loeffler and Perdue are defeated, the Senate will flip to the Democrats and Mitch McConnell will no longer be Majority Leader.
