Pastor Jamal Harrison Bryant, the senior pastor of New Birth Missionary Baptist Church, wasn't having any of Georgia Senate nominee Herschel Walker's nonsense today. Walker took issue with former President Barack Obama's fiery speech yesterday while he was stumping for Rev. Sen. Raphael Warnock.

Walker mocked Obama for living "in a big house," suggesting that the former President doesn't care about regular Americans. "It's a big house. It's a big house, so why is he worried about us?" the millionaire asked without one bit of irony. "He never worked a day in his life."

However.

Last year it was reported that Walker has lived in the same sprawling mansion near Dallas, Texas, for the last decade and has declared it his "homestead" for tax purposes.

Pastor Bryant can see through Walker, and in a spirited speech, he focused on some of the Georgia Republican's many faults. Bryant noted Walker's move to Georgia so he could run for the Senate. That's pretty much what Dr. Oz did, too. I'm starting to see a pattern here.

Bryant suggested that "change was taking too fast in the post-antebellum South," and they "were not prepared for a Black man and a Jewish man to go to the Senate at the exact same time."

"So, they figured that they would delude us by picking somebody who they thought would, in fact, represent us better with a football than a degree in philosophy," he said. "They thought we were so slow -- that we were so stupid -- that we would elect the lowest caricature of a stereotypical broken Black man as opposed to somebody who is educated and erudite and focused. Y'all ain't ready for me today."

Pastor Bryant said that white people have told Walker what to do for his entire life and even "where to pay for abortions."

"We don't need a Walker; we need a runner," he said. "We need somebody who is going to run and tell the truth about Jan. 6." He also said we need someone who will make Trump "respond to a subpoena."

Be sure to listen to the end of his speech. Pastor Bryant is on fire.

And Walker was just lying about Obama. He has worked before. That's just nonsense that can be debunked by a simple Google search.
