Loeffler praised Rev. Raphael Warnock from the pulpit of his church, now says he’s a dangerous radical.

Long before Kelly Loeffler started calling her Democratic rival Rev. Raphael Warnock the “most radical and dangerous candidate in America” who “has espoused radical views from the pulpit,” she shared that same pulpit with the reverend and praised the work of his church during a MLK day event.

In January, Loeffler visited the Ebenezer Baptist Church, where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr was a pastor in the 1960s and where Warnock currently serves pastor.

With Rev. Raphael Warnock seated behind her, Loeffler called the church a “sacred place” and said she was “surrounded by men and women who advance the cause of freedom.” According to Judd Legum Popular Information newsletter, she specifically praised Ebenezer Baptist Church, under the leadership of Warnock, as a place that “puts words into action.”
