Democratic Georgia Sen. Raphael Warnock — who has praised Marxism and cheered the redistribution of wealth — has made a killing since he took office, The Post has learned.
The Peach State pastor — whose campaign was heavily backed by far-left billionaire George Soros — doubled his net worth from just over $1 million in 2020 to as much as $2.2 million in 2024, financial disclosure records show.
Warnock, 55, made history in 2021 when he became Georgia’s first black senator by defeating incumbent Kelly Loeffler in a special election.
He accused his predecessor during the race of using her seat to get rich.
But records show he almost tripled his annual earnings, going from $242,101 when he was a reverend in 2020 to bringing in on average $659,977 each year since becoming a politician — between salaries for his various gigs, book deals and investments, records show.
He raked in a total of $357,058 in 2024, but that wasn’t even his best year since joining the Senate.
Warnock pulled in $666,767 in 2023, a whopping $985,118 in 2022 and $541,965 in 2021, records show.
Senators all receive a $174,000 salary, and they’re only allowed to earn up to $32,000 from side hustles, which is about how much Warnock has been earning as a senior pastor at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta — the congregation once led by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
But there’s no limit on the cash they can rake in from book deals.
And Warnock has hit the jackpot there, cashing in more than $1.5 million since he was elected through a lucrative contract for his 2022 memoir about his path from the projects to politics, “A Way Out of No Way,” records show.
Eight months after he took office, Warnock signed a deal with Penguin Books and received a $243,750 advance that year.
He made $655,005 in royalties in 2022 when the book came out, and another $460,417 from sales in 2023.
And the junior senator wasted no time after his memoir came out. By June 2023, he inked a two-book deal with Penguin.
The first of that series — a children’s book about sharing called, “We’re in This Together: Leo’s Lunch Box” — came out last month.
The upcoming sequel, whose publication date hasn’t been announced, will be called “We’re All in This Together 2.”
Warnock has been making the late-night show rounds these past few weeks promoting his book, and the senator’s focus on his side hustles has irked some Georgians.
“This is not the time for you to be publishing a children’s book. You need to be in Washington fighting,” raged Atlanta product designer Courtney Dodd on the Senator’s Instagram.
“You know what would be great that you could do instead of going on TV selling your book? You could go back to DC and do your job,” lambasted Atlanta resident David Tyberg on Facebook.
Warnock has made use of his newfound income, shelling out $1.15 million in 2023 for a 4 bed, 3.5 bath DC pad.
The divorced senator also owns a 3,000-square-foot residence in Atlanta, worth an estimated $745,000.
In February, he called the GOP’s budget plan, which has since become part of the “big, beautiful bill” that passed the House this week, “irresponsible” for sweeping tax cuts he said would serve to enrich this nation’s billionaires.
“I do not believe that we ought to engage in what I call Robin Hood in reverse – robbing from the poor in order to give to the rich. That is the game that folks are up to in Washington, DC,” he said.
After he beat Loeffler, the Democratic rising star then went on to defeat Republican opponent NFL star Herschel Walker in a December 2022 runoff midterm election, securing a full six years in Congress.
A Soros-funded political action committee pumped $1.3 million into that Senate campaign, records show. Alex Soros – the billionaire’s son — has called Warnock “the epitome of the American dream.”
In 2022, Warnock was hit with allegations that he misused campaign funds to defend himself against a federal lawsuit stemming from his time as a pastor.
His office did not respond to The Post’s request for comment.
