Herschel Walker, the Republican nominee for Senate in Georgia who has been a frequent critic of absentee fathers, has now acknowledged having fathered three additional children he had not previously mentioned publicly.
The news this week about Walker’s children comes after a series of reports detailing his exaggerations and outright falsehoods about his life before entering politics. He has falsely claimed that he worked as a member of law enforcement in Georgia and with the F.B.I. in Quantico, Virginia.
