EXCLUSIVE: Former Republican Senate candidate Herschel Walker’s campaign shelled out hundreds of thousands of dollars last year to a defunct car wash owned by a donor.
Between March 18 and Dec. 5, amid a heated race to unseat incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock, D-Ga., Walker’s campaign arm Team Herschel wired 11 payments worth $595,606 to Jetts, according to Federal Election Commission records. Other Walker-linked committees added nearly $270,000 in payments to the company during the midterm elections. Walker’s unsuccessful campaign spent more on private jet travel than any other campaign during the 2022 elections, a Fox News Digital review found.
Jetts, which received the Walker campaign cash, is Jetts Car Wash, LLC, a former Kennesaw, Georgia, business initially formed in 2015, state filings reviewed by Fox News Digital show. The business’ address was switched a year later to a residential address in Powder Springs, Georgia, and registered to an individual named Thomas Huff. Property records show the new address belongs to Huff, who, along with three relatives, gave maximum donations to Walker’s campaign.
The car wash was ultimately dissolved in October after it failed to file the required registration information with state officials. However, Walker’s campaign continued paying the business hundreds of thousands of dollars for “air charter” through December.

Huff told Fox News Digital that Walker’s campaign had a “lease” but didn’t elaborate on the details of such an arrangement and didn’t comment on the payments to his dissolved car wash.
“I don’t have any comment. You’re just trying to stir something up and hurt someone that’s a really good person,” Huff said in a phone call before abruptly hanging up.
