"""Rep. Steve King Releases Statement – Debunks New York Times Report and Outrageous Accusations of Racism""" On Thursday The New York Times published a hit piece on Rep. Steve King (R-IA) and Trump voters. Reporter Trip Gabriel published the piece This quote by Rep. King is what got the most attention. According to reporter Gabriel, Steve reportedly said, “White nationalist, white supremacist, Western civilization — how did that language become offensive?” Mr. King said. “Why did I sit in classes teaching me about the merits of our history and our civilization?”

Of course, this caused an uproar in Washington and on all of the liberal networks — as you would expect if it were true.

If this is true then it sounds like #fakenews twisted words yet again to take someone down............and the GOP has no spine to stand against the fake claims.

King has already backtracked and the GOPe has denounced him as well.

The guy is toast in 2020. The best thing King could have done was to tell the NY Slimes to go to Hell. This was an obvious Alinsky hit-piece and once again Republicans surrender.

The slimesters in the Republican Party (e.g., McCarthy, Romney) wasted no time before they leapt all over the intentionally misleading NYT article in an effort to destroy yet another patriot.

McCarthy showing true doormat GOP “leadership” on this one. Leading the party right to permanent minority status. Not that he cares. I’m sure he and his family are getting rich.

BREAKING...so sad as Rep King says he did not say it that way - the left must have wanted him out bad so he could not tell Trump the crap they will be pulling.......”The House Steering Committee has voted to remove Rep. @SteveKingIA from his committee assignments, @KilloughCNN reports” https://twitter.com/jaketapper/status/1084977154142687233

Not like any of them did anything with those committee assignments anyway.

Something tells me that these fools are going to get very familiar with the word “minority”.

I don’t know what McCarthy’s religious beliefs are, but he sure knows the old Baptist hymn, “I Surrender All”.

He's not. Already the IA GOP has people lined up to primary him. Which is a shame because he's one of the most honest politicians who will call a spade a spade.

McCarthy destroyed the Calif Gop when he signed off on that awful Dem redistricting plan than wiped out the Gop .
He did this because it saved his district .

The man is pure cheap labor express K street scum .
