House Republican leaders will try to remove Representative Steve King of Iowa from the Judiciary and Agriculture Committees on Monday night as the party officials scrambled to appear tough on racism and contain damage from comments Mr. King made to The New York Times questioning why white supremacy is considered offensive.

Republicans trying TOO hard to be liked by Democrats!
You never see the Democrats throw their own to the wolves like this. They close ranks and downplay the offense. "No big deal. Comment was taken out of context." That's if they address it at all. And that's the end of it.
Republicans have always been spineless jellyfish this is NOT new..this is what the likes of Romney and others, they want to get their heads pet by the commie media, they RUN to the media to get a treat and a pat on the head that simple..with Democrats, they NEVER have to say they are sorry because well, they are Democrats and the media votes 100 percent Democrat, they will just never report it..the motto of the commie media is “If we dont report it, it never happened” ever read a story online and its NEVER reported on the news and someone tells you “What, I had no idea, was it on the news” and you say “No” well, its like it never really happened
Yes indeedee— to INCLUDE this idiot stooge of Ryan’s... McCarthy.
Want to have fun? Phone McCarthy’s office and ask him or his peeps if he is still banging now former Rep. Rene Ellmers R from NC— who won her seat from a longtime dem machine Tobacco politician, and then lost it because of BOTH of their moral turpitude-— that and the fact that the “trained RN Nurse” Ellmer’s husband— a surgeon found out about it. Nothing remains secret locally in Dunn, NC once that was out. Despite denial from both— which was weak— she missed out on leadership positions, and McCarthy withdrew his name for Speaker of the House.
He has some nerve— in this sense from questioning King’s defense of Western Civilization that is European based, and included all races, but not the fanatics of either BLM or WLM. IMHO— he is a follower, not a leader. Now.. Devin Nunes-— that guy is on fire sharp and persistent.
Soooo, she lost to a true kick tail conservative, George Holding, former US Atty for the Eastern District of NC.
UniParty GOP sucks.
Defending white supremacy is stupid.
If someone defended black supremacy, they’d be laughed at.
King needs to be careful at what he says.
Now people are lumping whites with King’s rhetoric.
I hate the Repukes.
They are not only spineless, but they throw their own overboard instead of pointing to the hypocrisy of the Left and telling them to “shove it”.
He sold out the Calif Gop to a Dem redistricting plan that destroyed the Party . the plan spared his seat .
McCarthy is a cheap labor whore and the worst K street con on the Hill .
Trump needs to remove this Ryan 2,0 .
You’re right.
As we speak this story is plastered all over CNN. They see blexit coming to the democrat party and they’re desperate to keep LBJ’s false narrative going.
He should sue the crap out of everyone involved in the manufacturing, broadcasting, printing and re-transmitting of the “white supremacy” and “racism” slander and liable.
Allowing the enemy to make up crimes to accuse us of is an idiot game to play.
Oh go stuff it. Trillions in debt and a treasonous FBI is what you got, sucker.
I agree as long as they ( whoever “they” are) should rebuke the Rats for all of their old white people should die comments. Short of that F em if they can’t take a joke.
....”maybe one in ten freepers today could be a GOPe critter”....
Possibly, but it’s not really hard to identify those generally. They usually get their pants in a knot quickly.
Something just flashed across my cell phone. Looks like he lost the House Committee Seats.
HOW DAMN DUMB OF THE REPUBLICANS.
JUST, HOW DAMN DUMB.
You said it-— haven’t been in NC since Ellmers beath Etheridge. Fortunately friends tell me George Holding is doing a great job— a Statesman. We need Jim Jordan as Speaker when we get the gavel back... and we will.
Can you believe that freaking opportunist grease hair Romney? Since when is it the business of a Senator to comment on a House member. Let’s start in on Romney’s offshore accounts and what Trump KNOWS about them from the Panama Papers. Can see where this is going-— Romney having met with Harry Reid to carry on the ..... golden books of revelation er something.
They ran the show here when you and Travis got booted for posting the truth instead of what’s politically correct. I think what’s left of them are now hoping to elect Nikki Haley.
Niki Haley will never see the presidency...not possible no matter what Freepers think about her. Just another self-serving and self-promoting politician.
Nikki will just have to be satisfied with her hobby of eradicating America’s past along with her yankee taliban comrades.
So many quislings and geldings in the repub party. Integrity-free losers. Pathetic .
They are not his friends - or ours.
