"""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.

Hell weather it......just like Jim Jordan did when they tried to get rid of him
Deep State, GOPe, whatever are so obvious......
What did Steve King’s friend (Ted Cruz) say about him?
They are the ones the Left goes after.
And we, like idiots, pay attention to the likes of Romney and silently accept the injustice.
WHT CAN’T WE BE AS STRONG AS OUR PRESIDENT...rhetorical
Whenever a Republican grovel and apologizes, or tries to "clarify," they immediately become compost waste.
You don't see Trump apologizing do you?
Steve King should have simply said "consider the source" and not made any further comment on the Slimes' hit-piece. He's factually correct. If we don't defend our heritage, our culture, and our Constitution, we're going to become a subsidiary of the UN.
Jordan didn’t backtrack or try to explain himself. He rightfully said the allegations were BS and they left him alone.
Go KING!! WE ARE NATIONALISTS WITH YOU!!
Stop projecting .
McCarthy at this rate will be finished in two years .
He is worse than Ryan .
Bingo, and remember he was voted in 149-53 ..,
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 .
Yep. Those McCarthy radio ads in Florida were a huge red flag for me. Somebody owns him big time. And it ain’t you or me.
It does seem McCarthy is well on his way to being another in a long line of doormat GOP “leaders.” Where do we find such men?
Those stupid ads were beyond awful .
They were clueless and embarrassing .
McCarthy will do to the DC Gop he did to Calif if he is not stopped .
Ryan 2.0
I know Rep. Steve King, and I know Steve King IS NOT a racist!
Steve King is a REAL AMERICAN, who stands four-square for America and the US Constitution!
He is opposed to illegal immigration, is pro-Life and pro-Second Amendment.
IMHO, he should be Speaker of the House!
Those Republicans who are trashing Rep. King are diminishing themselves by their adherence to the corrupt Politically Correct movement that is destroying all that is good about America!
The most reasonable explanation is that ONLY compromised men get put into those positions to begin with. Dennis Hastert was the most dramatic example, but who knows what the rest of them have hanging over their heads if they step out of line. The problem is that well-meaning but foolish GOP voters continue to support them, donate to their campaigns, etc. It’s a huge scam, and is barely even being hidden at this point, because they (perhaps correctly) suspect that they can get away with anything.
You related him to you, and you attacked us in defense of this worthless trash, so you are stuck with him.
Crow, fork, eat.

It’s Roy Moore all over again. Flimsy allegations twisted to destroy because of policy disagreements. Note ELECTED “Republicans” like Romney can get away with defacto voting for Hillary Rotten Criminal and still be pillars of the GOP.
FYI The Times only managed to survive taking out a $250 million loan from 'Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim' in exchange for what is now a 17% stake in the company, in 2010.....In their 2020 Report, they announced that management would be dedicating an additional $5 million every year to its presidential coverage.
Here's the fake article reporter:
Since 1994 Longtime 'New York Times' reporter .... "Trip Gabriel"....he extensively covers 'Presidential election campaigns'.. he's a propagandist machine for the left.
I’m going to call his office tomorrow and tell him that I support him!
He is a good man that is being “Alinskyized” by his own party because he is not politically correct!
This will backfire on the Republican leadership - buncha no spine WHIMPS!
“...and the GOP has no spine to stand against the fake claims.”
You would think that they would have contacted King for an explanation rather than believe the New York Times.
