Iowa Republican has come under renewed scrutiny for past remarks
The campaign arm of House Republicans will not be sending any last-minute support to controversial Rep. Steve King, who faces a competitive race in a deep-red Iowa district.
King has been the subject of renewed attention for racist remarks and social media posts backing white nationalists, following the shooting last week at a Pittsburgh synagogue that left 11 people dead.
Ohio Rep. Steve Stivers, who chairs the National Republican Congressional Committee, tweeted Thursday that King’s “recent comments, actions, and retweets are completely inappropriate. We must stand up against white supremacy and hate in all forms, and I strongly condemn this behavior.”

Can someone tell me when the democrats did this?
Crickets
King will win easily.
After 2016 I have a hard time believing any polls anymore. I'll go and vote next Tuesday and watch the returns Tuesday night, and just see what happens.
Ditto here.
Are Bob Menendez, Corey Booker, Keith Ellison, etc. “controversial”?
RollCall is not a news organization unless you only read DNC propaganda. There is no meat in this sandwich.
Yes.

Then read what the left wing smear machine has been SAYING about that interview. And I’m being serious. Read what King was asked and answered, then read how our media “reported” those things.
These “journalists” literally deserve to be assaulted in the streets.
King endorsed a Canadian candidate who is for all intents and purposes a white supremacist. We need to call this crap out and stop it. Good for the NRCC...
When the fascists/communists/glowbull revisionists/ parading as democrats attempted to throw out any references to God at their 2012 National Convention. They also indicated the ongoing attack on our constitution by employing a political device known as division. Creating such terms as “tribal”,”white privilege” aimed at replacing the concept of a national identity known as-Americanism. Which was created by a Constitution that included such declarations as “all men are created equal” “One Nation under God” and professes indirectly “We are all Gods children”.
All must be disregarded to create a perfect glowbull socialist state. Concepts like having a sovereign state is pure selfishness. Accuse those who advocate “Americanism” charge them of preaching Racial division and reactions caused by “white guilt”.
I recall something similar happening in 2006. Do you remember that?
It looks like Conservatism Inc are working to defeat King.

And we had Paul Ryan to urging candidates to localize their races and focus on issues like the economy, taxes and job (it is better to lose then win on immigration).

Go on, get outa here!
You have too much common sense to be a real concern troll FReeper.
The rest if "US" couldn't give a d@mn about rollcall's latest propaganda talking points.
I'll vote on Tuesday and just look at the returns on Wednesday morning.
Faith Goldy — I only saw two articles of her in forum [her name in title].
What makes her a white supremist?
The article assumes we know what King tweets. It’s in the Land O Lakes article linked to in Post #2.
King linked to an article by the Voice of Europe Friday that quoted Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban saying that cultures shouldn’t be mixed, arguing that it’s “against common sense.”
King tweeted the story with the message, “Diversity is not our strength.”
“Assimilation has become a dirty word to the multiculturalist Left. Assimilation, not diversity, is our American strength,” he tweeted.
Diversity is not our strength. Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Orban, “Mixing cultures will not lead to a higher quality of life but a lower one.” https://t.co/ZlMXzcc87w

King, one of the most vocal critics of immigration in Congress, has made controversial statements in the past, including praise for far-right European politician Geert Wilders.
He tweeted a cartoon of Wilders plugging a hole in a wall that read “Western civilization” in March.
“Wilders understands that culture and demographics are our destiny. We can’t restore our civilization with somebody else’s babies,” King wrote at the time.
Faith Goldy, an excellent candidate for Toronto mayor, pro Rule of Law, pro Make Canada Safe Again, pro balanced budget, &...BEST of all, Pro Western Civilization and a fighter for our values. @FaithGoldy will not be silenced. https://t.co/uqkeaUjm7i

Funny thing. I’ve never had a problem with any other race and having worked in sheet metal shops in MA and FL, I’ve worked with men from pretty much everywhere except from the middle east. (99% of them were assimilating or in the case of Afro-Americans, were already fully Americans)
Yet I feel the same way as Geert, Faith and Steve King. It’s more about the fact that muslims have no plan to assimilate. Hence Sharia courts in the UK.
“We can’t restore our civilization with somebody else’s babies”
That’s a good one right there.
They are trying to lose the House.
It makes their lives easier to not have to take a stand for American values. They do not want to reverse Obamacare. They do not want to stop the ignorant masses from taking over our country. They want to lose.
Frankly, if that’s the worst they have of King, I’d vote for him!
Faith Goldy a white supremacist?
I thought she just didn’t want Canada overrun with non-assimilating muslims. She sees what’s going on in the EU and doesn’t want it here. She’s also aware, as is Geert Wilders, that many muslims are still fighting a 1400 year old war against ALL Jew and Christians. They have NO plan to assimilate but to conquer slowly. Look at the UK which now boasts Sharia courts. Look at all the no go zones in the EU. Look at all the white women getting raped in the EU.
Is being against getting taken over by people who want to kill all the men and rape all the women, as they’ve done on and off for 1400 years, white supremacist?
OH!
If the following claim is true, then it was right to dump King:
