House Republican leaders voted Monday to remove Rep. Steve King (R-IA) from all of his assigned committees after the Iowa Republican came under fire for his comments about white nationalism in a New York Times interview.

If King's explanation of context and text of the actual quote are correct, he did nothing wrong.

Cracker deserves it. He should have said impeach the mother and it would have been all good.....;)

I don’t know what he said. Or how it was meant. But, if Glunt is right, as he usually is, then shame on anyone selling this man out. And, double whammy on any fool that thinks it was a good idea.

Yes, this is the NYT, but it appears he has made similar comments in the past and this reaction might be from the cumulative behavior, not this one incident. If accurate, I totally agree with distancing from him.

Well then maybe he can just go back to writing horror novels??

How's that for context?
