After questioning how the terms white nationalist and white supremacist had become offensive in a recent interview with The New York Times , Republican congressman Steve King of Iowa was harshly rebuked by GOP leaders and stripped of all his committee assignments in the current Congress.
We will not tolerate this in the Republican Party , House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) declared Monday, referring to Kings racist views.
McCarthy failed to mention, however, the many years of tolerance that the GOP including President Donald Trump has shown to Kings lengthy history of bigotry. King, who was elected to a ninth term in November and held seats on the House committees on agriculture, the judiciary and small business, has been repeatedly called out over the years for his ties to white supremacists and his incendiary remarks about race and immigration, including a 2017 tweet described as the most racist comment by a member of the U.S. Congress in decades.
As HuffPosts Christopher Mathias put it last year: All the evidence is there: King is a white supremacist.
Yet, save for the occasional verbal reproach , Republicans have largely turned a blind eye to the congressmans racism.

King is unapologetically anti-immigration. In 2013, he suggested that a vast majority of undocumented immigrants in the U.S. were drug mules.
For everyone whos a valedictorian, theres another 100 out there who weigh 130 pounds and theyve got calves the size of cantaloupes because theyre hauling 75 pounds of marijuana across the desert, the congressman told conservative network Newsmax TV about undocumented immigrants.

King has also referred to immigrants as dirt and has compared them to hunting dogs.
The U.S. should pick only the best immigrants the way one chooses the pick of the litter, King told his constituents in a 2012 Iowa town hall. You want a good bird dog? You want one thats going to be aggressive? Pick the one thats the friskiest ... not the one thats over there sleeping in the corner, quipped the congressman.
Kings idea for a massive, and possibly electrified , border wall at the U.S.-Mexico border long predates President Trumps. King first brought the idea to the House of Representatives in 2006 . In recent years, hes emerged as one of most vocal supporters of Trumps proposed barrier.

Steve King (@SteveKingIA) January 13, 2017
King, who adorned his desk with a Confederate flag , once suggested that America should not have to apologize for slavery .
Advertisement
In the 2014 protests in Ferguson, Missouri, following the shooting death of an 18-year-old black man by a white police officer, King said on Newsmax TV that racial profiling was not a factor because all the protesters were of a single continental origin .
King has repeatedly suggested that Western civilization is a superior culture . In an MSNBC panel discussion in 2016, he argued that white people had contributed more to society than any other subgroup.
Where are these contributions that have been made by these other categories of people that youre talking about? Where did any other subgroup of people contribute more to civilization than white people? King said.
