How do you fight evilTrump, Steve King, Alex Jones, the Sackler Oxycontin family, just from today's headlines without being infected by hatred yourself? This the dilemma l find myself struggling with again this morning.
Steve King Ф Follow My Statement on Kevin McCarthy's Unprecedented Assault on my Freedom of Speech King Statement Regarding Leader McCarthy's Decision "Leader McCarthy's decision to remove me from committees is a political decision that ignores the truth The truth is as follows: One of my quotes in a New York Times story has been completely mischaracterized. Here's the context I believe accurately reflects my statement. In a 56 minute interview, we discussed the changing use of language in political discourse. We discussed the worn out label "racist" and my observation that other slanderous labels have been increasingly assigned to Conservatives by the Left, who injected into our current political dialog such terms as Nazi, Fascist, White Nationalist, white supremacist,-western civilization, how did THAT language become offensive? Why did I sit in classes teaching me about the merits of our history and our civilization?"...just to watch Western Civilization become a derogatory term in political discourse today. Clearly, I was only referencing Western Civilization classes. No one ever sat in a class listening to the merits of white nationalism and white supremacy. When I used the word THAT it was in reference ONLY to Western Civilization and NOT to any previously stated evil ideology ALL of which I have denounced. My record as a vocal advocate for Western Civilization is nearly as full as my record in defense of Freedom of Speech. Ultimately, I told him'You have to do what you have to do and I will do what I have to do.'I will continue to point out the truth and work with all the vigor that I have to represent 4h District lowans for at least the next two years."
Steve King My statement on the New York Times article. Today, the New York Times is suggesting that I am an advocate for white nationalism and white supremacy. I want to make one thing abundantly clear; I reject those labels and the evil ideology that they define. Further, I condemn anyone that supports this evil and bigoted ideology which saw in its ultimate expression the systematic murder of 6 million innocent Jewish lives. It's true that like the Founding Fathers I am an advocate for Western Civilization's values, and that I profoundly believe that America is the greatest tangible expression of these ideals the World has ever seen. Under any fair political definition, I am simply a Nationalist. America's values are expressed in our founding documents, they are attainable by everyone and we take pride that people of all races, religions, and creeds from around the globe aspire to achieve them. I am dedicated to keeping America this way. This conviction does not make me a white nationalist or a white supremacist. Once again, I reject those labels and the ideology that they define. As I told the New York Times, 'it's not about race; it's never been about race.' One of my most strongly held beliefs is that we are all created in God's image and that human life is sacred in all its forms."
