Pelosi calls on GOP leaders to take away Rep. King’s committee gavel
By Cristina Marcos - 03/14/17 02:20 PM EDT

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Tuesday called on GOP leaders to remove Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) as chairman of a subpanel within the House Judiciary Committee as punishment for his controversial comments in support of a nationalist Dutch politician.

King has doubled down on his original Sunday tweet praising Dutch politician Geert Wilders, saying “we can’t restore our civilization with somebody else’s babies.”

Steve King: 'People hyperventilate over a tweet'

I listened to King yesterday on the radio, and he seems well informed about Europe's demographics and cultural problems.

The problem across Europe is failure of native born citizen populations failing to replace themselves by birth rates.

To fund benefits, and feel good, governments have brought in outsiders, ignoring the fact they are illiterate and don't work or pay taxes.

King is right. And Pelosi is part of the status-quo problem, not the solution.

Maybe you should withhold comment until you actually see what Rep King said in context, Mr Speaker.

Whatta putz.

BTW how insane have things gotten that you can't even recognize that its better for a country to be able to repopulate itself the the extent that it doesn't have to depend upon importing citizens of other countries to maintain its economy without giving do-gooders the vapors.

I wish these politicos would learn that just because you are asked to comment...you really can just keep your mouth shut... turn and walk away rather than open your mouth and let everyone know you really are an idiot.
