Would be best to remove him entirely from office!

Now they need to remove trump!

hardball why is the GOP.all of a sudden worried about Steve King, this guy has been spewing this crap for years

Democrats just make excuses if it were reversed. New York Times hires racists. MSNBC hires known bigots maga walkaway potus votepimps toxicliberalism

GOP Removing from committee. Huh. He can still vote for issues that he believes in? I do not feel much better for blacks, women, and LGBTQ.

Now let’s see if Democrats discipline the LouisFarrakhan supporters that are on committees

After GOP has been practicing NATIONWIDE VOTER SUPRESSION, VOTER FRAUD, GERRYMANDERING AND VOTER INTIMIDATION....FROM FL, TO THE DAKOTAS, TO AZ, AND ALL POINTS IN BETWEEN...you good old boys punished 1 guy...lol. He lost committee positions. Robbery of people's votes.

Are you trying to pull the wool over our eyes....you are one to, except you try and keep it on the low low, Kings just the opposit, he shows his, and isn't afraid to be himself. Right or wrong that's the way it is.

Now..onto their racist so-called leader!!

He's restricted to just passing racist legislation now....gerrymandering activities, and racist votes... Lawrence

Now do trump.

JSno_Buni Hey i was wrong. It didn't take him literally killing someone.

strchld269 Why is he still serving at all? RemoveSteveKing

Great. Now do Trump. Then open the fucking government.

SteveKingIA should be expelled from our government immediately. SteveKingResign ExpelKing

Stop altogether wasting my taxes on this bigot. Lock him up and drain him out of Congress

itsabouttime

Rep. Steve KKKing*

Pc culture has run a muck!! Just because you do and say racist thjngs for your “entire” career, you shouldn’t be labeled a Racist! CensorShip

But Democrats embrace Louis Farrakhan? Media is totally silent on this....

Mconnell needs to go next

And

Much ado about nothing, move along! Nothing to see here!

King, meet Franken.

Great start... but he needs to go! His constituents are all colors and nationalities. Not ok to let him stay! For goodness sake gop!!! Grow a pair!!!

hardball great

hardball The Wall is one of Rep. King’s ideas.

Well, Trump gave hamburgers to Clemson players because there's no one to cook. Rep. King is now useless in Congress, he can be the president's personal chef.

Steve King is part of the reason why the racist people of this country feel the GOP is their party. There are many more SK in the party. UNFIT DJT is another one.

hardball And don't let the doorknob hit you on the way out, Stevie

And the Dems continue to get away with everything..

Yes Steve, this is exactly the time when supporting racial superiority went out of favor, at least for your Republican buddies. The rest of us got it since time immemorial.

How many years does the GOP Steering Committee get to be asleep at the wheel before making a maneuver? In this case...16.

Seems a bit hypocritical considering that they stand by Trump !!!!!

Great! But he’s been saying horrible things forever. Every bit as racist & SUPER insane. Like this whopper from July ‘13. He’s claiming that of highly vetted, DACA program participants, 99/100 are 130 lbs, running drugs, with a cantaloupe-sized calves? He just got re-elected.

One down MANY more Thuglicans GOP to go!!

Thank you.

What took them so long? He’s been spewing this vitriol for years.

Sorry Paul Ryan, they found their balls hiding behind your locked door.

JoeyWesthead I wonder if Kevin should have have been removed back when?

scib0rg CENSURE HIM!! 😠

Will the Dems be removing senators for their religious bias comments as well

Can they also remove trump also.

Thank you! We all need more positive actions to counter the negative tRump game.

Are you paying attention realDonaldTrump ?

Now can we get rid of Maxine waters for her black supremacy comments

ResignRacistSteveKing

Rep Steve King responded that he will be joining another committee, and left wearing his white robe..

no one cares

Wow! Finally Republicans do something right by and for the nation. 👏

Why wont the Democrats hold themselves accountable for things they say. They are pathetic.

Do they mean from office? They should mean “remove Steve King from office”.

How about voting to open the government

Remove him from the House

What about all of trump’s racist comments and actions. They’re gonna ignore that

Republican congressman faces growing pressure to resignJust hours after Republican leadership announced that Republican Rep. Steve King of Iowa wouldn't be seated on any committees this Congress because of recent racist comments he made, there is growing pressure for the congressman to resign — though Republicans are still far from being united around that idea. And yet, there is no similar pressure on trump. I like the 'including from Republicans' part, implying (correctly) how extraordinary it is that some from the GOP would push back against one of their own for musing about white nationalism. Yet realDonaldTrump can call SenWarren Pocahontas in a derogatory way and mock the tragedies of WoundedKnee & Bighorn and no one tells him that's not cool! Why is everyone besides the president having to deal w/the consequences of their racism? NativeTwitter Accountability
