Republicans are gaslighting Ilhan Omar. Meanwhile Steve King retweets an actual anti-Semite — again
As the GOP gaslights Rep. Omar for criticizing the state of Israel for it’s policy positions vis-a-vis its treatment of the Palestinian people, and democrats in the House apparently moving towards condemning her to placate them , Rep. Steve King openly supports an Anti-Semite and White Nationalist for the third time.
“For the third time in less than a year, Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) has promoted an open white nationalist on Twitter.
On Friday, the congressman quote-tweeted Faith Goldy, a Canadian white nationalist who has publicly recited the “14 words,” a white supremacist mantra, and who once recommended a book that calls for the “elimination of Jews.”
Goldy also once appeared on a podcast produced by The Daily Stormer, a neo-Nazi website which advocates for gassing Jews. In that podcast, Goldy praised white supremacist figurehead Richard Spencer.
King is well aware of who Goldy is. In October, he endorsed Goldy in her longshot run for mayor of Toronto. The endorsement led to widespread condemnation of the congressman.
