Douchebag GOP Rep. Steve King Literally Toasts Border Patrol Over Deportation Of A 23 Year-Old DREAMer

From the Des Moines CBS affiliate:



A tweet posted by Rep. Steve King toasting border patrol for a deportation is causing a stir on the internet. The tweet in question says, “First non-valedictorian DREAMer deported. Border Patrol, this one’s for you,” and includes a photograph of a mug full of beer.

The tweet refers to the deportation of 23-year-old Juan Manuel Montes. Montes, who was in a program to shield people who came to the U.S. as young children, was detained by Border Patrol in February, according to the Associated Press. This is not the first time King has caused controversy on Twitter.

Several Iowa leaders condemned King in March for tweeting support for far-right Dutch politician Geert Wilders, implying that “our civilization” can’t be restored with “somebody else’s babies,” referring to Muslims, and warned of a liberal effort to break down western civilization.
