The Hill reports:
Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) on Tuesday retweeted a prominent far-right British activist who has described himself as a Nazi sympathizer. “Europe is waking up… Will America… in time?” King wrote in a quote tweet of Mark Collett, the former chairman of the Young British National Party (BNP).
Collett, a well-known far-right activist, has said in the past that he admires Adolf Hitler, and was the subject of a documentary called “Young, Nazi and Proud.” In the documentary, Collett calls AIDS a “friendly disease because blacks, drug users and gays have it,” according to The Huffington Post.
As you’ll see in the 2017 clip below, King has a long history of supporting white supremacists and other extremists.
