Steve King: Migrant Teens Are “Prime Gang Material”

Mediaite reports:



The most shamelessly racist Republican in Congress is back on his bullshit. Rep. Steve King of Iowa — who, just recently, retweeted a neo-Nazi and cited a white supremacist publication on his congressional website — commented on a photo of seven Hispanic boys and claimed they are “prime MS-13 gang material.” Given King’s history of promoting white supremacy, the tweet should come as no surprise, but he still received a barrage of backlash from pundits, journalists, and other Twitter users for reaching peak white anxiety.
