GOP congressman sympathizes with Austrian far-right after Auschwitz visit
After going on trip to Poland funded by education group, Steve King meets with Freedom Party, says Germans shouldn't have to apologize for Holocaust anymore

Rep. Steve King of Iowa met with members of a far-right Austrian political party and gave a sympathetic interview to a related publication after participating on a trip to Poland sponsored by a Holocaust education group.

King, a Republican, met with members of the Freedom Party, or FPOe, in Austria following an August trip that included visits to the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp and meetings with Holocaust survivors, The Washington Post reported Thursday.

The Freedom Party was founded by a former Nazi SS officer and is known for its anti-immigrant views.

...

In the Unzensuriert article, King agrees with his interviewer that the United States is threatened by a “Great Replacement,” which white nationalists say is an attempt to uproot “indigenous” populations in Europe and the United States and replace them with immigrants from Latin America, Africa and the Middle East.

“indigenous” populations in Europe and the United States and replace them with immigrants from Latin America, Africa and the Middle East.

FFS, the idiots don't really know the irony of complaining about a great replacement in the US. The real indigenous people in the US were slaughtered and replaced already by the Europeans.

Don't think I could survive a walk over the Arctic, even assuming it stays frozen until I can get there.

GOPers -- incompetent at governing, incompetent at being Nazis, but not even hiding it any more.
