Right-wing "christian leaders" go all out defending Steve King...

You see, King tried to get that stupid "heartbeat bill" through the House.
So that excuses all the racist shit he keeps saying.

Religious Right Leaders Defend Steve King’s Honor, Demand Apology from House GOP Leader McCarthy

Religious Right leaders and right-wing activists are rallying in support of embattled Rep. Steve King, who has been under fire since a New York Times story quoted him wondering when terms like “white nationalist,” “white supremacist,” and “Western civilization” became offensive. His comment served to highlight his long history of unabashed racism and has resulted in King being stripped of his committee assignments, as well as a wave of calls for his resignation.

Amid this controversy, Religious Right leaders are voicing their support for King, thanks to an effort organized by radical right-wing activist Janet Porter. King is a close ally of Porter’s and even introduced a federal version of her “Heartbeat Bill” in Congress in 2017 that aimed to outlaw abortion, in Porter’s words, “before the mother even knows she’s pregnant.”

Porter is currently gathering signatures for a letter in support of King that will be sent to House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, urging him to issue an apology to King and reinstate his committee assignments. King and right-wing activist Ed Martin, one of the signers, slammed McCarthy earlier this week for not defending King.

Among those who have already added their names to this letter of support are James Dobson, Tom DeLay, Rick Scarborough, Matt Barber, Sandy Rios, Stephen Strang, Frank Gaffney, Lance Wallnau, Jim Garlow, Brian Camenker, Larry Pratt, Scott Lively, Peter LaBarbera, Gordon Klingenschmitt, and dozens more:
