Rep. Steve King questions whether human populations would exist if not for rapes and incest that happened in families throughout history.
The three highest-ranking Republican leaders in the House took Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, to task after he questioned Wednesday whether humanity would exist if not for the rapes and incest that happened throughout history.
"What if we went back through all the family trees and just pulled those people out that were products of rape and incest?" he said at a speech in Urbandale, Iowa."Would there be any population of the world left if we did that? Considering all the wars and all the rape and pillage that has taken place? And whatever happened to culture after society, I know that I can't certify that that I am not a part of the product of that.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., told Fox News that he had"a great deal of problems" with King's remarks and noted that"this isn’t the first time I’ve had concerns of what Steve King has said." House Republican leaders stripped King of his committee assignments in January after he defended white nationalism and white supremacy
