Washington • It has been five months since Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, lost his committee assignments over his support for white supremacy, and on Wednesday he took a step toward rehabilitation.
He gave a news conference on the Capitol grounds — with two real, live, actual black people!
Not African Americans, mind you. “You ain’t gotta call me African American 'cause I ain’t never been to Africa,” explained Lynnette Hardaway. “You can call me black.”
Hardaway and her sister, Rochelle Richardson, form the "Diamond and Silk" YouTube sensation, a duo whose outrageous conservative commentary has won them frequent airtime on Fox News and promotion from President Trump.
