Rep. Steve King of Iowa gets a statue in his honor

Comedians mock ‘Confederate sympathizer' Steve King with tiny statue

The Good Liars duo on monument placed in Iowa statehouse: ‘King’s racism is part of our heritage and we need to respect that’

They’re calling it a tiny statue for a tiny man. Given Iowa congressman Steve King’s pitiful history of racist and xenophobic comments, it may not be small enough.

The statue, placed in front of the Iowa statehouse in Des Moines, is the work of the comedy duo Davram Stiefler and Jason Selvig, known as The Good Liars.

“This site is dedicated to Confederate sympathizer and White Nationalist, Steve King,” reads the plaque underneath the statue, which is indeed especially small. “Here, King is honored with the world’s smallest Confederate statue.”

6. So sad. Iowa boys fought and died bravely for the Union in The Civil War. More than most states.

Southerners did not want to face Iowa regiments.

They held at Shiloh allowing Grant to win the battle on the second day.

If there is an afterlife, which I doubt, Congressman King had best avoid the Iowa boys who died fighting against confederate traitors(my ancestors included). I’m afraid he would get a hot welcome from them for idolizing the confederates and having their battle flag in his office.
