Top Republican leader vows action against King over white supremacist remarks

The Iowa congressman under-fire for bemoaning the fact that terms like ‘white nationalist and ‘white supremacist’ had become offensive

WASHINGTON (AP) — The House Republican leader said Sunday he will meet with Rep. Steve King this week to discuss King’s future and role in the party and promised action following the Iowa congressman’s recent comments in defense of white supremacy.

“That language has no place in America. That is not the America I know and it’s most definitely not the party of Lincoln,” said House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif. “Action will be taken. I’m having a serious conversation with congressman Steve King.”

King was quoted in The New York Times last week as saying, “White nationalist, white supremacist, Western civilization — how did that language become offensive?” King has insisted he is an advocate for “Western civilization,” not white supremacy or white nationalism.

He said it was a “mistake” to use phrasing that “created an unnecessary controversy” and denied being racist.

McCarthy, who appeared on CBS’ “Face the Nation,” told host Margaret Brennan after the cameras were turned off that he is reviewing whether King, now serving his ninth term, should keep his committee assignments, according to CBS’ transcript of the broadcast.

King serves on the Agriculture, Small Business and Judiciary committees, and chairs Judiciary’s subcommittee on the Constitution and Civil Justice.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said “we’ll be acting on that” when she was asked about King last week. She did not elaborate.

King’s comments ignited a firestorm, drawing condemnation from the top three House Republican leaders. GOP Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina, who is African-American, aired his disapproval in a newspaper opinion column.

“What Steve King said was stupid. It was stupid, it was hurtful, it was wrong and he needs to stop it,” Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, said Sunday.

King was a co-chair of Cruz’s 2016 presidential campaign. Asked if he could support King in the future, Cruz said: “What I’m going to do is urge everyone to stand for principles that matter.”

Cruz appeared on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

Sure this was missed. From the 10th. Telling y'all, AI is the future. Now they're putting it in charge of weapons with the exception of a 'human interface before deadly force'. Sooner or later AI will override that. What could possibly go wrong? kek.

Army Looking at AI-Controlled Weapons to Counter Enemy Fire

The head of U.S. Army acquisitions said Thursday that allowing artificial intelligence to control some weapons systems may be the only way to defeat enemy weapons.

U.S. military has embraced AI, arguing that America cannot compete against potential adversaries such as Russia and China without the futuristic technology.

Concern over placing machines in charge of deadly weapons has prompted military officials to adopt a conservative approach to AI, one that involves a human in the decision-making process for the use of deadly force.

But Bruce Jette, assistant secretary of the Army for Acquisitions, Logistics and Technology (ASAALT), said it may not be wise to put too many restrictions on AI teamed with weapons systems.

"People worry about whether an AI system is controlling the weapon, and there are some constraints on what we are allowed to do with AI," he said at a Jan. 10 Defense Writers Group breakfast in Washington, D.C.

There are a number of public organizations that have gotten together and said, "We don't want to have AI tied to weapons,"Jette explained.

The problem with this policy is that it may hinder the Army's ability to use AI to increase reaction time in weapon systems, he said.

Exactly, Programs get all that fucking funding and we know damn well the troops don't get the badass futurisitic gear they've been doing R&D on. Maybe a couple SF units, berets, delta get that gear but the rest don't.

Dark money. $6.4 T missing from pentagon.

We've been getting taxed out the ass on everything yet still continually going in debt, amazing how that works.

No Rep on where it gets spent…cock suckers need to keep their hand out of my pocket and let me keep what I earn.

Yep.

POTUS was groomed all his life to take down the illuminati. He had to rub elbows with some shady characters to get the juice on what's going down.

Now, he's fucking them all up with the American people behind him.
