Steven James Deace (born July 28, 1973) is an American conservative political activist and talk show host.[2][3][4][5] His show The Steve Deace Show is on the Blaze Media platform.
Early life[edit]
Born on July 28, 1973, Deace is the son of Vickie McNeeley. McNeeley, who was 14 years old and not married at the time, brought the pregnancy to full term after deciding not to have an abortion. She went on to raise him and three other children as a single mother in the Grand Rapids, Michigan area.[3] McNeely later married when Deace was three years old. Although he was not formally adopted, Deace bears his stepfather's surname. Deace was abused by his stepfather throughout his childhood. He attended Michigan State University in the early 1990s, but later dropped out of school.[3]
Career[edit]
Deace's first job was as a sports reporter for The Des Moines Register. He then hosted a sports talk show KXNO (AM), and later an evening drive talk show on WHO (AM).[3] Since 2010, Deace has been backed Christian conservative businessmen in Iowa when Deace helped the successful campaign to defeat three members of the Iowa Supreme Court who approved same-sex marriage.[3] During Obama's presidency, Deace was criticized for hosting birther conspiracy theorists on his show.[6]
Deace now hosts The Steve Deace Show on Blaze TV. The show was formerly on CRTV until it merged with The Blaze. He previously co-hosted We Talk Sports on Blaze TV with former professional baseball player Curt Schilling.
Deace was a senior campaign operative in Iowa for Ted Cruz's presidential campaign in 2016. After Cruz dropped out of the race in May 2016, he posted a voter registration form with a check mark next to 'no party' in response to calls for Republican unity behind Donald Trump and his presidential campaign.[7] When Ted Cruz endorsed Trump in September 2016, Deace said it was 'the worst political miscalculation of my lifetime.'[8][9] In 2017, he defended Steve Bannon's role in the White House, arguing that it would be a mistake for Trump to fire Bannon because of the signal it would send to conservatives.[10]
Personal life[edit]
He and his wife, Amy, have three children. Deace is a Christian, converting in 2003 after attending a Promise Keepers rally.[3]
