Oh, my sweet summer child.
This week, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) forced a vote in the House on censuring Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) on accusations of being antisemitic.

But her censure resolution was so over the top — it accused Tlaib of “leading an insurrection” — that 23 Republicans joined all Democrats in tabling it.
