Far-right Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) on Monday joined the long list of Republicans whose attempts to honor Martin Luther King Jr. have gone awry.

“On this day, we remember his incredible legacy and contributions to this great nation,” Boebert added.
Boebert’s tribute didn’t sit well with critics.
