n. Also known as a chokeslam. The act of lifting someone (such as a reporter who asks a question you don't want to answer) by the neck and then slamming him to the ground. Named for Republican Montana Congressman Greg Gianforte, who, during his campaign, employed such a maneuver on a reporter from the Guardian who asked him about health care, a very touchy subject.
