"Oregon politics has been thrown into chaos for more than a week after
Republican legislators fled the state and took refuge in neighboring
Idaho. As police were ordered to bring them home, rightwing militia
groups vowed to defend them, raising the prospect of violent confrontation."

Via Glyn Moody, who wrote: "this story epitomises #murica's utter
insanity over #climatecrisis and #guns"
