Episode 35: Supermarket Sweep Style

Hillary and Tina cover the occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge and former US Senator of Massachusetts, Ted Kennedy.

Hillary’s Story
In 2015, Ammon Bundy and Ryan Payne fought against the imprisonment of local Oregan ranchers, Dwight and Steven Hammond. But, when negotiations failed, Bundy and Payne took matters into their own hands and attempted to take over Government Sanctioned land.

Tina’s Story
Ted Kennedy served as US Senator out of Massachusetts beginning in 1962. But, when a local sheriff discovers a submerged vehicle registered to the senator complete with a body inside, Ted Kennedy’s presidential aspirations take a plunge.
