Beautiful mountains, gorgeous lakes and waterfalls, epic hikes, mouth-watering craft beer, steamy hot springs.... Idaho's got it all....plus militias! Today, Jody tells us about how Ruby Ridge became the epicenter of a harrowing standoff between the federal government and Randy Weaver, a former Green Beret, and his family. What began as a simple firearms charge escalated into a deadly confrontation, leaving lasting scars on both sides and igniting a fierce debate on government overreach and the rights of individuals. An important piece of the political history of Pacific Northwest that has implications even to this day.
