Seth Meyers takes a closer look at the more bizarre aspects of the Oregon standoff
If you're having trouble keeping up with the armed occupation of a wildlife refuge in Oregon, allow Seth Meyers to explain the situation. On Wednesday's Late Night, Meyers took a closer look at the standoff and the other issues that go along with it. He also zeroed in on one of the strangest scenes to come out of Oregon — MSNBC interviewing an armed participant while he sat wrapped up in a blue tarp. "That's right," Meyers said. "There's a dude under a tarp, sitting in a rocking chair, holding a rifle. That sounds like a guess in a game of Militia Clue." Watch the video below. Catherine Garcia
