Location
Idaho
Idaho erupts into the Oval Office fray as Hoynes hurls it forward—a blood-drenched specter of familial savagery where an ax cleaves through kin in some shadowed ranch house or isolated cabin, splintering bone and domestic illusion under rural skies. This raw invocation pierces gun control's armor, ax murders exploding as visceral riposte to Bartlet's gunfire grimoires, raw horror coiling tension as devil's advocacy stains the air with metallic tang and primal dread.
