Glass Elephant Nearly Shattered After Sen. Collins Makes Shutdown Negotiators Use 'Talking Stick'

Sen. Susan Collins of Maine hosted a bipartisan group of senators in her office to discuss how to put an end to the government shutdown.

She reportedly made fellow legislators use a ceremonial Native American "talking stick" when they wanted to speak - in order to quell possible disruptions.

Senators could only speak if they were in possession of the "talking stick."

However, things went slightly awry when a top Democrat interrupted a Republican, who then tossed the stick in the liberal's direction in jest, causing damage to one of Collins' decorations.
