Mayor Bowser questions Trump’s legal ability to call troops to DC

Mayor Muriel Bowser said on Thursday that she thinks “there is a legal question” about President Trump’s ability to call out-of-state National Guard into the District of Columbia. Bowser joins Judy Woodruff to discuss how the city has seen protests at the White House swell “ever since peaceful protesters were forcibly moved” and how she sees the federal government encroaching on D.C.’s autonomy.
