Rep. Dan Goldman: Republicans are rolling over democracy and allowing Trump to act as a 'fascist dictator'

After being denied entry to a Brooklyn facility, Rep. Dan Goldman (D-N.Y.) sends a direct message to border czar Tom Homan from The Weeknight table about detention center access. He also weighs in on Trump’s power play in Washington, D.C., as the president deploys National Guard and pledges a crime crackdown.
