Leave it to a Los Angeles politician to deliver an Oscar-worthy performance of political theater. Last week, California’s senior U.S. Senator Alex Padilla crashed a press conference held by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem where he caused a scene and became a mini martyr in the process.

California Democratic Sen. Alex Padilla joins MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell to condemn what he calls President Trump's "unprecedented militarization" of Los Angeles. Sen. Padilla along with the entire Senate Democratic Caucus are demanding the immediate withdrawal of all military forces from Los Angeles amid ongoing protests against the Trump administration's immigration policies.
