Sen. Adam Schiff & Dick Durbin Blast Trump for Use of the Insurrection Act

Published | Video Starts at 06:24

It should only apply to cases of demonstrable insurrection or rebellion against the United States and where all other means of protecting Americans and enforcing our laws simply do not exist. Now, let's look at the plain facts of the matter. There is no rebellion or insurrection. Not in Los Angeles, not in Portland, not in Chicago, not in San Francisco, not in Washington, D.C. not in. Nowhere to be found. So what's really going on here? Well, I think the President admitted it very plainly when he spoke to generals and admirals last month at the Pentagon when he spoke of an invasion from within. (06:24–06:37)
