Hunter Walker on the FBI Tracking Border Protest Groups

Hunter Walker, White House Correspondent for Yahoo News, together with Jana Winter, reported that the FBI is monitoring groups on the border that are protesting U.S. immigration policy. All of the evidence cited in an FBI report involved nonviolent protest activity. Nonetheless, FBI agents are claiming that protest groups are "increasingly arming themselves and using lethal force to further their goals.” Activists say that the government is classifying legitimate government opposition and legally protected speech as violent extremism or domestic terrorism. We'll speak with Hunter Walker about this report.
