WBUR | By Here & Now Newsroom

On our Friday politics roundtable, hosts Scott Tong and Peter O’Dowd discuss the latest political developments from the jam-packed week of news, as Washington, D.C., braces for President Trump’s military parade on Saturday, and reverberations continue from U.S. Sen. Alex Padilla being handcuffed during a Homeland Security news conference Thursday.

Chris Megerian from the Associated Press and Sabrina Rodriguez from the Washington Post join the discussion.
