David Shulkin: Political appointees pushing VA privatization
David Shulkin, the outgoing secretary of veterans affairs, says political appointees at the department who were installed after the election saw him as a threat to their political philosophy and obstacle to giving veterans unfettered access to private sector services. Shulkin joins Judy Woodruff to discuss why he was forced from his job, the controversy over questionable travel expenses and more.
