Trump calls for Oakland mayor to be investigated by the DOJ for obstruction of justice

During a televised White House meeting that included the attorney general, President Donald Trump called on the Justice Department to investigate Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf for "obstruction of justice" after she earlier this year.

"That whole operation that took a long time to put together — I mean you talk about obstruction of justice, I would recommend that you look into obstruction of justice for the mayor of Oakland, California," the president said, directing his comments at Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
