What senators asked in their 1st day of impeachment trial questioning

In President Trump’s impeachment trial, it’s time for senators, effectively acting as jurors, to determine the agenda. On Wednesday, they largely targeted their questions to the trial representatives from their own parties. Amna Nawaz reports, and Lisa Desjardins and Yamiche Alcindor join Judy Woodruff to discuss the subject matter on which senators focused and the latest on calling witnesses.
