India, June 9 -- Democrat Rep. Maxine Waters arrived at the Federal Bureau of Prisons in Los Angeles, on Sunday. When she attempted to enter the building, an officer slammed the door in the face.

A video of the incident has since gone viral on social media. In the clip, Waters can be heard saying she was there to "check on" SEIU President David Huerta, citing her "congressional authority" to do so.

In another clip, she is seen questioning a National Guard member: "Where is someone that's in charge.an elected official has arrived to go in to check out what's going on. Who can I speak to?"

Waters later spoke to the media outside the building, claiming that President Donald Trump was attempting to implement martial law.
