MSNBC contributor Paola Ramos shares her reaction to a video posted on the White House’s official social media accounts featuring a handcuffed man being patted down, while the song "Closing Time" by Semisonic plays in the background.

In a statement, Semisonic said it did not authorize and does not condone the White House using their song.
