16:04Now PlayingBlaze News senior politics editor Christopher Bedford joins "The Mandate" with two decades of living in Washington, D.C., to explain why President Trump’s federal intervention in the city is long overdue. From the crack epidemic and the collapse of family structure to the rise and fall of serious policing, Bedford traces how decades of progressive policies, activist-driven decriminalization, and COVID-era school closures gave rise to a new generation of violent youth offenders. He recounts chilling stories of murders, carjackings, and businesses destroyed by lawlessness and explains how political leaders and prosecutors tied police hands while protecting criminals.
