It's early in the new year, but murders in Chicago are way up over the very bloody year of 2016. The Factor explored the carnage with attorney Horace Cooper. "There has been a wholesale failure," Cooper complained, "on the part of the state and local community to address this serious problem. The feds can absolutely go in and do something about it, it's within the federal government's statutory authority. The Attorney General can direct the U.S. Attorney in Chicago to have the FBI and local law enforcement work together and prosecute cases. This doesn't require a change in law, it simply requires the will!" The Factor added, "President Trump can call in the National Guard because the governor won't."
