Video: Fox45 News featuring Debilyn Molineaux of The Bridge Alliance

As the political landscape becomes even more divisive and splits within parties create deeper tension, trying to have a conversation about ideas and policies with family, friends and coworkers is often just avoided.

Co-publisher of The Fulcrum and co-founder and CEO of the Bridge Alliance Debilyn Molineaux recently joined Fox45 TV for a segment to share that it does not have to be this way. Molineaux explained that it's sad that people can't come to constructive disagreements in bridging divides.

Trump’s Imperial Presidency: Putting Local Democracy at Risk

Trump says his deployment of federal law enforcement is about restoring order in Washington, D.C. But the real message isn’t about crime—it’s about power. By federalizing the District’s police, activating the National Guard, and bulldozing homeless encampments with just a day’s notice, Trump is flexing a new kind of presidential muscle: the authority to override local governments at will—a move that raises serious constitutional concerns.

And now, he promises that D.C. won’t be the last. New York, Chicago, Philadelphia—cities he derides as “crime-ridden”—could be next. Noticeably absent from his list are red-state cities with higher homicide rates, like New Orleans.
