With one hand...
You know what's the biggest obstacle in my job?
It's not the perps, it's the bureaucracy. How am I supposed to fight crime
with one hand tied behind my back? Usually the expression means easily?
But that's not the case here, is it? It means when they get in his way, right?

The meaning of "easy" comes from the same sense: "I can do that with one hand tied behind my back." Although the task has been rendered more difficult, it's still easily accomplished even with only one hand.
