Interesting posit.
UNLIKE the scene at every single Democrat/Wokester forum, *actual* diversity of thought & opinion (and debate) is not only allowed, but encouraged from "our posters" here at TD.
With respect to your claim of hyper-partisanship, actual "robust" political criticisms of both the GOP and Donald Trump from "our" supporters is often seen here.
Btw, in support of YAT and to be fair, he has indeed challenged consensus on occasion; At LEAST as often as when *you* carefully tip-toe within a couple of feet from the typical Dem-reservation position.

Then why are you in this thread? You come into every thread arguing nuances for no other reason that to disrupt a conversation. It is almost as if you are someone pretending you are one thing but really another. Just so you can obfuscate.

That's the literal definition of the word "troll"...

Hank is moderately concerned over this development

You are the only one trying to describe it as a “semantics situation”.
Not only that, but you are validating the partisan position.

How long until ‘a group of 1,000 raid experts have written a letter detailing how this was not a raid’?

To quibble with those who use the term “raid.”

Certainly wasn't what I was picturing when I first saw it reported. I pictured doorkickers going in, putting people on their faces, and shooting the dogs. I figured there had to be some bad shite going down for that to happen.
Turns out, that's not what happened. But it's almost like that's what they wanted everyone to think and when that wasn't the reaction they got, they started in on "it wasn't a raid."

Typical leftist practice.
Focus not on behavior or facts, but on the language that characterizes them. If you change the language, you "change" the facts.
Anyone ever casting another vote for these domestic terrorists are absolutely NO AMERICANS.

It isn’t a semantics game.
They shifted their word usage the minute they noted that the reaction wasn’t what they wanted.
You know it was about optics. I know it.
Hell, Hank knows it. He is just so full of himself that he has to cling to this completely moronic notion of “semantics”.

I don't do criminal work, but I admit that I am surprised that the LEOs forced everyone to leave the premises while conducting their search. I would not think that would be allowed, but perhaps BarryB can give us more info on that point, since he was formerly an assistant US attorney.
Were the FBI agents armed? I am sure that they were. In any case, the photos that I have seen show Trump's SS detachment displaying their weapons as well.

Is this like when a person identifies a certain way but you know even without a biologist degree you know they are either a man or a woman?
In this case the media are the expert biologists...
They know a raid when they see one ....oh wait
