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.

Sadly, it usually works thanks to a complicit media.

If the media was loyal to their country and the Constitution, they would be screaming at the government to justify what they did and why they did it instead of debating whether it was a raid or not.

The media is more loyal to their party than to the country.

Everyone called it a raid and they were proud to do so. They thought they were sending a statement about him being guilty of something.

Libs thought it was was great. People laughing all over social media. Then they realized what this really meant.

Yes and the response was very bad, so they are walking that back to make it much less emotional and more rational-sounding.

Goodness, just think how pathetic the democratic party would be without their media army.

Another example of why it’s known as SeeBS News.

The FBI search of Trump's home in Mar-a-Lago isn't a 'raid'

Changing the words also let’s us know they didn’t find anything.

They need to leave the word raid behind because the fishing expedition caught no fish.

A lot of definitions have been recently changed.

Media outlets that initially used the word “raid.”

The Hill
Business Insider
ABC
CNBC
Newsweek
Slate

Then I got bored.

Whether something constitutes a “raid” or simple execution of a warrant is subject to interpretation. I will not take issue with anyone who wants to apply that term here, but I tend to associate it with fast-roping down from choppers, throwing flash-bangs through windows and sledgehammering doors open.

Personally, I think that some folks are letting their substantive opposition to the warrant itself (which is understandable) color their description of the manner in which it was executed (which is emotional).

Not really. Neither term fits the facts very well.

I would love to see a raid and seizure of money records/assets of Biden and his Family, Pelosi and Obama. Throw in McConnell, Bush and Dick Cheney just to make things bi-partisan.

IMO, I think that any MSM mechanism with such power to essentially propagandize the people should be forced by Law to have an equal representation from their opposition. Said Opposition to be the Opposition's choice. I know that is the opposite of what even Rush Limbaugh believed, but given the dynamics of today, and what is at stake, that would be a prudent action.

Let Islam and Marxism state their case, and Constitutional Principal opposition theirs as well. Uncensored and fully inclusive information and debate. Like the Poliboard.

I said yesterday that they would start walking this back and claim that this was a routine procedure.

I think they wanted Trump supporters to riot, so they could highlight the violence and further label them as extremists.
