Fox News




quote:

Sanders isn't the only MSNBC personality to take exception to the term. As the news broke Monday, anchor Alicia Menendez asked former FBI agent Frank Figliuzzi how the FBI was able to "pull off this raid." Figliuzzi, a national security contributor at MSNBC, objected to her terminology during his answer.

"Agents don’t like the word ‘raid,’ they don’t like it. It sounds like it’s some sort of extrajudicial, non-legal thing. It’s an execution of a search warrant. It’s a court-authorized search warrant," he said.

Many print outlets used the term "raid" independently of Trump, including the New York Times, Washington Post, Associated Press, Reuters, CNBC, Politico and others.

Their public opinion polls regarding the raid must be terrible.

I've done a lot of raids during my deployment in Iraq. what occured in Trump's Mar a lago residence was a raid. not all raids we did in Iraq involved blowing a door down. sometimes it was a simple knock on the door using a local interpreter and conducting SSI on site. collecting items on an approved search warrant. funny thing is in Iraq we usually had the homeowner present to note down what we took. US Army Infantry procedures are more lawful than the actions of our rogue federal agencies.

At least she's smart enough to identify that a raid is bad optics.

Arguing with definitions of clearly established words all part of the obfuscation playbook. We should learn to ignore this type of bullshite.

Leftists love nothing more that telling everyone what they can’t say.

The last thing I am concerned about is hurting the feelings of some FBI agents.
