Seems our pals in the FBI and on the Left don’t want us to call the FBI’s raid on Trump’s home a raid because apparently calling a raid a raid sets bad optics since a raid is not a good thing and we’re helping Trump ‘frame the messaging.’
Because you know, how dare we call a raid a raid when it’s evil Trump who was raided.
We’d ask what the Hell is wrong with these people but we’re pretty sure we don’t want to know.
This blue-check wrote an entire thread on it.People have to stop calling it a "raid."

It was a lawful search pursuant to a warrant.
Don't let Trump and pals frame the messaging.
Heh.
Search.Someone said the alternative to "raid" also needs to be short and snappy.

I think the phrase needs to suggest due process of law to counter the right-wing narrative that Trump's home was "under siege" and "occupied."
Okaaaay. Fiiiine. I'll go with "search."
Right.
