This Fox News chyron is a masterclass in propaganda. They couldn’t have twisted it to be any further from the truth. This type of nonsense should be illegal.

They're trying to get back into the Big Orange Pig's good graces again.

It was probably that shreaking harpy's idea.

So, we have Biden telling the Attorney General, and the Director of the FBI, and a Federal Judge to do his bidding and raid the former president's house.
Sure, that's the way it went down...no doubt they all work for Biden and dance to his tune.

Those dumb shits at FOX are so used to the way Trump did business that they think that's the way all Presidents operate. Hey FOX news, Biden is an actual President, not like the fake POS that came before him.
I seriously doubt Biden was told in advance. That's how an independent Attorney General operates. Besides, if Biden knew then he can be construed as having given permission...Garland wouldn't want that to be the case.

I'm sure he was informed after it happened.

The difference is that TFG thought of the FBI as "his," as well as everyone working at the federal level... That's why there were so many resignations and so few applications.

Because Trump politicized the FBI and the IRS, they assume that every president must. That's not how Biden works. But you can bet your bottom dollar the next Republican president, may it be decades away, well absolutely want to politicize every agency they can.

Shit, they even tried to politicize the post office, something that hasn't happened in 140 years

Because TFG sought to "punish" his political enemies, they assume that every president must be like that. While the truth is that Joe Biden is moving forward with efforts to help the American people, something TFG never even thought of, not once. He used the office only to enrich and help himself.

Their opinions are stupid, but everyone laughing at them should still believe in a free press, even for wrong headed anti-American opinions like at Fox

I just was told on a Facebook site that Biden just started the Civil War.

Those folks are dangerous.
