Conservative Americans were outraged on Tuesday when news broke that the FBI had conducted a search at former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence with the use of ‘deadly force’ if necessary.
However, according to the FBI, this was all part of their standard protocol, which includes a policy statement limiting the use of deadly force.
In response to a misleading post by Trump on his Truth Social account, the FBI clarified that their search was in line with their usual procedures and that no additional steps were taken.
“The FBI followed standard protocol in this search as we do for all search warrants, which includes a standard policy statement limiting the use of deadly force,” the FBI said in the Tuesday statement, according to multiple reports.
Biden is nuts. Lethal force? These people are sick. What if that was authorized on Obama? Or better yet, Clinton? Bush? pic.twitter.com/kBwkt4xUBx

However, Trump’s allies, such as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, falsely claimed that the FBI was planning to assassinate Trump and had been given the green light by the Department of Justice.
This is just another example of the lengths that the left will go to in order to discredit our great former president. Trump, who has pleaded not guilty to charges related to the investigation into his handling of classified documents, was simply being targeted once again by the biased and corrupt FBI.
OMG. The FBI agents who raided Mar-a-Lago with LETHAL FORCE authorization were instructed to wear unmarked polo shirts and to keep their law enforcement equipment concealed

Court documents unsealed on Tuesday shed more light on the FBI’s search and revealed that it was authorized under Justice Department policy to use deadly force if necessary. But as former FBI assistant director Frank Figliuzzi noted, this is standard protocol for all operations, even for a search warrant.
MORE bombshells from unsealed filings in classified documents case.

During a congressional hearing last year, former FBI assistant director Steve D’Antuono testified that the FBI had coordinated with the Secret Service to ensure a smooth and peaceful search at Mar-a-Lago. But this didn’t stop the liberal media from spreading false rumors about a dramatic and aggressive raid that never actually took place.
The biased mainstream media and Democrats will do anything to undermine our great republic and our conservative values. But as patriotic Americans, we stand with President Trump and trust that the truth will prevail. This is just another example of how the left will stop at nothing to vilify and discredit our beloved former president. We must continue to fight against these baseless attacks and support Trump as he continues to fight for the American people.
The DOJs Merrick Garland, and his cohort Biden, pushed the raid on Mar-a-Lago, and now we learn they authorized the FBI to use LETHAL FORCE!
