Let's look at this differently.

What is your reasoning to call this political agenda? Did they break the investigatory process in some way? Is there no precedent to suspect that Donald J. Trump would ever be raided by the FBI? What exactly are you upset about in the way this has gone down?

It absolutely looks that way to me. Unless they are in hot pursuit of Donald Trump on the verge of taking sensitive documents across the border, then an unannounced raid on his personal residence is clearly (at least to me) a breach of the ordinary investigative process. Show me that kind of emergency circumstances - - and it should not be difficult to do so, since they had something that they disclosed to the judge in order to get the warrant issued - - and I'll withdraw my outrage. Short of that, and I will be shocked if we see anything close to it, then you are covering for fascist action by our own gov't against its political opposition.

That's not America. At least it wasn't until the Obama administration.
