Fox News Publishes Piece Insisting FBI Trump Raid Was ‘Justified’

Fox News published an article asserting that the FBI raid on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate was “justified,” another suggestion that the network has gone cold on his 2024 candidacy.

Despite the fact that the raid was led by the same FBI unit responsible for the Russiagate witch hunt and signed off on by a judge connected to Jeffrey Epstein, national security attorney Bradley P. Moss insisted it was fair.

“The government gathered evidence that the Trump lawyer was not being truthful, and on August 8, 2022, a court-authorized search warrant was executed that, sure enough, located several more classified documents,” wrote Moss.

“That is not an abuse of law enforcement processes. That is how the law works.”

The attorney insisted that the raid was not politically motivated or an act of persecution, a bold claim given how Trump has been treated by the deep state since he left office.

The op-ed is another sign that Fox News may be going cold on Trump’s 2024 candidacy.

As we previously highlighted, many Trump supporters believe that the network has essentially abandoned Donald Trump in favor of their preferred candidate, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.

A report by the New York Times noted that as of the end of July, Trump hadn’t appeared on Fox News in over 100 days.

Trump also complained that his old friend and Fox News host Sean Hannity “doesn’t seem to be paying him much attention anymore.”

A decision has reportedly been made at “the highest levels” of Fox’s parent company and by the Murdoch family to shun Trump entirely, Newsmax reported.

A recent poll suggests that Republicans are becoming increasingly split over whether they think Trump or DeSantis is the right horse to back in 2024.
