It's interesting to me that you left a key line from your source article out, a quote that would have set the context and tone much differently. A quote that is literally the second paragraph. This quote is not found anywhere in your OP. Why?
"
"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. No one ordered additional steps to be taken and there was no departure from the norm in this matter," the FBI told Fox News in a statement Tuesday.
Newsweek thought the "deadly force" wording was newsworthy.
www.newsweek.com...
Several news outlets were surprised by it. Must not be "normal" wording for FBI raids of high-ranking officials.
That is great! Doesnt answer the question I asked an doesn't change the fact that something standard is trying to be made to look as unique to this event.
I've never read a search warrant before. If you say they all use the "deadly force" authorization, I have no choice but to believe you...or at least remain open to your belief.

You want an established standard protocol to be amended for one person?
When that one person is a former president of the United States and the top political rival of the current president of the United States; it is only common sence to treat the situation differently than your standard operation. Why is that so hard for you to understand?

A person who the FBI knew wasn't even on the property!
"Deadly Force" authorized for the FBI when all they were doing was picking up some classified documents from an elderly former presidents home in a Florida resort?
All it would have taken was one left wing FBI guy with an itchy trigger finger and the left wouldn't have the Trump problem anymore.

That is a Red Herring. It means nothing 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This should honestly scare the # out of people, but it still does not. You want to argue he should have given them back. He was not in town. This SOP. BS. This never should have happened.
If a former POTUS was aiming a gun at your head, would you just take that bullet, because they used be president, or would you fire your gun first? Would it depend on whether that former POTUS was Biden or Trump?
FBI agents executing a search warrant at former President Donald Trump’s home in 2022 prepared for the possibility U.S. Secret Service agents resisted the agents, according to newly unsealed court documents.
An operations plan for the raid of Mar-a-Lago in southern Florida stated that should President Trump arrive at Mar-a-Lago during the period when agents were there, FBI agents would be prepared to “engage with” him and U.S. Secret Service (USSS) agents who protect him.
If the Secret Service agents “provide resistance or interfere with FBI timeline or accesses,” then FBI officials would contact certain individuals—their names and positions were redacted—the documents stated.

Why would I let anyone shoot me?

I never said that. However, he is not threat at all and neither would anyone who was associated. Common Sense here Sook.
This was not a drug raid in the ghetto or the burbs. This was not an arrest for felony murder. It was a show.
