Garland Condemns Trump's Dangerous FBI Raid Assassination Claim

TL;DR Summary
U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland refuted former President Donald Trump's claims that the FBI was authorized to shoot him during a 2022 search of his Mar-a-Lago resort, calling the allegations "false" and "extremely dangerous." The FBI's use-of-force policy, made public this week, only permits deadly force if there is an immediate threat. The search was part of an investigation into classified documents Trump retained after leaving office. Trump, who faces multiple criminal prosecutions, has pleaded not guilty and is seeking to suppress the evidence seized.
