Fox News was broadcasting immediately as the FBI conducted a raid on the office of Virginia state Sen. Louise Lucas, a Democrat, and progressive foe of President Donald Trump.

Trump has spent the past several months using his Justice Department to target his political enemies after his former attorney general failed to secure indictments of them.

Lucas has been a thorn in the digital side of Trump for the past few years, relentlessly trolling him and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) on X.

There is currently no information on how the FBI obtained a warrant to raid Lucas' office, however, WJLA News cited sources saying it might be related to a corruption probe. The warrants were approved by a federal judge.

Bulwark reporter Sam Stein questioned how Fox News happened to be on hand just as the FBI acted.

"I will say. Some pretty remarkable instincts by Fox News to have its London correspondent placed in Portsmouth, Virginia right in time for the FBI raid of Louise Lucas," wrote Stein.

According to Fox's reporting, it wasn't merely Lucas, there were many people taken into custody during the raid "as agents move through the area."

WJLA News reported that federal agents are also serving a warrant at a cannabis dispensary nearby.

Former FBI Director James Comey was indicted about a year after he posted a photo of shells on the beach spelling out 8647.

"She told Fox News that she had no idea what the FBI agents were doing at her office," the Fox report said.
