Fine. Then call it the "description of the factual content and predicate" for
my position as well.

Indeed they have. They took us from "A" (moral, kind, benevolent America) to "B" (who sometimes engages in "aggressive interrogation") to "Z" (who is like Nazi Germany) in one breath. Then they pat each other on the back for how sensitive they are to the decline of Western Civilization.
It's a violation of common sense in every form of the word.
