"Raise the devil with (someone or something)" = Khơi sự tức giận, sự khủng khiếp hoặc phàn nàn với ai/việc gì.

Ví dụ
Stars of the show watched the recent controversy (sự tranh cãi) surrounding BBC presenter Naga Munchetty unfold, after raising the devil with her was partially upheld (chống đỡ, xác nhận, chứng thực một phần).

The Walkden actress and her professional partner Johannes Radebe danced the Cha Cha Cha to the Steps song Scared Of The Dark as part of Halloween week. But some fans have raised the devil with the song choice and felt it let her down last night.

Anyone speaking against any aspect (khía cạnh, vấn đề) of climate change (biến đổi khí hậu) gets accused of being in the pocket of Big Oil, so if she gets to raise the devil with the planet, she needs to be more transparent (minh bạch, rõ ràng) than a mere Facebook posting.
