Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA) shared speculation on SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Sunday with host Joel Pollak that the FBI’s seizure of his personal mobile phone was a “reprisal” for his move to impeach U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland in 2021.

Perry described the seizing of his phone by the FBI as “an incredible violation” of his constitutional rights and privacy.

“I have an official phone and I have my personal phone,” he stated. “Just to be clear, they seized my personal phone, which unfortunately, and so oftentimes unwittingly, you kind of go back and forth. I talk to my wife and my family almost exclusively on my personal phone. There are texts, emails, photographs of my children playing and growing up, pictures of our pets, and the dog, and all those kind of things on there, but there are also conversations, emails, etcetera, with other legislators and other constituents, and I think that’s a point that needs to be made.”

Perry remarked, “There’s a reason why we have this thing in Congress called the Speech or Debate Clause, which protects members of Congress from the executive branch, because we don’t want them to try and use that to coerce you to vote a certain way or to not vote a certain way.”

He continued, “For instance, when Merrick Garland prevailed upon everyday citizens showing up at at school board meetings to question what their children were being taught, Merrick Garland issued, essentially, threat tags on these people, so I called for the impeachment of Merrick Garland. I actually introduced articles of impeachment on Merrick Garland. So am I now to think that because I did that, this is now a reprisal for that action, and is that a coercive thing?”

The FBI’s seizure of his phone conflicts with constitutional separation of powers between the executive and legislative branches of the federal government, Perry held.

Any outspoken Republican will be on the list.

Pretty damn clear.

The only ones that used Hunter Biden’s name have been indicted, raided, on under Fed Investigation

[MtnClimber]

So, lead the impeachment or level criminal charges. Ram it up their gay holes, hard.

The left is now doing to patriots what McCarthy failed to complete against the communists.

[no-to-illegals]

Dear rep Perry, ask for a Grand Jury investigation please

[thegagline]

If the Republicans ever regain control, I hope they go full scorched earth.

[Enterprise]

Well, Mr. Perry. If that is the case, then what they did should be actionable criminally and civilly under the law for Violation of Civil Rights Under Color of Authority. Your move. Don't back down now. And file the lawsuit with a Federal Court away from Washington D.C.

[Mr. K]

Are they investigating something?

What reason did they give for that? Did they have a search warrant?

[no-to-illegals]

If republicans refuse to go full scorched Earth, the People will know there are as many guilty republicans as there are guilty democrats

[Sarah Barracuda]

Welcome to Communist Russia. I dont want to hear anymore how the left hates Putin, they adore Putin and his techniques

How sad that the political party to which you belong seems to not care at all.

[mountainfolk]

That is a logical conclusion and highly feasible. I do doubt that there are any innocent commie democrats. Their voters vote anti Rep regardless. RINOS gain office by lying about their true affiliation and have prevented the Rep party from doing what needs to be done. Voters must first verify and trust and then verify again. Republican leaders are chosen from the persons elected to serve the American people. They can help or hurt American voters. A reason to be aware of the true political interests of any candidate for office.

Thank you for the compliment

"Any outspoken Republican will be on the list."

”In your face” is our communist masters' favorite tool to rattle the chains of tyranny that they have wrapped around our necks...

No Big Deal!
Our communist masters know that the pathetically servile & indolent Aamerican sheeple will just continue to roll over and spread their collective cheeks...

[no-to-illegals]

Also a Thank You for your pointing out a truth regarding “verification” of all politicians

[Wuli]

Another example of DOJ/FBI biased polticial intimidation under the Communist Biden.

Cowards hide. *cough* Mitch *cough*
