FBI reportedly delivers subpoenas related to 2020 electors to Republican Pennsylvanian lawmakers
Whitehouse Wire ^ | Aug 10, 2022 | Staff

The FBI reportedly delivered subpoenas related to the controversy surrounding alternate electors in the 2020 election to several Republican lawmakers in Pennsylvania on Wednesday.

The action comes after the FBI served a search warrant at the Mar-a-Lago residence of former President Donald Trump in Palm Beach, Florida, prompting his supporters to accuse the Bureau of being politically motivated.

Various sources spoke to Pennlive about the FBI delivering subpoenas or speaking with Pennsylvania Republicans as a part of the investigation into the effort to send alternate electors to the U.S. Capitol to elect Trump rather than President Joe Biden.

Some of the lawmakers who received subpoenas were told they were not themselves the subject of the investigation, the sources told Pennlive.

On Tuesday, Republican Rep. Scott Perry of Pennsylvania said that the FBI had confiscated his cell phone as part of the same investigation.

“They made no attempt to contact my lawyer, who would have made arrangements for them to have my phone if that was their wish. I’m outraged — though not surprised — that the FBI under the direction of Merrick Garland’s DOJ, would seize the phone of a sitting Member of Congress,” Perry said in a statement.

Trump revealed the FBI raid in a scathing statement issued Monday evening and later suggested that the FBI agents were planting evidence. The warrant was served as a part of an investigation into whether Trump illegally destroyed or removed White House documents after leaving office.

Critics of the Biden administration have accused the FBI of being politically motivated in the raid on Trump’s residence. The White House refused to comment on the incident except to say that they were not notified beforehand about the Mar-a-Lago raid.

The GOP needs to get ‘Politically Motivated”. I see very little effort in securing a fair and honest vote in future elections.

None of their eff’n business. Please point me to part of the US Constitution that give the executive branch of the federal government the power to do this. Eff the FBI. These crossdressing panty sniffers need to be unemployed. Shutter the entire FBI

This is all Deep State pressure to minimize turnover in the demon party. It’s pretty clear they will resort to any means necessary to preserve the steal.

The Birth of the Federal Bureau of Investigation

John F. Fox, Jr., FBI Historian

July 2003

Actually a fascinating read. The FBI was born out of the Treasury Dept. Congress was very afraid of the executive branch having its own “secret police force” that could investigate (and pressure, blackmail, intimidate) members of Congress. Finally in 1908 Congress relented and allowed the DOJ to fund the FBI.

The warrant was served as a part of an investigation into whether ***Trump illegally destroyed or removed White House documents*** after leaving office.

Didn’t the FBI say they had an informant in Trumps home and he told them what papers to look for and where they were.

IT TOOK THEM (9) HOURS TO FIND IT.
sounds like a lot of planting went on.

Wow, does anyone read the US Constitution anymore?

Article II Section 1

The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America.

He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice President, chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows:

Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.
