The day after the FBI raid on President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, the FBI seized the cellphone of Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA) while he was traveling with his family, dropping a warrant on him.
Fox News Brian Kilmeade was provided additional information by Perry.
Rep. Scott Perry explains how his phone was taken by the FBI:

“While that story blew up, I heard from my attorneys, who talked directly to the Department of Justice, who said that I, their client, am not a target of this investigation,” Perry told Kilmeade. “If they would have just contacted my attorney, certainly, we would have provided the information necessary, as required by law. That would’ve been it. However, they still want to see this spectacle. They are looking forward to this spectacle. They want the intimidation.”
Exactly. If he’s not the target why did they go to this length? It’s the same thing that we saw with the raid on Trump. As Trump said, “All they had to do was ask.” But instead, they came in with an overbroad warrant as I wrote last night, on a fishing expedition for anything created during his presidency, ripping through his home, even going into Melania’s closet.
Perry said that Perry was also saying to Newsmax that it was the Executive branch infringing on the Legislative branch. “The Executive Branch is not allowed to coerce and intimidate the Legislative Branch when it disagrees with their votes or their opinions,” he said.
.@RepScottPerry“I am a member the Legislative Branch.”
The Executive Branch cannot coerce or intimidate the Legislative Branch if it doesn’t agree with its votes and opinions.
They are close to breaking that record in a spectacular way. pic.twitter.com/gvKEBOZtTx

Perry could have said something different based on evidence. The FBI also dropped subpoenas to other Pennsylvania lawmakers. It is rumored that Perry was referring to an attempt at creating an alternative slate.
One, he’s not a target yet, but still could be, depending on what evidence they try to pull out of the hat.
The other is that putting together all the facts — the seizure of his phone, the subpoenas on the other lawmakers, and perhaps even the raid on Trump’s home — and that this is about trying to hook up Trump and/or some higher Trump people over the alternate slate of electors question and/or other January 6 stuff. As I pointed out, the alternate slate of electors is a very dubious topic. There are precedents for it in history.
But one would have to be sleeping under a rock if one didn’t think that they might be looking for anything they could find during the raid on Trump that might help the Jan. 6 persecution effort.
The FBI does not have any comment on Perry.
“I think that they’re scared to death that President Donald Trump is going to come back in 2024 and win reelection,” Perry said. “And they’re going to do every single thing that they can to make sure that doesn’t happen, including make up some kind of charges from the National Archives.”
That’s about the size of it.
