Since Scott Perry Has Immunity From Prosecution

Pennsylvania Democrats and even a few Magats are working hard to defeat Scott Perry in the upcoming election.

Perry's phone was seized 2 years ago but the FBI can't access it because Perry is protected by the speech and debate clause of Congress. Perry is the chairman of the Freedumb caucus and instead of the FBI investigating Perry, Perry investigated the FBI.

Democrats have put forth 2 strong candidates to oust the man who was at the top of the fake elector food chain.

We can do this Pennsylvania.

He used to be my rep I detest that Qloon fuck.
I think he is under investigation by special counsel.

tho they’ve worked their way up from the bottom so far, it now makes sense to take out the top of the pyramid. cuz if he falls, everybody falls.

has somehow survived formidable challengers, including George Scott. His district includes some of the most backward-thinking rubes in all of Pennsylvania. He is helped by the fact that journalism is stone-cold dead in south-central PA.

Best way to hit him is to move him into the minority by picking up 5 of the more vulnerable Republican seats. Targeting Perry because you don't like him is an emotional reaction which I never apply to political choices.

Then again, being investigated for one's role in an insurrection is a plus among many R's. Go figure.

Given the revelations since 2020 and what's to come, it's hard to say precisely how all this will eventually play out, even in likely R districts.

Criminal indictments and Perry's potential involvement are another thing. Normally I'd say, unless there's video of him dining on aborted fetuses and worshiping Satan, he'll at least eek out a win. But I get the feeling that the picture is kind of muddled right now, given what we don't know. So past performance may not be indicative of future returns. Then again, maybe that's me overthinking and putting a happy face on it.
