In reply to the discussion: FBI SEIZES the phone of Rep. Scott Perry (R) Pa. [View all]crickets
(26,168 posts)43. Ha! He's complaining they didn't warn him beforehand.
"This morning, while traveling with my family, 3 FBI agents visited me and seized my cell phone. They made no attempt to contact my lawyer, who would have made arrangements for them to have my phone if that was their wish. Im outraged though not surprised that the FBI under the direction of Merrick Garlands DOJ, would seize the phone of a sitting Member of Congress," Perry said in his statement. "My phone contains info about my legislative and political activities, and personal/private discussions with my wife, family, constituents, and friends. None of this is the governments business."
Of course no one was going to give you enough warning to curate the contents of your phone, silly. 🙄
If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to worry about, etc...

Yep, it's the kind of media delay we'll have to get used to as the FBI makes its moves.
