Representative Scott Perry, a Republican from Pennsylvania, says the Department of Justice should not get more funding. His phone was recently seized by the FBI.

PERRY: “I would just ask my colleagues, how many more times do we need to see it, the abuse of power by the Department of Justice. I'm sure, just like I do, you travel to your district, you talk to people that agree with you, some don't agree with you. You know what not one person has said to me, agree or disagree, not one person has said to me, you know what we need Perry, we need more money for the Department of Justice. Not one. I don't know why that is, but maybe it's because of the abuse of power. Now I appreciate my colleagues that want to do something with Big Tech. I sure want to do something too. And you know what in about three months, the folks that are destroying this country are not going to be in charge around here and then we can do something meaningful. We don't have to take the bad to get a couple good things. We can just do the good things and leave the bad things out.”
