Congressman Scott Perry (R-Pa.), whose personal cell phone was seized by the FBI a day after it raided President Donald Trump’s Florida home, said citizens are right to question if the agency’s actions are politically motivated.

Perry, a Trump ally, was traveling with his family when three FBI agents visited him and took his personal cell phone on Aug. 9, imaging it before giving it back. It raised questions as to why the agency was unnecessarily aggressive by showing up unannounced instead of contacting his attorney.
