Meet Freedom Caucus clown and January 6 insurrectionist Scott Perry, a Pennsylvania embarrassment


HeadlineBusiness Insider, 4/26/2022
"From an Intel friend: [the Director of National Intelligence] needs to task [the National Security Agency] to immediately seize and begin looking for international comms related to Dominion," Perry texted Meadows on November 12, five days after major news networks called the the 2020 election for President-elect Joe Biden.  
A source told CNN that Meadows did not follow through on that request. That same day, Perry also reportedly told Meadows that foreign powers, including the British government, were involved in manipulating US elections, and that CIA Director Gina Haspel was part of a cover-up.
Perry's text, of course, is complete and utter.....

USA Today, 12/21/2021
In a Monday letter, the committee said it wanted to interview Perry about evidence that he advocated the late appointment of an acting attorney general who would presumably investigate false claims of voter fraud in states that Trump lost to President Joe Biden. 
The apparent goal: Reverse certification of Biden's wins in those states, or prevent the counting of their electoral votes, enabling Trump to somehow prevail in the Electoral College.

It was Mr. Perry, a member of the hard-line Freedom Caucus, who first made Mr. Trump aware that a relatively obscure Justice Department official, Jeffrey Clark, the acting chief of the civil division, was sympathetic to Mr. Trump’s view that the election had been stolen, according to former administration officials who spoke with Mr. Clark and Mr. Trump. 
Mr. Perry introduced the president to Mr. Clark, whose openness to conspiracy theories about election fraud presented Mr. Trump with a welcome change from the acting attorney general, Jeffrey A. Rosen, who stood by the results of the election and had repeatedly resisted the president’s efforts to undo them. 
Mr. Perry’s previously unreported role, and the quiet discussions between Mr. Trump and Mr. Clark that followed, underlined how much the former president was willing to use the government to subvert the election, turning to more junior and relatively unknown figures for help as ranking Republicans and cabinet members rebuffed him.  [emphasis added]
Consulting with the decomposers, in other words.
