I saw where Joe Murgia asked you on "X"...Question for @MattLaslo
…
After hanging with
@LueElizondo
for a little bit, has your opinion on the reality of the phenomenon changed at all? I’m going to assume you were agnostic going in. And crash retrievals of non-human craft and bodies? What do you think?
Please share your response. Thanks.

Seriously, you got a scoop or an area we should press lawmakers on? No one will ever know we even know you (unless you wanna pose for a pic...!).
Going to my grave with so many secrets (and random tidbits...haha)

As chair of the National Security subcommittee Grothman would need to be the one to initiate a hearing, correct?
Naw. Intel could (TURNER!!!), etc.
But Grothman seems to have Comer's trust on the issue, so he seems to be prepared to chair the next public ufo hearing too.
May be more useful to ask Grothman specifically if he has spoken to Admiral G. Also specifically let him and Garcia know Admiral G. purported knows people he indeed believes are working on UAP crash retrieval, Admiral G’s curiosity about certain underwater features which NOAA is aware of that warrant additional investigation and that he is aware of data sets and whistleblowers who have detected anomalous undersea phenomena. Garcia may be a better person to go to if Grothman is getting cold feet or if Luna is chilling on the topic because she wants to be Trump’s VP or in his cabinet.
True, but Burchett and Luna don’t sit on the Intel committee.
I doubt Intel would grant a hearing! Ha!
Send us follow-up questions here!
To the entire UAP caucus, when do you plan for your next hearing to happen? (I hope this summer) Will David Grusch be in attendance? Have any arrangements been made for Mr. Grusch to become an aide, this would be invaluable for the investigation. Have you gotten much information/ evidence for the next hearing? Do you think the next hearing will help you get a full sub-committee?
Ask any member of the UAP caucus if they have the power to subpoena witnesses at the next UAP public gearing. If affirmative, suggest they subpoena Sean Kirkpatrick and then solicit your subscribers for questions.
