Ask a Pol asks:
Are you and other GOP leaders* having any conversations about these 11 “missing” scientists?
Key Grothman:
“Oh, that’s a good question to ask. I talked to Mr. [Oversight Committee Chair James] Comer about it, and we’re going to do things,” Rep. Glenn Grothman exclusively tells Ask a Pol UAP. “He’s very, very conscious of it, so that’s something we gotta do.”
*Subcommittee chairs like Grothman are a part of the leadership structure for both parties on Capitol Hill.
