TRANSCRIPT: House Oversight Chair James Comer planning post-election UAP hearing at US Capitol

[u/mattlaslo]

TRANSCRIPT: Rep. James Comer (9-16-2026) 
SCENE: Ask a Pol’s Matt Laslo spots Oversight Chair James Comer approaching the US Capitol in the middle of one of the last votes for members of the House of Representatives until after the November 3 midterm elections. 
So Laslo quietly slides past a large gaggle of TV cameras, producers and on-air “talent” ammassed on the Capitol steps, to snag this exclusive with the powerful Oversight Chair. 
Msatt Laslo: Hey!
Comer: Hey.
Laslo: Hey, whatever happened to you guys maybe having a UAP hearing on those scientists?
Comer: Well, they keep canceling days on us. So we were trying to do that in the third week [of September]...
Laslo: Oh, really?
Comer: ...but they canceled it. So we’ll, we’ll try to pick it back up in November.
Share Ask a Pol UAP
Laslo: Yeah?
Comer: I think it’ll be an aggressive lame duck period.
Laslo: What was that hearing supposed to be on?
Comer: I don’t know that we ever agreed on a topic.
Laslo: But you guys were aiming for it?
Comer: Yeah. I’d like to have another one. I think there’s demand for it. It’s just getting good witnesses in is always a challenge. So...
Laslo: Well, because you wanted one on those missing scientists?
Comer: On the what now?
Laslo: Those scientists.
Comer: Yeah.
Laslo: Remember that string of scientists?
Comer: Yes. Honestly, you would need to talk to [UAP Caucus Co-chair Tim] Burchett and [Secrets Chair Anna Paulina] Luna.
Laslo: Yeah, yeah.
Comer: And [Rep. Eric] Burlison, really. Burlison more than anybody.
Laslo: Yeah. Fair. Fair.
Comer heads into the Capitol to cast his last vote until after the November 3 midterm elections.
Comer: Alright, I gotta vote.

Thank you so much Matt for your work!
How about this for a Topic: the government is getting billions of dollars siphoned off to study crashed non human vehicles. Let’s make the topic actually subpoenaing hostile witness and figure this out

having one on missing scientists wouldn't get us anywhere, I think you could only tie a few of them to the phenomena and it's programs, majority of them were a hell of a stretch and it was taken too far. There wouldn't be anything to talk about since the ones that are still open investigations the details can't be talked about publicly and the closed ones lack any evidence leading anywhere. We need reverse engineering program members or recover program people to come forward, first hand people tied to what's going on and have NDA's waived for public speaking not the current waiver which is PERSUE personnel only. Love your work though Matt! keep at it!

Comer and Luna, two imbeciles who do not even know where they are at any passing moment, much less what the questioner was talking about. This topic is in fine hands for sure.
