Who?

Rep. Eric Burlison (R-MO) — Member, Congressional UAP Caucus

Ask a Pol UAP asks:

Will President Donald Trump’s call to publicly release UFO files have any real-world impact?

Key Burlison:

“I’ve already talked to people in the Intel community, and it’s given them a green light to do the things that they’ve always wanted to do on this,” Rep. Eric Burlison exclusively tells Ask a Pol UAP. “I think you’re going to see some things change pretty quickly.”

We listened, killed our paywall and lost 26% of revenue…

Caught our ear:

“We’ll have a hearing when we need to have a hearing,” Burlison tells us.

Matt Laslo: “I haven’t seen you since Trump’s announcement on UAP. Like…”

Rep. Eric Burlison: “It’s awesome. I think things are going to get better.”

Laslo: “What…?”

Burlison: “I’ve already talked to people in the Intel community, and it’s given them a green light to do the things that they’ve always wanted to do on this, so...”

Laslo: “Oh, interesting.”

Burlison: “I think you’re going to see some things change pretty quickly.”

Laslo: “So does that put public hearing on hold?”

Burlison: “We’ll have a hearing when we need to have a hearing.”

Laslo’s stopped at US Capitol Police security checkpoint as Burlison enters Capitol to vote.
