Who?
Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) — Co-chair, Congressional UAP Caucus
LISTEN: Laslo & Burchett
Ask a Pol asks:
What’s your big takeaway from the Nov. 13 House UAP hearing?
Key Burchett:
“Well, we really need a Select Committee, so that we can go out and get this information subpoenaed, eventually,” Rep. Tim Burchett told Ask a Pol. “But the reality is, none of that's needed if President Trump will come through with disclosure.”
ICYMI — Chair Mace post-Nov. 13 hearing: “We need more whistleblowers”
Caught our ear:
What's your ask to the incoming administration?
“Full disclosure,” Burchett told us. “Nothing else.”
But talking to some of your colleagues, they say some of this information could still be sensitive…
“They're compromised,” Burchett said.
Some of them were just in there at the hearing with you...
Below find a rough transcript of Ask a Pol’s exclusive interview with Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN), slightly edited for clarity.
TRANSCRIPT: Rep. Tim Burchett
SCENE: Just as the public House UAP hearing was breaking up on Nov. 13, Ask a Pol’s Matt Laslo caught up with Burchett in the hall — even as he was exchanging business cards with some guests and talking to a cameraman who was recording us.
Matt Laslo: “What's your ask to the incoming administration?”
Tim Burchett: “Full disclosure, nothing else.”
ML: “But talking to some of your colleagues, they say some of this information could still be sensitive. How do you…”
TB: “Yeah, they're compromised.”
Laslo laughs.
ML: “Some of them were just in there.”
Burchett motions to a cameraman following us.
TB: “You good?”
ML: “Here, we can tag team.”
Camerman: “Okay.”
ML: “Let's do it, so that one of us gets your attention.”
Camerman: “How about I walk in front of you guys?”
Laslo thumbs up.
Burchett now talking to a person in line for the hearing.
TB: “I got your card, dude. Somebody's gonna be calling you, we'll set something up, okay? I doubt it will be an hour, maybe 15 minutes. But we'll get something. I'll get somebody to call you. Okay, let me get with these guys. They been waiting on me.
Burchett turns back to Laslo.
TB: “What do you got?”
ML: “What do you think is the big takeaway is from that?”
