Great catch, Matt! I think Rounds is taking the right approach. Try to be hopeful that the system works (AARO), but don't put all your eggs in one basket (UAPDA 2.0 :fingers-crossed:)

100%. Demand better, remain skeptical and work with what little you got*

*except you're a US senator, so demand what you want from the executive branch you fund and oversee...

Sounds like Congress is holding the DOD and IC’s feet to the fire more but they want a more sure fire mechanism to force their hand. These groups working more with AARO may be a sign that some of them are accepting the fate of this effort

'Congress' -- an amazing term cause both an it and a they.

This 'Congress' is disjointed, multilayered, quirky but actually seems fairly efficient behind the scenes, likely cause there are perpetual distractions eating up all the coverage.

I digress.

Awesome stuff. Can you ask if they will address concerns with the eminent domain language?

And NO. The proponderance of the evidence is they are lying publicly with their shoddy reports. They are NOT on the hunt unless this is a bugs bunny cartoon and they are Elmer Fudd.

Looking for House members on or adjacent to HASC... They seemed to care more about the details than senators last NDAA.

I love the Senator’s tone when he replies with, “Ooohhhhh Yeah” to Matt’s question about if UAPDA talks have started up again. So, for anyone reading these comments, don’t just read the transcript, make sure you listen to the audio to get a feel for the tone/vibe.
