Chuck GrassleyPlease support our original and groundbreaking UFO journalism!!! TRANSCRIPT: Sen. Chuck GrassleyMatt Laslo: “Have a random question for you. Have you heard of this UAP or UFO whistleblower, David Grusch?”Chuck Grassley: “No.” ML: “I only ask because his claim is that there are SAPs — or Special Access Programs — that have been hidden from Congress and that becomes a Judiciary [Committee] question.”CG: “That's got nothing to do with my investigation, so I don't have any comment on it because I don't know much about it.” ML: “Yeah, fair. But it’s interesting, because he makes a constitutional claim that the executive branch has been hiding Special Access Programs from Congress. So I'm curious if it does…” CG: “Well, I’ve got 28 investigations going, I can’t keep on top of somebody else's investigation.”ML: “There you go.
