n we spoke with Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC), he was already over the UFO investigations and conversations taking place on Capitol Hill.

While Tillis hadn’t reviewed UFO whistleblower David Grusch’s allegations in the report he sent to the Inspector General, the North Carolinian says he doesn’t need to because his mind is already made up.

“There’s probably no question there is life out there. I just believe there’s no question we haven’t seen it on Earth yet,” Tillis exclusively told Ask a Pol.

Tillis isn’t on the Intelligence or Armed Services Committees, but he says from what he’s gleaned in All-Senate classified briefings, congressional inquiries into UAPs are a waste of time.

“I know UFO’s are sexy, but having sat in the SCIF [sensitive compartmented information facility], read classified annexes, heard of eye-witness accounts and then the ultimate resolution, I think we’re probably spending more time on it than we need to,” Tillis said.
