JFK assassination task force to reveal findings on UFOs, Area 51 and pledges Americans will get ‘the truth’

A top Republican lawmaker overseeing DOGE’s sweeping changes in Congress has vowed that Americans will soon get ‘the truth’ about UFOs and what secrets are hidden at Area 51. 

House Oversight Chairman James Comer, R-K.Y., this month created a task force to unveil long-kept government secrets of massive public interest. 

His group is a direct response to Donald Trump’s executive order to declassify secrets like the JFK assassination files, intelligence on Martin Luther King Jr.’s murder, and also the killing of Robert Kennedy. 

Trump has also pushed for the release of documents related to Jeffrey Epstein‘s death in prison and information on UFOs, also called unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP).

During the roll out of the new task force earlier this month its leader Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, standing next to Comer, said the group will uncover files on JFK’s assassination – which she believes involved multiple shooters – and UAP.

Speaking with Daily Mail’s podcast Welcome to MAGAland at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) this week, Comer, for the first time, committed to investigating and – possibly releasing – files on Area 51 as a part of Trump’s new mandate.

‘I don’t think the government’s been 100 percent truthful with the American people about what may or may not exist out there, especially in Area 51,’ Comer said in an exclusive interview, which was previewed on Daily Mail’s podcast Welcome to MAGAland. 

Area 51 is a U.S. Air Force base officially called Homey Airport or Groom Lake, which is the rumored home to some of the nation’s longest running extraterrestrial mysteries.

Decades-old conspiracies hold that the base hosts crafts recovered from aliens, which could helped lead to some of the most advanced stealth planes the U.S. military ever built, like the U-2, which was reportedly tested there. 

‘I know this is an area where Anna Paulina Luna…all on that task force, they want to know, and they want to release the American people what the government knows and what’s really going on there,’ he continued. 

‘So hopefully we’ll be able to find that out.’

He admitted that he currently has no advanced knowledge on what happens at the U.S. military sight or UAP, but that he wants to find out more.

‘I’m curious about UFOs. I don’t know anything about UFOs,’ he shared. 

His task force is going to be able to force the agencies tasked with preparing the declassification reports to keep on time and in accordance with the president’s executive actions. 

One of their top priorities is releasing information on drones and UAPs that have been spotted across the country.

Just days after Trump handed down the order thousands of additional JFK files that had previously been left out of a critical report were uncovered. 

The FBI needed some prodding in the public disclosure effort though, Comer claims. 

He stressed his Republican-led Oversight Committee and the task force run by Luna will need to watch what closely what the government’s ‘liberal activist’ workers will do while preparing the files for release. 

‘When President Trump ordered the release of the JFK assassination files and classified documents, what we learned a week and a half later is the agency didn’t release all the documents,’ he said referencing a report on the FBI. 

‘There were still 1000s of more pages. So we felt like this task force could follow up, and ensure that these agencies do what they’re supposed to do, because what we’ve seen over the past two decades in Washington is these bureaucrats don’t comply with Congress.’

‘They don’t obey the president. They have their own agenda. They’re all liberal activists and and they’re arrogant. They don’t think the American people deserve the truth. They think they could spend tax dollars any way they want, the law doesn’t apply to them.’

Comer warned that noncompliant workers would be ‘harassed to death’ by some of the task force’s most adamant conservative personalities like Luna, Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., and Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tenn.  

Republicans will claim the scrupulous oversight is the latest iteration of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) push to root out fraudulent and wasteful spending within federal ranks. 

Some GOP lawmakers have expressed frustration with federal employees, so reviewing spending in these agencies could be a meaningful way to address the nation’s mounting debt and unlock cash to be spent elsewhere. 

In this vein, Comer vowed during DailyMail.com’s interview that he would review the money spent on Ukraine aid ‘line-by-line.’ 

His promise to review U.S. spending on Ukraine item by item comes as Donald Trump turns up the heat on President Volodymyr Zelensky, who the Republican called a ‘dictator’ this week. 

‘I’ve been very skeptical of Ukraine funding. I voted against Ukraine funding. I’ve stated the obvious, that Ukraine didn’t have a very good reputation of spending money and having a transparent government,’ Comer said. 

The oversight chair continued: ‘You look at Zelensky, he hasn’t had elections there. You know, I think there’s a lot of questions about the spending. I don’t want to see any more tax dollars go there.’

‘And I don’t think they’ve been very transparent on the money they’ve received for the United States. So I want to see where it’s all been spent, and hopefully we can get the truth to the American people.’
