House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) on Sunday said the committee will investigate the deaths and disappearances of 10 American scientists who all had links to U.S. nuclear or space research programs.

Authorities have not confirmed an official connection between members of the group, though it’s been noted that each of them had high-level security clearances at certain national research facilities.

“We’re very concerned about this. This is a national security concern. This would suggest that something sinister may be happening,” Comer said during a Sunday appearance on Fox News’s “Fox & Friends.”

Comer said the committee will seek briefings on the topic from the Pentagon, FBI, Department of Energy and NASA, according to NewsNation.

2. JFC! This administration's negligence is criminal!

It took *Comer* to realize this? We’re in even more trouble than I thought.

4. I count 7 people in the slide

5 worked or were funded by JPL and *could* be in related fields ( search for exo planets with water ), near earth asteroids. Of the 2 that worked at LANL, 1 was an administrative assistant. I would totally discount the LANL deaths and concentrate on the people connected to JPL / Wright Patterson.

Could someone be trying to hide something by offing these people... unlikely in the extreme... but possible.

Full disclosure, I once worked at NASA for a decade and spent a lot of time at DOE ( LLNL, LANL, LBL ).

6. I'll bet that they end up ...

.... Accusing the Fed chair of this dastardly dead!

(The alien angle was already posted, so I had to get creative.)

7. DOGE gave Russia all the data it collected.

Prove me wrong.

We are witnessing the Russian asset destroy our country from the inside and Putin is smiling.

former Federal police Agency, the FBI. Instead, we have drivers and escorts for the Directors girlfriend and agents to look after the Director who might be on a bender.
