Who?
Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) — House Oversight Committee
LISTEN for FREE: Laslo & Biggs
Ask a Pol asks:
Some think AARO — the Pentagon’s All-domain Anomolly Resolution Office — is not open enough with Congress. Do you sense a changing of their tune?
Key Biggs:
“I do actually,” Rep. Andy Biggs exclusively tells Ask a Pol. “I think they're becoming a little bit more open with us, and that's good.”
Caught our ear:
“It would be nice if the Secretary would give us all a briefing,” Biggs tells us upon learning Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas briefed the New Jersey delegation on the incursions over the state earlier last week. “But he’s not necesarily inclined to do that.”

Below find a rough transcript of Ask a Pol’s exclusive interview with Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ), slightly edited for clarity.
TRANSCRIPT: Rep. Andy Biggs
SCENE: Outside Friday’s classified SCIF briefing, Ask a Pol’s Matt Laslo greets Rep. Andy Biggs as he walks up two flights of steps before traversing an underground tunnel back to his office across the street from the US Capitol.
Matt Laslo: “How'd it go?”
Andy Biggs: “Good. Interesting, as always.”
ML: “What do you — I know people have been frustrated with AARO. Some of them think they’re not open enough with Congress. Do you sense a changing of their tune?”
AB: “I do actually. I think they're becoming a little bit more open with us, and that's good.”

ML: “Yeah? Now, how worried are you and how worried should the American people be about these incursions that we're seeing over New Jersey?”
AB: “Umm, we — I don't have enough information to actually opine on that.”
ML: “Yeah? Even after that meeting?”
AB: “Just in my whole worldview.”
ML: “Yeah?”
AB: “Not commenting on the meeting.”

ML: “Well, it's interesting because I guess Secretary Mayorkas briefed the New Jersey delegation a couple days ago.”
AB: “Oh yeah?”
ML: “It seems like people in Jersey are really freaking out.”
AB: “Oh, is that right?”
ML: “Yeah. They say they're like car sized objects hovering over their residential space.”
AB: “Well, it would be nice if the Secretary would give us all a briefing.”
ML: “Right? That’s what I asked Burchett on the way in.”
AB: “Yeah. But he’s not necesarily inclined to do that…”
ML: “Yeah?”
