Fox News Senior White House Correspondent Peter Doocy pressed White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on the 10 U.S. scientists and contractors who are either missing or dead over the last two years.
These scientists and defense‑linked experts have ties to NASA, Los Alamos in New Mexico, fusion research, or nuclear weapons work. However, as of now, there is no confirmed official finding that these cases are connected.
But there are investigations on individual cases, as well as growing political and media pressure to look at them together, as Trump faced a question about the matter today:
DOOCY TIME: “There are these ten missing scientists with access to classified stuff, nuclear material, aerospace, they’ve all gone missing or turned up dead in the last couple months. Based on what you’ve been briefed, what do you think is happening here? And do you think that this is connected or totally random?”
President Trump: “Well, I hope it’s random, but we’re going to know in the next week and a half. I just left a meeting on that subject. So, pretty serious stuff. But we’re going to be hopefully, I don’t know, coincidence if you want whatever you want to call it, but some of them were very important people and we’re going to look at it over the next short period.”
