James Comer about the administrative state: βWe want the bureaucrats gone. Not only do we want to end the bureaucracy, we want to fire the deep state bureaucrats who have failed the American people. They have failed the taxpayers. And Trumpβs doing that. In 30 days, heβs done a lot, but I canβt tell you, weβve just scratched the surface. Thereβs a lot more to do.β
Today at the 2025 Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), Jan Jekielek talked to Congressman James Comer (R-Kentucky), chair of the House Oversight Committee, to discuss the Trump administrationβs aggressive push to root out waste and fraudβfrom AI-driven fraud detection to investigating apparently deceased individuals in the Social Security database.
James Comer also discusses how the situation on the border has changed since Trump took office, how to tackle the poultry crisis, and what the newly created Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets will be up to.

Chairman Comer about communication with the White House: βItβs just a breath of fresh air. When we request information, we actually get it now from the White House. We have Cabinet Secretaries who Iβm communicating with. You know, often my staff is communicating with their staff. We had no communication with the Biden administration. We would ask for information, and they would basically give us the middle finger, and then go a step further and have CBS or NBC or CNN write a hit piece on us for asking, for having the audacity to question where dollars were spent, especially in the case of Ukraine.β
