Congressman has grim take after access to UFO footage: 'We can't handle it'
Fox News ^ | 7/12/23 | Chris Eberhart

Posted on 07/13/2023 1:59:20 AM PDT by Libloather

A Tennessee lawmaker issued a dire warning after claiming to have seen classified UFO footage that hasn't been released to the public.

Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., speculated extraterrestrial life forms could have technology that humanity "can't handle" during an appearance on the "Event Horizon" podcast.

"If they’re out there, they’re out there, and if they have this kind of technology, then they could turn us into a charcoal briquette," Burchett said.

"And if they can travel light years or at the speeds that we’ve seen, and physics as we know it, fly underwater, don't show a heat trail, things like that, then we are vastly out of our league."

Burchett is a sitting member on the House Oversight Committee, which has held hearings about potential threats of unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP), a government-derived term for UFOs.

"We can’t handle it," Burchett said during his podcast appearance about potential alien tech. "We couldn't fight them off if we wanted to. That's why I don't think they're a threat to us, or they would already have been."

His startling comments came after whistleblower David Grusch, a decorated Air Force veteran who is considered by many to be credible, came forward with claims the government has been running a secret UFO retrieval program.

The House Oversight Committee is preparing a hearing to discuss Grusch's unverified claims. Burchett and fellow Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna of Florida will lead the committee's investigation.

Thanks for the kind words.

It's always just plain fun. I never know where I'll end up day-to-day.

UFD... Unidentified Flying Davids? Could be anyone?

One of my favorite wanderings was the search for the missing David. All I wanted to know was where was David no. 1076, and what were the circumstances behind that particular search result anomaly.

Then it turned out that not only was David located in plain sight in Florence (being the most famous statue in the world, inventory no. 1076), he was hiding in the very verse about his being noticed *because* he would be discovered missing.

Then I saw that the printed English Bible text is likewise formatted to indicate that he's there. The simple reality, then, is that he was stashed there undercover as the letter vav ("him").

Maybe he's like a person with a middle name in quotes, only in this case it's the middle letter. Vav -- the letter of connection, dot + dot.

"Jerusalem" spelled out by the letters-as-words = 1076, and everyone knows that Jerusalem is "DC", David's Capital.

"Discover the story. Embrace the connection."

It's not one thing or another, but the total experience. It's just not normal. Okay, well in my world it is. It's always something.. I lived the verse, like when Gumby turned aside to slip into a book to become part of the adventure.

"If you've got a heart then Gumby's a part of you."

Come to think of it, one of the famous opinions about the Messianic name "Shiloh" is that it should be read as shai-lo, "a gift for him".

Sound-wise that's perfectly reasonable, but the last letter is a hei, ergo "a gift for her". Yet it is pronounced shai-lo, not shai-lah. I never see this addressed, so it bugs me.

Is Shiloh a gift for him, or a gift for her? Who can tell anymore? Heh, I might have just answered my own question.

Preferred pronouns -- it's a modern topic of vexation and woe, in any case. People are triggered by pronouns.

It's not complicated. I gave one of the chickens the name Shiloh because she's shy.

'We can't handle it'

The tRUTH is out there, but folks are distracted off the way, too busy arguing. 🫤

Eh, meanwhile... I find the best stuff. Top shelf.

Now that's one fine multi-level response, all rolled into one... meme.

Brilliant, Thanks! You are dialed in.

Deep.

"Some mathematicians see beauty in mathematical results that establish connections between two areas of mathematics that at first sight appear to be unrelated.[4] These results are often described as deep. While it is difficult to find universal agreement on whether a result is deep, some examples are more commonly cited than others."

Chong says it happened "by accident when we were rehearsing. I was inside a nice air-conditioned room. Cheech was outside. It was a really hot August day. The sun was beating on his head and the door was locked from the inside. Everytime he'd knock I'd torture him and say, 'Who is it?' I was supposed to open the door and let him in."

Isaiah 11:9...

They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters (MEMES) cover the sea.

'We can't handle it'

Well, what can you do,

"The door was locked from the inside."

I've been working intimately with electronics and software since 1967. Trust me, I know what cell phones are and how they work.

My point was not to assign a demonic nature to cellular phones, but to point out that cell phones have been a great deal more harmful to our society than the UFO/ET "presence". Cell phones spread false information rapidly, destroyed conversation at the dinner table, reduced people's interaction with more meaningful sources of information, distract drivers, and cause the creation of videos rather than the rendering of aid.

They do have good attributes as well.

It seems that takes an hour or two. It is coming back up that might have to wait a few hundred years.

Suppose the Star of Bethlehem was induced directly into their visual cortexes, and wasn’t a physical object at all.

Suppose the planet earth is planet Australia, full of the worst human refuse from their world and they are just flying by to surveil their penetentiary.

Suppose they gifted Christ to see if the hoards were ready to have an injection of humanity. By

That actually sounds plausible, and has been proposed quite often. There are very detailed descriptions concerning how souls are collected after death, debriefed, and then reincarnated for additional rehabilitation. Given the nature of humans, it is difficult to refute.

Here’s another problem, we’ve had flybyes well before Christ, there’s even some Christian artwork including the vessels. Then we have how many characters in the Bible doing space and time travel. Most notably John.

Anyone capable of this is also capable of embryo transfer.

Yep, my thoughts exactly. Most people come unglued when they read or hear the accounts of UFO abductees. It seems the abductees are routinely told that we are the result of their handiwork, and other species are being derived using our DNA.

You may give it some thought that we may live in a multi dimensional universe, in other words these so called unidentified objects really don’t have to travel great distances but have acquired the knowledge and technology to jump from one dimension to another within the blink of an eye. Another reason why quite often we may see one and all of a sudden it disappeared just as quickly. Just because we do not understand this process, at least not yet, doesn’t mean it is not possible.

Probably their technology is so far advanced that very few of us could fathom it and at the same time would turn many religious believes upside down what probably is the reason that some people who recognize what appears to behind all these phenomena’s indicate that many people just could not handle it. It would be comparable if we go back just hundred-and-fifty years and attempt to explain that before long we will be able to talk to some one on a hand held device at the other side of the globe and see his picture as well. People most likely will assume that you are crazy.

The same goes for being able to fly, as a little over a hundred years we were not even able to get off the ground. In reality I do believe that when it comes to technology humanity has barely scratched the surface and there is much, much more on its way that is if humanity doesn’t self destruct before then.

'We can't handle it'

Lighter subject:

מ

Rotating the "L" in the 4 by 180 degrees:

סוד

401 = 40, thus

יסוד

"In at'bash, mem transforms to yud, the point of wisdom or revealed insight, the drop of water emerging from the fountain of the mem."

https://www.inner.org/hebleter/mem.htm

"Betzalel", meaning in the shadow of L [אל], 50:

311. CREATION BY LETTERS

With letters, heaven and earth were created, the oceans and rivers were created, all the
world's needs and all the orders of Creation. And each letter flashed over and over again
like lightning.
>>>

Bezalel, the architect of the tabernacle, knew how to combine the letters through which
heaven and earth were created.

>>>

312. THE SHINING LETTERS

Most people derive pleasure from eating and drinking, not from the light shining through
the letters. The Tzaddik, however, derives no pleasure from eating or drinking or other
bodily pleasures. Instead, he is renewed by the shining letters, and derives all his plea-
sure from them. For the letters of the holy tongue animate every object. And the Tzaddik,
when reaching for an object, can actually grasp the letters within it.

Basic kabbalistic doctrine holds that the interaction of the letters of a word is di-
rectly linked to what that word represents. Indeed, every object has at its essence the
letters that make it up. Most people are oblivious to this inner truth, the letters glow-
ing inside of every object
. But the Tzaddikim -- the righteous ones -- are well aware of
these letters and are even able to grasp them. Here Rabbi Nachman expands, as he
often does, on the remarkable spiritual insight of the Tzaddik.

Tree of Souls pgs. 251-252

"Tzaddik yesod olam"

יסוד = 80 = מם
