Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) said he is 100% sure that the federal government is covering up documents about UFOs — and he’s not alone among members of Congress in trying to push for more information about what could be out there.
“We’ve requested documents, we’ve gone to interview pilots and been stonewalled by our Pentagon. It’s ridiculous, it’s been going on since the ‘40s,” Burchett said Saturday afternoon on Fox News. “We are taking the gloves off.”
Public interest in the possibility of extraterrestrial life, officially labeled as unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) in government circles, has bubbled for decades — often fraught with conspiracies — and seen a recent resurgence. Lawmakers in both chambers of Congress have ramped up their efforts for greater disclosures to allow Americans to better understand the phenomenon.
Burchett, one of Capitol Hill’s loudest voices for increased government transparency around UFOs, sits on the House Oversight Committee, where Republicans have pushed to host a long-anticipated hearing next Wednesday on the recent rise in reports of UFOs. The Pentagon has been investigating that trend since at least April. It said then that no proof of alien life had surfaced.
The Oversight hearing next week will feature David Grusch, a former intelligence employee who claimed in June that the government had a secret UFO recovery program that found a “partially intact craft of non-human remains.” While at least one Democrat has helped Republican colleagues push the issue, members say they have faced pushback from different corners and seen witnesses drop out.

The Air Force admitted they exist in 1952.
“[T]here have been a certain percentage of this volume of reports that have been made by credible observers of relatively incredible things.
“It is this group of observations that we now are attempting to resolve. Our basic difficulty in dealing with these is that there is no measurement of them that makes it possible for us to put them in any pattern that would be profitable for a deliberate custom sort of analysis to take the next step.”

If this saturated your mind, consider staying in the other threads.
Because it’s BS
“Many seem to think UFOs are the devil’s work which is beyond bizzare but I guess UFOs threaten their beliefs if real. Can’t figure that one out either.”
Bingo... Here it is right here. The 12th century superstition that is perpetual.
“Never say the name or speak of the evil or we will be cursed”.
“It conflicts with their predetermined mindset.”
Some minds are like concrete: All mixed up and permanently set.

Lol, brilliant! May I steal that? :)
Are you against free speech when it is about something YOU think is BS?
Heheh. Love it!
The real culprits are the "Unlisted Special Access Projects" that do not appear in any organization chart, funding channel, or project lists. The current legislation in progress is aimed at people who work in those. The question is, "What would make those people respond to the legislation?".
“believed, without fail, everything his daddy ever told him in life.”
And I was the exact opposite when it came to believing my father.
Oh, for crying out loud, Megan, that is priceless!!
I’m a Christian and believe in intelligent life somewhere out there, in the billions of galaxies which contain billions of stars, surrounded by billions of planets, the laws of probability dictate that somewhere a planet has intelligent life on it.
Like you I don’t think believing in intelligent life on other planets violates my Christian beliefs in the slightest.
Personally, in my lifetime I want to see the existence of alien life confirmed, I want to see what the government has and know what is true and what is false.
If some form of intelligent life has visited earth, clearly, they are using technology that we do not have any fundamental understanding of, which in my opinion means if they wanted to destroy us, they could at any moment, so why worry about it, welcome the intelligent life, maybe we could learn something from them, who knows.
Why would you ask that? Did I say people can’t talk about anything? No.
Assume much?
Burchett us the looniest Repub Congressman we have here in TN. At least he’s nit my representative.
Well stated! I concur.
“Lol, brilliant! May I steal that? :)”
Enjoy!
Fair enough.
I agree. I too believe in Our Lord Jesus Christ yet I do not allow orthodoxy to trump reality.
If there are other civilizations in the universe this has not one iota of effect upon my faith.
I absolutely agree!
:)
Explain why it needs to be redacted? Unless Jonny the foreign spy found it and you redact that Jonny is a foreign spy. What is the justified for reacting anything? Joe Biden is stable enough to k own but the rest of the people are not?
