Burchett on aliens: ‘You’d be up at night’ if ‘the things that I’ve seen’ are released (dadgummit)

Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) on Wednesday discussed his knowledge surrounding aliens, telling a Newsmax host he would be “up at night” if “the things that I’ve seen” were released.

“I’ve been briefed by just about every alphabet agency there is, and I’ll just tell you this, if they would release the things that I’ve seen, you would stay up at — you’d be up at night worrying about or — thinking about this stuff,” Burchett told Newsmax host Rob Finnerty on his show.

“We just need to disclose it all. I’m sick of it, you’re — ah, well, — I was briefed, I will just tell you this, I was briefed last week on an issue — or excuse me, two weeks ago — and it would’ve set the earth on — this country would’ve come unglued, I think, if they would’ve heard all that I’d heard.”

Burchett has previously suggested that the U.S. government may have purposefully hidden information about unidentified anomalous phenomena, often known as UFOs.

“I think there’s a cover-up,” Burchett said in an appearance on NewsNation’s “The Hill” in April 2024.

“There are tens of millions of dollars that we’ve spent investigating these things. We’ve had departments tell us that they have recovery units, but they won’t release full reports. Everything’s covered up,” the Tennessee Republican added.

IMHO: BS!
Although if Obama ever said the same thing, I’d believe it...

Waiting for those who insist nothing can fly faster than the speed of light (ergo, no aliens) and those freepers who just say, "There are no aliens" with no argument...

News flash. No one is saying they are aliens and no one is saying they are from outer space.

There are muddy boots in the kitchen. The doors are locked, and the security system is activated.

It's impossible, but the muddy boots are still in the kitchen. And they are not OUR muddy boots.

I would never say “there are no aliens.” I’m sure this universe houses tons of them. I just don’t think they have the wherewithal to travel here from wherever they are.

The question is: What are they and what do they want?

All these decades the American people have been ready for the truth. We are not children who have to be lied to, to safeguard our feelings and childhood innocence.

We’ve seen Close Encounters and watched the X-Files. More importantly, millions have watched some of the Ancient Aliens and related shows-—including the silliest and disproven ones. I have all 285 of them on dvd. Full disclosure, I have written articles about the topic published in national magazines and newspapers, mostly 1975-1990. Not one concluded the ufo stories were true.

I mean to be fair, Biden was in the White House with him. That’d keep me up at night, too.

Question - who has ultimate authority to decide what is or is not allowed to be declassified?

Many Presidents have promised to release documents relating to the UFO phenomenon. But, little of consequence has ever been made public.

Perhaps there really is nothing “to declassify” or are there powers above the Presidency.

Even on a ufo thread I can’t get away from “boots on the ground”—or on the kitchen floor. 😉

If the boots don’t fit, you must acquit.;-)
