Lawmakers press for transparency ahead of UFO hearing

The House Oversight Committee hearing on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) next week will be centered on transparency, a bipartisan group of lawmakers said Thursday.

The committee hearing, spearheaded by Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.), will investigate the increase in sightings of UAPs and their impact on national security. Burchett said the lack of information from the government — during Republican and Democratic administrations — has eroded public trust.

“This hearing is going to be different. We’re going to have witnesses who can speak frankly to the public about their experiences,” Burchett said. “We’ve had a heck of a lot of pushback about this hearing. There are a lot of people who don’t want this to come to light.”

Burchett and Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) said members of Congress have been “stonewalled” by military officials when they’ve asked for details on UAPs, including their possible origins.

“This is ridiculous folks. Either they do exist or they don’t exist. They keep telling us they don’t exist, but they block every opportunity for us to get a hold of the information to prove that they do exist,” Burchett said. “And we’re gonna get to the bottom of that dadgummit. Whatever the truth may be. We’re done with the coverup.”

Burchett, Luna and Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) visited a Florida Air Force base to meet with pilots about their UAP sightings, but the group was prevented from meeting the pilots at the last second by the Pentagon and was not shown the sensitive information promised, Luna said.

“And so, if the Department of the Air Force, if the Pentagon thinks they’re above Congress, they have something else coming to them,” she said. “We told them we were going to do this if they continue to hide information and ultimately, American people deserve the facts.”

Too bad Mickey Thompson isn’t still alive.

He had an experience in Mexico when pre-running the BAJA 1000.

If the US government said UFO are real and there are space aliens among us, would you believe them?

......................... uhhhh.... let's see. The govt. has been lying to us at least since 1942 and we are supposed to believe they got religion overnight and now want to fess up.!!

YEAH RIGHHHHHHHTTTTTT!!!!

I doubt any govt. official would say to us: sorry for lying to you for almost a century but the ETs made a deal with Ike and he got screwed over and was dead by the time it was figured out.

I'm not going to go into details since no one "wants" to believe there are any superior beings above us. Humans are basically ignorant and want to stay that way. That's why we are being taken over as we type and do very little about it. I doubt many could handle the truth. Too many lies for too long a time.

..........................

I'm shocked,you mean....the govt. is still lying to us?Why would that be? Could it be that the ET's don't use 93 octane in their saucers to get here from wherever.That free energy does exist and has for decades or at least since the beginning of the 20th century.

But, we are told crude oil is the only "practical" answer. Except for electric cars which need:

more crude oil.

The govt. basically wants us to stop thinking. It's bad for business.....

Hey look, Squirrelly Man! He's too skeerd of UFO's to permit any discussion of them.

Doncha know, the 1st Amendment doesn't include discussions of UFO's.;-)

Normally I would agree. But the trolls have taken to spamming threads where they want to kill free speech.
