A Republican congressman has claimed that the American public would be left ‘unglued’ if they were given access to the same classified briefings on extraterrestrial life that he receives. Tennessee Representative Tim Burchett made the remarks during an interview with Newsmax on Wednesday, where he discussed the topic of alien life and the recent deaths of several US scientists.
When asked about former Florida Representative Matt Gaetz’s claim that a military official briefed him on alleged ‘hybrid breeding programs’ involving captured aliens and humans, Burchett said he could not comment directly. However, he spoke broadly about the startling information he has received, stating: ‘I’ve been briefed by just about every alphabet agency there is. If they would release the things that I’ve seen, you would stay up at night worrying about or thinking about this stuff.’
Burchett added that a briefing he received two weeks ago would have caused the country to ‘come unglued’ if the details were made public. He demanded full disclosure of government records on alien life, expressing frustration with the layers of bureaucracy blocking transparency. He noted that he has pressed President Donald Trump for greater openness on the issue.
In February, Trump directed the Pentagon and federal agencies to release records concerning UFOs and Unidentified Aerial Phenomena, but nothing has been made public so far. The government recently registered the domain ‘Aliens.gov’, sparking further speculation.
Earlier in the interview, Burchett discussed the recent disappearances or deaths of several US scientists and military officials, suggesting a possible connection. ‘These folks disappeared or died mysteriously and the only thing that ties them together is the fact that they worked on things that are dealing with outer space,’ he said. ‘Overall, I think there is a connection there. And I don't think we’re ever gonna know.’
