Congressman claims UFOs can go underwater, government hiding their existence since 1890s.

Rep. Tim Burchett: UFOs, Government Coverups, and Startling Revelations

Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) is no stranger to the world of UFOs. As a member of a House committee investigating UFO sightings and having attended closed-door briefings, he’s privy to information that most people don’t hear.

But Burchett isn’t one to keep quiet. In a recent appearance on the podcast “Event Horizon,” he dropped some bombshell statements that are sure to grab your attention:

Here’s what Burchett had to say:

• “We’ve been dealing [with government coverups] since 1947, probably since about 1897 in what was the Aurora Texas ‘UFO crash.’”
• “They [the craft] can travel light years or at the speeds that we’ve seen defy physics as we know it.”
• “They can fly underwater and don’t show a heat trail.”
• They could “turn us into a charcoal briquette.”
• “We are out of our league. … We couldn’t fight them off what we wanted to. That’s why I don’t think they’re a threat to us, or they would already have been.”

Well, at least that last statement is somewhat reassuring.

Burchett believes it’s time for the government to come clean and share what it knows about UFOs. He’s tired of redacted reports and wants the American public to have access to all the information. In his own words:

“We don’t need to fund anybody anymore. Let’s just turn loose the reports, quit with the redacted reports that look like Swiss cheese with everything whited out or blacked out, and just give us all the information and let the American public decide. We can handle it. Stop with the arrogance. Stop with the corruption. Let’s get it all out there.”

These statements from Burchett come on the heels of testimony from other military and intelligence whistleblowers, including David Charles Grusch. Grusch claims to have provided Congress with classified information about covert U.S. government programs and an intact craft of “non-human origin.”

According to Grusch, the government has been recovering fragments and intact vehicles of “exotic origin” for decades. He believes these objects possess unique atomic arrangements and radiological signatures, indicating non-human intelligence.

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) has also hinted at the existence of unidentified craft. He claims to have seen evidence of technology that is not possessed by any known allies or adversaries. Gaetz questions why this information isn’t more widely available to the American people.

So, are UFOs really here? Or are these lawmakers simply enjoying the sound of their own voices? Only time will tell.
