Washington is captivated by UFO excitement. A congressman suggests UFOs could be from an ancient civilization, while a senator claims those who retrieve the crafts are not held accountable.

Republicans in Congress Suggest UFOs Could Be Time-Traveling Crafts

According to a couple of Republicans in Congress, UFOs might actually be here among us. Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-WI), a former Marine, recently proposed the idea that these unidentified flying objects could be piloted by humans from the future, similar to the concept in the movie “The Terminator.”

Gallagher, appearing on ESPN analyst Pat McAfee’s sports talk show, suggested that UFOs, now commonly referred to as unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs), could be an ancient civilization that has been hiding on Earth and is now revealing itself.

“This should be an opportunity for the government to be transparent,” Gallagher said. “If we have information that disconfirms the extraterrestrial hypothesis, or all these other ones, at least it shows the government doing something competent and being forward-leaning by declassifying information to the public.”

However, Gallagher also mentioned the possibility of a simpler explanation. He wondered if the UFOs could be adversary technology, particularly from China, given his role as the chairman of the House Committee on the Chinese Communist Party.

Meanwhile, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) expressed concern about the military’s alleged UFO crash retrieval and reverse-engineering program.

“In a complete and uncut transcript of his recent interview, supplied to the DailyMail.com by a member of Senator Rubio’s office, Rubio described the alleged UFO program as ‘in essence, some sort of an internal military complex that’s their own government and is accountable to no one,’” the UK paper reported.

Rubio, who serves as vice chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, claimed to have heard firsthand testimony on covert UFO programs from senior military and intelligence whistleblowers.

David Charles Grusch, a former combat officer and UAP expert, has provided Congress with classified information about covert U.S. government programs. He alleges that the government possesses an intact craft of “non-human origin.” Grusch filed a complaint stating that he faced illegal retaliation for his disclosures.

According to The Debrief, Grusch revealed that the government and its allies have been recovering fragments and intact vehicles of exotic origin for decades. These objects possess unique atomic arrangements and radiological signatures, suggesting non-human intelligence.

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), who attended a classified UAP briefing, has also hinted at the existence of unidentified crafts that are not possessed by any known country. He expressed concerns about the lack of transparency regarding this information.
