A MAGA congressman warned that Americans would become ‘unglued’ if they were fully briefed on what he recently learned about aliens.
Tennessee Rep. Tim Burchett, a Republican, said the country deserved ‘full disclosure’ following a recent classified briefing about extraterrestrial life two weeks ago.
‘The public has a right to know, dadgummit,’ Burchett told Newsmax on Wednesday. ‘It’s your tax dollars. Let’s get it out there.’
‘I think if [the public] would’ve heard all that I heard, they would demand answers,’ Burchett said.
Burchett has long been one of the most vocal lawmakers pushing for answers on alien-related topics, though he did not elaborate on his recent claim.
‘I’ve been briefed by just about every alphabet agency there is, and, I’ll just say this, if they were to release the things that I’ve seen, you’d be up at night, worrying about, thinking about this stuff,’ he said.
The Tennessee lawmaker added that President Donald Trump did not ‘know the questions to ask.’
‘A few of us are going to have to get with the president and tell him what he needs to ask and where he needs to look,’ Burchett said.

“I’ve been briefed by just about every alphabet agency there is. And, I’ll just say this, if they were to release the things that I’ve seen, you’d be up at night, worrying about, thinking about this stuff.”
Burchett then claimed he was briefed two weeks prior on an issue that “would have set the Earth” on fire if revealed, trailing off at the end of the statement. “This country would’ve come unglued, I think, if they [the public] would’ve heard all that I heard. They would demand answers.”
