Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) is calling on President Donald Trump to release all government files related to UFOs and aliens just days after saying the president is the “disruptor” who should uncover the information to Americans.
“Just tell the American public. It’s like I told President Trump — peel back the layers of that onion, let America decide if we can handle it. I think we can handle it,” Burchett said Sunday on Fox News’ “The Big Weekend Show.”
The Republican lawmaker called the things he’s been briefed on related to extraterrestrials “pretty wild.”
“I have some ideas about what it is, I’ve been briefed on some things and, yeah, they’re pretty wild. And I think America needs to know that stuff, and we need to know what the heck we’re spending the money on to study,” he continued.
Noting that it’s not about “little green men” or “dadgum flying saucers,” Burchett continued, “It’s about what are we spending tens of millions of your dollars on when some alphabet agency tells me they don’t exist and then again, another department within that department tells me they do exist.”
