US Congressman issues bombshell warning over UFO secrets that would leave the world ‘unglued’

He claimed he couldn't give details because bad things happened to those who tried to talk

A US Congressman has claimed the world would become 'unglued' if the secrets about UFOs were revealed, and suggested the only reason this information remains hidden is because bad things happen to those who try and reveal it.

Tim Burchett is a MAGA politician who sits on the House Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, and earlier this week he claimed to Newsmax he knew things he couldn't share.

He's spoken several times before about investigating UFOs and called for 'full disclosure', but declined to provide details to back up his allegations that there were incredible things being kept from the public.

He 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.

While he says he's been briefed about things that 'would have set the Earth' on fire, he also said that while he'd encouraged the secrets to come out he wouldn't be telling them himself as he was 'not suicidal'.

A couple of years ago he had claimed he thought there was a 'cover up' from the US government about UFOs.

Earlier this year US President Donald Trump promised to release files on the possibility of alien life.

Posting on social media, he said: "Based on the tremendous interest shown I will be directing the Secretary of War, and other relevant Departments and Agencies, to begin the process of identifying and releasing Government files related to alien and extra-terrestrial life, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), and unidentified flying objects (UFOs), and any and all other information connected to these highly complex, but extremely interesting and important, matters.

"GOD BLESS AMERICA!"

That was back in February, but we're yet to see anything getting released as of yet, and since then the US government has been busy getting into a war with Iran.

Even if it was and it doesn't say what the people most interested in UFOs want it to they're likely to make claims of a government cover-up.

Meanwhile, another MAGA politician with an interest in UFOs is Vice President JD Vance, who has said he believes they are 'demons' rather than evidence of alien activity.

If you're thinking that the US has the aliens and their flying saucers under lock and key then that's apparently not the case, as former US President Barack Obama said it was one of the first things he asked about when he got the job.

He said: "The truth is that when I came into office I asked, I was like 'all right, is there a lab somewhere we're keeping the alien specimens and spaceship?'.

"They did a little bit of research and the answer was no."
