0:31 31 seconds in recent years numerous members of Congress have stepped forward to shed light on the UAP discussion from a 0:38 38 seconds bipartisan and legislative perspective Congressman Tim burchett representing the second district of Tennessee Chapter 4: CONGRESSMAN TIM BURCHETT 0:46 46 seconds discusses his personal views on the subject matter including if he's an advocate for leaked government UAP footage 0:54 54 seconds join us as we get rebelliously curious Congressman thank you so much for joining me on rebelliously carius today 1:03 1 minute, 3 seconds it is a pleasure to have you thank you ma'am I know that you have interest in UFOs 1:10 1 minute, 10 seconds and you've been very vocal about it in the media in recent years especially this year from what I've seen 1:17 1 minute, 17 seconds I'd like to start off our conversation with how did you get yourself involved in the UAP topic and then along with why 1:25 1 minute, 25 seconds are you championing this in Congress well I've never never seen a UFO that I know of um when I was a young young boy you know 1:33 1 minute, 33 seconds back when parent when you could ride your bicycle a couple of miles to the library and you could spend all day there and not be in trouble for it not 1:42 1 minute, 42 seconds your parents wouldn't be in trouble for letting you letting you do it um they would always have the book set up at the library you know that you know 1:51 1 minute, 51 seconds and one time I think they had something you know UFOs Bigfoot Loch Ness monster so you know 2:00 2 minutes and I always just took an interest in in the unusual and the unknown and if somebody told me not to do it that would 2:08 2 minutes, 8 seconds make me that much more interested and um and I read up on it and I read all the books and the magazines as a kid you 2:15 2 minutes, 15 seconds know and at night I'd go out and hope to see something never did but um as I got older I still remain 2:24 2 minutes, 24 seconds interested in it and um I was I was uh crossing the street near the 2:31 2 minutes, 31 seconds Capitol Hill Club and there's a guy there from TMZ I don't know if you know what that is it's the you know it's kind 2:39 2 minutes, 39 seconds of the news comedy kind of thing and they catch people in gas and stuff and they say stuff you know and right unfortunately I do yes ma'am well the 2:48 2 minutes, 48 seconds reporter said hey have you and what do you think of the UFO report and I said I think it's a joke I think it's a 2:55 2 minutes, 55 seconds cover-up I said more people believe in UFOs than believing in Congress and and I ended up putting that on a T-shirt and I sell it on my website 3:04 3 minutes, 4 seconds oddly enough that very quote because that's the truth and I said what about the report and I said brother I said that thing 3:11 3 minutes, 11 seconds I said it'll be so redacted it'll look like a piece of Swiss cheese and he's like really they said they're going to release that's they're not gonna release anything I mean they haven't released 3:20 3 minutes, 20 seconds stuff from the Kennedy files and everybody's dead from that nobody you know so anyway um 3:28 3 minutes, 28 seconds and that got aired and then all of a sudden people started calling me from all over the all over the country actually I mean 3:35 3 minutes, 35 seconds Pentagon you name it and every every organization um and then people started calling me 3:41 3 minutes, 41 seconds that it that it had sightings and you know some of them I think are false Flags maybe they're putting somebody up to calling me to get me to run down some 3:51 3 minutes, 51 seconds rabbit hole but some of these people are I mean they're Heroes I mean they've they've uh um I've had people call me 3:59 3 minutes, 59 seconds that are veterans they've seen me on the TV show Ancient Aliens and described very very credible I mean they have 4:07 4 minutes, 7 seconds nothing there's no reason for them to call me or in people that I know even and had very credible sightings and have 4:15 4 minutes, 15 seconds been told by the CIA or some other alphabet agency to keep their mouth shut it's National Security and 4:24 4 minutes, 24 seconds um you know and every night I tell this story but it's true every night I go out and and look at the um 4:33 4 minutes, 33 seconds um stars out in the sky and and my dogs always have to go to the bathroom in the middle of night so I always just look up at the stars and I think wow a light 4:43 4 minutes, 43 seconds from of stars some of that light left left there before the time of Christ and I think you know in God's fast Universe 4:49 4 minutes, 49 seconds I can't imagine that we're in and also can't imagine where the best God could create either and we we probably hope 4:56 4 minutes, 56 seconds God in pretty low low self State low steam if we think we're the best he could do and um you know and the more and more I dig 5:04 5 minutes, 4 seconds into this the more and more I see the cover up and um and I think transparency is a good thing 5:12 5 minutes, 12 seconds is there any evidence or anything that you've been privy to that would make you believe that this was a government cover-up along with working for the 5:19 5 minutes, 19 seconds American government well I don't trust government I've been in government most of my life ma'am and I've never isn't that kind of ironic though 5:27 5 minutes, 27 seconds yeah but people like me don't stick in it it's gonna just just keep white watching The Puppet Masters will still keep 5:35 5 minutes, 35 seconds you know pulling the strings and um yeah you know they marginalize people like me and make fun of me and try to beat me 5:42 5 minutes, 42 seconds and you know and I get the little shots over the bow taken at me over the internet but people like me don't do 5:49 5 minutes, 49 seconds something imagine what else is out there that they cover up and you know I know I think some of it too I get myself in trouble when I start saying this but it 5:58 5 minutes, 58 seconds doesn't matter it's the truth I think some of our members are compromised you know you go on these foreign trips and there's no way in hell these guys need 6:06 6 minutes, 6 seconds to be going on these trips overseas they're not our best you know they're just the one that kisses up to leadership and gets the ass to go on the 6:14 6 minutes, 14 seconds trip but you know you're sitting in some fancy country in the motel somewhere and somebody of the opposite sex or maybe of the same 6:22 6 minutes, 22 seconds sex it doesn't matter um flirts with you and the next thing you know they're in a motel room and they're 6:30 6 minutes, 30 seconds compromised and I think the honey pot the Russians used to use that they call it the Honey pots but I think that's some of that too I 6:38 6 minutes, 38 seconds think that still goes on do you have evidence of that though or is that just your assumption because that's a pretty bold statement saying that you know people are getting 6:47 6 minutes, 47 seconds involved into honeypots we're using women to persuade maybe they're using man I'm not that's what I said in this day and age it doesn't matter I mean 6:55 6 minutes, 55 seconds yeah there's there's been some pretty well documented cases of people that are involved with people from 7:03 7 minutes, 3 seconds foreign countries that are not friendly to us and it's you know and I've talked to members that 7:09 7 minutes, 9 seconds have that have verified that so I mean it doesn't really matter either way but we've got it's a huge issue people are 7:19 7 minutes, 19 seconds concerned about it and it's it's greed it's power it's technology and um and it goes right back to Power 7:27 7 minutes, 27 seconds who's in charge and you know the reverse engineering of some of this foreign material there's a report that's just out there's a hearing not a hearing but 7:36 7 minutes, 36 seconds a symposium there's a fella talking about I haven't got reviewed the whole thing I think I saw it about four o'clock this morning I believe I saw 7:45 7 minutes, 45 seconds part of it do you mean Gary Nolan is that yeah I believe that where he said I had four and I was supposed to get born material and then I was blocked and 7:54 7 minutes, 54 seconds that's you know that's I mean notice I don't have my shot face on because that's just that's just Washington 101 ma'am again I go back to 8:03 8 minutes, 3 seconds the Kennedy assassination why in the hell are they not releasing that other than they're going to embarrass somebody or some organization which I suspect we 8:12 8 minutes, 12 seconds all know what that's about but this is um you know if you have some foreign technology or alien technology as a case 8:19 8 minutes, 19 seconds may be and and you reverse engineer it there's an incredible amount of power and there's money involved in that and um 8:27 8 minutes, 27 seconds you know and I think we've we're just scratching the surface the very very tip of the iceberg on this thing 8:34 8 minutes, 34 seconds and um you know that's why that's why the hearing that they had the open hearing so-called hearing I walked out the Press 8:42 8 minutes, 42 seconds asked me to do what I thought and I said we got hosed you know I was supposed to be able to ask a question at that and I was going to drill them I was going to wear them out 8:50 8 minutes, 50 seconds and I was getting ready what are you going to ask if you mind me asking it doesn't matter I don't even remember now um it was on one of the um I was going 8:59 8 minutes, 59 seconds to ask about a UFO sighting in the um I think about those Tic Tac videos and why they weren't being showed and they 9:06 9 minutes, 6 seconds showed this lame-ass video something somebody took in a cockpit of a jet fighter and they were using their cell phone to film them and the guy 9:14 9 minutes, 14 seconds couldn't even slow the camera down slow the video down so he could see um Adam Schiff always hey I don't agree with him a lot we're 9:23 9 minutes, 23 seconds friends but he um he asked the best question he said what exactly am I looking at because they were pointing at 9:31 9 minutes, 31 seconds a shadow and there was something that was flying by the cockpit it you know whatever mock speed and you know you had those Tic Tac videos not Tick Tock but 9:40 9 minutes, 40 seconds Tic Tac like the candy if you Google that um if you're I'm sure everybody's seen it there was a 60 Minutes video 9:47 9 minutes, 47 seconds that that had that on there and um and the actual pilot one of the pilots I believe was in the audience and he had 9:54 9 minutes, 54 seconds to have fake credentials to get in they weren't even going to let the guy in an American pilot man best in the world and they were not even going to let him 10:02 10 minutes, 2 seconds testify and you know we just got hosed we got hosed completely the people they had they have in charge of this study or 10:10 10 minutes, 10 seconds whatever hell they can't even spell UFO they are awful and it's it's just it's just a cover-up from top to bottom and 10:18 10 minutes, 18 seconds uh and that's why the American public had very little trust in government we continue to do this on everything but this is something that to me is 10:26 10 minutes, 26 seconds you know we can handle it we can handle it I don't it's not gonna offset my religious beliefs or or my thought I 10:35 10 minutes, 35 seconds think in the Bible has has got UFOs in it as well the first chapter of Ezekiel a will within a wheel and a granted 10:43 10 minutes, 43 seconds the translations a little off um it was a King James version of Aramaic or whatever I'm not really sure 10:50 10 minutes, 50 seconds but anyway but I would actually ask you about that because I know that you speak about religion in regards to yourself 10:58 10 minutes, 58 seconds but then also connected to this topic as well do you do you follow something called the Collins Elite have you ever heard of 11:06 11 minutes, 6 seconds that before I have not ma'am yeah so Colin's Elite is like a is a so-called conspiracy theory that said that's within government and a group of people 11:14 11 minutes, 14 seconds that are in power and that allegedly these things could be technically demonic when you hear that then you know when you're championing this 11:23 11 minutes, 23 seconds topic does that make you rethink the concept of UAP because we don't really know what it is right we don't 11:31 11 minutes, 31 seconds know if extraterrestrial we have no idea yeah I'll be perfectly blunt to you man I'm good with Jesus 11:39 11 minutes, 39 seconds and bye bye right now I'm gonna be right there in heaven with him and I'll be with my mom and dad and a lot of folks that I know and I'm not worried about 11:46 11 minutes, 46 seconds all that I don't I'm not worried demon possession is is a reality um I believe in it it's in the Bible 11:55 11 minutes, 55 seconds um they cast out demons and they ran into a herd of pigs and uh you know that was I believe that 12:01 12 minutes, 1 second is real and uh I believe we have demon possession today I go into that but that's not what we're here about but I I 12:09 12 minutes, 9 seconds don't think it is I don't think it is demon I don't think it's demonic I think we don't know 12:15 12 minutes, 15 seconds yeah that's what I think that's what I think I think it is it is uh 12:22 12 minutes, 22 seconds another life formed somewhere else I don't know yeah and I I'd like to 12:29 12 minutes, 29 seconds actually go back even just outside of this religion I know we're bumping around a little bit but I want to go back even just to the political conversation about uaps because before 12:38 12 minutes, 38 seconds obviously there's a bipartisan and then we move into a space where it's becoming pretty political do you think that this 12:45 12 minutes, 45 seconds is a Republican's conversation about UFOs and not a Democrat no ma'am I don't I have Democrat friends 12:52 12 minutes, 52 seconds that have confided in me as well that there's um it's out there I get a lot of I get blasted on on the internet a lot by a 13:01 13 minutes, 1 second lot of people but they say and I like your like your stance on UFOs and uops so um I just don't allow it to be that I 13:10 13 minutes, 10 seconds think I think it's a the cover-up goes much deeper you know I as long as Republicans and Democrats are fighting blacks and wives Jews 13:18 13 minutes, 18 seconds Christians Muslims what have you the big boys are still going to be making money you know they always seem to be on top 13:25 13 minutes, 25 seconds regardless we're seeing this though as like a very Republican conversation though we're seeing that the Republicans 13:31 13 minutes, 31 seconds publicly and within media are really embracing the UAP topic we've seen it's me it's basically me there's a couple 13:39 13 minutes, 39 seconds well and the interesting part though is Ron DeSantis also took three million dollars from Robert Bigelow which is a 13:46 13 minutes, 46 seconds major UFO supporter an advocate his presidency potentially right yeah I 13:57 13 minutes, 57 seconds mean I know Governor DeSantis um I've spoke with him and uh but I I did not know his connection to UFOs so next time I've 14:06 14 minutes, 6 seconds talked to him I just bring that up but yeah yeah he has a very and I don't know if he does but he did take money and it doesn't mean that it is that because he 14:15 14 minutes, 15 seconds took you know three million for funding for his own campaign from Robert Bigelow who is a a major advocate for UFOs it 14:22 14 minutes, 22 seconds doesn't mean that Ron is but it's interesting to watch we're also seeing that politically you know we look at misinformation campaigns 14:30 14 minutes, 30 seconds and people using misinformation within political writings or political strategy do you think that moving 14:38 14 minutes, 38 seconds forward within you know looking at presidencies or just looking at anything political that people are going to start using the UAP platform UAP topic and 14:47 14 minutes, 47 seconds narrative within their platform and what do you think of that I don't I think they'll use it against people like myself 14:55 14 minutes, 55 seconds I don't see it as as uh in the mainstream as much I think it's the people that know about it know about 15:03 15 minutes, 3 seconds it and the people that want to talk about it publicly do and the others a lot of the conversations I have are very private very private people will call me 15:12 15 minutes, 12 seconds and want to talk off the Record and and show me things and tell me things that are kept off the Record and I try to do 15:19 15 minutes, 19 seconds that because their their privacy is just that and I don't want to put them in the spot so um but yeah I I don't see it 15:27 15 minutes, 27 seconds entering the Republican or Democratic realm I mean I'm a Republican and and most people that I talk to about it are Republicans and that's generally just 15:35 15 minutes, 35 seconds because that's who I'm with in Washington but I there's several Democrats that are involved in it too and then some of them are on the intelligence committee and 15:44 15 minutes, 44 seconds and frankly that kind of bothers me anybody on the intelligence committee dealing with this because they've had a many bites at this apple and to me 15:51 15 minutes, 51 seconds they've haven't done anything with it and they joke about it and so I don't have a lot of I don't have a lot of time for that right now if you ought to put a 16:00 16 minutes solution then in forward and it was your ability to be able to change things around this topic specifically 16:08 16 minutes, 8 seconds yeah talk is cheap we've got to have a somebody on the inside a whistleblower or somebody come forward with 16:16 16 minutes, 16 seconds information I've talked to pilots who said that they've destroyed evidence which should be film 16:24 16 minutes, 24 seconds or some sort because if they were to bring that back they would be debriefed which would probably be a 12-hour 16:31 16 minutes, 31 seconds interrogation and they would have their their credit and their record blemished because of it regardless of the 16:38 16 minutes, 38 seconds Whistleblower protection I don't buy any of that yeah it is saying that it should protect them right there are some new 16:46 16 minutes, 46 seconds rules within the legislation there is for sure that we're looking at it's not you know it's not airtight sealed but 16:52 16 minutes, 52 seconds they should be protected and so you don't think that they can be protected they should be and it's in the uh ndaa 17:01 17 minutes, 1 second National Defense authorization act last when they passed um 20 23 or two I can't remember whatever but they um it's in 17:10 17 minutes, 10 seconds there but still you know the stigma is still there and people are not as forthcoming somebody's going to have to 17:17 17 minutes, 17 seconds walk out somewhere some lab somewhere with undeniable information and they're gonna have to put it out on the internet 17:25 17 minutes, 25 seconds before they commit suicide you know because I think this is that serious I think somebody would that's pretty bold it's 17:34 17 minutes, 34 seconds you know it's great it's the truth ma'am you're talking about billions and billions of dollars of technology I mean 17:41 17 minutes, 41 seconds Congress people making 70 return year after year you know we vote for a missile defense system for Ukraine and 17:49 17 minutes, 49 seconds we wrap the American flag and patriotism around it so we send them our missile defense system and then we have to 17:56 17 minutes, 56 seconds immediately go purchase another missile defense system to replenish our supply and look at people's stock purchases 18:03 18 minutes, 3 seconds prior to that man the system's crooked and um and and you know people just 18:11 18 minutes, 11 seconds uh you know that's why they send people like me to Congress to talk about it and do something about it but we got to have more than me 18:19 18 minutes, 19 seconds you also speak that the tax dollars looking at American tax dollars you know in this in the UAP connected to it how 18:27 18 minutes, 27 seconds do you see American tax dollars connected to it a narrative that should be bipartisan and should have nothing to do with tax money you know how how do 18:35 18 minutes, 35 seconds you roll those two topics into one well in your view right yes ma'am and here's what you're already seeing you're seeing 18:43 18 minutes, 43 seconds some in the Pentagon will come out and say this total this thing's total hoax it's a total joke and you'll see the other side somebody put out something I 18:51 18 minutes, 51 seconds don't know if you saw it said that you know there's a it could possibly be a Mothership and it's releasing these smaller shifts to go 18:58 18 minutes, 58 seconds investigate places like the Earth and otherwise so these are high-ranking officials saying this what are they doing they're after tax dollars is all 19:07 19 minutes, 7 seconds they're doing they've got the information they've got the files they why do they send them redacted they've 19:14 19 minutes, 14 seconds got photographs they've got everything release it release it that's all they got to do that's all they got to do but you know what they're going to do 19:22 19 minutes, 22 seconds they're going to wrap a price tag around this and they're going to have this institute's going to be study it this branch of the government or the space 19:30 19 minutes, 30 seconds force whatever they're going to need an additional billion dollars to study this they don't need to study it ma'am they need to release their files let us 19:38 19 minutes, 38 seconds decide let the American public decide but that's government the Pentagon has not passed out since I've been in Congress I don't think it's not passed 19:46 19 minutes, 46 seconds an audit they lose over a billion dollars every a billion dollars with a B they lose it and you know what nobody 19:53 19 minutes, 53 seconds questions it nobody questions it it is there's more people that work in the Department of Defense more pencil pushers that are in our United States 20:02 20 minutes, 2 seconds Navy man that tells you the machine the swamp whatever you want to call it it's real and that's that's what they're 20:09 20 minutes, 9 seconds after just the dollars so then what's your thoughts on people like Lou Elizondo and Christopher Mellon that have come forward that were working in a 20:17 20 minutes, 17 seconds system and working for Intel and intelligence that you obviously don't agree with but they've come forward now and have really CIS information you know 20:25 20 minutes, 25 seconds what's your views on them are they doing this as an inside job is that your thoughts on this or is it potentially that they're an advocate for this space 20:32 20 minutes, 32 seconds because when I hear somebody working for government that isn't always just Pro doesn't mean you always have to be in everything but it's interesting when you 20:40 20 minutes, 40 seconds bash Intel but then you have all these people that have come forward that are part of Intel to help push the narrative hopefully in a positive light in a 20:48 20 minutes, 48 seconds positive way from what we've seen at least since 2017. well Lewis is a friend of mine we text and we communicate I 20:56 20 minutes, 56 seconds communicate with them this morning as a matter of fact um you know I believe they're legitimate people in this but I believe there's 21:03 21 minutes, 3 seconds some in there that are just pushing the disinformation and some of them ma'am are pushing because you know with artificial intelligence now I believe 21:11 21 minutes, 11 seconds some people are pushing what they believe is truthful information but it is false for oh for sure missing 100 I would agree with you and that goes into 21:20 21 minutes, 20 seconds the funding mechanism the um the Crooked nature of what's going of the funding of but that also could be foreign adversaries it doesn't 21:29 21 minutes, 29 seconds have to be you know the American government right it could be majority of it is foreign adversaries we see a lot of disinformation and misinformation 21:36 21 minutes, 36 seconds coming from other countries not from yeah go one step further what I'm afraid of 21:43 21 minutes, 43 seconds too is that if we when we when we figure out something off this reverse engineering which is kind of a cool term 21:52 21 minutes, 52 seconds to use um we figured something out on that and then we um and then our adversaries get 21:59 21 minutes, 59 seconds it just like it um um you know when we when we develop the atomic bomb in true President Roosevelt 22:06 22 minutes, 6 seconds had passed away President Truman you know mentions to Stalin that we have the bomb and he already knew it because 22:14 22 minutes, 14 seconds Oppenheimer some of oppenheimer's people are Oppenheimer linked it to them and so 22:21 22 minutes, 21 seconds um I really I'm really afraid of that as well that because of our greed and stupidity and short-sightedness I mean 22:29 22 minutes, 29 seconds yeah look I've looked at the documents of Treasury Hunter Biden getting 10 million dollars from the Communist 22:36 22 minutes, 36 seconds Chinese and his family for what I mean give me a break this town is crooked it is broken it's a 22:43 22 minutes, 43 seconds trash can everybody wants to pick and choose the trash out of it they need to turn the trash can upside down with a garden hose and clean it all out it's 22:52 22 minutes, 52 seconds it's top to bottom man it is dirty and it stinks it's been that way for a long time and then what I'm saying isn't 23:00 23 minutes anything new it's just most those guys and gals either they don't know they're naive or they don't have the guts to 23:07 23 minutes, 7 seconds talk about it I'm gonna go back to to when you were talking about footage in leaks are you 23:15 23 minutes, 15 seconds Pro leaks fun video leaks of UAP footage or anything else that might be whistleblower related and leaking 23:23 23 minutes, 23 seconds footage rather than going through the system and going through Arrow if you had to decide which way that would go would you still believe that the citizens should still be releasing 23:32 23 minutes, 32 seconds information or should we still be sending this to Arrow I'm not asking people to create do Espionage I'm just telling you the only 23:40 23 minutes, 40 seconds way for that stuff to get out is that that's the way it's going to have to get out because it's not going to get out through government but isn't that a 23:48 23 minutes, 48 seconds national security threat though that's what they wrap it in why is it a national security threat to know that we have a 23:55 23 minutes, 55 seconds or an entity in our presence in our in our I mean it's not that's what they wrap it in they always say this is not 24:03 24 minutes, 3 seconds that's what they tell our veterans when they're sitting on a on a ship in the middle in in the late 50s and they see 24:12 24 minutes, 12 seconds an aircraft something over the top of them over two city blocks wide a circular craft that hovers over them 24:19 24 minutes, 19 seconds without making any noise without any kind of heat transfer or anything and it takes off and they get back to port and 24:27 24 minutes, 27 seconds they're visited by probably CIA maybe NSA and they're told this is National Security never talk 24:35 24 minutes, 35 seconds about this again that's what they use and it's not National Security it's protecting it's protecting the you know 24:43 24 minutes, 43 seconds the cash flow of somebody and it's and it's wrong and it's evil and that's the bottom line it's greed and it's power and it has nothing to do with 24:52 24 minutes, 52 seconds sovereignty or America's keeping America on top because these Jugheads would sell us out in a heartbeat if they thought 25:00 25 minutes they could and get by with it I know you speak of like the ET like in my thoughts and it doesn't mean always mine always 25:07 25 minutes, 7 seconds matter but you know we don't know what's going on we have no idea right we're trying to figure it out but this Narrative of extraterrestrial is so 25:15 25 minutes, 15 seconds strong within within what how you Advocate UFOs are you worried though that that in 25:23 25 minutes, 23 seconds itself is misinformation as well that leading people you know multiple amounts of people into the future or or now 25:31 25 minutes, 31 seconds currently leading them down a road that might not actually be accurate like do you ever consider that outside of just saying you know this is extraterrestrial 25:39 25 minutes, 39 seconds right yeah every phone call is it a concern yeah does that ever is that ever concern for you every phone call I get every 25:47 25 minutes, 47 seconds message I get every time and walking in Washington and somebody says Hey I want to talk to you about 25:55 25 minutes, 55 seconds this issue every time I'm on an airplane and somebody bends my ear um and says hey something about it I'm 26:02 26 minutes, 2 seconds worried am I being taped am I being recorded is this false is this a bad actor I'm always worried about all 26:12 26 minutes, 12 seconds those things and that's why I'm very cautious when somebody calls me on the phone or wants to talk 26:19 26 minutes, 19 seconds to me about it or shows me a picture or wants me to come see something they have and some Far remote place you know I'm 26:28 26 minutes, 28 seconds always worried about that every time every time and I'm worried about my you know and frankly I've been told I need to buy some of these folks I need to be 26:36 26 minutes, 36 seconds worried about my safety you know but I I don't know why I mean I'm you know I'm one of 26:43 26 minutes, 43 seconds 453 or something so what do you mean by that 453. Congressman Congressman 26:53 26 minutes, 53 seconds 435 yeah I'm sorry I forget it's okay that's my number on the baseball team is 4 35 because I always kill 27:01 27 minutes, 1 second 435th most powerful member of Congress so uh you know and I get it I guess what are people like when you're when you're 27:09 27 minutes, 9 seconds talking to people on in Congress outside of any political walls and you're with each other what are the conversations 27:15 27 minutes, 15 seconds that you're having with them about UFOs like what are the specifics and what are they asking you there's probably a half 27:22 27 minutes, 22 seconds a dove dozen of us that actually talk specifically about it most of it is just try to humiliate me and make fun of me 27:30 27 minutes, 30 seconds and you know and I get that too I I get it you know it's going to be somebody's going to use it against me and I'm you 27:37 27 minutes, 37 seconds know I'm gonna say we got you know medicare's gonna run out of money Merchant's talking about little green man but you 27:45 27 minutes, 45 seconds know we've had 13 documented near misses of our military aircraft you're talking about an 27:52 27 minutes, 52 seconds aircraft worth 50 million dollars or more and we've had a near miss and and we have something in our airspace our 28:00 28 minutes military airspace that we do not control and to me ma'am that is very important and that's very chilling that that no 28:08 28 minutes, 8 seconds one seems to care or maybe they do care and they're just told not to care publicly I think people care I also think people 28:17 28 minutes, 17 seconds concern that it's foreign adversaries you know why why Champion money it cannot be it cannot be a foreign 28:25 28 minutes, 25 seconds adversary but how why not well if it was China they would own us if it was Russia I mean you think Putin would not own 28:33 28 minutes, 33 seconds Ukraine right now he would take back the whole former Russian Empire no ma'am it is not poon's a lot of talk though well 28:42 28 minutes, 42 seconds it's compared to what he has in technology and we've seen that throughout this year it's like it's everybody people said their Nazis had 28:50 28 minutes, 50 seconds UFOs if the Nazis had UFOs ma'am there wasn't many Jewish people left on this Earth and we'd all be Goose stepping right now because they didn't 28:58 28 minutes, 58 seconds have it and they did not have it and and uh if they did if they had that technology they would have they would 29:06 29 minutes, 6 seconds have won the war in their their that ableness would would control this world which it does not 29:14 29 minutes, 14 seconds and we don't I here's what I think I think it's like if I went back in the 1800s and took a 29:22 29 minutes, 22 seconds bunch of cowboys Harley-Davidson motorcycle gassed up I think they would look at it 29:30 29 minutes, 30 seconds and you know eventually one of them might figure out how to get it started um they wouldn't know how to change the spark plugs they wouldn't know about 29:39 29 minutes, 39 seconds they wouldn't know how to refine gasoline they wouldn't understand the oil the crank case they wouldn't understand how to shift gears and you 29:46 29 minutes, 46 seconds know they'd be looking and toying with that thing for a hundred years I think that's where we're at with these craft that we that have been 29:54 29 minutes, 54 seconds that have been um found I think that's that's completely where we're at and we don't understand it the technology is so 30:03 30 minutes, 3 seconds Advanced you look at those Tic Tac videos and those Pilots talking about it and the G's those things do literally 30:11 30 minutes, 11 seconds the human body would be a ketchup package there has to be some sort of atmosphere that we do not understand within those 30:19 30 minutes, 19 seconds uh and I I have had people bring me those videos and explain to me some some 30:26 30 minutes, 26 seconds very prominent people in the world in an off the record conversations away from the capitol away from everything 30:33 30 minutes, 33 seconds they've come to my house and I've viewed those those videos there's no heat signature there is no 30:42 30 minutes, 42 seconds um there's nothing there is no nothing we have on this Earth is capable of that so if if if the government is if 30:52 30 minutes, 52 seconds you're not believing in the government to be able to do its job and for example NASA coming out with its its report soon hopefully the next couple weeks 31:00 31 minutes if the government and government agencies and not-for-profits attached to them um and private contractors not attached 31:07 31 minutes, 7 seconds to them doing the research and doing and looking into the science behind this and you don't agree with those attached 31:14 31 minutes, 14 seconds identities then who should be doing this then who should be doing the research when it comes to the science because we've seen 31:22 31 minutes, 22 seconds that in the past I think at this point that it's it's in some sort of corporate 31:29 31 minutes, 29 seconds control I think that has been handed off and it was so compartmentalized back then that most 31:38 31 minutes, 38 seconds people in government don't have the direct knowledge I believe there are files existing somewhere photos possibly 31:45 31 minutes, 45 seconds um crafts somewhere else and I I think it's so small and the amount of people that 31:52 31 minutes, 52 seconds actually are in no or compartmentalized I mean you know they tell the president no Obama I've stolen interview with Obama Obama just a while back and he 32:01 32 minutes, 1 second said you know I want to know about where we've got the little green man and so they went out and did research and came back and said we don't they went 32:09 32 minutes, 9 seconds and did research ma'am and that was his words you know not no we don't have it no they went and did research and found 32:16 32 minutes, 16 seconds out that we did not have it so do you believe that you you trust and you know these people don't don't 32:24 32 minutes, 24 seconds answer the presidents they don't but it's going to take somebody of a president's a strong president not like the one we currently have now 32:32 32 minutes, 32 seconds somebody with the willpower to say no I don't believe you I'm cutting off your money bring me this information 32:42 32 minutes, 42 seconds I wonder if we're ever going to see that I don't know the fear that I have mainly in this conversation currently right now 32:51 32 minutes, 51 seconds is because of the divide that we see civilly and in many countries too not just in North just not throughout North 32:58 32 minutes, 58 seconds America but this conversation becoming part of extremism do you see that sure I mean the 33:05 33 minutes, 5 seconds distrusting government but and that does lead to a does lead to extremist ideals 33:12 33 minutes, 12 seconds even though the UAP conversation should technically still be bipartisan it should always be bipartisan it shouldn't 33:20 33 minutes, 20 seconds be political or extreme well when you're saying distrust within government in distrust doesn't that create and feed 33:27 33 minutes, 27 seconds into The Narrative of conspiracy theory and Q Anon and the rest of extremism I don't know what Q Anon is I'm not and 33:35 33 minutes, 35 seconds I'm as conservative as they come here in East Tennessee and I have not I don't look at any websites that tell me how to think and some conspiracy every time 33:44 33 minutes, 44 seconds somebody's snake call me a q Anon or something you know and it's water off a duck's back I don't buy that that's an extreme that's a very 33:52 33 minutes, 52 seconds limited that's an internet primarily you don't hear that down at the barber shop I'm over at ball market number three on Western Avenue and nobody brings a q 34:01 34 minutes, 1 second Anon I think that's something that they label conservatives with to keep them contained or shut up and that's like the 34:09 34 minutes, 9 seconds week label some people in the left wing the same way I don't you know I just don't get too hung up on all that stuff 34:18 34 minutes, 18 seconds so when we're looking then you know within the bell and within like Congress and legislation right now it's talking about whistleblowers coming forward 34:27 34 minutes, 27 seconds and hopefully they will be protected and there's some vague language around reporting and and whatnot but if you had 34:34 34 minutes, 34 seconds to choose from what you know of this Narrative of people to come forward within government or to speak to government and to testify to government 34:41 34 minutes, 41 seconds people like Bob Lazar for example you know who would you choose within this topic that should be testifying and who 34:49 34 minutes, 49 seconds do you believe is the most authentic and correct when it comes to the theory of UAP I think you'd better get the pilots you 34:57 34 minutes, 57 seconds gotta get to Pilots first and get them out in front of everybody let the Press talk to them that have seen this that are on the 35:05 35 minutes, 5 seconds tapes one of them is the most is our one of our best pilots in the world I know a guy who knows him 35:13 35 minutes, 13 seconds who is one of the best there is and um and he's the one in the he's one of the main ones that that saw it and and and 35:22 35 minutes, 22 seconds talked about it and um and I was the the military said it didn't exist 35:30 35 minutes, 30 seconds and then it was leaked and then they came back and said those are fake and then they came back later 35:38 35 minutes, 38 seconds and said No in fact those are real I mean that's that's the government you're dealing with and so 35:46 35 minutes, 46 seconds you know you take it for what it is but that's that's it's out there there's enough information out there and 35:54 35 minutes, 54 seconds um but I don't trust the governor to bring anything forward of any substance it's all going to be just like those bogus hearings they had in the you know it's 36:03 36 minutes, 3 seconds going to be doctored and they're not going to bring forth the real stuff they're going to bring across something that's very questionable that nobody even 36:13 36 minutes, 13 seconds it was just beyond me those hearings that hearing that they had and then they had one over in the Senate and everybody was all jammed up about it it didn't do 36:21 36 minutes, 21 seconds anything and you know as soon as you come out with something it'll be denounced or will be a deflection or something else 36:28 36 minutes, 28 seconds and then and that's you get that bite at the Apple and that's it it'll be gone do when you're using this narrative like 36:36 36 minutes, 36 seconds within it's it's part of your identity right now within media was that strategic for you to do that and to use 36:43 36 minutes, 43 seconds that no ma'am I don't it wasn't strategic I was just asked about it and I said the truth and um a lot of people 36:51 36 minutes, 51 seconds are upset about it and a lot of people are glad about it I I didn't set out to be uh somebody who was 36:59 36 minutes, 59 seconds the spokesperson for the UFO community that wasn't I just think we need to know the truth and we need transparency and 37:07 37 minutes, 7 seconds we're not getting it and we won't get it I don't think so my last question then to you is you know what is this what is the UFO 37:15 37 minutes, 15 seconds narrative look like in Congress in the future to you I think we have a very 37:22 37 minutes, 22 seconds slim shot at getting some information I think the best we can do is to keep the the talk alive with real 37:31 37 minutes, 31 seconds scientific data and keep it out of the hands of the folks that are just trying to kill 37:39 37 minutes, 39 seconds it and that that's that's that's my goal is to keep the discussion alive and transparency I don't think anybody 37:47 37 minutes, 47 seconds should be afraid of transparency or the truth well I guess we'll see in the next 37:54 37 minutes, 54 seconds coming months and years to come where this narrative goes thank you so much congressman and as I say to all my guests thank you so much for being 38:01 38 minutes, 1 second rebelliously curious with me today thank you
