The United States would become “unglued” if everyday Americans learned what the government has discovered about aliens — and they deserve to know, according to a congressman shocked by what he’s been briefed on extraterrestrial life.

Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.), a member of the House Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets, said he’s long advocated for “full disclosure” despite the impact the truth could have on the public.

“The public has a right to know, dadgummit, it’s your tax dollars. Let’s get it out there,” Burchett told Newsmax.

“If they were to release the things that I’ve seen, you’d be up at night, worrying about, thinking about this stuff,” he ominously warned, adding he’s sat down with “just about every alphabet agency this is.”

Just two weeks ago, he recalled, he was briefed “on an issue” involving extraterrestrial life “that would have set the Earth on fire.”

“This country would have come unglued, I think, if they would have heard all that I heard. They would demand answers and they … need to. But, you know …unfortunately it just keeps getting covered up and covered up,” he said.
