A sitting United States Congressman from Tennessee has claimed that there is a government conspiracy to “cover up” the existence of underwater alien bases across Earth. The comments were made by Tim Burchett, a Republican representative from Tennessee.
The claims made by Burchett continues a trend of both current and former government officials speaking up about the existence of UFOs (referred to as UAPs in modern times) and what the United States government/military knows about them, particularly since the release of the Preliminary Assessment: Unidentified Aerial Phenomena, more commonly known as the “Pentagon UFO Report”, in 2021 by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.
Burchett’s claims were quite specific, however, as he said an “admiral” told him about the discovery of an underwater alien base on Earth.
“I think there’s a cover-up… There are tens of millions of dollars that we’ve spent investigating these things. We’ve had departments tell us that they have recovery units, but they won’t release full reports. Everything’s covered up,” Burchett said on a show hosted by disgraced former congressman Matt Gaetz, whom the House Ethics Committee found to have paid an underage teen for adult relations, per Mediate.
“I haven’t been briefed on this, just from what I’m putting together, but we have some secret sonar. But what’s so crazy about it, like we’re hiding it from the Chinese. Well heck, Matt, the Chinese sold us the components for it. They know what’s in our sonar probably better than we do. But when they tell me something’s moving at hundreds of miles an hour underwater, and our capabilities are– I don’t think we have anything that’ll do 40 miles an hour, and this one was as large as a football field underwater, and this was a documented case, and I have an admiral telling me this stuff,” he continued.
Despite being so vocal about the alleged existence of underwater alien bases, Burchett is not worried about retribution from the extraterrestrial, reasoning they would have already done so by now.
“I’m not worried about them harming me. I mean, with that capabilities, they would have barbecued us a long time ago,” he concluded.
Burchett, 60 years old, has been serving as the U.S. representative for Tennessee’s 2nd congressional district since being elected to the position in 2019, and has been quite vocal about UAPs for a few years now.
