Tim Burchett Tells Matt Gaetz Aliens Are Hiding Under the Sea: ‘I’m Not Worried About Them Harming Me’

Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) told his former colleague Matt Gaetz on Wednesday that he believed aliens were currently hiding under the sea.

During an interview with Burchett on One America News’ The Matt Gaetz Show, Gaetz asked, “It does seem a lot of these UAP sightings are over water. Do you think there’s anything to that?”

“I do,” replied Burchett:

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.

Gaetz questioned, “So that’s where you think the bases are? It’s underwater then because of those reports?”

“I do. I just think, travelling light years, I think it happens,” said Burchett. “I think it’s possible in the vastness of God’s great universe. I mean light years, you know, the light from those stars that we see at night left there before the time of Christ. I mean, the vastness of God’s great universe is unreal.”

The congressman added that he wasn’t afraid of extraterrestrials harming him, however.

“I’m not worried about them harming me. I mean, with that capabilities, they would have barbecued us a long time ago,” he concluded.

Following the interview, Gaetz asked on social media, “Have you ever heard a sitting congressman confirm alien bases on earth?”

Burchett has been vocal in his belief that the government is covering up the existence of UFOs.

“This thing is a huge cover up, for whatever reason,” he told NewsNation in 2023. “And, you know, I just feel like America is ready. We need to know and to stop with all of the shenanigans.”
