Missouri Rep. Burlison Says He Has Seen UAP Footage, Pursues Classified Briefings and Site Access

To the point

Missouri Republican Eric Burlison says he has seen videos of unidentified anomalous phenomena, including glowing orb‑like objects that can appear stationary before moving at incredible speeds, and that neither he nor the filmmakers can identify what they are or that the intelligence community may know either, he has been granted access to at least one classified site and plans to visit several more while pursuing briefings, whistleblower testimony and more information, though he remains skeptical and says more concrete evidence is needed, a view echoed by reports that he toured a classified base he believes is connected to UAPs and crash‑retrieval programs, while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says the department is pursuing disclosure under an executive order and will brief the president, and renewed attention to UAPs follows a 2023 House hearing featuring former Air Force intelligence officer David Grusch and renewed remarks by Barack Obama and Donald Trump about transparency and access to government files.
