U.S. Rep. Eric Burlison Seeks Access to Alleged ‘Unmovable’ Alien Object

U.S. Representative Eric Burlison (R-Mo.) told reporters on Monday that he hopes to get to the bottom of whether humans are alone in the universe.

Burlison said he has heard reports of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon — or UAP — that is not within the United States and is so large it cannot be moved.

“They’ve built an entire building around it,” he stated during a recent interview. “And that’s one of the locations I’m requesting to go to.”

The lawmaker added that while he has no hard evidence about the object, he has heard reports from inside and outside government circles that it exists.

“I’m not going to mention the country because I heard of it in a closed setting, and I want to protect my classification level,” Burlison said.

He said he does not believe the object is housed in South Korea, amid speculation that a large UAP has been located there. However, he has been stymied by government agencies in his attempts to get answers.

“I’m having a difficult time getting access to facilities that are just within a few miles from my office in Washington, D.C.,” Burlison said. “So, to try to attempt to go to another country and get permission at that level is going to be somewhat insurmountable.”

“But it doesn’t mean I’m not going to continue to try,” he added.

Burlison said he believes many agencies are simply looking to protect their information.

“And it’s guarded like it’s some kind of commodity,” he explained. “You have committees that protect their turf.”

“So, if you’re not on the right committee, then oftentimes, you’re turned down,” Burlison noted.

“And sometimes there’s multiple committees that have jurisdiction over a topic. And they love turning each other down,” he continued.

“The very nature of the difficulty of the red tape system within the bureaucracy of Congress is something that’s very difficult to navigate,” Burlison said.

Burlison vowed to always be transparent with Americans about whether aliens exist.

“If I come under any hard evidence, whether it’s physical or video evidence that is absolutely definitive,” he stated, “I will do what I can to protect our national security and our nation’s interest. But I will not hold back on telling the American people that we are alone or not alone in this universe.”

“That is something that no government has the right to withhold from its people,” he added.
