12.957 - 14.54 Unknown

Good to see you, sir.

14.56 - 16.523 Tim Burchett

Thank you for having me, brothers. Big honor.

0

16.744 - 33.514 Unknown

Thank you. An honor for me, too. Very excited about this. Very excited to talk to you. There's so many different things to discuss. So do you know what is going to be released? So supposedly this is the week of some kind of disclosure. Can you give us any insight as to

0

33.494 - 59.951 Tim Burchett

What's going on? Oddly enough, I got a call that tomorrow at 3 o'clock I'm going to be briefed over the phone by I think one of Hedgeseth's top dogs is going to go over some stuff with me that they've got. And I have no earthly idea. I don't want everybody to get their hopes up. I don't have a lot of faith in our government. President Trump's always been great to me. He's never lied to me.

59.991 - 77.49 Tim Burchett

But I don't know that he knows the right questions to ask and the right people to talk to because, I mean, this thing's been covered up at least since 1947. And I just don't think they're going to – they don't give up that easy. The war pimps at the Pentagon and everybody else, they just don't give up that easy.

77.47 - 84.702 Unknown

How did you come to understand all this stuff? What was your understanding of it before you got into government?

85.143 - 94.318 Tim Burchett

I had pretty cool parents. Now they would – daddy was an old World War II Marine and mama flew an airplane during the Second World War. I mean they were badasses.

Chapter 2: What insights does Rep. Burchett provide about UFO disclosures?

94.759 - 115.716 Tim Burchett

Then they were good Christian people, but – My daddy was a stone cold killer. I mean, he was the real deal. He was on Peleliu and Okinawa and the Marine Corps. And of course, mama's oldest brother, Roy, got killed fighting the Nazis. And mama did her part. Just a little country girl. Didn't have electricity till she's a senior in high school. So I've kind of lived the American dream.

0

115.736 - 121.045 Tim Burchett

But they would let me, you know, they'd let me get bloodied up and then they would.

0

121.025 - 142.003 Tim Burchett

patch me up and let me go you know i could ride my bike to the library or the library if you're from east tennessee and uh and it was you know about a mile from the house and they'd go in there and have these books set up and they had all this stuff on you know this wild stuff and there's a book on ufos and i just picked it up and started reading and i probably wasn't

0

141.983 - 162.048 Tim Burchett

I don't know, seven or eight years old. And I just always followed it. You know, the magazine articles and I'd go out at night and hope to see a UFO. Never did, never have until some of the briefings I've been in. But, and then I'm walking down the street and can I mention another news source?

0

162.068 - 162.769 Joe Rogan

Is that okay?

162.789 - 181.407 Tim Burchett

I was walking down the street and TMZ was, there was a guy there, this black fella, his name's Colin. He's a buddy of mine. He doesn't work for them anymore, but he was filming, and he said, hey, Congressman, he said, you want to make a comment on the UFO thing? He couldn't get anybody to comment. I said, well, sure. I said, they're going to tell you they're going to issue you a report.

181.589 - 198.182 Tim Burchett

And it's going to be loaded and everybody's freaking out. It's going to be the greatest thing. It's going to be total disclosure. And then they're going to put something out. It looked like somebody shot it with a dadgum 12 gauge. It's just going to have holes and it's all redacted. And I said, and they're not going to put it out this week. It'll be weeks later. And that's exactly what they did.

198.622 - 224.488 Tim Burchett

They had a report. I felt like had some... in that was new to the public, and they did what they always do. They hid it, covered it up. And then everybody saw that interview, and I said on it, I said— That's the one where you're talking about bases in the ocean? No, no, no, no, no. A different one. As it is, it's totally different. And this is just out on the street corner.

224.468 - 245.029 Tim Burchett

And then I started getting calls from people literally all over the world. I mean, I've talked to legislators in Russia over this issue. And then people people start just stop me on street corners and say, hey, man, I really appreciate you going for disclosure. I have doctors tell me this. I have lawyers, engineers. I have military people that have seen things that they can't describe.

Chapter 3: How did Burchett's upbringing influence his views on UFOs?

250.297 - 264.388 Tim Burchett

But put it out there to your people. It's over 55 percent of the American population feels like we're not alone. I mean, seriously, you go out there and look at those every night. My dog's. They got to take a leak. They never want to take a leak at like nine o'clock. It's always three o'clock in the morning.

0

264.488 - 285.387 Tim Burchett

I look at those dadgum stars, man, and the light from those stars left there before the time of Christ and the light from some of those stars. The stars have already combusted. I mean, they're not even there anymore. You know, light years to us is something that's hard to understand. And we are more we are just, you know, one grain of sand on a billion beaches.

0

285.928 - 288.31 Tim Burchett

And I still don't think we're the best that God can do.

0

288.29 - 315.748 Tim Burchett

i mean you know i just can't imagine where his shining uh we're the one they put on the mantle oh look he made humans well you know we've kind of screwed things up so i you know and i um and i read my bible and a lot of the christian folks knock me they talk about demons and i say well i'm good with jesus i'm not worrying about demons i'm not going to worry about that i don't think they're demons i don't why would they they don't have to fly around in some craft to

0

315.728 - 340.504 Tim Burchett

You know, it's just, to me, it's hard to imagine. But the underwater thing was, I was getting briefed by, it was a former admiral came into my office. And Joe, it was a very friendly conversation. And I'm always a little couched because, or a little, I hold back a little bit because I think there's a psyop going on with some of these departments.

340.484 - 360.454 Tim Burchett

I was briefed by one of our alphabet agencies not long ago. And the final thing was somebody said, well, why don't we got more information? Says we just don't have the funding for that, Congressman. And, you know, it's a and I know they're reading the polling data and they're saying, you know, well, let's shake loose the money tree for us. And that's that's part of it, too.

360.674 - 377.589 Tim Burchett

And I warn people about that. But anyway. I guess in a nutshell, that's pretty much it. So when you first got in, how long have you been in government for? Well, eight years in Congress. I was in our state legislature in Tennessee 16 years, and then I was county mayor for eight years.

377.81 - 383.136 Unknown

So was it when you got into Congress that you first started getting inside information about what's going on?

383.336 - 392.335 Tim Burchett

Yeah. So was that eight years ago or when was that? Probably six years ago, five or six. Let's see. It was during Trump's first administration. So it would have been about eight years ago.

Chapter 4: What are the implications of government secrecy on UFO information?

779.289 - 790.423 Tim Burchett

And then people say, well, it's ours, Birch. It's just ours. They don't want to raise it. Well, Think about this. President Trump, and he should have, and I give him great credit for that, that pilot that got knocked down over in Iran.

0

790.724 - 805.09 Tim Burchett

We spent untold millions of dollars to bring that cat home, and we should have, because it sends a message to our enemies and it sends a message to our fighting men and women that we're not going to leave you behind, as many presidents have done many times. There's no way on God's green earth

0

805.07 - 830.627 Tim Burchett

that they would risk a half-a-billion-dollar aircraft with something flying around it and risk those guys' life and all that training to put these guys in harm's way. And that's exactly what they're doing. I mean, these things are buzzing cockpits. It's not an everyday occurrence. It's in certain areas, and that's where the— The deep water thing comes in, the deep water bases.

0

830.687 - 856.255 Tim Burchett

I was sort of misquoted. I was just telling what I was told. But it makes a lot of sense that these deep water areas are where we see a lot of sightings. And we've seen craft underwater that do something over 200 miles an hour that are on the sonar pickup are as big as a dadgum football field. And the best we have, we don't have anything big as a football field,

0

856.724 - 881.502 Tim Burchett

Maybe in length, but not underwater anyway. And the best we can do is maybe upper 30 mile an hour, maybe something like that, I don't know. But 200 miles an hour, that's just out of the question. And these things don't have a heat signature. And I hope though that they release some of the footage that we've seen and some that we haven't, that we've been rumored that's out there.

882.103 - 895.666 Tim Burchett

What I'm afraid though, it's gonna get so sanitized and it's going to get cleaned up. I mean, even Obama, he said, yeah, there are aliens out there. And then in a recent interview I saw just last week or so, he's backed up on that. I was just kidding. I was just kidding.

896.427 - 905.98 Unknown

Well, I saw Trump when he was getting interviewed. He said Obama shouldn't have said that because it's classified. He goes, but I might release it. I might make it unclassified.

906.481 - 916.269 Tim Burchett

And I hope he does, and I told him that. I talked to the president about it, and I said, you know, Mr. President, it's like, It's like layers of an onion. You just keep pilling it back. And I hope he does.

916.389 - 918.152 Unknown

Well, he might be the only one that would ever do it.

Chapter 5: What inconsistencies are found in the Warren Commission report?

4918.245 - 4938.469 Tim Burchett

I thought that would have been. But, again, the big boys didn't see fit to put that out. And there we are. Well, just the magic bullet theory alone. Like, shut up. That bullet's ridiculous. Well, that gun is called a Mannlicher carbine. I got one, actually. I think it was 7.62 Italian. It's called the only gun that never won a war.

0

4938.888 - 4954.467 Tim Burchett

You could have gone to a Western Auto and bought an M1 with scopes on it and made a much better shot than that thing. I mean, the whole thing just stinks. And the gun they show holding up and the gun that they had later, you know, the whole thing is just screwy. Screwy. Because we didn't ask questions back then.

0

4954.447 - 4967.021 Unknown

Yeah. Well, no one had information. So what questions could you even ask? And there's a great book on it called Best Evidence by David Lifton. And he was an accountant that was hired to go over the Warren Commission report.

0

Chapter 6: How do witnesses' deaths relate to the Kennedy assassination?

4967.341 - 4984.08 Unknown

And he started finding all these inconsistencies and contradictions in the Warren Commission report. So then he wrote this book on all the different things that are wrong with the Kennedy assassination and all the different things that we've been told that couldn't possibly be true. And it's very disturbing, including how many people that were witnesses that died.

0

4984.701 - 4996.718 Unknown

Witnesses at the scene in, you know, in Dallas that died from weird circumstances and the odds of those people dying, car accidents, suicide, murder, robbery. It's just too strange.

0

4996.738 - 5019.031 Tim Burchett

And people they can't find anymore that were in those pictures, you know. Yeah. They cleaned up a lot of the loose ends. Quick. Yeah. But back then, you know, again, you couldn't ask the question. She didn't have the Internet. Yeah. And now it's. But nobody's even talking about it. You can't get anybody to bring up anything on Trump getting shot. No. Other than they put out it's a fake.

0

5019.772 - 5022.376 Tim Burchett

His ear held itself and all this stuff.

0

5022.757 - 5039.623 Unknown

Listen, his ear was clearly bleeding. He got shot in the ear. You can see the blood come out right away. It's dripping down the side of his face. And the idea that that's a setup, you cannot be that accurate. You definitely can't be that accurate with a red dot at 140 yards. You can hit him. You can definitely hit him center mass. No problem.

5040.184 - 5057.949 Unknown

Maybe even hit him in the head if you're really good and you're prone. But nicking his ear like that on purpose and to be there and say, hey, I just want you to nick my ear just a little piece. There's not a chance that that's a fake. And the guy behind him is dead. So what are you saying? You think that's fake? That's a setup?

5057.97 - 5059.371 Tim Burchett

Yeah, the fireman lost his life.

5059.512 - 5072.835 Unknown

Yeah, that's crazy. The whole thing is crazy. But it's just – This thing where people hate him so much and the narrative in the media, this Trump derangement narrative that you see in the media is so strong and people are so programmed by it.

Chapter 7: What are the implications of media narratives on public perception?

5072.955 - 5092.809 Unknown

And for the average person that has a very involved job, you're working all day and then you have a family and you have a life and you don't have time to really go into depth about what's real and what's not real. And you got that Russia collusion stuff shoved down your throat by mainstream media for years, and you believe all of it. 100%.

0

5092.869 - 5099.178 Unknown

And so you really believed that he's a terrible person, Russian agent, all these different – so you want someone to kill him.

0

5099.198 - 5119.848 Tim Burchett

Yeah, there's a group of folks, young folks that are starting to ask some questions. Yes. You know, my wife's son, Tyler, he lives on the farm there with us, and he's been asking me – inquisitive questions because he doesn't buy it. And a lot of those kids in that generation, I don't know if it's the Charlie Kirk effect. I don't know what that is.

0

5120.049 - 5137.613 Unknown

That has a definitely effect on it because a lot of people don't buy that story either. But it's also the Internet. The Internet has there's enough independent reporters out there that are untied, independent journalists that are untied to any organization that has a narrative they're supposed to push. And they're uncovering real information that's screwy.

0

5137.853 - 5138.053 Tim Burchett

Right.

5138.194 - 5139.155 Unknown

It doesn't make any sense.

5139.696 - 5156.614 Tim Burchett

Well, and also when they do, though, they get They get trounced upon by the so-called mainstream media. Of course. But their numbers, I mean, my gosh, I read somewhere the amount of that. the amount of media or the amount of information people get from the mainstream media is just diminishing.

5156.835 - 5171.752 Unknown

Well, COVID sunk them. The way they handled COVID and the way they carried water for the pharmaceutical drug industry. Oh, shit. And Fauci. Yeah, Fauci, and now he's going to walk. Is he going to walk? Because there's some talk about him possibly being set up for perjury, but there's only a week to go.

5171.772 - 5175.897 Tim Burchett

Yeah, there's a week to go. I just don't... He'll get a stern letter from somebody in Washington.

Chapter 8: How does the discussion shift to UFOs and government secrecy?

5176.398 - 5194.681 Tim Burchett

Oh. That drives me crazy, man. I saw, you know, the big boys, you go down to the... the big hardware chain and they were allowing people to go in, but they closed down the little local ones and they closed the churches and the synagogues and everybody down. And then we just all got in line. They just ring the bell. We're like Pavlov's dog. And we just all got in line.

0

5194.701 - 5203.056 Tim Burchett

I remember at my hospital in Knoxville, one of them, I came out there and, you know, to get tested, I got tested. I can't tell you how many times I got tested and I never tested positive.

0

5203.076 - 5221.243 Tim Burchett

I've never took the vaccine or any of that, but I can remember coming out there and they had these, um, morgues they were setting up just in anticipation of, of what, and I just thought, man, this is, if this doesn't work out, this is the ultimate psyop because people are going to get rich off this crazy thing. And they did, you know, we, um,

0

5221.223 - 5222.786 Unknown

Greatest transfer of wealth ever.

0

5222.806 - 5228.515 Tim Burchett

Unbelievably. Unbelievably, yeah. And Congress just did it. We just did it and didn't ask any questions.

5228.756 - 5234.666 Unknown

Well, it seems like there's a real pandemic right now on this cruise ship, you know, about that Hentavirus? Yeah. That seems really crazy.

5234.686 - 5241.898 Tim Burchett

And ticks. Watch that thing. The tick thing is nuts. Yeah, because of meat, because of gates. Uh-huh.

5241.878 - 5264.023 Unknown

Well, there's boxes people are finding, and I don't know if this is true because I've seen many reports on it, but I'm just going to say what I saw, that farmers and ranchers are finding boxes of ticks on their property. Now, I don't know if that's fake. I don't know if someone's setting that up to pretend they found these boxes of ticks, but there's videos of these people finding boxes of ticks.

5264.143 - 5276.497 Tim Burchett

Now, what they'll say is they'll probably say they're sterile ticks and that we're planting them out there so we can diminish the population. That's what they'll say. But anytime they try to mess with the balance of nature, it never goes right.
