GOP lawmaker vows to get 'loud' over unfulfilled Trump promise
Source: Raw Story · Bias: Far Left
Summary
More than a month has gone by since President Donald Trump’s pledge to release government files on "alien and extraterrestrial life,” and one GOP lawmaker is vowing to get “loud” should the Trump administration continue to drag its feet.On Feb. 19, Trump announced that he had directed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and other federal agencies to “begin the process of identifying and releasing” government files related to aliens, UFOs and “any and all other information connected to these highly complex, but extremely interesting and important, matters.”On Wednesday, the Trump administration quietly registered a new federal government website domain: “Aliens.gov,” though as of Friday, the website has not yet been launched.The wait has apparently been difficult for Rep. Eric Burlison (R-MO), however, who told NOTUS Friday that, should there be no movement on Trump’s promise soon, he planned to “get a little bit more loud about it.”A member of the House Oversight Committee, Burlison said he’s pressed the Trump administration to disclose federal government files on unexplained phenomena since at least early 2025.“I’ve been asking the White House for this to be done since Trump entered into office,” Burlison told Missourinet last month after Trump’s initial announcement. “I’m not one that believes that there’s little green men from another planet, but I can’t deny the fact that there’s a lot of video evidence of objects that we have no idea what they are, but we know that they’re not us.”Burlison’s interest in the unexplained phenomena raised eyebrows last year after comments he made suggesting he believed in the existence of giant humans resurfaced last August. Those comments were made during an interview with BlazeTV, where he also spoke at length about “angels” potentially explaining supposed alien sightings.
