Representative Eric Burlison, a Missouri Republican, has discussed videos he said he had viewed involving unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) during a recent podcast appearance.
Congressional attention to such phenomena grew following a 2023 House hearing in which former Air Force intelligence officer David Grusch suggested the government had concealed information about UAPs.
The topic drew headlines again recently following comments from former President Barack Obama, who told political commentator Brian Tyler Cohen “they’re real” when asked about aliens—though he immediately clarified that he had never seen them himself and dismissed the notion that they were being kept at Area 51.
Shortly afterward, President Donald Trump announced he would be directing Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth to start identifying and releasing government files pertaining to unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and aliens.
Speaking on his Fresh Freedom podcast, Burlison said, “I have seen videos of objects. I can't tell you exactly what they are—I say that because I'm saying I saw it and I can't tell what they are and neither could the people that filmed them. It’s something that’s wild like, you know defies logic, the way in which they operate.”
