Rep. Tim Burchett on UFOs: ‘Yeah, I think there’s a cover up’ (thehill.com)

Saw this on reddit. I still remain kind of skeptical but think all this is really interesting.

His comment that he has conversations where they're all saying the public "can't handle" whatever it is, is something I think about a lot.

With my cynacism i feel that we, the public, kind of are just cattle to the elites and super wealthy. Our purpose is to work and to buy stuff, which is the foundation to their wealth and power. Much better to keep us as dumb and ignorant as possible. Such a huge portion of the public is obsessed with celebrity gossip, sports, religious nonsense, etc.

A full disclosure that intelligent alien species exist and are here, would either be painful and debilitating to a large portion of people (fundamentalist religious people, the world over), or change other people to start thinking at a higher level other than just celebrity and sports shit, or how to get money to buy the next new gadget or token of status.

If people start thinking, we've been being lied to by those in power, what else is there? Why does Kim Kardashian deserve to be a billionaire, when millions of children die of starvation every year? Why does someone have to work 40hrs a week in a factory doing manual labor that could be easily automated by AI or robotics (because it's cheaper for the human to do it), etc., etc.

My comment might be tangent from the UFO topic, but it's what I think of why they don't want to disclose, or at least a possibility.

I think it's fair to call out bad faith politics, but the current UAP push is bipartisan. I don't care for any of his political stances outside what he's aided with for UAP disclosure, but he's helped a lot with bringing the topic to light.

I find it interesting that you think the topic is relevant enough to the public that this is the only reason he's engaged. Do you believe the time he's invested in this will get more people to vote for him? Personally, I would never vote for someone based on their stance on UAP, nor do I think it'd sway me if I was on the fence.
