Lawmaker said a classified briefing didn’t bring him closer to the truth about aliens

WASHINGTON — Rep. Eric Burlison wants to know the truth about aliens. In his first term in Congress, the Missouri Republican is pushing the federal government to reveal more about unidentified aerial phenomenon, the new term for what used to be called UFOs.

But in an interview with The Star after he received a classified briefing about UAPs on Friday, Burlison said he’s no closer to answering the big questions he had before entering Congress.

“There’s nothing that’s been said that’s changed my worldview,” Burlison said.
