Why Rep. Eric Burlison Believes Key UAP Evidence Remains Hidden | Reality Check

from Reality Check with Ross Coulthart · host Ross Coulthart

In a one-on-one interview with NewsNation's Joe Khalil, Missouri Rep. Eric Burlison discusses his push for greater transparency regarding closely held government secrets about unidentified anomalous phenomena, or UAPs.Burlison, a member of the House Oversight Committee, argues that while the current administration has gained momentum on disclosure, the material released so far is "low-hanging fruit" because some of it had already been leaked or debunked.Burlison says the focus has shifted to the private sector because he believes companies and individuals possess videos, files and other UAP-related materials that have not been made public.He also discusses footage of "glowing orbs" that appear to defy conventional aerodynamics and explains his theory on why previous administrations kept the information secret.Chapter List: 0:00 - Introduction 0:47- Roadblocks on the Disclosure Front & New Momentum2:50 - The Fight Against Private Contractors 4:53 - SCIFs & Unreleased Footage 7:40 - Who’s Keeping the Door Closed & Why ?8:32 - Filmmakers and “The Age of Disclosure”11:40 - Moving Forward: What Burlinson Wants To See Credits:Host: Ross CoulthartCorrespondent: Joe KhalilExecutive Producer: Andy GipsonEditorial Producer: Meagan OuradaAssociate Producer: Mekhi RhodesResearch Producer: Rob JonesEditor: Anthony DiasioOn "Reality Check," NewsNation Special Correspondent Ross Coulthart takes a fact-based approach to tackle everything from unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) to mysteries often missing from the headlines.
