Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., revealed the chilling warning he received from someone connected to the Trump administration after pushing for UFO disclosure during a new episode of "Hang Out with Sean Hannity."
"It was another Saturday. I was sitting at the house, and I got a call from, I’ll just say, a friend of the administration," the congressman said.
"He said I had kicked a hornet’s nest. They said, ‘You need to get bodies around you.’ And I’m in East Tennessee. I’ve got bodies around me. There are enough good ol’ boys out there… We have kicked a virtual hornet’s nest, and these people don’t want this stuff out."
UFO disclosure activist Luis Elizondo told "Hang Out with Sean Hannity" he received a similar threat, claiming there were discussions to "eliminate" him during a classified congressional briefing.
Elizondo said he received two separate calls from staffers who had just gotten out of the briefing who were worried about him and whistleblower David Grusch.

"He says, ‘I was in a meeting where government officials had told myself and other staff… that there was a plan at one point, a discussion, to eliminate you and Grusch,’" Elizondo told host Sean Hannity.
"I received another call from a different staffer. The first thing he said was, ‘Lou, are you okay?" I said, ‘Yeah, I'm fine. Why?’ He’s like, ‘You really need to watch yourself because there were discussions involving you and Grusch. Some people were very upset with what you guys did,’" he added.
Burchett went on to claim the U.S. government limits Americans' access to government information by transferring classified UFO documents to private companies.
"We've come to find out they turn it over to a private entity, like one of our missile defense contractors. There’s probably five or six of them," the congressman said.

"What they do is they give it to these corporations so that you and I can't get to it through FOIA, the Freedom of Information Act," he continued. "I can FOIA Ford Motor Company, but they don't have to answer me."
The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) allows citizens to request access to federal agency records as a way to ensure government transparency.
By transferring UFO documents to private entities, Burchett argued the government can prevent the public from accessing the information.

As for President Donald Trump, Burchett said he was told in a secure environment that the commander-in-chief was on a "need-to-know" basis when it came to alien life.
"Someone is making a unilateral decision in our government not to inform the president," Elizondo added.
