U.S. Congressman: Releasing the alien briefing will cause chaos in the country; the disappearance or death of five top scientists in the past two years may be related to this.

Is there a common clue behind the AI question: the disappearance of five scientists?

A Republican lawmaker in the United States recently revealed that if Americans received the same confidential briefings about aliens as he did, the entire country would fall into chaos. Reports say that over the past two years, several individuals involved in advanced technology research have died or gone missing in the U.S.

The lawmaker stated that the only link between these events is that these scientists all work on extraterrestrial-related projects.

Shocking statement from the American lawmaker:

If I reveal what I’ve seen, you won’t be able to sleep

Tennessee State Representative Tim Burchett is a member of the “Make America Great Again” movement. Recently, during a TV interview, he was asked about “aliens.” Burchett responded, “Almost all intelligence officials have briefed me. I can only tell you, if I reveal what I’ve seen, you definitely won’t sleep well, and you’ll be worried about these things.”

Burchett also said that two weeks ago he received another briefing, and if the public heard everything he heard, “I think this country would fall into chaos.” He then called for the government to fully declassify alien life records and said he’s “had enough.” He claimed he pressured Trump to increase transparency regarding related information and expressed frustration with bureaucratic obstacles blocking disclosure.

In February this year, Trump directed the Pentagon and federal agencies to release records related to UFOs (Unidentified Flying Objects) and UAPs (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena). So far, nothing has been made public, but the U.S. government registered the domain “Aliens.gov” earlier this month (Aliens meaning extraterrestrials).

Burchett also mentioned the disappearances or deaths of several American scientists and military officials over the past two years. He said he’s not sure what exactly happened. “There are no coincidences in this circle,” he stated. “These people either go missing or die mysteriously, and the only thing linking them is that they all work on extraterrestrial projects… Overall, I believe there’s a connection, but I don’t think we’ll ever know the truth.”

Retired Air Force Major General Mysteriously Disappears

Left home with only a gun

On February 27, this year, retired U.S. Air Force Major General William McCasland left his home in the morning and has not been seen since. He left his phone, glasses, and wearable devices at home but took a gun with him.

After his disappearance, police dispatched helicopters equipped with infrared cameras to fly over nearby cliffs and canyons, hoping to find him via thermal imaging, but to no avail. His wife told the police that he might have deliberately gone missing and didn’t want anyone to find him, as his phone was turned off.

McCasland is an aerospace engineer with degrees from the U.S. Air Force Academy, MIT, and Harvard Kennedy School. He has held several high-level, sensitive military positions but has been retired for nearly 13 years.

He once led the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio. Rumors suggest that debris from a UFO crash and “alien bodies” in New Mexico were secretly transported to that base and stored in the so-called “Hangar 18” for research. An informant previously said McCasland is a “gatekeeper” and “participant” in the UFO enthusiast community.

However, the U.S. Air Force has always denied these claims, emphasizing that the base has never stored any alien technology or biological material, and that many stories are misunderstandings or fabrications. Nonetheless, the base did oversee the famous “Project Blue Book,” which investigated over ten thousand UFO sightings. Officially, the U.S. government states there’s no evidence linking these phenomena to alien spacecraft.

Analysts point out that the “alien” rumors surrounding the base largely stem from its central role in aviation technology intelligence and secret projects, combined with its high level of confidentiality, making it a focal point for various UFO conspiracy theories.

McCasland’s wife, Susan, said her husband had briefly interacted with the UFO research community but that this was not the reason for his disappearance. She also stated that McCasland has no knowledge of the alien debris stored at Wright-Patterson.

Five Top U.S. Researchers

Mysterious disappearances or deaths in the past two years

Besides McCasland, four other individuals involved in advanced nuclear and aerospace research have gone missing or died in recent years, attracting attention. They include senior rocket engineers, retired generals, lab staff, and top scientists. They either suddenly vanished without a trace or died under mysterious circumstances.

▲NASA scientist Frank Mewald

On July 4, 2024, NASA scientist Frank Mewald died in Los Angeles at age 61. His death initially drew little public attention, but later, due to the cause of death not being disclosed and reports that no autopsy was performed, doubts arose. During his lifetime, he was dedicated to developing technologies for detecting extraterrestrial life.

On May 4, 2025, former Los Alamos National Laboratory employee Antonio Chavez disappeared while walking in New Mexico. As one of the most sensitive U.S. research institutions, Los Alamos’s work often involves nuclear science, national security, and classified technologies. No confirmed sightings have occurred since, and the case remains unsolved.

On June 22, 2025, Monica J. Razo, a senior engineer in aerospace, disappeared while hiking in California. She was a leading figure in advanced rocket propulsion materials, having helped invent a nickel-based high-temperature alloy for next-generation engines aimed at reducing reliance on current propulsion systems. Search efforts with helicopters, drones, and rescue dogs have failed to locate her.

Just four days after Razo’s disappearance, Melissa Casius, also from Los Alamos, went missing. Witnesses saw her walking alone on a highway miles from home. Her phone was found at the scene, but all data had been wiped. She reportedly left home without any essentials besides her phone.

In February this year, McCasland, who has ties to Los Alamos, also went missing. He was once the research commander at Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico, which had close cooperation with Los Alamos on national security projects.

Among these cases, the most perplexing is Monica Razo’s disappearance. As a senior aerospace engineer deeply involved in cutting-edge propulsion and materials science, her work intersects innovation and national security. She was last seen acting normally but vanished within minutes, with the area thoroughly searched and no physical evidence found.
