Matt Gaetz claimed a uniformed US Army officer briefed him on secret hybrid breeding programs.
“Matt Gaetz made the remarks during a March 31 appearance on The Benny Show”
The interaction took place in a non-classified setting with staff present.
The whistleblower wanted members of Congress to visit facilities simultaneously.
Gaetz conceded he never verified the claims.
Scope and Origins of Program
Gaetz said the humans involved had been abducted from war zones and caravans of migrants.
There were six to 12 locations around the country where the program operated.
The Trump administration had been publicly engaging with the extraterrestrial topic.
The timing coincided with April Fools' Day in Australia.
Congressional and Public Reaction
Questions were raised about why Gaetz did not share the information while in office.

The Atlantic Council described the approach as a major shift.
A Reuters/Ipsos poll found only 27% of Americans approved.
