Congressman warns about undersea "entities"

Did Congressman Tim Burchett (R-TN) really say this? All I see referenced is a video making the rounds on social media and in this current era of technology, I'm unsure how well we can trust that.

"What if, these are entities that are here on this earth, that have been on this earth for who knows how long, and we think they're coming from way out," he says while strolling along the streets of DC, the Capital rotunda glowing in the distance. "Maybe they did a millennia ago, but they're here, and they're in these deep water areas."

"Like we say, we know more about the face of the Moon than we know what's going on there [the ocean]," Burchett continues. "We have a higher propensity of sightings around these five or six — I believe — deep water areas. It creates a question there."

I am thinking a certain U.S. Representative has been out in the sun too long.
