Summary

Army Capt. Rebecca M. Lobach, a highly accomplished pilot and top 20% ROTC cadet, was among 67 killed when her Black Hawk helicopter collided with an American Airlines jet near Washington, D.C.

Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth blamed “DEI” for the crash despite no official cause being determined.

Lobach had 450+ flight hours and numerous military honors.

    Firehose* of disinformation, which is par for the course.

    The complicit media companies rush to cover every absurdity he spouts, thereby passively covers up the fact that his own rushed policies are likely the ultimate culprit of this crash!

    His federal worker hiring freeze, and forcing the head of the FAA to resign/step down apparently led to there only being 1 flight controller in the tower; where there needed to be a minimum of 2.

    So Trump falls back on his usual strategy of deny early, deny often, deny 100 ways.

    …and y’all less than one month into his 48(+?) month term.
