    smashed into a military Blackhawk helicopter

    Speaking from DC there’s way the fuck too many low-flying helicopters around here. If it’s indeed a blackhawk it’s probably some military bigwig going to or from the pentagon a mile away.

      I’m pretty pissed that an army blackhawk was anywhere near a commercial jet’s flightpath. Who do these moron army pilots and pentagon bigwig dickheads think they are? Our government has been a crooked clownshow for a while now but now its the military as well? If everyone on the helicopter wasnt already dead I’d be looking for some jail time for the helicopter people. Heck of a job.

      And Vances response is an ask for everyone to “say a prayer?” Is that some sort of joke? What an arsehole.

          As if Congress wouldn’t already be having hearings if Biden was still president. If it happens on Trump’s watch, then it’s Trump’s fault until proven otherwise. Some people don’t get the benefit of the doubt.
