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.

    To me, it seems like it was steady refinement from at least Nixon all the way to today. Jair always being as shitty as they can get away with.

      Well sure. If we go back far enough, we can just blame Washington. But I don’t think these TikTok zoomers voting Trump because “egg prices” have any idea who Nixon was or what he was about. If you told Nixon that was going to be a voting block for him, he would roll over in his grave, make a martini, break a Beatles album, curse heaven and earth, then roll over and die again.
