Breaking News. Plane crash in DC. Collided with either helicopter or drone over Potomac.

[amethyst]

And how is it that a blogger can report better news than the rest all together. I knew how many were in the plane, how many were recovered at the time, saw the crash before many, and heard both cockpit and recovery communication long before Fox and CNN reported it.

No Leadership at the FAA thanks to Donald Trump and Elon Musk. We all know this leads to poor morale and affects work efficiency. I'd say it affects safety in a government run organization like the FAA. Then there is the issue of morale and the confusion within the military after Trump issued some bizarre executive orders targeting most all of our government. Trump also brought in un-elected private sector weirdos like Elon Musk (guy is weird - no one can deny it - just watch him speak and move around as if on something).

Evidence:

Michael Whitaker, the head of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), resigned on January 20, 2025, amid significant pressure from Elon Musk, who publicly called for his resignation. ​

​

Whitaker’s departure marks a pivotal moment for the FAA, which is now left without a Senate-confirmed leader during a critical period for the agency.​

​

Elon Musk 'pressured' FAA boss to quit one week before Potomac river plane crash​

During the press conference the Transportation Secretary and DC Fire Chief refused to answer the question​

FAA Administrator Quit on Jan. 20 After Elon Musk Told Him to Resign​

Looking for blame like people were doing with the LA Fires. Well, thank you for allowing me an opportunity to start some blame game off, right here @ usmb.

A dumb ass post. The FAA has been a rotten and corrupt organization for the last 5 years when it pushed those clot shots. Trump had nothing to do with it.

My oh my, one of the house trolls has arrived attempting to deflect from the OP by making personal attacks..

lol.....i cant believe you said that....

 

[Dante]

Watching live….
Each speaker is jumping in to condemn DEI for the collision

Trump just said…..”It could have been the reason” We don’t know.

What is their response going to be if it turns out the pilots and Air Traffic controllers were white males?

His

"It could have been...”

bullshit.

There is no Trump 2.0. It's the same old, pathetic, angry, hateful old man.

with no link son, he had no basis for his accusation. If he has no link it's open season

 

[airplanemechanic]

How far apart were they supposed to be at that point?

That depends. If the heli was VFR its see and avoid. Basically, just don't him 'em. Like he hit 'em.

Trump starts News conference with a moment of silence then quickly shifts to blaming Obama and Biden DEI standards

There is no evidence of who the air traffic controllers were or if they made any mistakes. Our President quickly uses it as an excuse to blame Democrats, Biden and DEI policies

<link coming>

It would have been nice to see him for once just stick with that this was a tragedy and we're investigating instead of going on and on about Obama and Biden, Jesus Christ even Vance and Pete H is looking at him thinking WTF.

Standards have eroded so much under the extreme left. Wokeness and DEI have permeated government agencies so thoroughly, it's only reasonable to ask whether this laxity had something to do with this tragedy. Democrats do not put in the most qualified people in ANY position.

 

[Dante]

The President must be a shit for brains.

People are grieving, so the President makes it political.

What an ass.

LA Fires?

He's always been this way. He's always seen himself as the Troll-in-Chief.

We have seen this coming. Their guilt would be shielded by outrageous nonsense. Thread:

FAA Under Siege - Do Trump and Musk Bear Some Responsibility For DC Plane Collision With US Army Helicopter​

 

[debbiedowner]

Right out of the gate they are Shifting blame.

FAA Under Siege - Do Trump and Musk Bear Some Responsibility For DC Plane Collision With US Army Helicopter​

Looks like it may just be the case

Of course it was the DEI hire

 

[Hollie]

The video looked like the helicopter ran into the plane. Maybe Biden's helicopter training concentrated more on diversity than flying.

Maybe a tranny pilot looking in the mirror doing hair and makeup?

It does seem on a lengthy audio I heard that one of the tower people is having a hard time getting his words out.

you and him have a lot in common....both talk a lot....old....pathetic....angry...and last but not least.....hateful old man....a lot alike dante....

This is what Trump Administration will be like for the coming 4 years.

When he dies in office it will continue under Vance.

/—-/ What a refreshing change. The president at the podium answering questions from the press. No notes, no teleprompter and no BS.

You are always complaining

 

[westwall]

Another dingbat

How do you protect fellow citizens against prejudicial hiring practices where equally good candidates get sidelined because of prejudices against say skin color, country of origin, sex, disabilities and so on?

There are already laws on the books to prevent that.

What you DON'T do is lower the requirements for any particular job so that unqualified can get those jobs.

That's what DEI does do.

What about the lives of US military?
