The Question Must Be Asked – Was It A Suicide Mission?

As I mentioned in another article, I have several thousand hours in high-performance rotary-wing aircraft flying for a Tier One Special Operations unit.

Mid-air collisions do happen.

In my experience, they typically happen on a no-moon night with very low visibility while on night-vision googles, during low visibility in bad weather, while flying in close formation, or when one aircraft makes a violent movement and a close-by aircraft cannot move in time to avoid a collision.

In fact, I am not aware of a collision where an aircraft is on a straight flight path, for a long time, on a clear night, and hits another aircraft essentially flying at the same altitude with massive landing and navigation lights illuminated.

There were two pilots and a crew chief on board. The crew chief’s job is to scan for other aircraft when he’s not busy.

The co-pilot should have also been scanning constantly (DC is a busy operational area and any well-trained crew would be doing so).

I think the question at least needs to be investigated as to whether this was a suicide crash.

We have motive – President Trump’s election and the malicious media narrative that he was going to literally ‘kill gay people’ or put them in prison.

Today the Blackhawk helicopter’s pilot-in-command was identified as Captain Rebecca Lobach.

An apparent lesbian who attended pride events, as the family’s statement seems to have confirmed, would be especially cognizant of the President’s order to remove transgenders from the military.

Then there is the political angle, as Captain Lobach literally worked inside the Biden White House.

A proper investigation would reveal if there were any signs Captain Lobach was upset over developments and political change in America.

How Come We Don’t Know What Started the Palisades Fire Yet?

From the beginning, theories about what started the Pacific Palisades fire in Los Angeles were centered on only a couple of possibilities. Those theories haven’t changed. So why is there a blackout on what caused the fire? 

In the Eaton Fire, which torched Altadena and parts of Pasadena, a video of a Ring camera showed an electric arc from a high-tension power line that convinced many that they’d seen the origin of that devastating fire. The investigation into the cause of that fire continues, according to CalFire.  

Both the Eaton and Palisades fires are nearly completely contained and fortunately, two atmospheric rivers are blowing in this weekend to help put out the rest of the flames that may still be smoldering.

So now that we’re entering the clean-up and rebuilding phase. It’s time to find out what started the fire that wiped out an upscale swath of Palisades homes on 23,000 acres, which is nearly twice the size of Manhattan.

A team of 16 arson investigators with the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives has been investigating since nearly the beginning of the outbreak, according to the L.A. Times. They’re working with specialists throughout the country. One thing they agree on: the fire was most certainly started by human hand. But how?

Name Of Female Blackhawk Pilot Not Yet Released, Spurring Social Media Theories

Social media has erupted over theories the deceased female pilot of the UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter that crashed into a commercial jet near Reagan National airport in Washington, DC was a transgender pilot.

Sources tell AFP this rumor is untrue, and the deceased Blackhawk driver was indeed a woman.

However, the name of the female pilot has not been released.

In addition, a video is making its way around the internet of an ADSB readout showing erratic moves of the helicopter towards other aircraft prior to the crash. Since the Blackhawk usually is not equipped with ADSB, we also cannot confirm this video and readers should be suspect as to its authenticity.

Weird! Lockheed Martin Boasted Of Remote Blackhawk Helicopter Technology Three Months Before Tragic DC Aerial Disaster

The internet is buzzing with rumors and speculation following the tragic airplane and helicopter crash in Washington D.C. Wednesday.

An American Airlines passenger jet and Army Black Hawk helicopter collided around 9 p.m. Eastern near Reagan National Airport, causing both aircraft to fall into the Potomac River where 67 people died according to officials.

In the aftermath of the disaster, a video went viral showing top U.S. military contractor Lockheed Martin advertising technology that allows Black Hawk helicopters to be flown autonomously.

During the October 2024 Association of the United States Army National Convention, the “Black Hawk of the future” was advertised by Sikorsky Vice President Richard Benton.

Stephanie Hill, the president of Rotary and Mission Systems boasted the technology would allow the military to “fly this optimally piloted autonomous Black Hawk in Connecticut from three hundred miles away right here in Washington D.C.”

With the push of a button on an iPad, Hill commanded the helicopter to take off and simulate “tested logistic operations.”

The Lockheed video said its “MATRIX flight autonomy system” will deliver the future of flight.

According to the U.S. Army, the UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter that crashed into the American Airlines flight was engaged in a training flight carrying three soldiers from “Bravo Company, 12th Aviation Battalion, out of Davison Army Airfield, Fort Belvoir.”

Is it possible the new autonomous tech was being tested during the flight or that the aircraft was somehow hacked?

Indiana Police Refuse FOIA Request for Video Evidence in Shooting of January 6th Patriot by Sheriff’s Deputy

As reported earlier, a J6 political prisoner pardoned by Trump was killed by an Indiana police officer over the weekend.

FOX 32 Chicago reported at 4:15 p.m. local time Sunday that 42-year-old Matthew W. Huttle of Hobart, Indiana, was stopped by a Jasper County sheriff’s deputy during a traffic stop near the Pulaski County line.  Police say the deputy attempted to arrest Huttle after stopping him, but the civilian resisted.

The officer responded by firing his weapon and killing Huttle following a supposed fight.

Investigative journalist Yehuda Miller and The Gateway Pundit reached out to Jasper County Sheriff Williamson following the news of the deadly shooting. We FOIAed video of the incident from the police cameras.

Sheriff Williamson told us that because this was an open investigation, he would not release the footage!

The video will only be released when the investigation is completed.

“This is an open investigation by the Indiana State Police. In the near future when this investigation has been completed, we will provide video footage via our Jasper County Sheriff Website for you to view,” Sheriff Williamson told Miller.

White House reveals Trump explanation for NJ drones — and raises even more questions

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Tuesday that the drones that spooked New Jersey residents last month were “not the enemy,” reading aloud President Trump’s assessment that many were doing “research” — an assertion that generated new questions.

“After research and study, the drones that were flying over New Jersey in large numbers were authorized to be flown by the FAA for research and various other reasons,” Leavitt said, reading Trump’s dictation at her first briefing.

“Many of these drones were also hobbyists, recreational and private individuals that enjoy flying drones. In time, it got worse due to curiosity. This was not the enemy.”

The explanation did not clarify what research was being performed — in many cases near military bases — or detail what “other reasons” were at play.

Some leading politicians have been skeptical of the official explanation that the drones were innocent.

Mysterious drones spotted in Ohio skies, again

People who live in Mercer County have been left puzzled following a series of mysterious drone sightings over the past few nights. Sheriff Doug Timmerman confirmed that his office is actively investigating the incidents and working closely with federal and local law enforcement to identify the origin and operators of the drones.

According to Sheriff Timmerman, the Mercer County Sheriff’s Office is collaborating with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the FBI, and local law enforcement in nearby counties, including those across the Indiana border. Despite these efforts, the purpose of the drones and their operators remains unknown.

“Our office is aware of the significant number of drone sightings, and we are taking this matter seriously,” said Sheriff Timmerman in a statement. “We are committed to identifying who is behind these flights and ensuring the safety of our community.”

The Sheriff’s Office is calling on Mercer County residents to assist in the investigation by sharing any information or video footage of the drones. Citizens who capture footage are encouraged to submit it via the Mercer Sheriff Facebook page and provide the specific location where the video was taken. “For safety reasons, we strongly advise against trying to confront or follow these drones,” the Sheriff’s Office said.

Questions Raised After Pardoned J6 Protester Fatally Shot During Traffic Stop

Matthew W. Huttle, a 42-year-old J6 protester who was pardoned by President Donald Trump last week, was fatally shot by an Indiana police officer during a traffic stop near the Pulaski County line, reports FOX32 Chicago.

The incident has sparked outrage and suspicion among those who view Huttle’s death as part of a larger pattern of targeting Trump supporters and J6 protesters.  

According to local law enforcement, Huttle resisted arrest during the traffic stop, leading to an altercation in which the officer fired his weapon, killing him. 

“An altercation took place between the suspect and the officer, which resulted in the officer firing his weapon and fatally wounding the suspect,” the Jasper County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.

The officer, whose name has not yet been released, is currently on paid administrative leave, as per protocol. Jasper County Sheriff Patrick Williamson has requested an investigation by the Indiana State Police, promising transparency in the process. In a statement, Sheriff Williamson expressed condolences to Huttle’s family, saying, “Our condolences go out to the family of the deceased as any loss of life is traumatic to those that were close to Mr. Huttle. I will release the officer’s name once I have approval from the State Police Detectives.”

The timing of Huttle’s death, coming so soon after his pardon, has led to speculation about whether this was a tragic coincidence or something more sinister.

‘Neo-Nazi’ Indian Immigrant Sentenced to 8 Years For Renting U-Haul Truck to Attack White House – But the Story Doesn’t Add Up

In May 2023, Sai Varshith Kandula, a young Indian migrant living in Chesterfield, Missouri, drove a U-Haul truck and attempted to ram his way through a White House barrier. His plot failed and police arrested him.  Police investigators then pulled an apparent Nazi flag from a U-Haul truck after the crash near the White House and laid it on the street for photographers. 

It was a white supremacist attack!

As Kristinn Taylor reported — Eyewitnesses say the truck was driven twice into a barrier before stopping. The incident took place at the north side of Lafayette Park at 16th and H St, NW. Police laid out the flag on the sidewalk near the truck, apparently for the media to film, before folding it up and taking it away.

Of course, the story was suspicious from the get-go. The only thing they found in the truck was a Nazi flag? This was too convenient for Joe Biden and the FBI’s narrative of the dreaded white supremacist threat in America. It smelled like another fed operation.

After the feds dropped all of the serious charges against Sai Varshith Kandula, 20, he was sentenced on Thursday to 96 months in federal prison for his attempted attack on the White House, the DOJ said in a press release.

“Kandula pleaded guilty on May 13, 2024, to a charge of willful injury or depredation of property of the United States before U.S. District Court Judge Dabney L. Friedrich. Kandula is an Indian national who was born in Chandanagar, India. At the time of the incident, he was a lawful permanent resident of the U.S. with a green card. In addition to the prison term, Judge Friedrich ordered Kandula to serve three years of supervised release,” the DOJ said.

The story just doesn’t add up.

Why Was the Reservoir Supplying Pacific Palisades Empty?

There’s a funny scene in the film Smokey and the Bandit when Sheriff Buford T. Justice tells his son “Junior” to hand over his service revolver so that he can use it to shoot the fleeing Bandit’s tires. Junior obeys his father and hands over his pistol, but to Buford’s chagrin, the hammer falls on an empty chamber. When Buford asks why his son’s pistol isn’t loaded, Junior replies, “When I put bullets in it, daddy, it gets too heavy.”

I was reminded of this scene when I saw the news that the Santa Inez Reservoir, supplying backup water to Pacific Palisades, was empty during the fires.

Coincidentally, last April I attended a garden party in Pacific Palisades. The back patio of the magnificent (and now incinerated) home commanded a sweeping view of the hills, including the reservoir, and I noticed that the 117-million-gallon water storage facility was empty.

Note the cover in the above photograph from 2022. The rationale for the cover—the construction of which was completed in 2012—was to comply with EPA regulations.

Does it really take almost a year to repair a water tank’s cover? Or—following the same weird logic that Junior applied to leaving his revolver unloaded—did whoever is in charge of LA’s auxiliary water supply conclude that filling the reservoir would make the structure too wet?

As was just reported in the Los Angeles Times:

Gov. Gavin Newsom on Friday ordered an independent investigation of the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power over the loss of water pressure and the empty Santa Ynez Reservoir, calling it “deeply troubling.”

“We need answers to how that happened,” Newsom said in a letter to leaders of DWP and L.A. County Public Works.

DWP spokesperson Ellen Cheng said, “We appreciate the Governor’s letter and believe that an investigation will help identify any new needed capabilities for water systems to support fighting wildfires.”
