Washington Mid-Air Disaster: The Black Hawk Cover-Up?

A devastating mid-air collision over Washington, D.C. on Wednesday night has rocked our nation. Sixty-four innocent airline passengers and three U.S. Army pilots lost their lives in one of the worst aviation disasters in recent history. But the real shock may be what happened after the crash.

Here’s the breakdown: a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter and a PSA/American Airlines passenger jet collided while the jet was on its final approach to Reagan National Airport. Every single passenger and crew member on that commercial flight was killed. It’s a tragedy that should never be forgotten.

Two of the three Army pilots were identified quickly:

• Staff Sgt. Ryan Austin O’Hara, 28
• Chief Warrant Officer 2 Andrew Loyd Eaves, 39

But when it came to Capt. Rebecca Lobach, things took a strange turn. The Army held her identification until Saturday, claiming it was due to the family’s wishes. In that time, her entire online presence was scrubbed clean. Yes – her social media footprint and even her family members’ accounts were erased. Why? What are they hiding?

They deleted Rebecca Lobach’s social media accounts before releasing her name. It wasn’t to grieve.

It is not just that Rebecca Lobach is gone from social media, both her sisters and parents were scrubbed as well. This sister had a LinkedIn and an X which you can see clearly on Google, but the pages are gone. Another sister has a Pinterest account that’s been scrubbed as well.… pic.twitter.com/HTtR3GUcQW

Now, here’s where things get even murkier. Unlike the other pilots, Lobach worked in the Biden White House. She served as a military social aide, a prestigious role that involves assisting at high-level government events like state dinners and VIP visits. A photo even surfaced of her standing in the White House press briefing room.

But there’s a twist: Lobach had only 450 flight hours. For a mission that involved a “continuity of government” training flight—a classified exercise meant for crisis-time government operations—this is a red flag. Was she really chosen based on her skills, or was there political favoritism at play? When you send an inexperienced pilot into a critical mission, you have to ask tough questions.

The fact that her social media was wiped clean before her name was even released screams secrecy. It sure looks like someone – whether inside the Army or up in the Biden administration – wanted to control the narrative before the public could demand answers.

This is the same government that talks big about “transparency” while stifling any investigation into potential cover-ups. Was this tragic collision simply a series of unfortunate events? Or does it hide a deeper story about pilot error, political interference, and a dangerous lapse in accountability?

The American people deserve the truth. We deserve answers, not another political cover-up that leaves us in the dark about what really happened that fateful night.
