U.S. Army officials have ordered an investigation into the activities of two AH-64 Apache attack helicopters that flew over Saturday’s “No Kings” protest in downtown Nashville, then engaged in low-altitude maneuvers near the home of Kid Rock just north of the city.

The initial investigation appears to be focused, for now, on the maneuvers at the entertainer’s so-called “Southern White House” in the Nashville suburb of Whites Creek.

“Fort Campbell leadership is aware of a video circulating on social media depicting AH-64 Apache helicopters operating in the vicinity of a private residence associated with Mr. Robert Ritchie (also known as ‘Kid Rock’),” said a statement by Maj. Jonathon Bless, public affairs officer for the 101st Airborne Division.

    Kid Rock’s home is a 27,000-square-foot mansion patterned after the White House.

      The White House is a 55,000 square foot mansion patterned after Leinster House. Also inhabited by a long succession of fucking losers.

      I’m fairly certain the primary reason Trump ran for president is that people kept saying he was a loser who would never be president. Particularly Barack Obama. So ya know, I’m just saying, don’t be surprised.

        I believe it was due to being a racist and a child rapist. Some people find those traits attractive.

        Birth?

        He’s a privileged kid, the Ritchies owned local car dealerships and had tons of money.

        He’s honestly perfect as a Donald Trump fan. He’s got generational money but he’s too stupid to understand he hasn’t actually earned anything himself.
