In the late evening hours of Jan. 29, a U.S. Army helicopter collided with a descending American Airlines passenger plane over the Potomac River en route to the Reagan National Airport in Washington, D.C. There were no survivors.

The National Transportation Safety Board will only update the press about the plane crashes in Washington, DC and Philadelphia on X — not over email, as reported earlier by The Desk. The agency announced on Saturday that it will use its @NTSB_Newsroom account to share ”news conferences or other investigative information.“

The head of America’s aviation safety authority had resigned just 10 days before Wednesday’s air disaster, leaving the agency leaderless after Elon Musk had demanded he step down.

Following the devastating plane crash near Washington, D.C., a year-old Tweet from Elon Musk resurfaced, demonstrating he was already planning far in advance to blame a potential aviation disaster on DEI.
