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.

      Is any famous southerner actually from the South? Between Duck Dynasty larping as “backyonder folk” and Larry The Cable Guy doing what I can only call a whiteface minstrel show… I wonder if anybody wealthy besides the Baptist Church and their hired politicians are from the South

        The first people to pop into my mind were Matthew Mccughnahey and this unfit mother.

        And that unfit mother’s brother.

        Oh and this guy. (I think he’s actually from Nashville?)

        To my knowledge they’ve never insisted on flying a confederate flag or working out in a sauna with RFK.
