On Bitchute, Pirate Pete says (emphasis added):
Breaking news, this time a Lear jet outside of Philly and I’m not trying to be a conspiracy theorist here but I had to ask ChatGPT at this point, “What are the odds of three planes crashing in roughly a 24-hour period … and it set that number at one in 2.8 trillion. The chances of three planes crashing in a 24-hour period is one in 2.8 trillion - with a t. The chances of a military helicopter hitting a passenger plane, well, that’s a little bit less, that’s only a one in 50 million chance.
Look I’m not trying to point any fingers or say any names but:
Jan 20th: the FAA director was fired
Jan 21st: the air traffic controller hiring freeze went into effect [note that ultimately air traffic controllers were exempted from the freeze]
Jan 22nd: the Aviation Security Advisory Committee was disbanded
Jan 28th: the buyout/retirement demand was sent out to federal employees
Jan 29th: the very first American mid-air collision in 16 years
I don’t know. Could it be related or could it be a D-whatever issue?
(Commenter, Brian, has helpfully supplied what Pirate Pete is referring to by “D-whatever issue”: “he may be expressing some sarcasm about Trump's blaming the most recent crash on DEI.”)
The incidents involving a mid-air collision between a plane and helicopter and a plane crashing into the ground within roughly 24 hours
EDIT: apologies - in my newsletter I put a Wisconsin flight as a third crash in error. Also, a friend has pointed out that the two incidents involved two planes and a helicopter, not three planes, so perhaps the chances of that scenario are not the one in 2.8 trillion claimed - regardless though I think we can accept they’re still rather small.
Potomac River mid-air collision, January 29, 2025
MedJets flight 056, Philadelphia, January 31, 2025
Two mid-air collisions 16 years ago (August and October, 2009)
So two mid-air collisions were recorded 16 years ago in the US, two months apart, one on August 8, 2009 (88, 11) and one on October 29, 2009 (1(0)/11,11).
Now what are the odds of two mid-air collisions within two months of each other and then three aircraft crashing, two of them in a mid-air collision, within roughly 24 hours 16 years later.
I mean, truly astronomical, right?
A cursory look at the Wikipedia entry of our August 8, 2009, mid-air collision between a 6-seat Piper Cherokee Lance and a Eurocopter AS350 carrying five Italian tourists and a pilot in Hoboken does not yield convincing results.

It later transpired that, in acknowledging the instruction to contact Newark, Altman had read back the wrong frequency (127.8 MHz instead of 127.85), an error that the controller did not correct.
After the failure to contact Altman, a radar alert about a possible collision occurred in both the Newark and Teterboro towers. However, the two controllers did not remember seeing or hearing this alert.[9]
While heading south down river, the airplane was seen to be behind the sightseeing helicopter, which was going about half the speed of the airplane. The pilot of another helicopter (who was refueling at the heliport) saw the impending accident, and attempted to warn both the airborne helicopter and the plane by radio, but received no response. At 11:53:14 a.m., the Piper's left wing crashed into the Eurocopter, severing the left wing of the airplane and rotor blades from the helicopter.[13] Most witnesses reported the plane entering a nose dive while spiraling into the river, while the helicopter dropped into the water.[6] The collision occurred at approximately 1,100 ft (340 m) MSL altitude and was caught on tape by an Italian tourist.[14][15] Less than a minute after the collision occurred, the Teterboro controller contacted the Newark tower to inquire about the airplane, and was told that the airplane had not contacted Newark.[9]
Questions
Would an error in radio frequency of 0.05 MHz - which seems minimal to the layperson - make a difference when attempting to make contact?
How credible is it that two controllers did not remember seeing or hearing a radar alert about a possible collision nor the plane or helicopter pilots indicate receiving warning from the pilot of a nearby helicopter?
If the aeroplane was behind the helicopter why didn’t its pilot see it?
If the collision was caught on tape why do we only have an animation of the collision?
If so inclined, readers can determine the credibility of the 29 October, 2009 California mid-air collision involving a Lockheed HC-130H Hercules of the United States Coast Guard and a Bell AH-1 SuperCobra of the U.S. Marine Corps (no survivors among the nine crewmates aboard either aircraft).
My Substack post January 13. Is it a coincidence? Honest, it is - at least, on my side. It was prompted by the fake Korean Jeju passenger airliner crash on 29 December. Whether there’s any connection between that crash and the recent US crashes I will let the reader decide. 😎
Friends who keep up to date with "news" often tell me that something must be so because it is all over the media, with much fresh footage and commentary.
Now, at the risk of losing friends, I tell them something is staged, controlled or totally invented BECAUSE it is all over the media with much fresh footage and commentary. (Whoops, there goes another friend.)
Sometimes the media reveals, like when Trump emerged from his crouch with a neatly applied NASA snake tongue down his cheek (and an ear that was just kinda mussed). But, really, they can skip the reveals. If it bleeds and leads...me no heed!
Your point number three strikes me as the most blindingly effing obvious one - like 'how come pilots suddenly go blind as bats when there are other aircraft in the vicinity?' Like wtf were they doing? Making coffee? Charades? Bratting on X (formerly Twitter)?! Havin' a laugh doxxing some other plane?
Watching Airplane movies?
If you want a reason for staging a crash at this point, there's the fact I - coincidentally - just read this morning about it being related to 'DEI employment practices' - and how it's given Trump et al the excuse they need to criticise and stop a load of DEI employment practices. Which is pretty much akin to saying 'these non-white people aren't as intelligent as us whities, so we have to stop employing them. Likewise all these LGBT people - I mean, they're stupid too, right? And entirely unqualified.' So whilst there is a disguised racism there, if DEI really does mean employing unqualified, or underqualified people, and consciously not hiring qualified people because they're white, then I would absolutely agree that it's a serious problem (positive discrimination etc. - which I hate). But is this really the case, or is this all just another aspect of the manufactured 'culture war' designed not just to divide & conquer but to foster hatred of minority social groups? And thus insidiously change people's psychology so that 'hatred of the other' becomes 'normalised'?
There is, after all, a very sordid history of intelligence services subversive infiltration of activist groups (F section) designed to make the general public hate them. Which in turn causes a further reaction amongst the activists, which in turn... and so on. So you end up with fascists on one side, and on the other, DEI-activists gone mad.
The entire thing, on both sides, is entirely manufactured and, yeah - staged. And all the while, ordinary members of minority groups get caught in the middle and used and abused when all they want is to be left alone, treated with respect, have the same equitable opportunities as everyone else, and to just be able to get on with their lives without being subjected to such abusive bigotry.
There's some real fucking dystopian evil in this world. That's for sure.
I was thinking just yesterday about whatever happened to spontaneous human combustion, and how I wish the Goddess would bring it back. But only apply it to evil monsters. Spontaneous monster combustion. That's the ticket.
I need a drink.
