The U.S. Army<\/a> is investigating the apparent flyby of that military branch’s Apache helicopters over<\/a> the weekend at the Nashville<\/a>, Tennessee, home of singer Kid Rock<\/a>, a prominent supporter of President Donald Trump<\/a>, an Army spokesman said Monday.<\/p>\n On Saturday, Kid Rock posted videos on his X account<\/a> showing two helicopters hovering and flying close to his home, as he pointed at them, pumped his fist in appreciation and saluted while standing next to a pool, a miniature Statue of Liberty and a sign above his head that said, “Southern White House.”<\/p>\n “This is a level of respect that s— for brains Governor of California will never know,” the singer wrote in one post, referring to Gov. Gavin Newsom, a staunch Democratic critic of Trump. “God Bless America and all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice to defend her.”<\/p>\n Read more CNBC politics coverage<\/p>\n “The Army is aware of a video circulating online that appears to show AH 64 Apache helicopters<\/a> operating in the vicinity of a private residence in the Nashville area,” Army Spokesman Maj.
