The U.S. Army has ordered an investigation into singer Kid Rock's actions in a video he posted showing him saluting two military helicopters near his home in Nashville. The incident was part of an effort to mock California Governor Gavin Newsom, who regularly trolls high-profile conservatives on X. The military leaders at Fort Campbell are investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident. The helicopters reportedly had previously flown over a "No Kings" protest in downtown Nashville before flying to Kid Rock’s residence the same day.
