An American Airlines jet carrying sixty passengers and four crew members collided with an Army helicopter that apparently flew into its path as it was landing at Ronald Reagan National Airport last night. Officials do not believe there were any survivors of the deadliest US air crash in nearly twenty-four years.

The plane was flying from Wichita, Kansas, to Washington, DC. Kansas Sen. Roger Marshall said the tragedy “can only be described as nothing short of a nightmare.” President Trump stated that he had been “fully briefed on the terrible accident” and added, “May God Bless their souls.”

Sen. Marshall agreed: “My prayer is that God wraps his arms around each and every victim and that he continues to be with their families.”

But if you’re like me, a prayer like that at a time like this can be hard to pray.
