There's rumor that it might have been a VH-60N White Hawk, one of the "Marine One" POTUS transports.

Le Epic Helicopter ride 42069

so the wiki page is showing the call sign as "PAT25" [sourced from a police scanner], which apparently means “priority air transport", and from a 4yo reddit post is "used by all branches carrying VIPs and is usually is followed by the tailnumber"

there's a pdf of call signs that also contains:

PAT US Army Priority Air Transport (Andrews AFB)

so could have been some fed VIP on that helicopter

e: news mega poster is saying it took off from CIA headquarters based on tracking data cheer
