Amid Musk’s DOGE ‘cost cutting spree’ BS, the State Department may buy $400M worth of armored Teslas.
The procurement data includes one line item for “Armored Tesla (Production Units)” for fiscal year 2025 with a contract length of five years.

This is my message to Texas Governor Greg Abbott who has announced flags will be raised to full mast during the inauguration. As a resident of Texas, I want the governor to represent all of us.

I don't know if the LA fire department is properly funded or not but the claim that the city cut its budget last year — which is circulating widely on the right — is false.
As Politico notes, the budget actually INCREASED by $50 million. A portion of the funding was approved in a separate bill.
