  1. Just exactly which brand of EV would reddit like to see the government buying? I don’t seem to remember any pushback to 60 years of government fleet contracts with Ford.

  2. Actually this was approved by in December of’24. So is that the fascist you’re referring to?

  3. This was already disproven. Biden administration had placed procurement of armored EVs. But on Feb 13, 2025 the line item was modified to say “Tesla” armored EVs. Either way DOGE announced they cancelled the order. Why are people so upset about finally finding out the nonsense our taxpayer money is being wasted on?

  4. I can’t fucking believe people are defending this. This is blatant corruption, and yet some of you are out here saying it’s no big deal or blaming Biden. We can verify this, and you’re still defending these assholes who are stealing YOUR fucking money. Where the fuck are the Republican who have been screaming about corruption? Blind to it when it’s happening right in front of them just because Trump has an R next to his name and is cheering for Elon? You’re all fucking hypocrites with no actual values.

  5. Elon says they are open to complete transparency as long as if we see something, we say something… On his X platform… (so he can shadow-ban us)…

  6. Voter suppression. This happens because of voter suppression.

    Ignore it. Focus on voter suppression. Fix that and this all goes away.

  7. Downvote away but there’s no scandal here. I think it makes more sense to save the outrage for something real. Credibility is lost calling literally everything fascism. From the AP:

    FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — The State Department had been in talks with Elon Musk’s Tesla company to buy armored electric vehicles, but the plans have been put on hold by the Trump administration after reports emerged about a potential $400 million purchase.

    The Biden administration had tasked the State Department to gather information from potential suppliers to buy these vehicles in September. An official request for bids was to be released in May, according to State Department data from December. But that solicitation is now on hold with no plans to issue it, the State Department said.

    After reports emerged about the plans to buy from Tesla, the State Department changed the data entry on its expected contracts forecast for fiscal year 2025 late Wednesday. The State Department said it should have been entered into the system as a generic “electric vehicle manufacturer,” but there is at least another entry for a different purchase that continues to list a company— German car manufacturer BMW.
