As long as they are not CTs. Those things can't handle rain nor bird poop.

Also, they quietly changed "Tesla" to electric vehicles to do a hamfisted way of covering their corruption.

And even if it somehow wasn't corruption, half the point of disclosure laws and whatnot is to just avoid even the perception that the decision making process was corrupt.

I expect we'll be hearing from conservatives any minute now.

From the link in the OP.

"The Tesla contract started in the Biden administration "to explore interest from private companies to produce armored electric vehicles," a State Department spokesperson said on Thursday.

Tesla was the only company to express interest in the department's request at the time.

Typically the next step would be "an official solicitation" for vehicle manufacturers to compete for the contract. But now, the solicitation is on hold, according to the State Department spokesperson"

Tesla was the only company to express interest in Biden's proposal.
Trump did not just add Tesla in. They were the only one the whole time.

God that is probably going to be a money pit

Some fleet vehicles don’t have warranties and some of the reliability issues with the CT could be a huge cash cow for Leon

At that point, absolutely nothing said anything was going to be given to Tesla. It was all exploratory. Musk or Trump fan? It's amazing how you can still lie when nothing backs you up.

Quote from article
The Biden administration had asked the agency to “explore interest from private companies to produce armored electric vehicles,” according to the spokesperson.

Biden didn't “request Teslas” they they inquired into purchasing 400 EVs and Tesla was a possible vendor

That’s a major distinction

400M in armored Teslas...... Meanwhile two of my colleagues at US Forest Service (dedicated public servants) studying forest diseases were just unceremoniously canned and told to get out within 2 hours... on Friday afternoon.

Blatantly illegal firings btw - even probationary federal employees have rights.
