Summary
A leaked TSA email suggests funding for bomb-sniffing dogs has been halted under Elon Musk.
The email states that vet visits, kenneling, and food are “put on hold” until further guidance.
TSA deploys over 1,000 canine teams, with training costing $33,000 per dog.
The funding freeze contradicts Trump’s “tough on crime” stance and coincided with the White House celebrating “K9 Veterans Day.”

Ok, first remove any kind of bomb detection from any flight he’s taking. Need to show that he’s serious about saving money

I’m reading this and thinking “this can’t be real”. How did we end up here? I really don’t get it.
He’s basically doing a scream test, you shut off something, and if nobody comes back to you asking why it’s down, you can assume nobody was using it, and you can just leave it shut down. If it was needed, you just spin it back up.
Obviously that’s not a huge issue with computers (although you’ll have a bad time if you do it across the board or with backup systems), but you can’t do that shit to people (or in this case animals).
He’s doing silicon valley stuff to real life, and you just have to be a complete idiot to think that’s a good idea.
I have a idea. We do our own scream test.
Let’s turn his brain off permanently.
And we Don’t bother listening for anyone complaining about it.
It’s the perfect plan.
I prefer Luigi’s method personally. Shoot CEOs until someone cares.
Are you wearing a wire dude?
Are you a Trump supporter dude?
Nope. I just figured the comment was a little close to a call to violence; figured they’re either not in the US, or Fedposting.
Maybe they just don’t give a fuck about making calls to violence, in which case more power to them and good luck out there
Edit: realized you weren’t the person I originally commented on, so I changed the wording to point at the proper subject
Millions of people who voted for Biden in 2020 stayed home in 2024. Republican numbers stayed the same.
By abstaining from voting for Harris, the entire US collectively voted for the worst option.
It started with Gerry Springer, really. We started celebrating the most awful qualities of humanity and normalized them.
I’d say that Springer was influenced by Oprah Winfrey, whose show about abuse, neglect, crime and vice was influenced by her harrowing childhood, a product of racism, and capitalist-induced poverty.
Didn’t he apologize for that and said had he known what was unleashed he would have shut it down?
People in this thread want to blame television which is fucking weird and straight from the 90s. The real issue is every one needs a fucking civics lesson. Half the people don’t even know the intended function of government the other half are arguing about which facts are facts.
I’m mean, not even to mention our society is designed around greed. They dressed it up real nice but end of the day the engine that drives the machine is pure greed.
Maybe its collateral damage from getting rid of drug-sniffing dogs that might narc on him and his friends
Perhaps we take those dogs. When the unruly mobs kick in the mansions of the ultra rich, we let the dogs feed once more.
I would bet that they’re aware of an attaok and opening the doors so that it can happen. They’ve already compromsed the rest of the industry. This is 9/ll all over again.
Yeah, they need something to blame on Canada to get the full support of their idiot population to kill us.
This is literally the plot of Michael Moore’s comedy, Canadian Bacon (1995), starring John Candy. 30 years later, and Republicans are now leading us down a path that even Michael Moore deemed to be so patently absurd that it’d be perfect for a zany satirical comedy.
Holy cow, Michael Moore made Canadian Bacon?? And as late as 1995??
I was surprised when I found that out, too. It’s apparently the only fictional movie he’s made; everything else has been documentaries.
I guess they’ll have to update the Wiki page when it comes true anyway, LOL.
I propose bringing all the hungry canines over to meet Elon. It should be televized.
Legally-speaking, K9 units are considered police officers. “Elon Musk withholds food, housing, and healthcare from over one thousand very handsome police officers” is a much better headline.
That’s very paradoxical. There are no good cops, but these officers are all good boys/girls. Therefore they can’t be police officers.
They can’t be police officers. Dogs aren’t bastards.
Some of them are forced to be though. Very much reminds me of the dog that attacked the officer because it saw him beating a suspect.
Can we amend the saying to “the only good cop is either a dead cop or a dog”
Good boy.
Police dogs very much are. It’s not their fault though unlike their human counterparts
And he hates dogs?
This man is beyond redemption.
Sociopaths don’t understand the role of pets. That’s why Krasnov is the first president in 100 years to not have a pet.
I heard when Elon played the original Wolfenstein he would kill all the dogs and leave the Nazi soldiers alone. He thought the goal was to collect all the scattered treasure to take to Hitler at the end.
How can anyone hate dogs? Afraid? Yeah, I can understand that. Hate? Wow.
Psychopaths usually hate animals. One of the early signs of psychopathy is harming animals.
Kristi Noem must have plans for these dogs that for some reason won’t need food, shelter, or vet care afterwards.
Kristie Noem killer her dog with a bullet and MAGA still loves her. This won’t change smooth brain MAGA but independent thinkers that love dogs will now hate Elon.
The more Elon hate the better. Fuck him.
Waiting for someone to hopefully explain how the title is misleading and the dogs are ok plz
Obviously the dogs’ handlers will continue to care for their dogs. It’s not okay that they might be spending their own money to do so.
Y’all Muricans need to stop this madness. Sincerely, rest of the world.
Stop feeding Elon…
This is so fucking funny, everyday we (the world) get to read news articles about the United States of Idiots.
Disclaimer: I don’t think that all Americans are idiots, many of you are okay.
This man is literally trying to starve dogs to death so he can get a tax cut.
That is a level of evil that Saturday morning cartoons would reject as being over the top.
Yet he already did it weeks ago for actual humans.
Straight up, most Saturday morning cartoon villains would be like “go home, heroes. I’ve got this one, and I don’t want you to see what I’m about to do to him.”
Magneto would be a great addition here.
It’s hard to even see Magneto as a villain anymore. Dude was basically right about everything.
The original inglorious bastard
it would be hilarious for elon to die in a bombing
… in Minecraft
Don’t taint that game with his presence
Yeah, it was tough enough getting Notch’s taint off it.
Things I didn’t need to think about today: Notch’s taint.
No, in real life, so we don’t have to deal with that piece of human garbage anymore.
This isn’t social media controlled by a billionaire, you don’t have to bring this mass social media brainrot.
More like to die from him doing on cocaine. Rich people almost always OD on cocaine and or alcohol, or antidepressants
Is that your Dr Worm? How does someone OD on antidepressants?
You can in fact overdose on antidepressants. It isn’t a common cause of death, but it happens.
Either that or auto asphyxiation when a strangle wank goes wrong
