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.”

      Yeah, obviously there’s more context to it. You only use it as a last resort, after you checked documentation and asked everyone else if they know. Musk decided to just pull random servers out of racks after he fired everyone that could’ve told them what they were for.
