Trump lied about $400B Biden/Tesla purchase, Changed Docs

But NPR has obtained a State Department document detailing that Biden's State Department planned to spend just $483,000 in the 2025 fiscal year on buying electric vehicles and $3 million for supporting equipment, like charging stations. It represented less than 1% of the hundreds of millions of dollars likely destined for Tesla vehicles after the Trump administration quietly revised a State Department procurement document.

The document claims it was originally published in December, at the end of then-President Joe Biden's term, but it does not appear in the Internet Archive for that month.

Comments

The Trump admin changed the document and tried to blame Biden. They got caught and now are hiding it and refusing to answer any questions.

"Biden's State Department planned to spend just $483,000"

From $483,000 to $483,000,000,000?

Sure sounds like Trump just tacked on six zeros.

That is just like Trump. Like when he Sharpied in the Hurricane path!

Is there anything the mush-brained pedo doesn't lie about?

No, which is why people who believe him are complete idiots.
