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.”
