Here's the key--you can expand it on the left side of a desktop browser, or at the bottom of a mobile browser. Click pins for more details about an org's involvement. Sometimes the link opens the Google Maps app, which doesn't show the info well. Copy/paste the link in a browser in that case.

Sorry to hear that. Pasting it into a browser usually seems to work, but there may be some that aren't compatible with it. Here are the AZ companies. If there are any you're specifically curious about, let me know & I'll be happy to reply with the links to their USAspending contract summaries.

Both of these companies have already received tens of millions from DHS this year and are projected to get even more. People Who Think founder Jay Connaughton has ties to Corey Lewandowski, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem's—ahem—"gatekeeper."

The next eye-popping purchase: Nearly $1.5M in Chevy Tahoes. We saw nearly $700k go to cars and customization for ICE's very cool promo video last week, and this week WaPo reported ICE will be spending millions on more of the same.

A government contract summary page from USASpending.gov. It shows a purchase order from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to Hendrick Motorsports LLC for $1.5 million. The contract is labeled “Completed” and covers the procurement of Chevrolet Tahoe vehicles on behalf of DHS’s Office of Asset and Facilities Management. The award amounts are all $1,468,500 (obligated, current, and potential). The page lists NAICS code 551112 (offices of other holding companies) and PSC code 2310 (passenger motor vehicles). Contract dates run from August 15, 2025, to August 21, 2025. Headline from The Washington Post reads, “ICE aims to spend millions on decked-out vehicles for D.C. operation.” Subhead notes the agency is seeking to purchase two dozen SUVs with gold-detailed custom wraps. Below the headline is a photo of the U.S. Capitol. In front of it are two black Immigration and Customs Enforcement vehicles: a GMC SUV on the left and a Ford pickup on the right, both with bold ICE logos, gold accents, and decals reading “Defending the Homeland.” Several people are walking nearby.

Any idea why ICE is purchasing from Hendrick Motors and not a regular dealer (or direct from Chevrolet/GM)?

ICE wrote in contract documents that the Mustangs purchased earlier this month would aid in recruitment “by serving as a bold, high-performance symbol of innovation, strength and modern federal service." A symbol of modern federal service, indeed.

A news excerpt from The Washington Post discussing ICE vehicle purchases tied to Trump’s crime policies. It says ICE sought to spend $695,330 on vehicles and vehicle wrapping to support recruiting, backed by Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill.” Proposed purchases include two Ford Raptors, two GMC Yukon AT4s, and two Ford Mustang GTs. ICE documents state the Mustangs were requested by the White House on August 7, 2025, costing $121,450, described as a high-performance symbol to aid recruitment by showing “innovation, strength and modern federal service.”

Last year, ~1,200 HSI agents supported the Secret Service at the UN General Assembly, according to Congressional testimony. Republicans like Rep. Troy Nehls of Texas were critical of that support. www.congress.gov/event/118th-...

Screenshot of a congressional hearing transcript. Rep. Nehls questions Ms. Berger about ICE sending 1,200 agents to New York City for the U.N. General Assembly, about 25% of their workforce. Nehls expresses concern that this diverts resources from border enforcement, citing drug and human trafficking. He asks whether this assignment supplements the Secret Service. Berger confirms it does. Nehls presses further, asking how many human smuggling or transnational criminal cases HSI expects to investigate at the U.N., suggesting that sending so many agents contradicts HSI’s mission.
