‘Residents Will Understand’ Baltimore Mayor Shrugs off $163k SUV Purchase With Tax Payer Money
The SUV only costs about triple the amount of others used by government officials, so what's the problem?!

The Mayor of Baltimore thinks that having taxpayers fund his $163,495 luxury SUV is no big deal. The armored Jeep Grand Wagoneer is the most expensive government-issued vehicle in the history of Maryland. It’s triple the price of vehicles used by other leaders.

Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott laughs about buying a $163,495 SUV at the expense of taxpayers. It costs thousands more than any other executive vehicle in Maryland.

According to Fox Baltimore, Scott purchased the 2025 Jeep Grand Wagoneer for $98,716. Then he purchased $64,779 in upgrades. However, other officials use vehicles that cost between $45,000 to $75,000 without thousands in extra custom and security features.  ...

Scott explains, “I think the residents of Baltimore will understand. The Governor, Comptroller, and county executives all have vehicles.”   ...
Armored? Who does this clown think he is?

And if you dare ask about it, you're a racist, by the way.

Yes, because the residents of Baltimore are soooo affluent ... the city has been soooo gentrified since "The Wire".

I thought it was that annoying cake baker Duff who put Bawlmer, er, Charm City, on the map.  :silly:

I just checked Car Gurus. The Mayor could have gotten a nice red 2024 Grand Cherokee with under 15,000 miles on it for $29,000, and it's already in Baltimore.

NEW: Baltimore mayor Brandon Scott accuses a reporter of being racist for asking him why his taxpayer-funded SUV cost $163,495.   
   
Scott: "A vehicle that was purchased in 2023 is not the same price as 2025, right?... I'm talking!!..."
 
Reporter: "Governor Hogan's car costs $70,000... you didn't answer the question."

Scott: "I did answer the question, just because you didn't get the answer that you wanted... and your racist slant is one thing."

    Tiffany Henyard pulled this off in Dalton, Ill, she's supposedly under FBI investigation.



No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

  • The problem with everything is they try and make it better without realizing the old way is fine.

A Grand Waggoneer?  Can't believe he didn't opt for the Escalade.  Brothers love them a tricked out Caddy.  Someone take his black card away.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott, currently under fire for spending $165k in taxpayer funds on a luxury SUV, is now implicated in a massive corruption scheme after it was revealed his baby momma’s defunct nonprofit received over $100k in taxpayer funds while they were secretly dating — $80k of it coming ONE DAY before they publicly announced their relationship. ...

Mrs. Scott’s nonprofit is delinquent in filing their tax forms, failed to disclose Mrs. Scott’s salary, and was sued and evicted for not paying rent. ...

  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
Here's the problem - he didn't get there by military conquest. He was voted in, and I'm guessing by wide margins.

The only way to get him out now is catching him in criminality and throwing him in jail, if there is a judge in that jurisdiction that will. Which really doesn't matter because they'll will elect someone just like him. These cities have become corrupt third world despotic hellholes run warlord style by the Rat grifter of the day.

These people think they are defiant and clever, think they're going to usher in some kind of Islamic Marxism while getting rid of anyone they don't like, but let's get to the brass tacks. They'll keep screwing around till they collapse and fail, and then people are going to die.

And that will shift the demographics, and suddenly these big cities won't have the influence they used to have, and can be ignored like the little ankle biters they area.

Which isn't pretty, but it's the realpolitik.
The Republic is lost.
