"Individually, the reports say little that isn’t already in the news or on social media; but taken as a whole, they depict a government hysteria about the attacks on Tesla, described less like petty crime than some kind of violent insurgency. The entire alerting process, in fact, feels like a government-fueled contagion, a set of reports that create the vague impression of an assault on the American way of life.

What is most glaring about the reports in the immediate sense is that President Trump’s March 21 declaration that violence against Tesla is “terrorism” isn’t being echoed by law enforcement or the national intelligence community. Not yet.

A Joint Intelligence Bulletin produced by the FBI and Department of Homeland Security on March 21 (“Individuals Target Tesla Vehicles and Dealerships Nationwide With Arson, Gunfire and Vandalism”) reveals a sweeping effort by both agencies to “investigate,” “deter” and “disrupt” what it calls “nationwide incidents targeting Tesla electric vehicles” and equipment. But it never once mentions the word ‘terrorism’ to describe the spate of attacks on Tesla vehicles that started in January. (This despite the report being produced by the FBI’s Counterterrorism Division.) Instead, the assessment uses a different word: “vandalism.”"
