This video has DHS personnel standing next to a MRAPS vehicle with Department of Homeland Security painted on the door and then goes on to explain that it is to be used for serving high risk warrants. Sounds like your info is incorrect or incomplete LGF!

Also, different departments purchase equipment through other departments quite often, especially military grade arms and vehicles for law enforcement.

And don’t discredit the info because some people believe in conspiracies. This looks to me like a very real threat - the increased militarization of Domestic Law enforcement (not to take over the country but) to enjoy new toys to play with (ie to make busts for non-violent drug offenses!)
