The democrats really know how to waste money stop something sell off the parts then start building it again with new more expensive parts

That may have been their plan all along.

Were the wall materials a giant laundry for democrats and their supporters?

Just a few months ago they were sold off as surplus for pennies on the dollar.

Now they are being bought back at top dollar.

Per the other posters, it will be a long time before a single panel goes up. So are the rate leaders of NY, IL, MA, be stupid enough to fall for this publicity stunt? Not likely. Can they sell this to the general public as a concrete step when, at the same time they’re saying they’re only doing it because they’re required by law, and it won’t work? I think that’s going to be a tough sell, since there will be no lessening of the invasion. Mentally ill, I’ll grant you, but allow my analysis of stupid and incoherent as well

He's not telling you what's really going on.

When Title 42 was ready to expire, the Republican House with McCarthy as speaker, passed "SECURE THE BORDER ACT'...with help from the Dems. It's in the Senate now.

As soon as it was passed by the House, the Whitehouse, in they're arrogance said Biden would never sign it.

So my guess is that the Senate has a good chance of passing it with minor adjustments and it would go to the Mouse with the Pen. Rather than that happening, he's doing it this way.

I'll post two links; the Letter from Joe...and the Proposed Law itself.

Makes sense, makes them all look good even though he will not sign it anyhow. Then it will be buried and forgotten.

What it does is tell the Dem Senators who I believe would help in passing it...to NOT vote for it...cuz I'll do this instead.

But the SECURE THE BORDER ACT is MUCH MORE than the wall and this deportation garbage which is unlikely to happen.

I think the control is to Schumer...and whether he ever brings it up for a vote.

I hope the Republicans will keep on pushing this bill.

I didn’t vote “for” trump in 2016. I voted “against” Hillary.

And I’ll vote against the Democrat this time, whoever runs. The only one I remotely like is Trump because he is not a politician, nor, IMO, a member of the Uniparty.

Too bad the Biden Administration sold the material we already bought for a loss of millions. Now he get to buy material from contractor for millions again. Nothing like buying stuff twice.

Although I’m not solidly behind Trump, I realize he is the imperfect vessel to to do battle with the Democrats. You can add Ken Paxton to that very exclusive list.

Thanks to redistricting, I now live in a 75% Democrat district. H1Bs from India have become a reliable source of votes for the Democrats. I see no independent thought from South Asians.

The Secure the Border Act calls for 900 miles of wall....Biden is giving us 20 miles...what a joke.

I think about 450 miles were completed under Trump.

“Biden is giving us 20 miles”

Still the problem of soon they will actually work on it.

Which just proves the point: Multiculturalism is poison and death to a nation.

Mexico has Mr Biden by the cojones. Biden’s deputies are forced into offering multiple $$$$$ concessions to Mexican President Andres Manuel López Obrador.

A nervous Biden hopes his bribes and payoffs will convince Obrador to conceal the huge and unpopular flow of illegal migrants into the US during the 2024 campaign season.

Obrador has the power to embarrass Biden during the 2024 campaign with 24/7 televised stampedes of migrants — such as the September 2021 rush of 15,000 Haitians at Del Rio, Texas.

President Trump opined, “The government of Mexico views their control over immigration as a bargaining chip in any conversation they have with the Biden govt.”

Because of catastrophic Biden screwups, the US can no longer act from a position of strength.

Mexico’s Marxist leaning govt is reveling in its new found strength over Biden’s America. It can now demand big concessions from the US, while pocketing cash from the NGOs that clueless Biden swarmed into the country to facilitate the movement of illegals.
