Pretty sure the land they bought was in an area where a wall wouldn’t go up anyway so it’s nothing more than a publicity stunt.
More like, “Cards Against Americans.”
Guess they never heard of eminent domain????US gov’t can buy it from under them...
Where is the damned Wall. Im tired of waiting. Was it just a stunt to get my vote?
They are against humanity and they don’t like a wall. Hmmm.
Trump should just build the wall around the north of their property, and then cede their land to Mexico. F them.
The lawyers will soak them for every penny they own.....................
“The Fifth Amendment grants the federal government the right to exercise its power of eminent domain, and the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment makes the federal guarantee of just compensation applicable to the states. State governments derive the power to initiate condemnation proceedings from their state constitutions, except North Carolina, which gains its power through statute. The constitutional and statutory provisions require federal, state, and local governments and subdivisions of government to pay an owner for property taken for public use at the time the property is taken.
The power of eminent domain was created to authorize the government or the condemning authority, called the condemnor, to conduct a compulsory sale of property for the common welfare, such as health or safety. Just compensation is required, in order to ease the financial burden incurred by the property owner for the benefit of the public.
Elements of Eminent Domain
To exercise the power of eminent domain, the government must prove that the four elements set forth in the Fifth Amendment are present: (1) private property (2) must be taken (3) for public use (4) and with just compensation. These elements have been interpreted broadly.”
It’s called “Eminent Domain”.
Checkmate.

Simple solution: build the wall such that their plot of land is on the Mexican side. Done.
I want the Wall! And I want the muslim ban that I voted for!!!!!
Phooey, anyway!
This is just a scam to get leftists to part with their money.
It is not a serious effort at anything other than that.
Just build around that land and scede it to mexico...
They love mexico so damned much make the founder live there.
There is a 60ft. easement along the length of the border owned by fedgov for the purpose of security. It is called the Roosevelt Reservation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roosevelt_Reservation
Eminent Domain, meet Stupid Game.
Stupid Game, meet Eminent Domain.
Today’s lesson will be about fools and their money.
Let’s all have a good laugh.
The wall would increase the value of the land in question. The new owner would appreciate not have hordes of invaders trashing his land and property.
Never heard of Eminent Domain I guess. But of course the wall could just go around them and let them protect themselves.
A good case for the use of eminent domain.
Just put up the wall and leave them on the wrong side. Make their investment absolutely worthless.
Brilliant marketing scheme.
they will become rich over it.
Oh, and it’s NOTHING BUT MARKETING. they know they can stop nothing.
