I read the Israeli company that built their wall was interested. If no American companies bid, we can go that route, as long as they hire Americans.
The timeline is amazing. You’d think it wasn’t a government project... luckily Congress isn’t involved or it would take years/never get done.
we don’t have any more time to waste.
LOL, I would love to be involved. Let me search my couch and chairs for money and get back to you.
Excellent post.
I wish somebody would bid $1 and get volunteers to work on it. I’d take 2 weeks vacation and work on it for free and I bet a lot of other conservatives would do the same.
I realize there would be a cost in materials, etc. But you get the general idea.
I actually think it would be better to have the wall built in several sections with several different designs.
For one thing, the terrain is not identical all the way across. In some places, the builders will have to deal with water. In the rest of the border, I’m sure there are differences in geology (sand vs. rock, for example).
The other and more important reason I’d like to see multiple designs is that after the wall is built, it will be easier to see which sections were performing well and which ones were not. The underperforming sections could be augmented/changed to incorporate the winning features of the high performing sections.
Even the best sections might be improved with ideas taken from the other sections.
Just like the Navy doesn’t have a single type of ship, I think the wall should not be identical along its entire length.
JMO. YMMV.
Best FReegards.
GMTA.
I think there are a LOT of us who would do this.
What a great FR meet and greet that would be! Fun and a pro-America mission all rolled into one.
Oh, I did not say a court injunction could not stop it. I am just explaining how the Federal fast track Design/Build works.
You are certainly correct that it will not be popular with the leftists.

Very good. Thanks for your explanations.
It’s always nice to have someone here with some inside knowledge on these things. We’re not all going to understand the dynamics of such things, and you’re helping a lot.
Appreciate it.
Thanks again. That all makes sense, but if you asked me I wouldn’t have been able to lay it all out like that. Nice...
As for the sniper fire, that had been a concern of mine as well.
We may very well see troops on the border in the short term, if this does take a turn for the worse.
There are a lot of evil forces that aren’t going to like that wall at all.
I sure hope it’s a massive wall 40-60’.
I wouldn’t mind seeing a two lane road on top.
I’ve got an extra $7 right now... “:^)
I can understand your point, and that doesn’t sound unreasoned at all to me.
The important thing is we’re getting a wall.
Hurray!
It all adds up!!!
Isn’t Congress involved in voting a bill for the money. If not, where is the money actually coming from???
