Just two months ago, we were running at two miles per week. Last week five miles was completed.
The biggest (by far) contract awards are being prepared now. $5 billion is on hand, and over $7 billion more is likely coming available soon.

Thank you for the updates.
The future of our nation relies on securing the border and restoring the rule of law.
Major interior enforcement is needed.
We have a lot of bailing to do once we stop the deluge.
border wall is a no brainer finacially-
$25 Billion for the wall
Illegals cost our country over $600 Billion Dollars every single year- build the wall, kick out illegals no matter how much it costs to do so- and we will be saving hundreds of billions of dollars every single year-
thanx for the update beaubo.
PS. last week I posted a question to you re: spec of private section of wall in mission. “does it meet gummit specs” for the rest of the wall??
DoD is currently reviewing a request to fund 270 additional miles. That review is scheduled to complete this Friday, 31 January.
It seems quite likely that this will be approved. Along with some other re-purposed money (likely Treasury Department Asset Forfeiture funds), many more miles will be added to these charts in the coming weeks - but these official weekly numbers from the Border Patrol won’t include them until the money is formally made available.
Bottom line: There are really 885 miles now in the works (including those completed during the Trump Administration).
Thanks Passed it on.
Moving right along.
Thanks for your reality updates, instead of the insane ranting that nothing is being done.
“Just two months ago, we were running at two miles per week. Last week five miles was completed.”
Correction: Last week (20-24 Jan) four miles were completed. The week prior, (13-17 Jan) five miles were completed.
I was trying to point out that we have apparently jumped up to a higher rate of production during January, as more crews have started work. That 4-5 miles per week seems to be the new normal.
We are on track for a bigger increase in the rate of construction as this year progresses, but we have already seen it significantly occurring over the last few weeks.
Off to the races...
Someone on another thread brought up the fake news story by MSN today about part of the wall falling down. It’s clearly old wall. They posted it to make us all aware of the bovine scat flying around.
Anyway, I was wondering if there are any specs available on the wall panels going in. I read that originally that the panels were to go six feet underground. Has that design specification been fulfilled?
