They 'Don't Give a S*** About Us': The Early Effects of Joe Biden Halting Border Wall Construction

US-MEXICAN BORDER — "I'm not going to get in trouble am I? Oh wait, it's my last day...so what are they going to do, fire me?" one construction worker told me on Thursday while we climbed into his vehicle next to the border wall system so I could get a tour of what was being built before President Joe Biden issued an executive order halting further construction.

Biden signed the executive order to fulfill his campaign promise of stopping the construction of the new border wall system that was being implemented by former President Donald Trump's administration. While some areas on the southwest border saw a whole new wall being put in place where none existed before, the new wall system also replaced old barriers that were laughably easy to get over, such as old fencing in the El Paso Sector.

The construction crew was working hard to demobilize and bring their equipment, such as excavators and bulldozers, out of the area as soon as possible in order to comply with the executive order. I was told the crew was about two months away from completing the project they had been working on, which was now over with the quick signing of a pen.

Americans are too effing stupid to realize government has been bringing in their replacements for decades.

What in hell did they think all these zillions of foreigners and illegals were all about?

For every construction job lost by stopping the border wall construction, at least 1000 more jobs will be lost to illegal alien labor.

But those tweets!

Why hasn’t a lawsuit been brought in Federal Court for breach of contract, and then get a Judge to block the EO??

They only care about remaining in power whether Americans or illegal aliens do it.

The US Government can cancel any contract for its own convenience, without penalty.

If only the Republicans would resist the take down of the wall just a fraction of what the Democrats did to prevent putting it up . . .

So they are making people test 3 days before you leave to go out of country and prove negative COVID TEST (like want to fly to Jamawica). But, Biden is OK with a stroke of a pen to not demand that the illegals show proof of COVID VACCINE, TESTING, ETC before they are allowed to come into country. Not required to be housed for 10-14 days to make sure they didn’t break out with COVID. Insane

Maybe Biden's working with the Chinese to kill off the people in California - - so the Chinese can move into that state...

OR more likely it's just that Biden hates the American people and NONE of his white liberal elite friends hang out with diseased illegals anyhow. And by the time they hire these folks for their factories there will be so many unemployed Americans that even if they do infect and kill other workers - it won't matter.

Why? Why doesn't it matter?

Because they hate natural born Americans and it's entertaining for them to pit us against each other. Besides, digging graves is a job... and Biden said he'd make jobs... So bring the diseased illegals in... watch Americans cry over their dead.

Amazing that the Karens’ haven’t demanded his scalp because these illegals don’t wear masks and keep 6’ apart.

Yeah, I wonder if the Karen’s would dare go after the illegals swarming into their community without masks. Pffft, doubt it.

It will be interesting to see what the Karens do when their communities/stores are loaded up with no mask wearing illegals.

Makes one wonder how Canada will treat their rush of illegals:

So they/Canada are making people test 3 days before you leave to go out of country and prove negative COVID TEST (like want to fly to Jamawica).

To fight back I think that anti-illegal immigration groups should buy time on central American radio warning people about the dangers of migration, don’t believe the promises of the human traffickers etc. This is a affordable way that we can fight back.
