All we need is the specs and prints.

Contractors already know the drill.

Is Governor Abbott ready to tell the SCOTUS to buzz off? Either this or some blue state AG indicting Trump (or both) is going to touch off a real storm. We are less united now than were were in 1859.

It'll take the Harris/Biden Department of Just Us less than 8 hours to find an Osama Obama appointee to overrule this.

I’m sure if they were able to find the contractors who were working on it before, they would have all the contacts for the suppliers who built the sections of wall and other assorted components.

With the abrupt stop of construction, I’m sure there is a decent supply of unused wall components that didn’t get installed sitting in yards around the region.

I’ll imagine the Biden white hut will try to make the claim that you cannot used any of that material because they paid for that wall and to use it is theft and belongs to the federal government.

But will TX be allowed to refuse entry to foreign invaders?

If not, then why have the wall?

He’s scared he won’t be re-elected. This is BS. He won’t end up doing any of it.

Can the federal government force Texas to ban drilling on state lands, because the federal government banned drilling on federal lands?

So why can the federal government stop Texas from constructing a wall on state lands? It's not immigration if the people enter from non-managed border points, so all Texas has to argue is that they are funneling the people to the proper entry points so that the federal agencies tasked with immigration can do their jobs.
