The Biden administration has paved the way for the construction of a new wall along the southern border in Texas by waiving more than a dozen federal laws in a stark reversal of its previous stance on the physical barrier.
The Department of Homeland Security announced the plan to bypass long drawn-out environmental reviews in order to expedite border wall construction in Starr County, TX as the administration struggles to handle an ongoing migrant crisis that has strained local and federal resources.
The area where construction is planned has seen “high illegal entry,” according to authorities.
“There is presently an acute and immediate need to construct physical barriers and roads in the vicinity of the border of the United States in order to prevent unlawful entries into the United States in the project areas,” Alejandro Mayorkas, the DHS secretary, said in a notice posted on the US Federal Registry.
The Democratic administration is picking up where former President Donald Trump left off.
One of Trump’s biggest campaign promises was to build a wall along the US-Mexico border and his administration constructed about 450 miles of border barriers between 2017 and January 2021.

See we told you. Bye-done will turn on border crossers. No one is safe here. Don’t vote for back-stabbers. They promise good things, only if it empowers them.
The mayors probably threatened they wouldn’t put the fraud machines in their cities to work for Biden unless he did something.
so, the border is NOT secure...got it.
Give this retarded loser six months and he’ll be campaigning for president wearing a MAGA hat.

Just another Bugsy Biden snow job.
Why bother the damage is done why not massive deporting if you want to do something useful.
Didn’t they recently sell the remaining wall components for pennies on the dollar? This administration has perfected the art of wasting money.
Talk of the wall
Is all I beleive
till I see it,
it’s JUST talk.
If some is built there will probably be an environmental wildlife passage tunnel under it.
pennies on the dollar?

And who ever bought it will sell it back at an astronomical price.

the other day, when biteme suggested he’d found a unique way to fund Ukraine, my suspicion was that it would involve the border wall. “We’ll fund the wall, but that funding must include zeeperfunding”. It’s only fair, the might say, that UK have a method to keep out the Russians, might be the logic used. I now suspect this is the groundwork for just such a plan, however, watch how he later hamstrings the wall through other nefarious tricks.
We’ll see if this comes true
Of course not a single angstrom of wall will be built but still Biden will proclaim he is the real border security president as he shuffles his way to a second term.
The liberals are flying them in from their own countries. They don’t even have to walk in anymore
The Democrats knew that President Trump was within his emergency power to use the laws to divert funding to build the wall, but they took him to court anyway to delay his progress. The Supreme Court ultimately sided with Trump, but the Democrats succeeded in delaying the wall.
Now we see the fruits of their labors when the LAAP-dog media keeps reporting that "Trump only built 49 miles of border wall."
Biden, on the other hand, isn't even attempting to justify using existing laws; he's waiving existing laws by edict and expecting everyone to just let him do it.
Biden is effectively "canceling" Congress by unilaterally declaring duly passed laws as no longer in effect instead of working with Congress to repeal those laws. And yet, it was President Trump whom the LAAP-dog media called a dictator.

What is the nypost article that this photo comes from?
It was found on Google images... but this appears to be the article that it came from. https://nypost.com/2023/08/24/border-gates-in-arizona-remain-open-letting-in-thousands/
as they did for trump, will the dems vote against funding the wall?
This announcement is just for the election season. No wall will be built. Remember that Biden has been selling the stacks of supplies.
I have a feeling at least half of the political disagreements is not based on ideology but based on tribalism.
I’m sure a lot of the pro-face mask people would have called it fascism had Trump ordered a face mask mandate.
