So the company that bought it still makes some money.

If it's a legit company that just got lucky and randomly picked, sure. But what are the chances some Dem owns it and funneled the steep discount to themselves to make extra money off of this?

The wall program project manager in April reported that of the Legislature’s $3 billion in funding from previous years, there was only enough left to complete 83 miles. The state has completed 65 miles. Work will continue on segments under construction but no new projects will begin, state officials said.

Texas Facilities Commission Executive Director Mike Novak did not respond to an interview request.

The Texas border wall has been a signature policy achievement touted by Abbott, who launched an expensive border crack down during the Democratic administration of President Joe Biden. He held multiple press events in recent years, touting construction of the 30-foot high wall — which costs about $28 million per mile to build.
