We still believed in sovereignty and securing our Borders when Donald Trump was President. The equipment was purchased to build a Border Wall, the materials were delivered, and the contracts were signed. Illegal Border crossings were at an all-time low, and the Border Patrol and ICE Agents were respected. Then came January 20, 2021, and President Joe Biden took office and began to dismantle America. One of the first actions by President Biden was to stop the construction of the Wall and cancel the signed contracts. The materials were stored in the Texas Desert to rot, and the locks were taken off the locks to open the floodgates of millions of illegal immigrants. On his first day, President Biden canceled our sovereignty and dashed the future hopes of most Americans.

Texas Governor Abbott has been evaluating all possibilities to ease the pressure and danger of illegal immigration on his state and residents. One of his options was to purchase the abandoned equipment from the Federal Government and for Texas to complete the Wall. It seemed like a good idea for all. The equipment would be used. The Federal government would recoup their expense, and the Border would be recovered. To which the President cried out, Not so fast there, folks. I’m having a flea market sale this weekend and selling all that surplus material.

The House of Representatives and the State of Texas are working on a transfer of the equipment and Texas cash so Texas can resume the Wall construction. Biden is selling off the abandoned fence components for pennies on the dollar as a preemptive move. If the material disappears, then no entity will be building the Wall, which is precisely what Biden and the Democrats want. The geographical Border states are under attack, and they have the right, and the obligation, to protect their territory and people.

One of the tools used by Governor Abbott is the floating fences running down the middle of the Rio Grande. These large armored rubber “balls” create a barrier above and below the surface, making them very effective in preventing illegal river crossings. These effectively prevent illegals from physically touching Texas/United States land. This tool works for Texas, so the Biden Administration is suing Texas for illegally blocking territorial waters. Texas must stop using this floating barrier and remove all existing sections if successful.

Can it be any clearer that Joe Biden and most Democrats do not want a secure Border or any obstacles preventing illegals from entering the United States? Like the bogus Inflation and Employment numbers, Joe Biden is manipulating the Immigration numbers. Biden claims there has been an enormous drop in crossings since the death of Title 42. It is a lie. The Biden Administration implemented a phone app that migrants could use to register before they reach the Border. Anyone who successfully uses the app is given unrestrained entry and is not included in the illegal entry count. They are still entering our country. They are just not counted in this sham former Southern Border.

Cities and states impacted by Biden’s immigration policies must band together and sue the President and the Federal Government for not protecting America’s Border and damages for the billions of dollars cities and states are spending to house and educate illegal immigrants landing in their area. The legal path is the only way to divert Biden’s effort to saturate our country with unvetted, unchecked, and unvaccinated people worldwide.
