Texas AG Ken Paxton Blocks Biden from Disposing of Border Wall Materials for 30 Days Ahead of Trump's Inauguration
Dec 28, 2024, 05:19 PM
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced that he has successfully blocked the Biden administration from disposing of border wall materials before President-elect Donald Trump takes office. A federal judge ordered the Biden administration to cease selling off these materials, which had been put up for auction at low prices, including some for as little as $5. The Biden administration agreed to the court order, which prevents further sales for the next 30 days, allowing Trump to potentially utilize the materials. Paxton emphasized that this action is part of a broader effort to hold the Biden administration accountable for what he termed illegal actions undermining national border security. Additionally, it was reported that a company that previously purchased border wall materials from the Biden administration has offered to return them for the same price they paid, further supporting Trump's border security plans.
