Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick to Buy Border Wall Materials from Biden for Trump at $5 per Segment
Dec 13, 2024, 03:41 AM
The Biden administration is reportedly auctioning off unused materials from the U.S.-Mexico border wall, with sales starting at $5 per segment. Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick has announced plans to purchase these steel bollard wall sections with grout and donate them to the incoming Trump administration, aiming to facilitate the continuation of the border wall project. The materials are being auctioned through GovPlanet, with an estimated half-mile of materials being removed daily. The move has been criticized by Republican lawmakers as an attempt to sabotage President-elect Donald Trump's plans to secure the border.
