President-elect Trump Seeks Restraining Order as Biden Sells Border Wall Parts for $5
Dec 16, 2024, 04:38 PM
President-elect Donald Trump has called on the Biden administration to halt the sale of unused border wall materials, criticizing the practice as undermining his plans to strengthen the U.S.-Mexico border. Trump is seeking a restraining order to stop the auctions, which have seen materials sold for as little as $5. He expressed concern that the sale of wall components for a fraction of their original cost would result in higher expenses to rebuild the barrier when he takes office. "I'm asking today, Joe Biden, please stop selling the wall. We're gonna use that to create a strong barrier," Trump said. He described the sale as "almost a criminal act," noting that construction costs have doubled due to inflation compared to six years ago. Reports indicate that the Biden administration has been auctioning off sections of the wall for as little as five cents on the dollar.
