Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has successfully blocked the Biden administration from disposing of any further border wall materials before President-elect Donald Trump takes office. This action follows a hearing before a federal judge where the Biden administration agreed to an order preventing the disposal of border wall materials for the next 30 days. This order will allow President Trump to utilize the materials as he sees fit upon taking office. The court also demanded documentation to ensure compliance with a previous injunction that required the Biden administration to use statutorily obligated funds for border wall construction. Paxton emphasized that this move is part of ongoing efforts to hold the Biden administration accountable for what he describes as attempts to undermine border security and thwart Trump's immigration agenda.
