Trump Secures December 28 Court Ruling to Use Border Wall Materials Ahead of January 20 Inauguration

Dec 28, 2024, 11:08 PM

President-elect Donald Trump has received a court ruling allowing him to utilize border wall materials as he sees fit, following the Biden Administration's confirmation in court on December 28, 2024, that it agreed to the order. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced this development, which Trump celebrated as a victory against Biden's attempts to sell the materials. The ruling is seen as a significant step in advancing Trump's border security agenda, a cornerstone of his previous administration. Meanwhile, Trump and First Lady Melania Trump hosted a lavish pre-New Year’s Eve party at their Mar-a-Lago estate, where they celebrated the upcoming inauguration, set to take place in 22 days.
