The Department of Homeland Security announced that the Biden administration leveraged sweeping executive power to waive 26 federal laws in South Texas.
A wall demonstrably does not work along a largely unpatrolled, continuously compromised border. Trump proved that by building walls that kept nobody out and quickly fell apart or ran out of funding. I am very curious what the reasoning behind this is. I can't imagine the impotence of such a deterrent measures up to its cost.
It's probably just a political play to try and take some ammo away from fox/conservatives who keep crying about the border. Realistically it will be exactly like Trumps 400 miles of wall that do nothing. But w/e politics is made to spend our money on useless stuff
Being pro-israel, receiving money from AIPAC is bipartisan and evil. I'm not really interested in what party is "the most pro-israel." I am merely pointing out that the rhetoric condemning trumps border wall, by the current president and other members of the democratic party was obviously bullshit especially considering the Israel has been doing the same for much longer then Trump.
According to Democrats, border wall construction is a terrible solution to the problem. Maybe in limited circumstances? Can't say if this is good or not, but my gut says it's pointless, just like Trump's wall.
I mean walls work, and have for thousands of years. But if you as a party are aginst walls, it's really easy for the president to NOT build a wall. So if you are going to condemn Trumps wall before you are president, then why would you build a wall while you are president?
I don't want to get into an argument about why an enormous border wall covering our entire southern border that mexico pays for won't fix our illegal entry problem.
As to why they built new wall? I have no idea. Maybe Biden realized he was wrong and some wall in some places helps. Maybe there was some bureaucratic reason it got built without him knowing or approving. Edit: read the article again, second reason doesn't seem likely
If you want to see democrats losing their minds over this, you won't. Most people ignore these things from their own side. Others see it but will give him a pass because this likely isn't an overall shift in strategy towards a giant wall project
